[00:11] ---
    Juzo!
[00:12] ---
    Dad, those flames were—
[00:14] ---
    We need to focus
    on locating the Right Eye right now.
[00:18] ---
    Listen, I want you to tail Master Tatsuma.
[00:21] ---
    Whatever you do,
    make sure he doesn't see you.
[00:24] ---
    The Master?
[00:27] ---
    Miss Kirigakure, are you Rin's guardian?
[00:31] ---
    Hm?
[00:34] ---
    Nice tush!
[00:37] ---
    Hands off!
[00:43] ---
    Look after Rin, you hear?
[00:55] ---
    Pretty spry for an old fart.
[01:00] ---
    Shura here.
[01:02] ---
    Oh, is that you, Yukio?
    Where the heck have you been?
[01:05] ---
    Did you get the Left Eye back?
    Huh? How are things here?
[01:10] ---
    Well, we've had a bit of a situation here.
[01:13] ---
    Huh?
SIGN    Episode 5: Mysterious Connections
[02:47] ---
    Yukio!
[02:49] ---
    Shura.
[02:51] ---
    What's going on?
[02:53] ---
    We were late to check in
    because of a jamming signal.
[02:55] ---
    Jamming signal?
[02:57] ---
    It prevented us from checking in,
    so our only option was coming in person.
[03:01] ---
    You said that there was a situation here.
    How so?
[03:04] ---
    Well, about that...
[03:09] ---
    I'm Yaozo Shima,
    director of the Kyoto field office.
[03:13] ---
    You must be the Left Eye retrieval team.
[03:16] ---
    We're glad to have you here.
[03:18] ---
    Since all senior staff are present,
    I'd like to hold a meeting right away.
[03:23] ---
    Shall we?
[03:42] ---
    Are you okay?
[03:46] ---
    Perhaps the strain
    was too much for you.
[03:50] ---
    No, I'm fine. I can keep going.
[03:54] ---
    Things would be difficult
    if anything happened to you.
[03:57] ---
    Bearing both eyes would be a burden,
    even for me, so let's take a quick break.
[04:01] ---
    No, thank you!
[04:04] ---
    We must take these vile eyeballs
    to a safe location without delay!
[04:12] ---
    I am ashamed to say it,
[04:14] ---
    but a traitor has stolen the Right Eye
    from the Kyoto field office.
[04:19] ---
    It's likely that the perpetrator was also behind
    the failed attempt earlier.
[04:25] ---
    Her name is Mamushi Hojo,
[04:27] ---
    intermediate exorcist first class
    and former leader of Deep Keep Squad 1.
[04:31] ---
    Mamushi is currently on the run,
    thanks to assistance from Todo.
[04:36] ---
    I see. This means our quarry, Saburota Todo,
    already possesses both the Left and Right Eyes.
[04:45] ---
    You didn't have any luck
    with the Left Eye, huh?
[04:47] ---
    The vehicle we were pursuing was a decoy.
[04:52] ---
    We found the bodies
    of two dead exorcists inside.
[04:55] ---
    Plus, he was thorough enough to use
    a signal jammer to prevent us from reporting it.
[05:01] ---
    It was a elaborate ploy to buy time.
[05:03] ---
    I can't believe it!
    Both the Right Eye and Left Eye have—
[05:08] ---
    Director!
[05:11] ---
    What will happen when the Right and Left Eyes
    of the Impure King are brought together?
[05:18] ---
    For more than 150 years,
    the Myoda Sect has kept secrets within secrets.
[05:26] ---
    Secrets within secrets?
[05:28] ---
    The only one who knows and safeguards
    all of our secrets
[05:32] ---
    is the leader of our sect,
    high priest Tatsuma Suguro.
[05:37] ---
    However,
[05:38] ---
    there is a secret that is divulged
    to those of us in the upper ranks.
[05:43] ---
    Which is?
[05:45] ---
    According to "On the Impure King," which is
    passed down among the upper priest rank alone,
[05:51] ---
    it's said that when his left
    and right eyes are united,
[05:54] ---
    an even more potent miasma
    will be released.
[05:59] ---
    An even more potent miasma...
[06:01] ---
    I don't believe it, Todo's objective is to...
[06:06] ---
    I don't know how powerful
    this stuff will be, but it sounds bad.
[06:10] ---
    It might be more than
    the Order of the True Cross can handle by itself.
[06:15] ---
    In any case, I'd say our priority
    is to find Todo and Hojo.
[06:19] ---
    We're currently searching
    the most likely places,
[06:22] ---
    but as they vanished into thin air,
    we've had no luck picking up their trail.
