[00:03] ---
    At this moment...
[00:04] ---
    I'm huddled on the floor of a dim stable,
    covered in mud from head to toe.

[00:09] ---
    Why am I covered in mud?
[00:11] ---
    Because the floor is mud.
[00:13] ---
    There are pigs all around me.
[00:15] ---
    It seems like I'm in a pigpen.
[00:17] ---
    My body feels heavy,
    and I can't budge my limbs an inch.

[00:21] ---
    I'm just lying here in the mud
    with the other pigs.

[00:24] ---
    Something's wrong with my eyes, too.
[00:26] ---
    My vision must be blurry
    because I don't have my glasses on.

[00:29] ---
    The smell of dirt... The smell of manure...
[00:31] ---
    The smell of straw... The smell of rust...
[00:34] ---
    An overpowering blend of pigpen scents
    is stimulating my nostrils.

[00:40] ---
    No, stop! Please don't step on me!
[00:45] ---
    I'm saved.
[00:47] ---
    She hasn't noticed?
[00:49] ---
    It seems like she's giving
    the pigs their feed.

[00:52] ---
    It seems she has no interest in this
    male college student collapsed in the mud.

[00:57] ---
    Help me.
[00:59] ---
    I'm sorry I'm not being coherent, but...
[01:02] ---
    I can't move my body in this pigpen!
[01:04] ---
    H-Help me!
[01:06] ---
    Grunt!
[01:07] ---
    I'm just a modest, boring, science nerd,
    but this language is new to me.

[01:12] ---
    Sure, I've been known to grunt at the end
    of my sentences, but that was deliberate.

[01:16] ---
    Now this will go down as my dazzling first step,
    unwittingly belching out a gross sound effect.

[01:21] ---
    I hope you commend me heartily
    for that. Grunt!

[01:23] ---
    Oh, my goodness!
[01:24] ---
    You're not a pig, are you?
[01:26] ---
    That's right.
[01:27] ---
    Not all creatures living in a pigpen are pigs.
[01:30] ---
    What a close call!
    That one mistake could've been fatal!

[01:34] ---
    Huh?
[01:35] ---
    Was it this woman who just spoke?
[01:37] ---
    I'll get you out of the shed right away.
[01:39] ---
    Just wait a moment, all right?
[01:41] ---
    It's not as though she can hear my voice.
[01:43] ---
    It seems like the information
    is being sent directly to her brain.

[01:48] ---
    The only thing I'm sure of
    is that I can understand what she's thinking.

[01:52] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting!
    Whoops-a-daisy!
[01:55] ---
    This is when I realized
    a fatally inconvenient truth.

[02:00] ---
    My body isn't this round.
[02:03] ---
    Height, 174 cm.
[02:05] ---
    Weight, 53 kg.
[02:07] ---
    A prototypical male science nerd.
[02:10] ---
    The sensation of this woman
    touching my body...

[02:12] ---
    and how it feels right now to be plopped
    onto this board... This is precisely...

[02:18] ---
    as a budding researcher who's able
    to observe his own body objectively...

[02:23] ---
    I accepted this truth in an instant.
[02:26] ---
    I...
[02:28] ---
    Um...
[02:29] ---
    We're almost there, all right?
[02:32] ---
    I'd...
[02:33] ---
    turned into a pig!
[02:36] ---
    That's right.
[02:37] ---
    The one thing I want to convey to you
    through this tale is...

[02:42] ---
    Heat the pig liver!
[02:42] ---
    Butareba -The Story of a Man Turned into a Pig-
[02:44] ---
    That's it.
[02:51] ---
    Oh, so that's it, huh? So I'm a pig?
[02:53] ---
    Meaning that this is a dream, right?
[02:55] ---
    Hmm, but listen,
    exceptional brain of mine...

[02:59] ---
    This is precisely a pig's color perception.
[03:01] ---
    There are only two types of visual pigment for pigs.
    And they can't distinguish between colors.

[03:06] ---
    Not that I can see her clearly,
    but I hope she's a beautiful girl.

