[00:08] Kazuki
    We live together, 
    and we're work buddies too.
[00:11] Kazuki
    Buddies in what, you ask? Well...
[00:14] Kazuki
    Sorry, there's been a change of destination.
[00:17] Rei
    It's none of your business. Butt out.
[00:17] Kazuki
    As you see here, we're hitmen.
[00:21] Kazuki
    Guys like us don't really get
    a chance at normal happiness.
[00:24] Kazuki
    Even on Christmas Eve, we were taking
    on a bit of our usual dirty business,
[00:27] Kazuki
    the standard "take out the target
    and be done with it" sort of deal,
[00:31] Kazuki
    Except...
[00:51] Kazuki
    Crud.
[00:52] Kazuki
    There's a kid.

[01:01] Miri
    It's so good!
[01:03] Miri
    Did you bring me what I wanted?
[01:07] Kazuki
    Wh-What you wanted?
[01:09] Miri
    I wished so hard to see Papa for Christmas!
[01:13] Miri
    I've never met my papa before!
[01:16] Miri
    Mama said he was here!
[01:20] Kazuki
    Gosh, little dear!
[01:21] Kazuki
    Perhaps I'll bring your
    papa here just for you!
[01:25] Miri
    You mean it?! Hooray!
[01:28] Miri
    We're here!
[01:30] Miri
    Papa!
[01:31] Kazuki
    No freakin' way!
[01:33] Bodyguard 3
    Don't move! What was that just now?!
[01:54] Miri
    Santa!
[01:55] Kazuki
    Not Santa!
[01:56] Kazuki
    I'm your papa!
[01:59] Miri
    Papa!
[02:00] Kazuki
    Miri! Jump!
[02:13] Miri
    Papa!
[02:28] Miri
    Thank you, Santa...
[02:31] Kazuki
    Sheesh! What's with this kid, anyway?
[02:35] Kazuki
    The guy we took out turned
    out to be her dad!
[02:39] Kazuki
    Which meant us hitmen ended up
    taking care of this little kid!
[02:41] Kazuki
    Are you kidding me?!
[02:45] OP
    Hey, I want to love, is this true love?
[02:48] OP
    Is just wanting to be loved insincere?
[02:52] OP
    What should I do?
[02:54] OP
    Oh, what should I do?
[03:00] OP
    As usual, the whole city
[03:03] OP
    Is madly in love and excited
[03:07] OP
    Extras like me just go home
[03:10] OP
    But I'm not sulking at all
[03:13] OP
    And then you appeared suddenly
[03:17] OP
    As though you were ripping
    through those days
[03:21] OP
    With your smile that leaves me numb
[03:24] OP
    You shattered my heart
[03:30] OP
    Hey, I want to love, is this true love?
[03:34] OP
    Is just wanting to be loved insincere?
[03:37] OP
    What should I do?
[03:39] OP
    Oh, what should I do?
[03:42] OP
    How the heck should I know?
[03:44] OP
    I don't know what's going on in your head
[03:48] OP
    But it's not fair that you're so friendly
[03:52] OP
    Once again, I'm being
    swallowed up by your rhythm

