    Flowers that bloom in the darkness
[00:03] Ko
    can only be at ease in the darkness.
[00:14] Ou
    The beauty of falling flower petals...
[00:20] Ko
    There is no need to let blossoms
    fall before they bloom.

[02:05] Tani
    Here, sorry to keep you waiting.
[02:07] Tani
    Today's curry rice.
[02:08] Naomi
    Wow, Brother.
[02:10] Naomi
    It looks delicious!
[02:11] Tani
    Oh, right!
[02:13] Tani
    Thanks!
[02:13] Tani
    The sauce, the sauce.
[02:17] Naomi
    By the way, Brother.
[02:19] Naomi
    Did you buy the baumkuchen cake we saw
    yesterday at the store near the harbor?
[02:23] Tani
    Oh...
[02:24] Naomi
    You forgot?
[02:26] Naomi
    Come on! I told you I must have it today!
[02:31] Tani
    Oh, sorry.
[02:33] Tani
    By the way...
[02:36] Tani
    Is this the cake you meant?
[02:43] Naomi
    Oh, Brother.
[02:44] Naomi
    You're going to get it!
[02:46] Tani
    H-Hey!
[02:48] ---
    Stop!
SIGN    Ah
[02:54] Naomi
    Brother...
[02:55] Naomi
    Must you work while you eat?
[02:57] Tani
    I got the interview records
    from the city police.
[03:00] Tani
    The one with Kyouka-chan.
[03:01] Naomi
    I heard she was an orphan before
    the Port Mafia took her in...
[03:05] Tani
    As for why she became an
    orphan in the first place,
[03:08] Tani
    her parents were killed.
[03:12] Tani
    The one responsible was...
[03:22] Naka
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[03:23] Naka
    I got you a case.
[03:25] Naka
    Before that, though, here's a taser.
[03:29] Naka
    The Port Mafia's after you, too.
[03:31] Naka
    We wanted you to have it for self defense.
[03:32] Naka
    Well, I don't think you'll be in
    any danger this time, though.
[03:36] Kyo
    What kind of job is it?
[03:37] Naka
    You have to deliver this
    envelope with evidence
[03:39] Naka
    to a judge in court.
[03:42] Naka
    And this is the judge.
[03:45] Kyo
    Got it.
[03:46] Kyo
    I've memorized his face.
[03:48] Naka
    You're really into this.
[03:50] Naka
    Is it because it'll be your first job?
[03:52] Kyo
    No.
[03:54] Kyo
    My first job was to infiltrate
    a building and kill two people.
[03:59] Naka
    I see.
[04:01] Naka
    She's always been working.
[04:03] (Flashback) Aku
    Demon Snow is an ability to kill.
[04:06] (Flashback) Aku
    Only when killing someone does
    Kyouka's existence have meaning.
[04:12] Kyo
    I'll do my best.
[04:21] Kyo
    We can't go in?
[04:22] Guard
    You need a permit.
[04:24] Kyo
    But it's almost time.
[04:26] Guard
    Please sign in on that form
    and wait until you're called.
[04:31] Kyo
    But it's almost time.
[04:33] Guard
    Sorry, it's the rules.
[04:43] Naka
    Nope, the judge isn't picking up.
[04:46] Naka
    I guess there was some miscommunication.
[04:48] Naka
    We have to do something about the guard.
[04:52] Kyo
    You mean get rid of him?
[04:53] Naka
    Huh?
[04:54] Kyo
    First, I'll use my charms to
    lure him into a deserted place,
[04:58] Kyo
    then stab...
[04:59] Naka
    We don't do things like that at the Agency!
[05:04] Kyo
    Then I only know one other way.
[05:06] Naka
    Hey!
[05:07] Naka
    Kyouka-chan?

[05:30] Judge
    What's all this racket about?
[05:41] Kyou
    A delivery.
[05:47] Kyou
    Oops.
SIGN    Got in... a lot of trouble.
[05:56] Naka
    Here.
[06:00] Naka
    The president settled things.
[06:03] Naka
    He's friends with the judge.
[06:05] Kyo
    It was going so well up until
     the power outage...
[06:08] Naka
    So doing that was fine in your mind?
[06:13] Naka
    So you're still holding onto that phone.
[06:17] Kyo
    I had the service provider
    change the program.
[06:21] Kyo
    It's important to me.
[06:26] Naka
    About possibilities as we move forward...
[06:30] Naka
    If we can figure out the remaining
    unknowns about your ability,
[06:33] Naka
    and if you can control your Demon Snow
    without the voice from the phone,
[06:37] Naka
    then you can become an asset to the Agency—
[06:38] Kyo
    No!
[06:40] Kyo
    No.
[06:41] Kyo
    I'm never using Demon Snow again.