[03:09] ---
    It would be amazing
    if she could brush my soiled body!

[03:13] ---
    I hope her skirt's on the short side.
[03:14] ---
    As a pig, I'd be able to get a peek
    from below any time I wanted.

[03:18] ---
    I wonder how old she is.
[03:20] ---
    Is she a JK? Not a JK, is she?
[03:22] ---
    If she's a beautiful blonde high school girl,
    that would make my day.

[03:36] ---
    Is the dream over?
    Still, that was one weird storyline.

[03:39] ---
    I never would've had such a wacky dream
    if I hadn't eaten that raw pig liver.

[03:44] ---
    After which, I was wracked by searing stomach pains
    on the train platform, unable to stand...

[03:48] ---
    and that's the last thing I remember.
[03:51] ---
    Someone must've taken me
    to a hospital, right?

[03:54] ---
    Huh? Not a hospital?
[03:57] ---
    Something's wrong with my shoulder.
[03:59] ---
    I can't get my body to move.
[04:01] ---
    Why can't I spread my arms sideways?
[04:03] ---
    Oh...
[04:04] ---
    Are you awake now?
[04:06] ---
    Um, how are you feeling now?
[04:09] ---
    Grunt!
[04:10] ---
    Oh, you don't have to force yourself to speak.
[04:13] ---
    Because, you see...
[04:15] ---
    I can understand you.
[04:16] ---
    Is this still that same dream?
[04:18] ---
    I'm sorry!
[04:19] ---
    I did everything I could, but...
[04:21] ---
    I wasn't able to turn you
    back into human form.
[04:25] ---
    I'm too confused.
[04:26] ---
    I just want to get up
    and see what's going on.

[04:44] ---
    Huh?
[04:51] ---
    Huh? What's going on?
[04:52] ---
    Why am I a pig?
[04:55] ---
    Why you've become a pig...
[04:58] ---
    I'm sorry.
[04:59] ---
    I don't know the answer
    to that, either.
[05:01] ---
    You'd strayed into the pigpen...
[05:03] ---
    that I'm in charge of.
[05:05] ---
    I see.
[05:06] ---
    But from what she's saying, this beautiful girl
    seems to know I used to be a human.

[05:11] ---
    Can't you see it? This here.
[05:14] ---
    I hate to break it to her,
    but it doesn't look good on her.

[05:17] ---
    It doesn't look good on me? I knew it.
[05:21] ---
    Hey! This beautiful girl...
    is reading my mind?

[05:23] ---
    Um, I'm a Yethma.
[05:26] ---
    I haven't introduced myself yet.
[05:28] ---
    I serve House Kiltyrin. I'm a Yethma.
[05:31] ---
    My name is Jess.
[05:34] ---
    Yethma?
[05:35] ---
    Not sure what's going on here,
    but I'm a pig.

[05:37] ---
    Nice to meet you.
[05:39] ---
    Um, where are you from, Mister Pig?
[05:42] ---
    I am from Tokyo, Japan.
[05:44] ---
    Nice to meet you, Jess!
[05:46] ---
    Um...
[05:47] ---
    Tokio?
[05:49] ---
    I'm sorry, I'm so uneducated.
[05:51] ---
    I don't know anything
    about what's outside this country.
[05:54] ---
    But if you've never heard of a Yethma,
    you must not be from Mesteria.
[05:59] ---
    Yes, I think that's probably true.
[06:01] ---
    Wait, but what's this Mesteria?
[06:04] ---
    Where are we right now?
[06:09] ---
    Oh?
[06:18] ---
    If I may explain...
[06:20] ---
    Mesteria refers to the entire stretch
    of this land here.
[06:25] ---
    The great king rules over it all.
[06:29] ---
    This area is known as south Mesteria.
[06:31] ---
    It's just outside Kiltyrie, and it's the home
    of House Kiltyrin, which rules over Kiltyrie.
[06:36] ---
    I see.
[06:37] ---
    So, what's a Yethma?
[06:39] ---
    We belong to the servant class.
[06:41] ---
    We're distinctive for wearing
    these silver collars, and...
[06:44] ---
    How should I put it?
[06:46] ---
    We can communicate with our minds,
    without relying on speech or hearing.
[06:50] ---
    No wonder you could answer
    all the questions that rose up in my mind.

