[00:12] ---
    What the heck is this?!
[00:14] ---
    What's this?
[00:15] ---
    Croquette...
[00:17] ---
    Do you believe it?
    This is just made from potatoes.
[00:22] ---
    Yours are good too, Kirika-chan!
[00:24] ---
    That's salmon croquette, right?
[00:27] ---
    This is ludicrous.
[00:29] ---
    I guess the wrong way will never
    triumph over the right way.
[00:31] ---
    No, no. I didn't have time or ingredients,
    so I just whipped this up.
[00:36] ---
    Didn't I help?
[00:38] ---
    You did your best. Well done, well done.
[00:41] ---
    I'll put a curse on you!
[00:43] ---
    Fear-chan's love-packed
    croquettes are the best!
[00:46] ---
    So I'm gonna return the love!
[00:49] ---
    Yachi. Isn't that Konoha-kun ?
[00:53] ---
    Wonder what she wants...
[00:54] ---
    Well, I have to prepare
    for my afternoon classes.
[00:57] ---
    Hey, Fear-chan. Tell me!
[01:00] ---
    You're living together now, right?
[01:02] ---
    What's Muramasa-san like?
[01:05] ---
    What?! You two are gossiping
    about Konoha-san?
[01:09] ---
    When it comes to something like that...
[01:11] ---
    I want in!
[01:13] ---
    In a word, she's an eyesore.
[01:15] ---
    All the nutrition she takes in
    goes directly to her boobs.
[01:17] ---
    Those cow udders really are unsightly!
[01:19] ---
    C-Could this be the
    beginning of a "triangle"?!
[01:23] ---
    Father won't allow that!
[01:24] ---
    A bashful bastard like Haruaki can't
    get mixed up in a situation like that!
[01:28] ---
    Triangle? What do you mean?
[01:31] ---
    Just what I was hoping for!
[01:32] ---
    Fear-chan's the type that
    doesn't realize what's going on!
[01:35] ---
    My heartstrings are being pulled
    so tight, I think I'm gonna die!
[01:37] ---
    Immature, undeveloped love...
[01:39] ---
    When a girl notices it,
    she becomes aware of being a woman.
[01:44] ---
    No, Father most certainly won't allow that!
[01:46] ---
    Love?
[01:48] ---
    Is that good?!
[02:17] ---
    Beyond the shadows
[02:19] ---
    that fill this totally unknown town
[02:23] ---
    there you are
[02:27] ---
    The magic of your smile
[02:30] ---
    has the power to transform
    the constant, daily replays

[02:34] ---
    of the same scene over and over
[02:37] ---
    When I'm hopelessly lost in yesterday
[02:40] ---
    even though I can't fix anything about it
[02:42] ---
    your kindness
[02:45] ---
    gives me light
[02:50] ---
    I always, always want to be by your side
[02:54] ---
    and deeply embrace love
[03:00] ---
    Chance encounters are but a single
[03:05] ---
    endless story
[03:23] ---
    "Chapter 6" "Weak, Like a Spherical Glass"
[03:23] ---
    Well, thank you for coming.
[03:25] ---
    Have you gotten used to
    the school, Fear-chan?
[03:29] ---
    I-I guess, except for you...
[03:34] ---
    I have a favor to ask you three today.
[03:38] ---
    Zenon-kun...
[03:39] ---
    Yes.
[03:43] ---
    I'm acquainted with the owner
    of an antique store in the next town over.
[03:47] ---
    Um, what was his message again?
[03:50] ---
    "This is a cursed doll.
[03:52] ---
    My daughter has lost her spirit
    and this is definitely the cause.
[03:56] ---
    Leave it in the care of that
    place we talked about."
[03:59] ---
    "That place we talked about"?
[04:01] ---
    I have heard gossip before about
    a certain place that takes in cursed items.
[04:12] ---
    Don't you think you should ask
    for more details about it?
[04:16] ---
    Actually...
[04:19] ---
    right after bringing it here,
    he died of a disease.
[04:27] ---
    As for his daughter,
    I put her on the school register,
[04:31] ---
    but she hasn't come in all this time...
[04:35] ---
    Well, before you take it off my hands,
    I'd like you to have a look at it.
[04:40] ---
    Zenon-kun...
[04:45] ---
    Unfortunately, that appears impossible.
[04:49] ---
    What do you mean?
[04:51] ---
    In short, it's empty.
[04:53] ---
    That's peculiar. What's going on here?
[04:56] ---
    Either it was stolen...
    or it got out on its own.