[06:53] Ko
    Demon Snow,
[06:56] Ko
    punish those who teach
    Kyouka a world of lies.
[07:07] Ko
    Though it is the blood of vermin,
     it's still beautiful when it splatters.

    Port Mafia Executive
    Omisaki Kouyou
[07:12] Ko
    Don't you agree?
[07:17] Ko
    My dear Kyouka...
[07:19] Ko
    Do you know how I worried
    for you and felt such pain
[07:25] Ko
    that I left you with animals and vermin?
[07:33] Ko
    But there is nothing to worry about now.
[07:37] Ko
    You need not concern yourself with anything.
[07:39] Ko
    I will protect you.
[07:42] Naka
    She is not going back to the Port Mafia.
[07:46] Naka
    Her strengths are for her
    to use in Agency jobs.
[07:57] Ko
    I knew I should have come for you without
    waiting for Ougai-dono's permission.
[08:03] Ko
    I cannot let you stay
    here for a moment longer
[08:05] Ko
    in this festering lair of hypocrisy.
[08:08] Ko
    You must have been led astray
    by their beguiling words
[08:11] Ko
    and mistaken their world
    for one full of light.
[08:14] Ko
    But they will eventually ask
    you to use your Demon Snow.
[08:20] Ko
    Let us return to the place where you belong.
[08:24] Naka
    Wait.
[08:25] Naka
    Where are you taking her?
[08:27] Naka
    The place where Kyouka-chan belongs...
[08:30] Naka
    is the Agency!
[08:34] Ko
    So slow.
[08:38] Naka
    A second demon?
[08:45] Koyo
    Maybe I'll finish my job first after all.
[08:48] Koyo
    Die, boy.
[08:50] Kyo
    No!
[08:53] Koyo
    Ougai-dono wishes all Agency
    operatives to be eradicated.
[08:58] Koyo
    However, I pleaded for
    your life to be spared,
[09:01] Koyo
    and he agreed to make a special exception.
[09:03] Koyo
    Come back, Kyouka.
[09:06] Koyo
    You are a flower born of darkness.
[09:08] Koyo
    You will only be at ease in the darkness.
[09:10] Kyo
    No.
[09:12] Kyo
    I am not a flower of darkness.
[09:18] Koyo
    She has been blinded by the light.
[09:24] Koyo
    It is a light you showed her.
[09:27] Koyo
    But fortunately, all is not lost.
[09:31] Koyo
    I doubt you would want to stay
    if the Agency no longer has him,
[09:35] Koyo
    even more so if he is killed because of you.
[09:39] Kyo
    Okay!
[09:41] Kyo
    I'll come back. So please.
[09:46] Koyo
    Everything is for you, Kyouka.
[09:53] Koyo
    You'll understand someday.
[09:58] Koyo
    How precious you are.
[10:17] Koyo
    Well done, Kyouka.
[10:19] Koyo
    I did not sense anything from you.
[10:22] Kyo
    I saw a bright world.
[10:25] Kyo
    I cannot go back to a time when
     I did not know such a thing existed.
[10:30] Koyo
    Don't use it, Kyouka.
[10:33] Koyo
    If you use it, you will...
[10:36] Kyo
    Demon Snow, defeat my enemy!
[10:44] John
    My Rocinante...
[10:46] John
    The roads in this country are too narrow.
[10:49] Love
    We'll just have to walk to our destination.
[10:52] Love
    I really want to finish
    this so we can go back.
[10:56] Love
    It's been four years since
    I was last outside.
[11:00] John
    Oh, well!
[11:02] John
    Let's go.
[11:03] John
    Our luggage is about to arrive.
[11:09] Koyo
    This blade is your true nature.
[11:11] Koyo
    You kill anyone as soon as you
    believe they are in your way.
[11:14] Koyo
    You are like a demon, yourself.
[11:15] Kyo
    No!
[11:17] Koyo
    I can understand why you think that.
[11:20] Koyo
    But a flower that has
    bloomed in the darkness
[11:22] Koyo
    can only be at ease in the darkness.
[11:25] Koyo
    Why do I know that?
[11:27] Koyo
    Because there was a woman who
    also craved the same light,
[11:30] Koyo
    but was burned by it and
    fell into the darkness.
[11:35] Koyo
    Come back, Kyouka.
[11:37] Kyo
    I don't want to.
[11:40] Kyo
    Despite everything, I still...
[11:42] Koyo
    You cannot change your true nature.
[11:44] Koyo
    You justify any killing
    to achieve our goals.
[11:48] Koyo
    If that were not true,
[11:49] Koyo
    you would not be able to
    use your demon like so.
[11:53] Koyo
    After all, your demon...