[06:54] ---
    Um, don't you think
    you should have something to eat?
[06:58] ---
    I don't know if it's what you like...
[07:00] ---
    but I've brought you some fruit.
[07:02] ---
    Huh. I'm not that hungry.
[07:04] ---
    To be honest...
[07:05] ---
    right now, I'm dying to be stroked,
    for some reason.

[07:14] ---
    All I have to do
    is ask and I receive!

[07:18] ---
    Now I finally get it.
[07:19] ---
    My dream has morphed into a scene
    from an isekai fantasy stage!

[07:23] ---
    The hero is a pig!
[07:25] ---
    The heroine has the ability to read minds!
[07:27] ---
    Reincarnated into an unfamiliar world,
    this man tries to regain his human form...

[07:30] ---
    by flirting with the heroine
    every chance he gets,

[07:32] ---
    and fighting heroically,
    armed with swords and magic!

[07:34] ---
    Wait, hold on. Hold up now.
[07:36] ---
    Before we get this lovey-dovey fantasy started,
    I'd like to get one thing straight.

[07:40] ---
    This girl named Jess can read minds, right?
[07:43] ---
    That's how she could tell in the pigpen
    that I was a human, not a pig.

[07:47] ---
    So, if I gaze
    upon that pure skin of hers...

[07:49] ---
    and go, "Oink, oink! I wanna jump her! Oink!
[07:53] ---
    I wanna cover her with my pig slobber! Oink!"
    If I think something like that...

[07:57] ---
    will she be able to pick up all that?
[08:01] ---
    Yes.
[08:02] ---
    Well, I guess you could say so.
[08:04] ---
    Oh, crap!
[08:05] ---
    Then, it's like I'm just broadcasting
    my swinelike desires!

[08:08] ---
    Um, I believe you wanted me to brush you,
[08:12] ---
    so I cleansed your body
    while you were asleep.
[08:15] ---
    I also made my skirt shorter.
[08:18] ---
    Listening to your thoughts
    without your permission...
[08:21] ---
    As a foreigner, you surely
    wouldn't have found that pleasant.
[08:24] ---
    I'm really...
[08:26] ---
    truly sorry!
[08:28] ---
    This girl...
    Isn't she too sweet to believe?

[08:32] ---
    A chair, food, stroking...
[08:34] ---
    If I think, "I want to see you naked,"
    I bet she'd shed her clothes.

[08:37] ---
    Well, they're meager
    and there's not much to see, but...
[08:40] ---
    if you wish to—
[08:41] ---
    H-Hold on a second!
[08:44] ---
    I have three or so things to say.
[08:45] ---
    Listen to me, young maiden.
[08:47] ---
    Yes?
[08:48] ---
    First off, I can tell even by your clothing...
[08:51] ---
    that those things of yours
    are in no way meager!

[08:54] ---
    In fact, there are tons of species among nerds
    who prefer that size, so rest assured.

[08:58] ---
    Um, thank you very much!
[09:01] ---
    And now for Number Two.
[09:02] ---
    What I'm about to convey to you
    will be delivered as dialogue in my mind...

[09:06] ---
    and I'm going to add effects, like this.
[09:09] ---
    Effects?
[09:10] ---
    Everything other than that is my monologue.
[09:12] ---
    I want you to ignore it!
[09:14] ---
    Monologue?
[09:16] ---
    I mean the inner thoughts
    that I don't want you to hear.

[09:19] ---
    Otherwise, I'll sound like an old slimeball
    saying things with lewd undertones.

[09:24] ---
    Not that that would really bother me.
[09:26] ---
    That was my monologue just now,
    so no need to reply.

