[00:09] ---
    It's the tower you were talking about!
[00:13] ---
    That's so cool!
[00:15] ---
    Right, guys?
[00:19] ---
    Yo!

SIGN    Episode 2: Strange Bedfellows
[01:57] ---
    I'm Kinzo Shima,
    envoy from the Kyoto field office.
[02:01] ---
    It's a pleasure to meet you!
[02:04] ---
    Dang it, Kin. You and that stupid routine...
    Please don't let anyone figure out we're related.
[02:09] ---
    I'm taking you to where
     you guys will be staying.
[02:12] ---
    Once you're settled in,
    we'll have you assist with Temptaint victims.
[02:17] ---
    So thanks in advance!
[02:23] ---
    Rin! Look at that! Look!
[02:27] ---
    Man, kill me.
    Somebody, just kill me now...
[02:34] ---
    And here we are.
[02:38] ---
    - Thank you for coming.
    - Thank you for coming.
[02:40] ---
    Right this way, please.
[02:42] ---
    It's Bon!
[02:44] ---
    - You're right!
    - Bon, welcome back!
[02:47] ---
    I can't believe you've come back!
[02:48] ---
    Hey! This ain't a personal home visit!
[02:50] ---
    Bon! Sorry for not saying hi earlier!
    I didn't see you!
[02:54] ---
    Wow, what a happy occasion!
[02:57] ---
    - Ma'am!
    - Listen, dammit!
[03:02] ---
    Ryuji!
[03:06] ---
    You...
[03:10] ---
    You went and dyed your hair!
[03:13] ---
    You lookin' to become a rooster
    in the future or something?
[03:16] ---
    Th-This is to motivate me!
[03:19] ---
    Motivation, my foot!
[03:21] ---
    I won't stand for it!
[03:22] ---
    I knew she'd bring up the hair!
[03:25] ---
    Um, what?
[03:28] ---
    Oh, where are my manners?
[03:31] ---
    It's nice to meet you.
    I'm Ryuji's mother.
[03:34] ---
    Thank you for looking after our Bon.
[03:38] ---
    You're Suguro's mom?
    I always assumed you'd be more—
[03:43] ---
    Oh, this is Bon's family home.
[03:46] ---
    I thought Suguro's family home
    was a bankrupt temple.
[03:49] ---
    The temple couldn't make ends meet anymore,
    so I took over my family's inn.
[03:56] ---
    I'd always wondered why they
    kept calling him "Bon"!
[03:58] ---
    He's the bon-bon (young master) of an inn!
[04:00] ---
    I'm standing right here, Kamiki!
[04:03] ---
    Thank you for putting us up.
[04:05] ---
    Think nothing of it!
[04:06] ---
    We appreciate the continued patronage
    of the Order of the True Cross.
[04:10] ---
    We'll head straight out to the field office
    to provide assistance,
[04:14] ---
    but I'll leave half of our Doctors here,
    so please use them to treat Temptaint victims.
[04:18] ---
    Thank you very much.
[04:20] ---
    Suguro, Miwa, Shima.
[04:22] ---
    This is your first visit home in a while,
    so go say hello to your families.
[04:26] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[04:27] ---
    Moriyama, Kamiki, and Okumura,
    you'll help with the injured.
[04:30] ---
    That's all. Dismissed.
[04:32] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[04:34] ---
    Hey! Follow me, kids!
[04:38] ---
    There's so many...
[04:40] ---
    There's another 15 or so
    in the guest house out back.
[04:43] ---
    Okay, here's what I want you
    to do for now.
[04:46] ---
    They're making an herbal tea antidote
    in the kitchen, so go hand it out.
[04:49] ---
    Also, replace any empty drip bags, all right?
[04:51] ---
    Yes, sir!
[04:55] ---
    Hang on.
[04:56] ---
    Not you, Okumura.
[04:58] ---
    What do you want me to do?
[05:01] ---
    Hm, let me think...
[05:03] ---
    What can you do?
    Go pick up... something.
[05:07] ---
    Like what?
[05:09] ---
    Trash, I guess?
[05:13] ---
    Yaozo, we're coming in.
[05:19] ---
    Bon!
[05:22] ---
    Dad!
[05:23] ---
    Dad, are you okay?