[11:56] Koyo
    killed your parents.
[12:01] Naka
    That's...
[12:03] Naka
    But why?
[12:05] Kyo
    No, this is...
[12:07] Koyo
    He would not understand.
[12:10] Koyo
    No one who lives in the world of light can.
[12:25] Koyo
    You no longer have to wield that blade in
    search of a place where you can belong.
[12:29] Koyo
    I will protect you.
[12:36] Kenji
    Please duck.
[12:43] Kenji
    Oh, look how it flies!
[12:45] Kuni
    Are you okay, Atsushi?!
[12:47] Naka
    Kunikida-san... Why are you here?
[12:50] Kuni
    I modified Kyouka's cell so that it'd
    send a signal if anyone called it.
[12:54] Kuni
    Get up.
[12:56] Kuni
    Why're you acting like a damsel in distress?
[12:59] Kuni
    A weretiger's supposed to be tough!
[13:02] Koyo
    Agency vermin!
[13:04] Koyo
    Don't show Kyouka any more
    of your toxic light!
[13:07] John
    Wow, what great timing.
[13:10] John
    It's like the split second
    before a collision.
[13:14] John
    If we could've come just a bit later,
     we would've had it easy.
[13:17] John
    Do you want in?
[13:18] Love
    I don't care either way,
[13:20] Love
    but all the stares are
    making me uncomfortable.

SIGN    Episode 17: Three Companies Conflict
[14:16] Nath
    Come to think of it...
[14:17] Nath
    Where is Sir Poe and Lady Louisa?
[14:20] Margaret
    They have a fear of heights,
    so they stayed behind.
[14:24] Margaret
    They should just die.
[14:26] Mark
    That was easy, Reverend.
[14:30] Nath
    May God have mercy on the sinful.
[14:43] Nath
    
[14:53] Naka
    Where am I?
[14:56] Naka
    I think there was an enemy attack...
[15:00] Yosano
    That's quite a superb critical
    injury you've got there, Atsushi.
[15:05] Yosano
    Well, it's time for treatment.
[15:11] ---
    I'll use this one today.
SIGN    The detectives have fully recovered, physically.
[15:20] Yosano
    What a helpless lot you are.
[15:23] Yosano
    Without my ability,
[15:25] Yosano
    you'd all be pushing up daisies by now.
[15:28] Fuku
    How are you all feeling?
[15:30] Kuni
    President...
[15:31] Kuni
    I'm sorry.
[15:33] Kuni
    I was there, and yet...
[15:34] Fuku
    All good.
[15:35] Fuku
    I'll be out for a bit.
[15:37] Naka
    But isn't it dangerous to go out right now?
[15:42] Yosano
    He's pretty riled up, from the looks of him.
[15:47] Ou
    Hey, Elise-chan...
[15:49] Ou
    Eating that much isn't
    good for your health...
[15:52] Erris
    Why?
[15:54] Erris
    Sweetness is justice.
[15:55] Ou
    Well, sure, but...
[15:57] Erris
    I can consider trying on the dress
    you bought me earlier, Rintarou.
[16:03] Ou
    Do you want seconds?
[16:05] Chuuya
    Boss, we received word that the
    Agency got to the scene ahead of us
[16:09] Chuuya
    and took Kouyou away.
[16:12] Chuuya
    We can't take rash action
[16:13] Chuuya
    now that one of the top five executives
    has been taken hostage.
[16:17] Ou
    Right...
[16:20] Ou
    Okay!
[16:21] Ou
    Let's kill the president of the Agency!
[16:24] Ou
    I prefer assassination.
[16:26] Ou
    If we hire outside contractors,
[16:28] Ou
    we'll spare ourselves the labor
[16:29] Ou
    and we can focus on confronting the Guild.
[16:40] Dazai
    Hey, Sister.
[16:44] Dazai
    It's been a while.
[16:46] Koyo
    It has indeed been a while, traitor.
[16:50] Koyo
    Boy, is Kyouka safe?
[16:55] Naka
    She's missing.
[16:59] Naka
    Because of you.
[17:06] Naka
    What's so funny?!
[17:09] Dazai
    Leave her to me.
[17:13] Naka
    Dazai-san!
[17:14] Dazai
    Just leave it, okay?
[17:19] Dazai
    Well, then.
[17:20] Dazai
    Sorry to get right to the point,
[17:22] Dazai
    but tell us where the
    Port Mafia's at in the conflict
[17:23] Dazai
    and what your strategy is moving forward.
[17:27] Koyo
    Have you forgotten the
    Port Mafia's code, boy?
[17:31] Koyo
    Those with loose tongues die first.
[17:33] Dazai
    Your subordinates were marked with a brand
    that identified them as torture specialists.