[09:30] ---
    You're right! I'm sorry.
[09:32] ---
    And last but not least, Number Three.
[09:34] ---
    This is going to sound haughty
    for a mere pig, but is that okay?

[09:37] ---
    Um...
[09:38] ---
    I'll be fine.
[09:40] ---
    Everything you did for me
    was thoughtful and amazing, all of it!

[09:44] ---
    I'm really thrilled that you cleaned me up...
[09:46] ---
    and that skirt looks great on you,
    not to mention the length is satisfactory.

[09:50] ---
    I won't come right out with it, but that pure white
    fabric becomes you, and I find it perfect.

[09:56] ---
    Since it looks like you're on to me,
    I'm going to confess.

[09:59] ---
    My first thought upon becoming a pig
    was to long to be brushed by a beautiful blonde girl.

[10:05] ---
    And you've shown me the utmost hospitality
    in every way I could think of.

[10:08] ---
    "JK" doesn't seem to exist
    as a concept here, either.

[10:12] ---
    J...
[10:13] ---
    Oh no, I'm honored!
[10:15] ---
    That's right! You're incredible!
[10:17] ---
    But see, if you just keep making
    my every wish come true, the thing is...

[10:23] ---
    it's not realistic!
[10:24] ---
    I mean, you're not a fairy
    who exists to fulfill my desires, right?

[10:27] ---
    Whatever it is that I want,
    you're not obligated to grant it.

[10:31] ---
    Yes...
[10:32] ---
    but if there's anything I can do,
    I want to do it for you.
[10:36] ---
    You don't get it, do you?
[10:38] ---
    Then, I guess I'll come right out and say it.
[10:40] ---
    Seeing you brace yourself like that
    makes it awkward for me...

[10:43] ---
    but this is what I'd personally
    request in my dream.

[10:47] ---
    Here, Brother...
[10:48] ---
    I've added some whitebait
    to your fried eggs today!

[10:52] ---
    Lunches made by my devoted,
    sweet little sister every day...

[10:56] ---
    Pig.
[10:57] ---
    A little sister who normally
    treats me like a pig.

[10:59] ---
    Thanks for helping me
    with my homework yesterday.

[11:03] ---
    I'm only doing this today, okay?
[11:05] ---
    The lunch she made for me
    with that disclaimer!

[11:06] ---
    Which one tastes better?
[11:08] ---
    No, of course they both taste awesome!
[11:10] ---
    But it's definitely the second one for me!
[11:12] ---
    No objections allowed!
[11:13] ---
    Translate that, and...
[11:17] ---
    Jess...
[11:20] ---
    I'm very sorry to impose
    my personal preferences on you...

[11:23] ---
    but I just don't want
    to receive one-sided kindness.

[11:26] ---
    A pig has about zero ability
    to repay your kindness.

[11:29] ---
    The more kindness you show me,
    the more my debt to you will keep piling up.

[11:33] ---
    And that kind of thing, you know...
    makes me feel lousy.

[11:36] ---
    So, if you're really looking out for me,
[11:39] ---
    then I'd like you to just help me
    with what I ask you for.

[11:43] ---
    And I'll do everything in my power
    as a pig to return the favor.

[11:47] ---
    See, I don't want you
    to be overly considerate.

[11:50] ---
    Because you're not my servant.
[11:53] ---
    Are you sure about that?
[11:55] ---
    If you treat me like a pig all the time,
[11:58] ---
    then offer me a helping hand
    only when I'm in real trouble,

[12:01] ---
    it's more of a turn-on.
[12:02] ---
    Oh...
[12:03] ---
    Like nudity...
    I'd want you to stash that for a rainy day.

[12:08] ---
    So it's not as if you don't want
    to see it, right?
[12:10] ---
    Uh, that was my monologue.
[12:14] ---
    Otakus Enjoy Being Treated Like Pigs
[12:19] ---
    From the blue sky,
    the soft sunlight streams over my back...