[05:01] ---
    I see. That is a possibility too, isn't it?
[05:04] ---
    Although there aren't many items
    that can become people...
[05:12] ---
    Okay. I'll slightly change
    the nature of the favor.
[05:17] ---
    And so, search for that missing doll!
[05:22] ---
    I knew it!
[05:24] ---
    You don't want to do it?
[05:27] ---
    It's okay. I'll solve this by myself.
[05:31] ---
    I'll find the doll.
[05:33] ---
    All right?
[05:34] ---
    Wait a second, Fear!
[05:36] ---
    What's this about?
[05:38] ---
    The only way to break my curse
    is by doing things for other people, right?
[05:41] ---
    But why by yourself?
[05:44] ---
    I'm indebted to the President.
[05:46] ---
    The issue is that even if it is around,
    you won't be able to find it on your own.
[05:50] ---
    What are you talking about?!
[05:52] ---
    Anyway, I'm absolutely not
    gonna accept your help,
[05:54] ---
    you busybody, fault-finding Cow Udders!
[05:58] ---
    Okay, everyone!
[06:00] ---
    Let's go meow-meow together
    in heaven and hell today, too!
[06:03] ---
    Excuse me. I have a phone call.
[06:06] ---
    That was from "Meow Meow Paradise Hell"!
[06:10] ---
    Totally mismatched with her...
[06:13] ---
    That was my big sister, Ganon,
    calling from the infirmary.
[06:16] ---
    She said five or six students have
    collapsed and it's a chaotic situation,
[06:20] ---
    so she wants my help.
[06:22] ---
    Five or six? That's certainly
    not run-of-the-mill.
[06:25] ---
    What's the cause?
[06:26] ---
    At this time, unknown.
[06:28] ---
    There are no commonalities other than
    the fact that they were all found alone.
[06:33] ---
    My sister said it's just like they had
    the energy sucked right out of them.
[06:41] ---
    Hey, Fear! What are you going to do?!
[06:43] ---
    You don't have to follow me!
    I'm going to capture it by myself!
[06:47] ---
    Like I'm gonna let you go it alone!
[06:49] ---
    Yeesh! By the way, where are we running to?
[06:58] ---
    Hey, Miss! Don't tell me you don't...
[07:01] ---
    Y-You got a problem?!
    I wasn't running around cluelessly!
[07:06] ---
    Is that right? Then let me know
    what you had in mind.
[07:09] ---
    Th-That's... How can I explain it...?
[07:13] ---
    In a word, instinct!
[07:15] ---
    That means you don't have a clue!
[07:18] ---
    W-What?! I'll put a curse on you!
[07:21] ---
    She said they were all found alone, right?
[07:24] ---
    So I ran to a place like that,
    where there aren't any other students.
[07:27] ---
    You just thought of that now, didn't you?
[07:29] ---
    For a spur of the moment reason,
    that actually makes sense.
[07:40] ---
    What is it?!
[07:41] ---
    I think something moved over there!
[07:46] ---
    I-I really am fine alone!
[07:48] ---
    You don't have to follow me! Got it?!
[07:51] ---
    Pain in the ass...
[08:08] ---
    Fluttering thing, stop right where you are!
[08:20] ---
    You're the doll, aren't you?
[08:22] ---
    It's annoying having to move my own body.
[08:26] ---
    It's a pain to be human.
[08:29] ---
    Then you're not used to
    a human body yet, huh, doll?
[08:33] ---
    I am a perfect doll that has sovereignty.
[08:36] ---
    I have been named
    Sovereignty Perfection Doll,
[08:40] ---
    though you may call me
    what you will... human.
[08:44] ---
    Unfortunately, you and I are kindred.
[08:48] ---
    Kindred?
[08:51] ---
    S-Someone's fallen!
[08:53] ---
    Um, something's happened to this person!
[08:57] ---
    Oh, Shiraho. Long time no see.
[09:01] ---
    Thanks to you, that trunk
    was really cramped.
[09:05] ---
    Why...? Why are you doing this?
[09:09] ---
    Because it's necessary.
    You understand, don't you?
[09:13] ---
    You may want me to go back
    in there, but nothing doing.
[09:17] ---
    I'm never getting in there again.
[09:22] ---
    Sovereignty...
[09:24] ---
    That gives you the picture, doesn't it?
[09:26] ---
    It doesn't give me the picture at all!
[09:29] ---
    What the heck is going on here?!
[09:32] ---
    I think... No, I'm certain that you're
    the daughter of the antique shop owner!
[09:38] ---
    Yeah...