[17:37] Dazai
    On the rare occasion that they ran
    into trouble, I would help out...
[17:44] Dazai
    Can you recall a single hostage who
    didn't talk after I asked the questions?
[17:49] Dazai
    This is not for the eyes of children.
[17:54] Fuku
    All operatives are to leave
    the company building
[17:57] Fuku
    and gather at the former Bankoudou.
[18:00] Kuni
    Is that the place that used
    to be your headquarters
[18:03] Kuni
    before you founded the Agency, President?
[18:05] Fuku
    Only a select few know of that place.
[18:09] Fuku
    If we cannot keep our location secret,
[18:11] Fuku
    we'll be crushed by foes
    who have superior numbers.
[18:14] Kuni
    So the president is
    prepared to go to war...
[18:19] Fuku
    I seem to have visitors.
[18:22] Kuni
    President?
[18:23] Kuni
    What's the matter?
[18:26] Kuni
    President?
[18:29] Naka
    What's wrong?
[18:31] Kuni
    The call with the president just...
[18:33] Kuni
    Could it be an enemy attack?
[18:34] Naka
    What?
[18:35] Naka
    Then we should go help right away!
[18:37] Kuni
    The president is fine.
[18:38] Kuni
    More importantly—
[18:39] Naka
    How do you know that for sure?!
[18:47] Kuni
    Try to grab my hand.
[18:49] Kuni
    You'll figure it out right away.
[18:57] Kuni
    That's the first technique
    I learned from my master.
[19:01] Kuni
    I've never won a single match against him.
[19:04] Kuni
    He's not going to lose to a group
    of dime-a-dozen assassins.
[19:10] Fuku
    Go back to your master and
    tell him, "good try."
[19:15] Fuku
    Continue to target me and me alone!
[19:24] John
    Well done.
[19:26] John
    It seems the Agency has abandoned their office
     and hidden in a different facility.
[19:31] John
    It will be difficult to
    find their new location.
[19:33] John
    The Port Mafia have begun to
    make their move, as well.
[19:37] Francis
    When I was a boy...
[19:38] Francis
    I worked for two years to
    buy a gun like this,
[19:42] Francis
    but I still couldn't save enough,
     so I killed four men.
[19:45] Francis
    Now, I own the company that makes this gun.
[19:50] Francis
    Money is a nightmare.
[19:52] Francis
    Every time you obtain something you desire,
[19:55] Francis
    you lose something you desire.
[19:58] Francis
    Eventually, the world becomes as tiresome
    as blue smoke rising from burning leaves.
[20:04] Francis
    That's why, John...
[20:08] Francis
    my world is so bright right now.
[20:20] Francis
    That city will be mine.
[20:31] Fuku
    Listen, all.
[20:33] Fuku
    The Port Mafia seeks to
    eradicate the Agency.
[20:36] Fuku
    The Guild seeks to usurp the Agency.
[20:39] Fuku
    We must protect the Agency
    from these two foes.
[20:44] Fuku
    Dazai, explain.
[20:46] Dazai
    Yes, sir.
[20:48] Dazai
    The Guild has substantial financial assets,
[20:50] Dazai
    and the Port Mafia has
    the numerical advantage.
[20:52] Dazai
    So, we will split into defensive
    and offensive teams
[20:56] Dazai
    and engage in guerrilla tactics.
[20:59] Dazai
    The critical goal for the defense
    is to protect Yosano-sensei here.
SIGN    Defensive Team: Fukuzawa, Ranpo, Yosano, Kenji
[21:04] Dazai
    With her healing ability,
[21:05] Dazai
    as long as we don't die outright,
    we will be cured of any injury.
SIGN    Offensive Team A Kunikida, Tanizaki
[21:08] Dazai
    The offense will split into two teams,
[21:11] Dazai
    and surprise the enemy using
    Tanizaki-kun's subterfuge ability
SIGN    Offensive Team B Dazai, Atsushi
[21:15] Dazai
    and my nullification ability.
[21:17] Dazai
    The crux of this strategy is to keep
    our base of operations hidden.
[21:21] Dazai
    If our enemies were to hit us
    here with everything they have,
[21:24] Dazai
    our defense would not hold.
[21:29] Chu
    Boss, our assault ended in failure.
[21:33] Chu
    We've put a tail on him, but I suspect...
[21:36] Ou
    Very well.
[21:37] Ou
    It's all according to plan.
[21:39] Ou
    And?
[21:40] Ou
    What about the radioactive tracking element
    we put on the assassins' clothes?
[21:45] Chu
    We're getting a strong signal.
[21:47] ---
    
[21:47] Ou
    That's the Agency's secret hiding place.
[21:51] Fuku
    Only one of the three
    organizations can survive.
[21:54] Fuku