[12:22] ---
    and the fresh breeze is so comforting.
[12:25] ---
    The wind causes her skirt hem to flutter...
[12:27] ---
    serving its purpose like a boss.
[12:30] ---
    The sunlight penetrating through
    the dark blue fabric and the reflective light...

[12:34] ---
    bouncing back off of the green grass
    faintly shimmers as they mingle together...

[12:38] ---
    all the while, showing a glimpse
    of the pure white fabric that...

[12:41] ---
    Excuse me. You can walk
    a little closer to me.
[12:45] ---
    It's all good. I was merely describing
    the scene just now.

[12:48] ---
    I have no ulterior motives toward you.
[12:50] ---
    Oh, is that right?
[12:52] ---
    Your description was just so graphic.
[12:57] ---
    Also...
[12:57] ---
    Huh?
[12:58] ---
    My name is Jess.
[13:00] ---
    Please call me Jess.
[13:02] ---
    Oink! Cutie-pie Jess!
[13:04] ---
    Fine.
[13:05] ---
    Nice to meet you, Jess.
[13:07] ---
    Nice to meet you, too...
[13:08] ---
    Mister Pig!
[13:10] ---
    This is a reward!
[13:12] ---
    Who could've guessed I'd be on a first-name basis
    with a blonde beauty and be called "a pig"?

[13:18] ---
    No, can't be done!
    And most people can never experience it!

[13:21] ---
    The poor, sad sacks!
[13:22] ---
    But now, I'm starting not to care that she's listening
    to every one of these monologues!

[13:27] ---
    A human-turned-pig going,
    "Nice to meet you, Jess," in such a cool way...

[13:31] ---
    but behind the scenes, he's going,
    "Oink, oink"... Is that a paradox or what?

[13:36] ---
    Cutie-pie Jess, this is how men are!
    Pay close attention!

[13:41] ---
    Sorry.
[13:41] ---
    Pretend you didn't hear that.
[13:43] ---
    Right. I think I've started to figure it out.
[13:47] ---
    That's the farm over there.
[13:50] ---
    There are tons of sweet chickens here!
[13:57] ---
    Huh! Damn chickens.
[14:00] ---
    Please don't bully them too much.
[14:02] ---
    My bad! That's what pigs do.
[14:05] ---
    If you do it again...
[14:06] ---
    then I'm going to bully you, Mister Pig!
[14:09] ---
    Oink!
[14:14] ---
    Please wait for a bit.
[14:17] ---
    I'm going to go tend to them.
[14:25] ---
    Wow!
[14:27] ---
    Jess, these tools operating,
    and the lanterns shining...

[14:30] ---
    How does that all work?
[14:32] ---
    On this farm...
[14:33] ---
    we use ristae to take care of the animals.
[14:37] ---
    Ristae?
[14:38] ---
    Oh, pardon me. Being a foreigner,
    you wouldn't have heard of them, right?
[14:43] ---
    They're stones like these.
[14:45] ---
    Ristae are created
    by a great mage on a daily basis.
[14:50] ---
    They're being circulated for us citizens.
[14:54] ---
    There's magic power stored inside them...
[14:56] ---
    and you can use them
    in all kinds of ways.
[15:00] ---
    Yellow is for movement and light...
[15:02] ---
    red is for heat and flames... like that.
[15:04] ---
    So, they're like magical batteries, huh?
[15:06] ---
    About how many types are there?
[15:08] ---
    Mainly five.
[15:10] ---
    Yellow, red, green, blue...
[15:14] ---
    and...
[15:15] ---
    black!
[15:15] ---
    Black?
[15:16] ---
    Is that a dark attribute?
[15:18] ---
    No. Black is for prayer.
[15:20] ---
    If you use a black rista for prayer...
[15:23] ---
    you can cause a miracle
    that only mages can achieve.
[15:27] ---
    Though only a few use them.
[15:29] ---
    Why only a few?
[15:31] ---
    Black is the only one
    that only Yethmas can use.
[15:35] ---
    At House Kiltyrin, we only use them
    to heal illness and injury...
[15:39] ---
    but the effects depend
    on how intensely the Yethma prays.
[15:43] ---
    As for laymen...
[15:45] ---
    almost none of them ever seem to react.
[15:47] ---
    So, it's like an item that's been nerfed
    because it's a huge cheat.