[09:39] ---
    I hate humans.
[09:41] ---
    That's right, I hate humans.
[09:43] ---
    As long as we got paid for the puppet play,
    I could spend the rest of the time
[09:48] ---
    like a doll, just sleeping
    behind the curtain...
[09:51] ---
    Wait!
[09:52] ---
    You think you can get away?!
[09:54] ---
    What makes you think I can't, "kindred"?
[09:59] ---
    Especially in a place like this...
[10:03] ---
    I have sovereignty over every doll.
[10:07] ---
    Like vassals...
[10:11] ---
    Listen.
[10:12] ---
    Show proof to worship.
[10:15] ---
    Obey. Obey!
[10:26] ---
    I am an almighty doll,
    created to fulfill the role of king.
[10:31] ---
    As such...
[10:36] ---
    all humanoid dolls are my subjects!
[10:39] ---
    Get back!
[10:40] ---
    Haruaki!
[10:41] ---
    Configuration number 11,
    Hazan Column, The Teeth!
[10:46] ---
    Curse Calling!
[11:08] ---
    What is this?
[11:10] ---
    It's too dangerous for you here!
[11:12] ---
    Though you count yourselves
    as my "kindred,"
[11:15] ---
    it seems that the foundation
    of your tyranny is different.
[11:18] ---
    You weren't born to comfort humans,
    but to harm them.
[11:22] ---
    Shut up! You're not getting away!
[11:24] ---
    Why did you leech off
    of energy here at school?
[11:27] ---
    Why didn't you try to run far away?
[11:30] ---
    I've been suspicious about that ever since
    we got here, so will you answer me?
[11:36] ---
    There's a reason you have to do
    that at the school, isn't there?
[11:42] ---
    I'm not that far off target, am I?
[11:45] ---
    You're quick-witted, "kindred."
[11:48] ---
    You'd find out soon
    enough anyway, so I'll tell you.
[11:51] ---
    I'm going to come back to this
    school again to siphon life energy.
[11:55] ---
    It's better than causing
    a disturbance in town, isn't it?
[11:57] ---
    What? Why would you do that?!
[12:00] ---
    There's no need to tell you my reason.
[12:02] ---
    That's right! Since we're
    going to capture you here!
[12:07] ---
    Cow Udders! I'm leaving her to you!
[12:09] ---
    If you don't wish to render
    your protection of that human
[12:12] ---
    up to now meaningless,
    I suggest you stay where you are.
[12:16] ---
    What?!
[12:20] ---
    Look out!
[12:23] ---
    Oh, no, you don't!
[12:30] ---
    Configuration number 5,
    Standing Still Stab, Blood Stake!
[12:36] ---
    Get down!
[12:46] ---
    You let her get away?
[12:47] ---
    This was a poor place to confront her.
    She had too much ammunition to work with.
[12:50] ---
    I'm sorry. It's my fault that she...
[12:56] ---
    I-I'm sorry. I'm such
    a scatterbrain that...
[13:00] ---
    That's right.
[13:01] ---
    That's correct, but due to
    an unforeseen accident or not,
[13:04] ---
    I can't overlook this kind
    of intimate contact,
[13:06] ---
    so get off of him right now! Come on!
[13:08] ---
    She may still be in the school.
[13:11] ---
    Although a shameless brat
    like you is probably satisfied
[13:14] ---
    as long as he can have
    a girl on top of him.
[13:16] ---
    I-It wasn't on purpose!
[13:37] ---
    "I'm looking for something,
[13:41] ---
    although I've just been walking
    for the longest time."
[13:44] ---
    That's how it started.
[13:46] ---
    But when my father heard
    her speak, the secret was out.
[13:50] ---
    He took Sovereignty away from me.
[13:57] ---
    It seems he entrusted Sovereignty
[13:58] ---
    "Infirmary"
[13:59] ---
    To a curio-related acquaintance of his.
[14:01] ---
    I thought maybe it was
    the president of this school,
[14:04] ---
    so I came here for the first time
    today to look for her,
[14:06] ---
    but then she caused an uproar...
[14:10] ---
    S-Sorry. I didn't look where I was going...
[14:14] ---
    I'm soaked...
[14:17] ---
    Th-Those bulges!
    Can they mean you're not...
[14:19] ---
    wearing a bra?!
[14:22] ---
    Why are you acting like
    there's nothing going on?!
[14:24] ---
    Help us find her!
[14:26] ---
    I-I'm sorry. I'm just so scatterbrained...
[14:30] ---
    Is your health okay?