[05:26] ---
    Yes...
[05:27] ---
    Yaozo, you don't have to sit up!
[05:30] ---
    Come on, it's not that serious.
[05:33] ---
    Some field office chief I am, stuck in bed.
[05:36] ---
    I need to get back to work
    as soon as possible.
[05:39] ---
    Is everyone this hurt?
[05:41] ---
    It's all right.
    They're expected to make a full recovery.
[05:45] ---
    I see. That's good to hear.
[05:47] ---
    I'm glad to see you're all right.
[05:50] ---
    Yeah, thanks to these guys.
[05:52] ---
    Konekomaru.
[05:54] ---
    I'm impressed you kept Bon safe.
    You're a tough kid.
[05:58] ---
    No! I didn't do anything of the sort!
    All I did was run around in a panic.
[06:03] ---
    Dad! Dad! I put my life on the line, too!
[06:06] ---
    All you did was dye your hair pink!
[06:09] ---
    I didn't entrust you with my k'rik
    so you could go and dye your hair pink!
[06:14] ---
    Hey, I did my best, too!
[06:17] ---
    Shima also ran around in a panic
    as best he could.
[06:20] ---
    Koneko, that's not helping.
[06:23] ---
    My dad...
[06:25] ---
    My dad, is he okay?
[06:27] ---
    The Master got caught in the attack
    just as he arrived at the field office,
[06:32] ---
    but he wasn't hurt,
    thank goodness, so don't worry.
[06:35] ---
    Where is he now?
[06:37] ---
    Good question.
[06:38] ---
    He goes back to the temple every day,
    but who knows? He doesn't carry a cell phone.
[06:44] ---
    Where is he?
[06:45] ---
    I got a bone to pick
    with that chrome dome!
[06:51] ---
    Hey! You there!
[06:54] ---
    Could you give me a hand?
[06:59] ---
    Watermelons!
[07:00] ---
    Those look so good!
[07:03] ---
    They're for the injured.
    Can you slice them up and hand them out?
[07:07] ---
    You can have a slice, too.
[07:08] ---
    Will do! I'll slice and dice them!
[07:15] ---
    This guy reeks of booze.
[07:20] ---
    Isn't it a little early to hit the bottle, Pops?
    Some priest you are...
[07:24] ---
    Uh-oh. You found me out, huh?
[07:26] ---
    It's so hot I couldn't help myself.
[07:33] ---
    Talk about a degenerate priest...
    You're just like my Dad.
[07:38] ---
    I like you, kid.
[07:40] ---
    What's your name?
[07:44] ---
    Rin Okumura.
[07:48] ---
    Oh... So you're him.
[07:52] ---
    Well, who are you, Pops?
[07:55] ---
    Who, me?
[07:57] ---
    I'm Ryuji Suguro's old man!
[08:01] ---
    For real?
[08:04] ---
    Yes, for real!
    Can't you see the resemblance?
[08:07] ---
    Really? Suguro looks a lot cooler.
[08:10] ---
    You think?
[08:12] ---
    You must be good friends with Ryuji.
[08:20] ---
    We had a fight.
[08:21] ---
    Oh, dear. You too, huh?
[08:23] ---
    Actually, Ryuji and I
    are in the middle of one, too!
[08:28] ---
    You too, huh?
[08:32] ---
    He can be a real minefield, can't he?
[08:36] ---
    That's for sure.
[08:38] ---
    But he's a good guy.
[08:41] ---
    So I want to patch things up with him.
[08:45] ---
    I know how you feel.
[08:49] ---
    So this is the Kyoto field office's Deep Keep?
[08:52] ---
    Yep. It's not much compared to the
    True Cross Academy's Deep Keep,
[08:56] ---
    but the strength of our wards here
    is just as dangerous.
[09:00] ---
    And yet somebody
    waltzed right through both of them.
[09:03] ---
    Good point...
[09:05] ---
    I've been hearing about internal squabbles
    among the Myoda Sect.
[09:08] ---
    Could that be related to this?
[09:10] ---
    No! Or so I wish I could say.
[09:13] ---
    But to be perfectly honest,
    I can't say for certain that it's unrelated.
[09:23] ---
    So this is the Right Eye
    of the Impure King, huh?