[15:51] ---
    Mister Pig...
[15:52] ---
    Huh?
[15:53] ---
    I'll be done cleaning this place soon...
[15:56] ---
    so...
[15:57] ---
    if you could...
[15:59] ---
    go play outside like the pig you are...
[16:07] ---
    That desire to please...
[16:08] ---
    showing in the way she so awkwardly tries
    to treat me like a pig...

[16:14] ---
    I'm so moved!
[16:24] ---
    The bare legs of the skirt-clad blonde beauty...
[16:27] ---
    are right there at almost zero distance.
[16:29] ---
    Once again, what a unique situation.
[16:32] ---
    Excuse me, Mister Pig,
    but I'm not a beauty.
[16:35] ---
    A true beauty...
[16:37] ---
    would never acknowledge
    that she's a beauty.

[16:40] ---
    All right, then, I'm a beauty!
[16:44] ---
    If she acknowledges herself as a beauty,
    then she's not a beauty!

[16:46] ---
    She's a smart one!
[16:49] ---
    That's right!
[16:50] ---
    What?
[16:51] ---
    Why would that be right?
[16:57] ---
    Jess's skirt flutters upward...
[16:59] ---
    and the white fabric inside
    can be glimpsed...

[17:07] ---
    Please don't worry.
[17:09] ---
    You can't help seeing
    what happens to be visible.
[17:11] ---
    Are you an angel?
[17:13] ---
    No, I'm not an angel!
[17:15] ---
    Um, if you compliment me
    more than I deserve...
[17:18] ---
    it's extremely embarrassing...
[17:20] ---
    so if you keep calling me
    a "beauty" or an "angel"...
[17:23] ---
    I'm going to have to spank you, Mister Pig!
[17:26] ---
    Oink! Getting spanked by a beautiful
    young girl would be a reward!

[17:30] ---
    Cutie-pie Jess, you're a real angel!
    A great angel! A mind-blowing beauty!

[17:34] ---
    M-Mister Pig...
[17:36] ---
    I think you're quite wonderful yourself.
[17:39] ---
    Huh? Which part of me
    makes you say that?

[17:42] ---
    My body is a livestock,
    but my brain is an otaku!

[17:44] ---
    I am a dirty scrawny four-eyed virgin!
[17:47] ---
    But Mister Pig,
    you're just who you appear to be.
[17:50] ---
    You mean I'm a pig inside
    as well as outside?

[17:54] ---
    Um...
[17:55] ---
    That's not what I meant.
[17:57] ---
    There aren't many people
    who are kind even in their thoughts.
[18:02] ---
    Are you surrounded by mean people?
[18:05] ---
    No! They're all quite nice!
[18:09] ---
    But since I'm a Yethma and a servant...
[18:12] ---
    I don't often get the chance
    to make friends.
[18:15] ---
    And not many people
    really pay me any mind.
[18:18] ---
    Grunt.
[18:19] ---
    Everyone's kind to those they're close to.
[18:23] ---
    Meaning you're a servant,
    so you can't hang out with others, right?

[18:27] ---
    What do you usually do to kill time?
[18:30] ---
    Let's see.
[18:32] ---
    I read books.
[18:33] ---
    Oh? What kind?
[18:34] ---
    Uh...
[18:35] ---
    Um...
[18:36] ---
    I read fairy tales.
[18:38] ---
    I like those, too! Dreamy stories!
[18:44] ---
    Even someone like me...
[18:45] ---
    can go on adventures when I'm reading...
[18:48] ---
    and I can wield magic...
[18:50] ---
    and even get the chance
    to meet a prince!
[18:53] ---
    That's just lovely, don't you think?
[18:55] ---
    True, getting spanked by a blonde beauty
    is also possible in theory, at least in books.