[06:27] ---
    To prepare for the worst,
[06:30] ---
    I believe we should request assistance
    from the Doctors as well as the other divisions.
[06:36] ---
    Is he planning to release
    a powerful miasma?
[06:39] ---
    If so, why not do it
    the instant they stole the Right Eye?
[06:42] ---
    Does he have a specific location in mind?
    Or is it for another reason entirely?
[06:48] ---
    When I look at you,
    it's like I'm looking at my past self.
[06:53] ---
    As far as I can remember,
    I'd been on a track fate had laid out for me,
[06:56] ---
    unable to even vent the doubts I had for years,
[07:00] ---
    and I worked my whole life like a good dog
    for the good of the Order, of my family.
[07:04] ---
    But what do I have to show for it
    after a life of that?
[07:09] ---
    Nothing.
[07:10] ---
    Even if you don't understand them now,
    my words will wend their way through your body.
[07:16] ---
    When the day comes, I will welcome you
    with open arms, Yukio Okumura.
[07:21] ---
    Saburota Todo...
    I feel as though he has another motive.
[07:26] ---
    Something far more sinister.
[07:30] ---
    Yukio.
[07:31] ---
    Yes?
[07:32] ---
    So, about that situation I mentioned earlier.
[07:42] ---
    What is it?
[07:44] ---
    Well, um...
[07:47] ---
    Is it about my brother?
[07:50] ---
    Sharp as always!
[07:52] ---
    What did he do this time?
[07:55] ---
    He flared up, and everybody saw it.
[08:02] ---
    That idiot!
[08:09] ---
    All right. Where is he now?
[08:14] ---
    Solitary Confinement Block 1
[08:31] ---
    The Koma Sword. Also known as Kurikara.
[08:34] ---
    It's a legendary demon-slaying
    sword from ancient times.
[08:38] ---
    I have transferred your demonic
    powers to this sword,
[08:40] ---
    and sealed them in its scabbard.
[08:43] ---
    Once drawn, your demonic powers
    will be awakened,
[08:46] ---
    and you can never go back
    to being human again.
[09:21] ---
    Shut up!
[09:25] ---
    All your yammering is getting on my nerves!
[09:30] ---
    You go around labeling people...
[09:34] ---
    I'm not a weapon or a demon king
    or anybody's savior!
[09:37] ---
    I'm Rin Okumura!
[09:39] ---
    I'm gonna be the most powerful
    exorcist ever one day!
[09:42] ---
    And don't you bastards forget it!
[09:55] ---
    It was reckless to say
    he would pass the exam in six months.
[09:59] ---
    Rin might become an exorcism target.
    His life is hanging by a thread.
[10:04] ---
    Pretty much.
[10:05] ---
    What are we gonna do?
    We're kind of in uncharted territory here.
[10:09] ---
    Take this seriously.
[10:11] ---
    I swore on our father's grave
    that I would protect Rin.
[10:16] ---
    Solitary Confinement Block 1
[10:16] ---
    Do you know what it takes
    to be a good exorcist?
[10:20] ---
    To have heart, technique,
    and physique, right?
[10:22] ---
    The main thing is to be honest with yourself
    and not to repress your emotions.
[10:26] ---
    Demons take advantage of stuff
    like pent-up anger and intense stress.
[10:32] ---
    As far as that goes,
    Rin has the makings of a fine exorcist.
[10:37] ---
    People like you, on the other hand,
    are dangerous.
[10:40] ---
    You're the type that'll get turned.
[10:48] ---
    Come on, try opening up and cutting loose.
[10:52] ---
    All right, if I'm being honest...
[10:54] ---
    I can say that I've always hated you.
[10:59] ---
    Good, that's more like it!
[11:09] ---
    Wait, you're still working?
[11:11] ---
    Kamiki!
[11:13] ---
    Don't worry, I'll be done
    once I finish making these fever reducers.
[11:16] ---
    No, I didn't mean that.
    There was an earthquake a while ago.
[11:19] ---
    An earthquake?
    Oh, yeah, I suppose there was!
[11:23] ---
    Good grief. There's such a thing
    as being too focused.
[11:28] ---
    Plus, you're chipper again all of a sudden.
    That's weedy resilience for you.
[11:34] ---
    Well, I can't stay mopey forever, right?
[11:37] ---
    Well, you're finally back to your usual self.
[11:41] ---
    How am I usually?
[11:45] ---
    Like, in what way?
[11:47] ---
    You're always ditzy and smiling,
[11:49] ---
    and you have nerves of steel,
    the way you can go up and talk to anyone.