[14:32] ---
    You've been out of school
    all this time, right?
[14:34] ---
    I'm fine. The reason
    I couldn't come to school...
[14:38] ---
    Well, there were
    family matters, for example...
[14:40] ---
    What kind of family matters?
[14:42] ---
    There's a time to pry and a time
    to mind your own business.
[14:45] ---
    Hey, Fear. What does
    the schoolyard look like?
[14:49] ---
    Nothing special. There's a wall
    and a bronze statue...
[14:53] ---
    A bronze statue?
[14:54] ---
    That's strange. I'm sure it
    was more over there before.
[14:57] ---
    And the way it looks...
    Like a stepstool...
[15:04] ---
    Why, you... You used this as a foothold
    to pull a runner to the outside, huh?!
[15:09] ---
    Crap. I bungled this.
[15:14] ---
    "Pulpy Purple"
[15:14] ---
    For now, thanks for the help.
[15:16] ---
    Huh? Um, I'm broke, so I can't afford to...
[15:20] ---
    Don't worry about it.
    Call it a "welcome to this school."
[15:24] ---
    Say, what are you going to do
    if you catch Sovereignty?
[15:27] ---
    Well, until the curse is broken,
[15:29] ---
    I think I'll have her
    stay quietly at my house.
[15:31] ---
    You're not going to destroy her?
[15:33] ---
    Of course not.
[15:35] ---
    I just can't have her
    harming innocent bystanders.
[15:39] ---
    Yes. We absolutely can't have that.
[15:43] ---
    In my opinion, our problem right now
    is that that doll doesn't realize
[15:49] ---
    there is a way to break her curse.
[15:52] ---
    I bet she thinks that if we catch her,
[15:55] ---
    she'll either be confined or destroyed.
[15:57] ---
    I'm sure you're right.
[15:59] ---
    So we have to tell her that.
[16:03] ---
    Are you okay with it?
[16:04] ---
    I can still see her, even before
    her curse is broken, right?
[16:09] ---
    In that case, I'll just have to be patient.
[16:12] ---
    Even if we're not together,
    I'll still think of her as a friend.
[16:17] ---
    Although Sovereignty may
    feel differently...
[16:23] ---
    Suddenly being shoved into a trunk
    and taken to a new place...
[16:28] ---
    Of course she feels betrayed by humans.
[16:32] ---
    Despair, huh?
[16:34] ---
    And you want to help her, don't you?
[16:37] ---
    I don't have the strength to help her.
[16:40] ---
    But I think of her as a friend, so...
[16:45] ---
    I promise you this.
    I'll find that doll for you!
[16:53] ---
    While I was waiting in the infirmary,
[16:55] ---
    you three have been
    having a great time, huh?
[17:03] ---
    So, at final count, six people collapsed?
[17:07] ---
    I wonder what it was about.
[17:08] ---
    I think it was something
    supernatural, though...
[17:12] ---
    I'm backing the
    "mad chloroformer" hypothesis.
[17:15] ---
    I hear slippers and stuff
    have been stolen, too.
[17:20] ---
    Okay, we'll wind up class here.
[17:22] ---
    Fear-chan, what about
    today's cooking showdown?
[17:24] ---
    Go ahead without me!
[17:27] ---
    Where are you?! Come out!
[17:32] ---
    Thank you for your hard work, Fear-sama.
[17:36] ---
    W-What do you want?!
[17:38] ---
    "This Room Is Off-Limits During Remodeling"
[17:38] ---
    This. We're short-handed.
[17:40] ---
    How are you doing?
[17:43] ---
    I'm waiting here for her to come back.
[17:46] ---
    How about you?
[17:48] ---
    After finishing my patrol of school grounds,
    I will join the guards at the gate.
[17:52] ---
    I see. And that's why you're wearing that.
[17:55] ---
    Ultraviolet rays are slowly
    but surely murderous.
[17:57] ---
    --Okay, everyone! Let's go meow-meow
    together in heaven and hell today, too!
[17:59] ---
    --Excuse me.
[18:03] ---
    "Infirmary"
[18:04] ---
    Is that right?
[18:05] ---
    Another victim...
[18:19] ---
    F-Fear-chan?!
[18:20] ---
    Wow. Those things are impressive.
[18:23] ---
    Maybe not as huge as Cow
    Udders', but still...
[18:25] ---
    Fear-chan, you'll get there soon.
[18:27] ---
    I don't believe that!
    How can this get to those?!
[18:32] ---
    Mmm, well... I-If you
    massage them, they'll get bigger!
