[00:00] N
    I was just researching
    the ancient documents,
[00:02] N
    and I found out that
    Granvania has a labyrinth
[00:05] N
    other than the twelve
     Labyrinths of Constellations.
[00:09] Mana
    Congratulations, Itsuki!
[00:10] Mana
    This must be a sign that
    there's also a thirteenth maiden!
[01:45] I
    A new maiden?
[01:50] Mana
    I wonder where she is?
[01:53] I
    A new maiden?
[02:01] I
    Not a woman?
[02:18] I
    Wait a minute! Cool off!
[02:20] I
    Calm down!
[02:21] Mana
    Even if your brain's telling you to
    calm down, your body isn't listening.
[02:25] Mana
    The more you try to cool your head,
     the more your body heats up.
[02:29] Mana
    It's getting maddeningly hot and it
    feels like you're engulfed in flames!
[02:33] Mana
    It's hot here, here, here,
    here, here, and here!
[02:37] Mana
    I'm burning up! I can't take it anymore!
[02:44] Mana
    Burning!
[02:46] Mana
    Crispy margherita!
[02:48] S
    Oh, if it isn't Itsuki!
[02:51] S
    What a coincidence.
[02:56] S
    Ouch.
[02:58] S
    Better not burn myself.
[03:12] Mana
    Dripping sweat.
[03:14] Mana
    Twitching muscles.
[03:16] Mana
    There's no need for words.
[03:18] Mana
    Your instincts take over...
[03:19] Mana
    as wild breaths blow against you.
[03:40] S
    Itsuki.
[03:42] S
    What a coincidence.
[03:44] S
    I can't stop sweating.
[03:52] S
    See you.
[04:10] S
    We keep bumping into each other.
[04:17] S
    I'm wet.
[04:19] Mana
    Seiya's body wasn't the
     only thing getting wet.
[04:23] Mana
    Itsuki was wet, too.
[04:25] Mana
    His heart was burning up!
[04:29] Mana
    Love confused Itsuki.
[04:31] Mana
    This is Granvania,
[04:33] Mana
    where the Visitor around
    the corner gets wet...
[04:48] I
    Wait, this is a public bath for men.
[04:50] I
    It's normal that there's a lot of men here.
[04:52] Mana
    Itsuki was unsure of himself.
[04:54] Mana
    The smell of men all around him.
[04:57] Mana
    The fabulous scent caused a marvelous
    feeling to well up inside him.
[05:02] Mana
    Rising libido!
[05:06] Mana
    Yes, I am now about to
    open the forbidden door...
[05:12] Mana
    Even though I'm still hesitant...
[05:14] Mana
    I'll let my body take over...
[05:18] Mana
    The thirteenth maiden is a man?!
[05:21] Mana
    Maybe I can do it!
[05:24] I
    Enough of your weird narration!
[05:33] Mana
    Not so hard!
[05:35] Mana
    I'm starting to become dirty!
[05:37] Mana
    So dirty as you get cleaner!
[05:38] ---
    Jeez...
[05:39] S
    Huh? Itsuki?
[05:42] S
    I just happened to be here.
[05:45] S
    Maybe this isn't a coincidence anymore.
[05:53] Mana
    Not so hard!
[05:54] Mana
    I'm starting to become dirty!
[05:56] Mana
    So dirty as you get cleaner!
[06:01] Mana
    No, if you keep scrubbing me...
[06:03] Mana
    I-I-I... no!
[06:05] Mana
    I can't take it anymore!
[06:07] Mana
    That's... that's... a danger zone!
[06:09] S
    Maybe it's fate... right?
[06:10] S
    Fate? Coincidence? Supernatural?!
[06:16] S
    Want me to wash your back?
[06:18] I
    Huh? No... Next time.
[06:29] Mana
    Why are you staring blankly into space?
[06:31] Mana
    You have to find the thirteenth maiden
    and perform a Love Ritual!
[06:35] I
    Even though I don't know who it is?
[06:38] Mana
    He might be closer than you think!
[06:41] I
    Closer than I think?
[06:43] Mana
    Maybe he hasn't realized his destiny yet.
[06:46] I
    Even if he did, there's no guarantee
    that he would just show up.
[06:49] Mana
    No, he must know just how
    important a maiden's duty is!
[06:54] I
    Hey, can you stop saying
    "him" this and "him" that?
[06:58] Mana
    How come?
[06:59] I
    Why are you talking as if
    the thirteenth maiden is a man?
[07:03] Mana
    What? You're still worrying about that?!
[07:05] Mana
    We teased about a Love Ritual between
    two men at the end of the previous episode,
[07:09] Mana
    and that's where the story is
    going so far in this episode!
[07:12] I
    No way! It's a maiden!
[07:14] I
    How can that be a man?
[07:15] Mana
    You're still stuck on the stereotypes.