[19:01] ---
    Do you really want me to do that?
[19:03] ---
    No, don't pay any attention
    to my inner thoughts!

[19:05] ---
    Anyway...
[19:06] ---
    even a girl like you
    dreams of meeting a prince, huh?

[19:10] ---
    Uh... I meant...
[19:12] ---
    I meant that as an example!
[19:14] ---
    I see.
[19:15] ---
    Well, let me just say
    that the spanking's only an example, too!

[19:18] ---
    You're right.
[19:20] ---
    An example, nothing more.
[19:22] ---
    But...
[19:24] ---
    to have someone who'd stay by my side
    to help me when I'm in trouble...
[19:29] ---
    like a prince...
[19:31] ---
    I've thought about how wonderful
    that would be.
[19:35] ---
    Are you in some kind of trouble?
[19:38] ---
    N-No!
[19:39] ---
    It's not that I'm in trouble!
[19:42] ---
    But you never know,
    I might be in the future.
[19:44] ---
    I see.
[19:46] ---
    I hope you'll get to meet
    your prince sometime.

[19:49] ---
    Yes!
[19:57] ---
    Jess...
[19:58] ---
    Yes?
[19:59] ---
    Do people often turn into pigs
    in this country?

[20:07] ---
    Perhaps I don't know because
    I'm not very well-versed...
[20:11] ---
    but I don't think
    there are many cases like that.
[20:14] ---
    Over a hundred years ago,
    during the dark ages...
[20:16] ---
    when the mages were still at war...
[20:19] ---
    I hear that they would use magic power
    to turn people into animals.
[20:25] ---
    Those mages...
[20:27] ---
    They're all gone now?
[20:29] ---
    No...
[20:30] ---
    they're still with us.
[20:31] ---
    Here in Mesteria...
[20:33] ---
    they say that only the family
    of the great king...
[20:35] ---
    are descended from the only mage
    to survive the dark ages.
[20:41] ---
    So, for me to return to my original body...
[20:46] ---
    Your only option is to go
    to the royal capital and see the king.
[20:51] ---
    Meaning I'd have to see
    your country's king and say...

[20:53] ---
    "Will you please turn me back?"
[20:55] ---
    That's my only option?
[20:58] ---
    Um...
[20:59] ---
    Huh?
[21:00] ---
    I would be happy to go with you.
[21:03] ---
    Hey!
[21:04] ---
    You have your own life to live, Jess.
[21:08] ---
    Actually...
[21:09] ---
    I'll be taking a leave of absence
    to go to the royal capital.
[21:14] ---
    To the royal capital?
[21:16] ---
    Yes.
[21:17] ---
    As a servant of House Kiltyrin...
    as part of my job.
[21:20] ---
    But wouldn't bringing a pig with you
    seem disrespectful to the king?

[21:23] ---
    I'm told that the king
    is a person of great benevolence.
[21:26] ---
    Once he hears your story,
    I'm sure that he'll come to your aid.
[21:32] ---
    Then, by all means, take me with you!
[21:35] ---
    Yes!
[21:37] ---
    Still, the instant I arrived in a condition
    that only the king can cure...

[21:41] ---
    you were set to travel
    to the royal capital Jess?

[21:44] ---
    It sounds about as convenient
    as a contrived plot!

[21:47] ---
    Come on, dream! You can do better.
[21:51] ---
    Perhaps this is fate?
[21:53] ---
    Huh?
[21:54] ---
    So, the goal was to make
    the beautiful girl utter that, huh?

[21:57] ---
    Then you're forgiven.
    No, actually, forgive me, my subconscious.

[22:02] ---
    Well, but...
[22:03] ---
    even if you're only talking to a pig...
[22:05] ---
    if you're in a skirt,
    you should still watch how you squat.

[22:12] ---
    Please forgive me!
[22:14] ---
    I just showed you something insubstantial!
[22:17] ---
    Humph!
[22:18] ---
    If that's what you think...
[22:21] ---
    then I'd love to be shown
    something more interesting next time.