[18:36] ---
    I-I did my best with that, too!
[18:38] ---
    Like this!
[18:40] ---
    Oh! I'll try that, too!
[18:43] ---
    And it's supposed to work even better
    if someone else does it for you.
[18:47] ---
    Okay, massage away! Give and take.
[18:49] ---
    I'll do yours!
[18:52] ---
    Really? Will you?
[18:55] ---
    So, what's wrong?
[18:57] ---
    It looked like you were sighing before.
[19:00] ---
    It sounds like she came back.
[19:05] ---
    Yeah, that's what I hear, too.
[19:06] ---
    I couldn't stop her.
    Even though I promised you...
[19:10] ---
    That's what's getting you down?
[19:12] ---
    I want to explain things
    to her as soon as possible.
[19:16] ---
    For her own sake...
[19:18] ---
    For Sovereignty's sake?
[19:20] ---
    That's right. She and I are the same.
[19:24] ---
    That's why I have to tell her...
[19:27] ---
    that her curse can be broken!
[19:30] ---
    And yet...
[19:32] ---
    I haven't done a thing.
[19:36] ---
    Here!
[19:38] ---
    You don't have to be in a hurry.
[19:41] ---
    I'm sure Sovereignty will be thrilled.
[19:44] ---
    I am, too. So here's my show of thanks.
[19:50] ---
    What exactly are they doing?
[19:52] ---
    Something's got to be done, and soon.
[19:58] ---
    I've been looking for you, beast!
[19:59] ---
    What the hell are you doing, idiot?!
[20:01] ---
    Bastard! Like Konoha-san and
    Fear-chan aren't enough for you,
[20:04] ---
    now some hot dude?!
[20:05] ---
    Hot dude? What?
[20:07] ---
    He said to tell you to come over
    to the school's drinking fountains!
[20:10] ---
    There, I passed on his love call!
[20:16] ---
    There's nobody here...
[20:18] ---
    Are you still looking for me?
[20:21] ---
    Sovereignty!
[20:23] ---
    If I appear to be anything but,
[20:25] ---
    perhaps you should switch
    to glass eyes, human.
[20:29] ---
    What are you doing...?
[20:30] ---
    Wait, you called me out here, didn't you?
[20:33] ---
    You're quick to comprehend,
    for a foolish human.
[20:36] ---
    Listen to me with those ears
    that are as open as the hollow of a tree.
[20:41] ---
    Certainly, I siphon human energy.
[20:44] ---
    But it isn't life-threatening.
[20:48] ---
    Perhaps you can think of it
    as something as trifling as a cold
[20:50] ---
    and overlook it?
[20:52] ---
    My answer is... you've got the wrong idea.
[20:56] ---
    That's all.
[20:57] ---
    The wrong idea?
[20:59] ---
    The curse can be broken.
[21:01] ---
    Shiraho's dad didn't
    turn you over to be destroyed.
[21:05] ---
    We don't intend to destroy you either.
[21:08] ---
    And Shiraho is worried about you.
[21:10] ---
    Will you come to my house
    so that the curse can be broken?
[21:19] ---
    Human. There's only one thing
    I have to say to you.
[21:25] ---
    A curse. Do you really think that's
    something everyone wants to have broken?
[21:35] ---
    Are you serious?! Again?!
[21:36] ---
    This makes ten, doesn't it?!
    So, is it a guy or girl?
[21:39] ---
    It's that girl with the glasses and braids;
[21:41] ---
    you know, from class one,
    with the huge rack!
[22:15] ---
    The soft moonlight shines on
[22:21] ---
    the ephemeral shadows of the snow
[22:27] ---
    Putting together small hands numb with cold
[22:33] ---
    Smiling on the transparent town
[22:39] ---
    Enveloping all the noisy times
[22:44] ---
    Just releasing them into the dyed night
[22:50] ---
    White flower petals raining down
[22:53] ---
    Quietly untangling my heart
[22:56] ---
    Charming me with the moment
    they melt on my palms

[23:02] ---
    Far off in the indigo sky I'm looking up at
[23:05] ---
    Reflecting the light of where I'm going
[23:08] ---
    Just light up the doubts
[23:13] ---
    O, linked snow flowers
[23:19] ---
    reach me now
[23:31] ---
    "Chapter 7" "Not Reflected
    in the Eyes of a Seer"
[23:35] ---
    Chapter Seven:
[23:38] ---
    "Not Reflected in the Eyes of a Seer."
[23:41] ---
    If you don't watch it,
    I'll put a curse on you!