[09:27] ---
    Done! Pops, why don't you carry in
    some of these yourself?
[09:33] ---
    Hey, what are you doing?
[09:35] ---
    I'm glad I met you, Rin!
    Let's chat again sometime!
[09:39] ---
    Hey! Wait, you—
[09:43] ---
    What did you say?
[09:45] ---
    Don't forget, the Deep Keep is Hojo jurisdiction!
[09:48] ---
    We're in this mess because
    your security was so full of holes!
[09:51] ---
    Watch your tongue!
[09:53] ---
    Wouldn't you say your own lax security
    on the upper level was to blame?
[09:57] ---
    That's telling him, Sister!
[10:02] ---
    I thought Kyoto was supposed
    to be more refined...
[10:06] ---
    You're always making excuses,
    you snake-faced hags!
[10:12] ---
    Stupid ape!
[10:22] ---
    Fly, k'rik!
[10:25] ---
    Look out!
[10:34] ---
    That's enough!
[10:36] ---
    - Bon!
    - Master Ryuji!
[10:37] ---
    Somebody out there is targeting us!
    This is no time to be at each other's throats!
[10:41] ---
    M-My apologies...
[10:47] ---
    I wish you'd say that
    to the face of the Master, your father.
[10:52] ---
    The public mocks him as a degenerate
    who's a high priest in name only.
[10:57] ---
    Mamushi! Give it a rest!
[10:59] ---
    No. Mamushi is right.
[11:03] ---
    Bon...
[11:05] ---
    Anyway, cut it out.
[11:09] ---
    Is anybody gonna eat
    these watermelon slices?
[11:13] ---
    Yeah...
[11:24] ---
    Yaozo! We're gonna borrow
    some cucumbers!
[11:26] ---
    Hey, Bon!
[11:28] ---
    Oh, let them. Our temple's poor,
    so let them have some in place of a snack.
[11:37] ---
    Bon! Where are you going?
[11:39] ---
    It's a secret!
[11:49] ---
    Ryuji!
[11:51] ---
    Haven't I told you not to come here?
[11:54] ---
    I-I brought an offering for Buddha!
[11:58] ---
    So can I listen to you recite
    the sutras again, Dad?
[12:01] ---
    What am I going to do with you?
    Fine, come in.
[12:11] ---
    I loved to sit there quietly
    and listen to my dad recite the sutras.

[12:22] ---
    Everyone!
[12:24] ---
    I'm sorry, but could I bother you
    to take some meals over to the field office?
[12:28] ---
    When you need grunt work done,
    I'm your man!
[12:30] ---
    Up we go!
[12:31] ---
    Goodness, you're as strong as an ox!
[12:34] ---
    Hey! Ryuji! Are you just
    going to stand there?
[12:44] ---
    - These weigh a ton! Keep it moving!
    - Oh, sorry.
[12:52] ---
    Delivery from the inn!
[12:55] ---
    Thanks, good work.
[12:56] ---
    You guys can call it a night
    and get some rest.
[12:59] ---
    Sweet! We're finally done!
[13:02] ---
    Ms. Kirigakure.
[13:04] ---
    Would it be okay
    if I went out for a bit?
[13:07] ---
    Out where?
[13:08] ---
    Kongo-Shinzan up in Raku-Hoku.
[13:11] ---
    The mountains? To do what?
[13:14] ---
    To see my old man.
[13:17] ---
    No can do.
[13:18] ---
    As your guardian, I can't let you go
    traipsing around the mountains after dark.
[13:23] ---
    Don't forget that we're here in Kyoto
    on a mission.
[13:27] ---
    Take these juices.
    And those bento boxes, too.
[13:29] ---
    Sweet! Food!
[13:31] ---
    Sorry to bother you. I'll turn in early.
[13:36] ---
    Hey, Suguro! Your bento!
[13:40] ---
    Man, you're grumpy...
    That's 'cause you haven't eaten.
[13:44] ---
    Eat something! Here, gorilla!
[13:47] ---
    Quit bugging me!
[13:53] ---
    I made him mad...
[13:55] ---
    - I should get going, too.
    - Konekomaru! Wanna join us?
[14:00] ---
    Sorry, I want to go pay my respects
    to my family.
[14:03] ---
    I see. Well, that's important.