[04:15] Miri
    Papa! Papa!
[04:18] Miri
    Papa! I gotta pee!
[04:20] Kazuki
    Seeing as we'd never raised a kid before,
[04:22] Kazuki
    There! Knock yourself out!
[04:23] Kazuki
    we didn't have the slightest
    idea what to do with her!
[04:24] Miri
    So heavy!
[04:26] Kazuki
    Hey!
[04:29] Kazuki
    What the hell are you doing?!
[04:32] Kazuki
    Rei! Perfect timing!
[04:33] Kazuki
    Go on, Miri! Play with Papa Rei!
[04:37] Kazuki
    You might say hitmen like us were the last
    people who should be raising a kid, but...
[04:50] Miri
    Spicy!
[04:53] Kazuki
    So, what's your name?
[04:55] Miri
    I'm Unasaka Miri, and I'm four years old!
[04:58] Kazuki
    But even with Miri in our lives,
    we had to keep working...
[05:02] Kazuki
    And you can have as much as you like!
[05:05] Miri
    Yay!
[05:07] Miri
    Papa! No!
[05:07] Kazuki
    Crap!
[05:09] Miri
    Papa! Don't go!
[05:12] Kazuki
    J-Just shut the hell up!
[05:14] Rei
    You certainly had that handled.
[05:14] Miri
    No!
[05:19] Miri
    I wanna come too!
[05:23] Rei
    This isn't going anywhere good.
[05:31] Kazuki
    Rei's prediction was right on the money.
[05:37] Miri
    I gotta potty!
[05:41] Miri
    Thank you very much, mister!
[05:44] Subordinate 3
    Sure. Glad you didn't have an accident.
[05:46] Kazuki
    What's she doing here?!
[05:51] Miri
    Found you, Papa!
[05:58] Kazuki
    Caught you!
[06:08] Kazuki
    I caught her!
[06:10] Boss
    K-Kill him!
[06:17] Kazuki
    H-Holy shit...
[06:19] Miri
    Airplane!
[06:21] Kazuki
    The plan's off!
[06:23] Kazuki
    We gotta go!
[06:33] Kazuki
    Darn it! You made it flashy again!
[06:36] Rei
    I've never killed you, have I?
[06:37] Kazuki
    And you could've gotten yourself killed!
[06:39] Kazuki
    Don't scare me like that again!
[06:41] Kazuki
    Got it?
[06:43] Miri
    Got it, Papa!
[06:45] Kazuki
    That's why we decided to
    take Miri back to her mom.
[06:48] Kazuki
    There was no way we were taking care of her.
[06:52] Kazuki
    Two hitmen raising a kid
    was never gonna go well.
[06:56] Kazuki
    I just wasn't cut out for it.
[07:09] Kazuki
    Miri's mom was working at
    some bar in the boonies.
[07:15] Misaki
    Me and that kid are nothing
    to each other now.
[07:18] Kazuki
    That's not true!
[07:19] Misaki
    You think I wanted a kid?
[07:24] Misaki
    She destroyed my dreams, and I'm
    supposed to laugh about it?!
[07:28] Kazuki
    That's supposed to come naturally
    from being a mother!
[07:32] Kazuki
    Isn't struggling and sacrificing
    parts of your life for your kid
[07:35] Kazuki
    supposed to be part of
    the joy of parenthood?
[07:40] Misaki
    It's always the ones with
    the loftiest ideals
[07:43] Misaki
    who bring the greatest
    misfortune to their families.
[07:50] Kazuki
    I thought, what kind of mom
    says that kinda thing?
[07:54] Kazuki
    But I think she sorta saw through me, too.
[08:00] Miri
    Papa Kazuki!
[08:03] Miri
    Welcome back!
[08:04] Kazuki
    Hey.
[08:05] Rei
    So? What now?
[08:09] Kazuki
    Let's see...
[08:13] Kazuki
    Let's get some dinner on the way home.
[08:16] Rei
    For three?
[08:17] Kazuki
    For three.
[08:21] Rei
    One day, after a job,
    Kazuki brought home this kid.
[08:26] Rei
    He couldn't really take care of it,
    so things got pretty bad.
[08:32] Miri
    Rei-kun, push me!
[08:39] Miri
    Now that one!
[08:42] Miri
    So much fun!
[08:47] Rei
    I don't get kids at all.
[08:51] Rei
    Why do you refer to Kazuki as "Papa"?
[08:55] Miri
    "Papa" is the person who saves
    you when you're in trouble!
[09:00] Miri
    Got it?
[09:10] Cop 1
    Well? What's your name?
[09:12] Miri
    Unasaka Miri! Four years old!
[09:15] Cop 2
    A lost child...
[09:17] Miri
    I can get home!
[09:18] Cop 2
    We should probably take her in.
[09:20] Cop 2
    Let's get her to the station.
[09:23] Miri
    Save me, Papa!
[09:26] Miri
    Save me, Papa!
[09:37] Miri
    No! Let me go!
[09:38] Cop 1
    Quit squirming!
[09:41] Cop 2
    Who're you?
[09:43] Rei
    Let her go.
[09:45] Cop 1
    Eh?
[09:46] Cop 2
    Are you her guardian?
[09:48] Rei
    No.
[09:51] Rei
    I am...
[09:53] Rei
    her papa.
[09:57] Rei
    Let's go home, Miri.
[10:04] Miri
    Papa Rei!
[10:10] Rei
    Let's go home, Miri.
[10:12] Miri
    Okay!
[10:13] Rei
    I don't get Miri, but I might as well
    look after her a little while longer.
[10:23] Kazuki
    Can you move her to your side more?
[10:25] Kazuki
    Hey!
[10:27] Kazuki
    Are you asleep already?!
[10:29] Miri
    Lemme do it!
[10:31] Kazuki
    Hey, don't—
[10:34] Miri
    Sorry!
[10:36] Kazuki
    In the end, we ended up
    living together again.
[10:39] Kazuki
    But as you can see,
    it wasn't all wine and roses!
[10:41] Miri
    Sorry!
[10:42] Kazuki
    We couldn't even work.
[10:44] Kazuki
    How does anyone manage to balance
    work and taking care of a child?
[10:47] Miri
    Sorry!
[10:52] Miri
    Papa!
[10:53] Miri
    Watch me! Watch me!
[10:56] Rei
    I'm exhausted.