[11:53] ---
    That's your usual self, right?
[11:56] ---
    Th-That's how people see me...
[12:01] ---
    I see.
[12:04] ---
    But I'm... n-not really like that.
[12:08] ---
    You see,
[12:09] ---
    up until a little while ago,
    I thought I was getting close to you all.
[12:15] ---
    But Rin and Yuki were both
    carrying such a huge burden...
[12:22] ---
    You mean how Rin Okumura
    is the spawn of Satan?
[12:26] ---
    They were always around me,
    but I never noticed.
[12:36] ---
    When I realized I was useless in a pinch,
    I got scared.
[12:43] ---
    I lost my confidence
    in everything I did.
[12:46] ---
    And then I would just keep messing up.
[12:49] ---
    I wasn't even able to start
    a conversation with Rin.
[12:55] ---
    So...
[12:58] ---
    I have to pull myself together!
    And I'm starting with my specialty! Laundry!
[13:04] ---
    Are you saying that you
    and Rin Okumura are...
[13:07] ---
    Ma'am!
[13:10] ---
    Izumo! You look awesome
    in that yukata!
[13:14] ---
    Moriyama! Bon's been hurt,
    so could you find some ice?
[13:18] ---
    O-Of course!
[13:20] ---
    He's hurt?
[13:26] ---
    All right, what happened?
[13:29] ---
    The Right Eye's been stolen
    from the field office.
[13:34] ---
    No way! That can't be!
[13:37] ---
    Also... Okumura's been taken into custody.
[13:40] ---
    Custody?
[13:42] ---
    He flared up, and everybody saw it.
[13:52] ---
    Th-Then... Where's Okumura?
[13:55] ---
    In a cell at the field office.
[13:59] ---
    Uh... Doesn't that mean
    Rin is in serious trouble?
[14:08] ---
    Rin...
[14:17] ---
    Have you cooled off a little?
[14:23] ---
    How does your body feel?
[14:27] ---
    I still feel wobbly...
    but I guess I can move.
[14:31] ---
    Well, you heard him.
[14:42] ---
    You say you're going to make me eat your dust,
    and here you are in a jail cell.
[14:46] ---
    Is this what you meant when you said
    you'd make my jaw hit the floor?
[14:58] ---
    Suguro's dad slipped this to me earlier.
[15:00] ---
    To: Rin Okumura
[15:01] ---
    I think he meant for me to give it to you.
[15:06] ---
    Why to me?
[15:07] ---
    I haven't looked at it. Read it yourself.
[15:24] ---
    Okay then.
[15:26] ---
    What's it say?
[15:29] ---
    I can't read it.
[15:31] ---
    Seriously? I knew you were barely literate,
    but this is unbelievable!
[15:35] ---
    With kids these days, I fear for the future.
[15:40] ---
    No way! I can't read this either!
[15:41] ---
    You see!
[15:43] ---
    Cursive script, huh?
[15:45] ---
    I can read enough to get by.
[15:47] ---
    Then please translate for the class, Mr. Yukio.
[15:55] ---
    Hurry up, read it.
[15:57] ---
    That letter probably says
    something about this mess.
[16:00] ---
    Let's hear what he wanted
    to say to this idiot.
[16:05] ---
    As you wish.
[16:08] ---
    "Greetings, Rin Okumura.
[16:11] ---
    Allow me to introduce myself.
    I am a priest who lives in Kyoto..."
[16:14] ---
    ...and my name is Tatsuma Suguro.
[16:19] ---
    I'm sure you're wondering why
    I wrote you this letter.
[16:23] ---
    I have an important favor to ask you.
[16:26] ---
    But since I'm sure you're confused
    about getting a letter from a complete stranger,
[16:32] ---
    I'll begin by telling you
    a bit about the past.
[16:35] ---
    I'm a poor writer, so please forgive me
    if things are a bit jumbled.
[16:41] ---
    It all began a little bit
    before you and Ryuji were born.
[16:47] ---
    So, how is Torako?
[16:56] ---
    Torako...
[16:57] ---
    I was still a young man at the time,
    and my pregnant wife was gravely ill.
[17:02] ---
    I was powerless to do anything
    as she grew weaker by the day,
[17:05] ---
    and I was at my wits' end.
[17:08] ---
    This all was caused by the miasma given off
    by the Right Eye of the Impure King.
[17:17] ---
    Torako!
[17:20] ---
    Tatsuma?
[17:22] ---
    Torako...
[17:24] ---
    The baby and I will both be fine.