[14:12] ---
    I missed my chance to bail!
[14:14] ---
    Um, well... I guess I should also—
[14:18] ---
    What the hell? You ain't gonna
    eat the bento I brought, either?
[14:29] ---
    Hey, this bento is really good! Right?
[14:35] ---
    Hey, man. Aren't you kinda far away?
[14:39] ---
    Am I?
[14:40] ---
    You're scared of me
    like everyone else, aren't you?
[14:44] ---
    I'm not scared!
[14:45] ---
    Why am I so tense?
[14:47] ---
    If I had to say, I just don't like hassles.
[14:51] ---
    You don't like hassles?
[14:53] ---
    Lame! Sheesh, you are so uncool!
[14:57] ---
    You called me uncool?
    I can't let that slide!
[15:01] ---
    I'm famous for being cool,
    I'll have you know!
[15:04] ---
    You?
[15:07] ---
    It's not that funny!
[15:08] ---
    Personal Coolness Rankings:
    1) My Old Man
    2) Suguro
    3) Konekomaru
    4) Me
    5) Kuro (cat)
    6) Yukio
[15:08] ---
    Look close! On my list of cool people,
    you rank somewhere around here!
[15:13] ---
    I'm below Kuro?
[15:14] ---
    Nope. You're off the page!
[15:16] ---
    That's just mean!
[15:19] ---
    He's asleep!
[15:26] ---
    What am I doing?
[15:28] ---
    I was trying to avoid you
    as much as possible,
[15:31] ---
    but here I am,
    talking to you like always.
[15:40] ---
    It's way more of a hassle to avoid somebody.
[15:44] ---
    Okay, I give!
[15:45] ---
    Damn right! Just give up!
[15:47] ---
    It ain't gonna do any good,
    so laugh it up! Laugh it up!
[15:53] ---
    Yeah, I'll do that.
[15:57] ---
    Even Bon, even Koneko...
[16:00] ---
    Everybody's way too uptight.
[16:03] ---
    You're, like, the king of lame.
[16:06] ---
    Why are you talking like that?
[16:25] ---
    I learned that by listening to my dad!
[16:28] ---
    That's amazing, Bon!
[16:30] ---
    You can memorize stuff
    after hearing it just twice!
[16:32] ---
    He's a weirdo, a weirdo!
    He's not awesome, his head's messed up!
[16:36] ---
    Who's a weirdo?
[16:37] ---
    I'm gonna inherit this temple,
    so I gotta be able to—
[16:40] ---
    We can't take it anymore!
[16:41] ---
    We keep losing parishioners! If this goes on,
    we won't be able to feed our families!
[16:45] ---
    I'm leaving the Myoda Sect!
[16:47] ---
    Plus, the thought that there might be
    another Blue Night terrifies me!
[16:53] ---
    Bon!
[16:53] ---
    Wait!
[16:55] ---
    When I grow up
    and take over the temple,
[16:57] ---
    I'm gonna work with my dad
    and defeat Satan!
[16:59] ---
    We're gonna make it
    so there'll never be another Blue Night!
[17:02] ---
    We won't let anyone else get hurt!
[17:04] ---
    So please!
[17:05] ---
    Bear with us just a little longer!
[17:08] ---
    Master Ryuji, the Master has moved the
    temple's main object of worship elsewhere.
[17:13] ---
    That's a betrayal of his followers...
    No, of the Myoda Sect itself.
[17:18] ---
    We can't follow Father Tatsuma anymore.
[17:23] ---
    Wait... Please, wait!
[17:26] ---
    I know Dad will...
[17:29] ---
    Bon.
[17:32] ---
    What's the matter?
[17:34] ---
    Juzo!
[17:35] ---
    Everybody's saying
    they're gonna leave the temple!
[17:37] ---
    Are even you and Mamushi and Shima
    and Konekomaru... Is everybody gonna leave?
[17:43] ---
    It will never come to that.
[17:47] ---
    Ever since the Blue Night, there have been
    unprecedented hardships for Myoda.
[17:52] ---
    After many lengthy discussions
    between us senior priests and the Master,
[17:56] ---
    a decision has been reached.
[17:59] ---
    The Myoda Sect will affiliate itself
    with the Order of the True Cross!