[07:18] Mana
    You'll never get rid of your old fart smell!
[07:21] Mana
    When you've finally finished
    Love Rituals with twelve maidens...
[07:24] Mana
    When you've finally bonded
    with the twelve women...
[07:28] Mana
    That's when they added the plot twist
    about a thirteenth labyrinth!
[07:33] Mana
    This means they're trying to
    stimulate and shock the viewers!
[07:38] I
    Plot twist?
[07:39] Mana
    Even in sentai or bishoujo series,
[07:41] Mana
    you get new allies midway through the season.
[07:44] Mana
    It can sometimes even be an enemy
    commander, or an android...
[07:47] Mana
    That's trending right now.
[07:48] Mana
    The thirteenth maiden being a man...
[07:50] Mana
    That's not a stretch for episode 9 material.
[07:54] I
    You're very well-informed.
[07:55] Mana
    I've heard from Narcisstes
[07:58] Mana
    that the thirteenth labyrinth has
    been sealed all this time.
[08:04] Mana
    In other words, it's a forbidden door!
[08:07] I
    Don't twist the meaning like that!
[08:09] Mana
    Forbidden door! Then...
SIGN    Forbidden
[08:11] Mana
    could it be anything other
    than a Boys' Love Ritual?
SIGN    Forbidden
[08:15] Mana
    Visually so, as well!
[08:16] I
    No, no, no way!
[08:19] Mana
    Does that mean it'll be
    forbidden in some other way?
[08:25] Mana
    Where should we go?
SIGN    Forbidden
[08:27] ---
    What?!
[08:30] Mana
    Love Ritual with optional play.
[08:33] I
    No!
SIGN    Forbidden
[08:36] Mana
    Or sibling love?
[08:38] Mana
    Onii-chan, I don't mind.
SIGN    Forbidden
[08:41] Mana
    Or stepmother?
[08:43] Mana
    Are you sure you're fine with me?
[08:45] I
    I don't have a little sister or a stepmother!
[08:47] Mana
    Are you saying we should
    think outside the box?
[08:51] Mana
    Would you like an episode title
    of "Itsuki-kun and horsey"?
[08:54] I
    Horsey?
[08:57] Mana
    Will you go to Sue's farm and find a partner?
[09:01] Mana
    Are you going to drive the legal team crazy?
[09:03] Mana
    Which one would you like?
[09:05] Mana
    You can pick from all the cuties here!
[09:07] Mana
    You beast!
[09:08] Mana
    Who are you going to have?
[09:09] Mana
    Or maybe they'll have you!
[09:14] I
    No, no way!
[09:16] Mana
    What are we going to do, then?
[09:19] I
    Second round.
[09:20] Mana
    Huh?
[09:21] I
    I'll go for second rounds and
    make the next Star Child.
[09:23] Mana
    Second round?
[09:24] I
    I'll start with Mahiru, again...
[09:26] Mana
    This is the second round,
    so I've gained the skills.
[09:29] Mana
    I'm pretty confident this time.
[09:31] Mana
    Huh?!
[09:33] Mana
    Men are so simple-minded, don't you think?
[09:37] I
    They're maidens, after all.
[09:39] I
    And... women.
[09:41] Mana
    But that would still be a second round.
    Not the thirteenth maiden.
[09:46] Mana
    Reboots are important,
    but we need a new one here!
[09:49] I
    But a man?
[09:52] I
    It feels like I'm betraying
    Mahiru and the others...
[09:56] Mana
    Yeah?
[09:58] Mana
    What's the phrase you've
    said to all of twelve of them?
[10:06] (Flashback) I
    Please have my child.
[10:09] I
    I'm despicable!
[10:13] Mana
    Don't cry.
[10:15] Mana
    Well, I guess you would
    be despicable in Sola,
[10:17] Mana
    but in Granvania, those are the
    words that will save the world.
[10:23] Mana
    What are you going to do?
[10:26] Mana
    Go for horses?
[10:27] I
    Not horses.
[10:28] Mana
    All right!
[10:32] Mana
    I guess this is pretty much it.
[10:34] I
    Way too few choices!
[10:37] Mana
    How can we introduce a new character now?
[10:40] Mana
    That would be too convenient!
[10:41] Mana
    It would be more visually
    pleasing with a hottie.
[10:44] Mana
    Tasty!
[10:48] I
    I mean, are they even...
[10:51] Mana
    Huh?
[10:52] I
    Well, you know...
[10:54] Mana
    Huh?
[10:56] Mana
    Oh! You mean, are they fine
    being with another man?
[10:58] I
    No!
[11:00] I
    Maidens have to be chaste, right?
[11:03] Mana
    Oh, you mean, are they virgins?
[11:07] Mana
    Narcisstes reads ancient documents
    and researches all the time,
[11:11] Mana
    so he's probably only had books as partners.