    Uh-oh. Gotta hurry, not much time!
[11:58] Kazuki
    After many trials and tribulations,
    we got her to preschool...
[12:03] Kazuki
    But I might've gone a little
    overboard with the wardrobe...
[12:06] Kazuki
    It's your first day, girl.

    They could do a hit on my husband too!

[12:27] Kazuki
    I started to get a real
    paternal feeling about her.
[12:27] Anna
    Miri-chan! Your papa's here for you!
[12:30] Kazuki
    It was up to me to make
    sure she grew up right!
[12:30] Miri
    Papa Kazuki! Just a minute!
[12:34] Anna
    Well... Today, Miri-chan...
[12:36] Anna
    I'm told she got in a fight with a friend.
[12:40] Kazuki
    A fight?
[12:41] Kazuki
    I'm doing this because I care about you.
[12:45] Kazuki
    At times like these, Papa Kazuki—
[12:46] Miri
    No! You're being scary!
[12:49] Miri
    I don't like you, Papa! I hate you!
[12:52] Miri
    I hate you!

    I hate you!
[12:54] Miri

    If this breakdown in our relationship
    puts Miri on the road to delinquency...
[13:01] Kazuki
    I'm so sorry, Miri.
[13:02] Kazuki
    I should've been more understanding.
[13:05] Delinquent Miri
    Shaddap!

    Quit actin' like my papa!

    You always got on my nerves, you old fart!

    Oh, crud!
[13:18] Kazuki
    And it happened on field
    trip day of all days...
[13:21] Kazuki
    Plus, parents weren't allowed to come along!
[13:23] Kazuki
    I had to work out a way to get
    her lunch to her without being seen!
[13:29] Rei
    This feels overboard.
[13:30] Kazuki
    We're professionals.
[13:32] Kazuki
    We do whatever it takes to
    see our mission through!
[13:37] Rei
    You're way more conspicuous like that.
[13:42] Miri
    My lunch!
[13:44] Kazuki
    I gotta take it to her!
[13:46] Rei
    You can't let them see you!
[13:48] Kazuki
    But the poor kid!

    What's that?
[13:53] Taiga
    Take it.

    Yeah!

    Thanks, Taiga-kun!

    But...
[14:05] Kotori
    Taiga-kun's gonna steal our fried
    chicken and be mean again.
[14:09] Miri
    You won't do that, right?
[14:12] Taiga
    I won't do it again. Sorry.
[14:17] Kotori/Hinata
    Okay, then!
[14:21] Miri
    These rice balls are so tasty!

[15:11] Kazuki
    Miri!
[15:13] Kazuki
    I'm sorry! It was all my fault!
[15:15] Kazuki
    I was the one who was out of line.
[15:16] Kazuki
    You didn't do anything wrong!
[15:18] Kazuki
    Kids are way more attentive than you think.
[15:19] Miri
    That's tickly!
[15:20] Kazuki
    I oughta trust her more.
[15:20] Miri
    Let me go, Papa!
[15:24] Miri
    I wanna play!
[15:24] Kazuki
    Or so I thought, until...
[15:26] Kazuki
    No! Bath first!
[15:28] Kazuki
    Do the laundry, wash the dishes,
     make dinner,
[15:31] Kazuki
    We're supposed to be two dads and a kid,

    get her a bath...

    Do the laundry, wash the dishes...

    I don't like these.

    How'd I get more?!
[15:42] Rei
    I can't stand mushrooms.

    I don't want them!

    Well, neither do I.

    No! You gotta eat them!

[16:10] Kyutaro
    So you ran off early this morning?
[16:12] Kazuki
    It's the only way to get
    Rei to look after Miri.
[16:16] Kazuki
    And Miri needs to appreciate
    how much I do for her.
[16:21] Kyutaro
    Your sister-in-law returned it again.
[16:23] Kyutaro
    I'm pretty sure she won't take it.
[16:26] Kyutaro
    You really need to talk this out with her.
[16:29] Kyutaro
    Karin-chan is Yuzuko-chan's