[18:04] ---
    While we may undergo
    outward changes,
[18:05] ---
    it won't conflict with the Myoda Sect's teachings
    and their emphasis on pure exorcisms.
[18:10] ---
    The Master has given his blessing
    to this course of action.
[18:12] ---
    All in favor of this adopting this policy,
    raise your hand.
[18:18] ---
    Dad!
[18:20] ---
    I heard about the
    Order of the True Cross!
[18:22] ---
    You're gonna become
    an exorcist, too, right?
[18:27] ---
    No, I won't.
[18:29] ---
    I'll be letting Yaozo and Uwabami handle things
    after the merger with the Order.
[18:34] ---
    That'll put our followers' minds at ease.
[18:36] ---
    Ryuji, you don't need to
    worry about that anymore, either.
[18:40] ---
    Well, I'm busy, so I'll see you later.
[18:47] ---
    Dad...
[18:48] ---
    Master Ryuji.
[18:51] ---
    Uwabami!
[18:52] ---
    It's been a long time.
[18:54] ---
    I'm told you defused a situation
    between my subordinates earlier.
[18:57] ---
    Thank you for that.
[18:59] ---
    No, don't sweat it.
[19:01] ---
    Master Ryuji.
[19:03] ---
    Are you aware that Myoda followers
    are suspected in this incident?
[19:07] ---
    What?
[19:07] ---
    Which is why I've decided
    to investigate the matter quietly.
[19:12] ---
    Do you have any likely suspects?
[19:14] ---
    No. But even the office director
    is under suspicion, so I must act.
[19:19] ---
    We might uncover something.
[19:22] ---
    Have you gotten in touch
    with my dad?
[19:24] ---
    No. This is an internal Order matter.
    The Master has no say in—
[19:29] ---
    He damn well does!
[19:33] ---
    Sorry.
[19:34] ---
    I'll join in, too. Can you bring Dad,
    even if you have to drag him here?
[19:38] ---
    Very well.
[19:49] ---
    I'm gonna go to True Cross Academy
    in Tokyo for high school.
[19:53] ---
    I'm gonna study exorcisms at their cram school
    and become an exorcist.
[19:57] ---
    To lead our followers, I want to learn
    as many types of exorcism lore as I can.
[20:02] ---
    I forbid it.
[20:03] ---
    Why?
[20:04] ---
    I told you before! You're free to do
    what you want with your life!
[20:08] ---
    You're smart, and you haven't had a Temptaint!
    You can leave this life behind!
[20:12] ---
    You could even take over your mom's inn!
[20:14] ---
    This is what I want to do with my life!
    Like I'd take over a stupid inn!
[20:20] ---
    This discussion is over.
[20:23] ---
    You're running away?
[20:24] ---
    You're hardly ever at home,
    you refuse to join the Order,
[20:27] ---
    and you've abandoned the Myoda Sect!
    Running is all you do!
[20:31] ---
    Do you know what everybody
    says about you, Dad?
[20:33] ---
    They call you a coward!
    A degenerate priest!
[20:36] ---
    Doesn't that piss you off?
[20:38] ---
    Cause... it sure pisses me off!
[20:41] ---
    I'm...
[20:45] ---
    ...not gonna run.
[21:03] ---
    What the heck?
[21:05] ---
    This one's the juice?
[21:10] ---
    Why is this happening to me?
[21:15] ---
    Happy Father's Day!
[21:21] ---
    You two are fine artists!
[21:36] ---
    Target is close...
    Target is very close!
[21:49] ---
    I'll break the glass.
[22:00] ---
    They're dead...
[22:06] ---
    Everything is ready to go on my end.
[22:09] ---
    How are things going on yours?
[22:13] ---
    If you don't act before they find you out,
    you won't get another chance.
[22:18] ---
    After all, this is all for nothing if the left
    and right eyes aren't brought together.

    Episode 3: Suspicion Will Raise Bogies
[24:06] ---
    Okay, now I'm mad!
[24:08] ---
    What am I gonna do? At this rate, I...
[24:11] ---
    I... I have nothing.
[24:15] ---
    Master! What in the world?
[24:18] ---
    I've brought you all here for one reason!
[24:22] ---
    To smoke out the traitor in our midst!