    So go back to your duties, okay?
[17:32] ---
    Torako!
[17:35] ---
    Master Tatsuma.
[17:38] ---
    The Master wishes to see you.
[17:42] ---
    Tatsuma!
[17:43] ---
    What are you doing?
    Do not neglect your daily duties!
[17:46] ---
    Your duty is to protect everyone
    from the impurity of the Right Eye!
[17:50] ---
    If you fail to commune with the Buddha
    for even a single day,
[17:53] ---
    he will forsake you
    and his power will leave you!
[17:57] ---
    I-I am! I have been for seven years!
[18:01] ---
    But in those seven years,
    instead of getting better, 15 have died!
[18:06] ---
    Torako can't take much more.
[18:08] ---
    If this keeps up,
    she and our unborn child will both—
[18:11] ---
    Can we really save everyone
    with the sacred flame?
[18:15] ---
    What else can you do for her now
    except tend the sacred flame?
[18:19] ---
    Well...
[18:20] ---
    Observing the noble teachings
    our honored ancestor bequeathed us is the best—
[18:27] ---
    Father!
[18:33] ---
    This discussion is over.
    I will return to my own duties.
[18:39] ---
    Even though my father had lost my mother,
    and had fallen ill himself,
[18:45] ---
    he doggedly continued to perform
    his Myoda duties.
[18:51] ---
    My duties will be yours one day.
[18:56] ---
    When I die, you will learn
    the real secrets of this temple.
[19:00] ---
    And then you must keep those secrets
    for the rest of your life.
[19:05] ---
    Secrets?
[19:06] ---
    If Torako doesn't pull through,
    find a new wife who is hardier.
[19:11] ---
    Fathering a successor is another crucial duty.
[19:16] ---
    Clear your mind and relinquish desire.
[19:20] ---
    Powerless as I was,
    I took his words to heart.
[19:38] ---
    I was born the 17th in the line
    of Myoda head priests.
[19:44] ---
    Our followers carry out their duties every day
    in order to protect that bloodline.
[19:52] ---
    So I must fulfill my own duties.
[19:55] ---
    Clearing my mind
    was how I could protect Myoda—
[19:58] ---
    No, protect Torako and the child
    she was carrying.
[20:03] ---
    I made myself believe that
    with all my heart.
[20:05] ---
    And then...
[20:09] ---
    from out of the sky...
[20:21] ---
    What?
[20:23] ---
    Protect Master Tatsuma!
[20:30] ---
    I don't believe it.
[20:32] ---
    The sacred flame...
[20:36] ---
    Damn it, that hurt!
[20:41] ---
    - Master Tatsuma!
    - Master Tatsuma!
[20:45] ---
    What's the deal with this mountain?
    The damn thing's crawling with monsters!
[20:49] ---
    That bastard Mephisto
    and his half-assed briefings!
[20:52] ---
    I came here totally under-equipped!
[20:55] ---
    I'm already out of ammo!
[20:57] ---
    Who are you?
[20:59] ---
    We were in the middle of a ritual,
    and you ruined it!
[21:02] ---
    Come down from there!
[21:04] ---
    Oh, right. About this...
[21:09] ---
    That's—
[21:10] ---
    This is called the Koma Sword, right?
[21:16] ---
    I'm gonna take it.
[21:22] ---
    And that was my disasterous first encounter
    with Shiro Fujimoto, the man who raised you.
[21:29] ---
    What are you saying?
    That sword is Myoda's main object of worship!
[21:39] ---
    I don't believe it...
[21:41] ---
    The Koma Sword is the Myoda sect's
    main object of worship,
[21:43] ---
    and he had a connection
    to father through it?
[21:47] ---
    It belonged to Suguro's family
    this whole time?
[21:51] ---
    Hurry up, keep reading!
[21:53] ---
    Right!
[22:02] ---
    I'm beat. I could do this
    without breaking a sweat 15 years ago.
[22:09] ---
    But the time to put my resolve
    to the test has come at last!
[22:16] ---
    Watch over me, Fujimoto!
[23:56] ---
    Next Time
[24:00] ---
    Episode 6: A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
[24:06] ---
    I'm gonna use it to kill a kid.
[24:08] ---
    That's Myoda's main object of worship!
[24:10] ---
    Shut up! Put a stop
    to this farce right now!
[24:13] ---
    Can you save them?
[24:14] ---
    You're the type of person
    I hate the most!
[24:17] ---
    The others will never forgive me.
[24:20] ---
    You aren't having regrets, are you?
[24:22] ---
    Mr. Todo, just what are you?