[16:33] Yuzuko
    Our little one "can't wait to see Papa."
[16:59] Kazuki
    Yuz—
[17:05] Kazuki
    It'd been five years since I lost
    my wife Yuzuko and our unborn child.
[17:11] Karin
    Big Sis really liked this place, huh?
[17:16] Kazuki
    I'm scared, okay?
[17:20] Kazuki
    Of changing.
[17:22] Kazuki
    Of forgetting what I did in letting her die.
[17:25] Kazuki
    Of being fulfilled by something else.
[17:28] Kazuki
    Of her slipping out of my memory.
[17:33] Kazuki
    That's why I don't want to change.
[17:37] Karin
    Memories aren't a prison.
[17:42] Karin
    I hear you took in a relative's kid?
[17:45] Kazuki
    It's really not a big deal.
[17:47] Kazuki
    She just fell into my lap.
[17:49] Karin
    That's cool, too! Having fun?
[17:51] Kazuki
    Nah, she's just a huge handful.
[17:54] Kazuki
    She doesn't do a thing I tell her.
[17:56] Karin
    Well, I know you can make her happy, too!
[18:06] Kazuki
    Ah, well.
[18:08] Kazuki
    Guess I'll work at it a bit longer.
[18:21] Kazuki
    Of course, Rei's family life is
    just as complicated as mine.
[18:37] Rei
    Forgive my long absence, Boss.
[18:39] Rei
    You seem well.
[18:40] Shigeki
    So, living among the little people
    has taught you proper etiquette?
[18:45] Shigeki
    Return to this home.
[18:48] Shigeki
    I've given you more than enough leash.
[18:50] Shigeki
    It's time for you to learn the business
    of being head of the organization.
[18:57] Shigeki
    It seems you've formed pointless ties.
[19:01] Shigeki
    Bad influences are common
    enough in our business.
[19:05] Shigeki
    If one such influence has sullied
    the Suwa family blood—
[19:07] Rei
    No.
[19:08] Rei
    Kazuki has nothing to do with this.
[19:13] Shigeki
    Finish this before the day is over.
[19:17] Rei
    I know this man.
[19:19] Shigeki
    He betrayed the organization.
[19:21] Shigeki
    You'd better not betray my expectations.

    So you were the one following me?

    How appropriate.
[19:30] Rei
    I'm here on a job.
[19:34] Rei
    The assassins' blood of the
    Suwa family cannot be opposed.
[19:38] Rei
    I was given the order, so I had to kill
    the man who taught me the business.
[19:45] Rei
    I'd have been killed if I hadn't.
[19:48] Rei
    Even though I'm his biological son.
[19:50] Shigeki
    Don't call me "Dad."
[19:52] Shigeki
    I am your boss.
[20:11] Rei
    But... as I am now, I...
[20:17] Rei
    I have something worth protecting, too.
[20:48] Shigeki
    You'd better not betray my expectations.
[20:53] Rei
    Am I the same way?
[20:59] Kazuki
    Hey, damn it! What're you doing, dumbass?!
[21:01] Rei
    Kazuki?
[21:02] Kazuki
    There's no time. Get in!
[21:07] Rei
    I'm ba—
[21:13] Rei
    Oh, it was today.
[21:16] Kazuki
    Miri helped with everything.
[21:18] Kazuki
    All day long.
SIGN    Happy Birthday
[21:21] Kazuki
    She wanted to make you happy.
[21:27] Miri
    Happy birthday to you...
[21:31] Miri
    Happy birthday...
[21:39] Kazuki
    Hey! You did it, Miri!
[21:41] Kazuki
    He smiled!
[21:46] Kazuki
    Go on.
[21:47] Rei
    Sure.
[21:53] Kazuki
    I always figured guys like us didn't
    get a chance at normal happiness.
[21:59] Kazuki
    But we made a family.
    A family I want to protect!
[22:08] Kyutaro
    Sorry, we're—
[22:15] Ogino
    A request for info from the boss.
[22:18] Ogino
    The organization trusts you.
[22:29] ED
    The scenery never changes and
    every day is full of surprises
[22:34] ED
    But those are the best parts
[22:39] ED
    Wrapped around your finger
    and going in circles
[22:44] ED
    These days are dizzying yet endearing
[22:49] ED
    On your restless nights,
    I softly whisper a lullaby
[22:53] ED
    And stroke your hair to the
    rhythm of your breathing
[22:58] ED
    I just want these days to
    continue as long as possible
[23:02] ED
    Even if it's just a day
[23:08] ED
    I chased after you as you ran barefoot
[23:13] ED
    Maybe one day, you'll surpass me, ah
[23:17] ED
    I wonder what tomorrow's going to be like
[23:22] ED
    Why don't we walk together?
[23:27] ED
    This will always be our place to come home to
[23:32] ED
    And it'll shine down on our sadness
[23:36] ED
    That's all right, yeah, that's okay
[23:41] ED
    Let's try to share our love together
[23:46] ED
    Let the light always shine upon hope
[23:49] ED
    When the future is unpredictable