[11:13] N
    Please, please bind me!
[11:16] N
    Bind me and put me on a shelf!
[11:19] Mana
    Seiya, as you know, is a playboy and
    looks like he's good with women,
[11:22] Mana
    but guys like that would never want girls
    to know they're actually inexperienced
[11:26] Mana
    and throw away opportunities
    when there's a real chance.
[11:29] S
    No action for me.
[11:32] I
    No, the king can't be, right?
[11:35] Mana
    You'll know by whether or not he can
    perform the Love Ritual when the time comes.
[11:41] I
    It feels like you're not trying as hard as
    you did with the other twelve maidens.
[11:47] Mana
    That's not true.
[11:51] Mana
    Listen! This is all for saving Granvania!
[11:55] Mana
    To seal the thirteenth labyrinth!
[11:58] Mana
    We need a new Star Child!
[12:00] Mana
    There's no time for hesitation—
[12:01] I
    But I don't have any feelings for...
[12:03] Mana
    I know how you feel, but for the
    peace and future of Granvania...
[12:08] S
    Itsuki!
[12:10] S
    I was shooting for a new photo book.
[12:13] Both
    Selfies again?
[12:15] S
    Yeah.
[12:16] S
    Anyway, it looks like you're down, Itsuki.
[12:20] S
    Is something bothering you?
[12:21] S
    I'll be happy to hear you out,
     if you want.
[12:27] Mana
    Look, your prey has come on his own!
[12:36] S
    The theme of my next photo book is vampires.
[12:39] I
    I-I see.
[12:41] S
    Come on, you can tell me anything.
[12:44] I
    What am I supposed to say?
[12:45] I
    "Are you into guys?"
[12:46] I
    Or, "are you still a virgin?"
[12:49] S
    Aren't you thinking too much about others?
[12:51] I
    No, I can't do it with another guy.
[12:54] S
    I know how hard it must be for you.
[12:57] S
    You came to Granvania
    from Sola as the Visitor.
[13:01] S
    You don't know anyone,
[13:02] S
    nobody to lean on,
[13:04] S
    and you have to spend your days
    here alone as an outsider.
[13:06] I
    Actually, Mahiru is a
    childhood friend of mine.
[13:09] S
    Not only that, you have the
    duty of saving Granvania.
[13:12] S
    I know the loneliness and
    pressure you must be feeling!
[13:16] S
    It's the same for me.
[13:17] S
    They say I'm the number one womanizer
    in the nation, a playboy,
[13:21] S
    and I have to play my part
     to live up to the girls' expectations.
[13:23] S
    I have to spend my days
    alone making photo books.
[13:25] I
    You don't have friends?
[13:27] S
    This is not the real me!
[13:32] S
    I got a bit too excited.
[13:35] I
    Stop it.
[13:36] I
    Stop the sad look!
[13:38] S
    Itsuki, I'm the only one who
    can understand your loneliness.
[13:43] S
    Let's warm our lonely skins together.
[13:46] I
    Huh?
[13:47] I
    Isn't this a bit different from before?
[13:50] I
    Compared to how it went
    with the maidens before...
[13:52] I
    Well, all the previous maidens were girls,
[13:55] I
    so this time is definitely different, but...
[13:58] I
    Wait a minute, I'm the
    one who's being seduced?
[14:03] I
    Uh, um...
[14:05] S
    Are you nervous?
[14:07] I
    Nervous? More like...
[14:08] S
    That's good.
[14:10] I
    Good? What is?
[14:12] I
    Huh? What?
[14:14] S
    Live together, or just die alone?
[14:17] S
    Let's change our angle of thinking.
[14:24] S
    Relax a bit more.
[14:28] S
    Take two.
[14:37] I
    No...
[14:42] I
    Wait a second! I need a break!
[14:44] S
    You could've stayed the night.
[14:48] Mana
    Why did you run out like that?
[14:51] Mana
    You were so close!
[14:53] I
    He was almost on top of me!
[14:56] I
    If I kept going, I would've
    been the one to give birth!
[14:59] Mana
    Who cares who's the one giving birth now?
[15:02] I
    I care!
[15:03] I
    It's with another man!
[15:04] Mana
    Oh, well.
[15:06] Mana
    Let's go for the next one!
[15:08] I
    Next?
[15:09] N
    Who would've thought you
    would come to see me?
[15:14] Mana
    I thought maybe I should learn a
    bit more about the thirteenth labyrinth.
[15:19] Mana
    Smirk.
[15:20] Mana
    Don't do that.
[15:21] N
    That's a great attitude.
[15:24] N
    However, there are still many mysteries
[15:27] ---
    surrounding the thirteenth labyrinth,
    and I'm still researching.
[15:30] N
    I need more time.
[15:32] I
    Okay, see ya.
[15:34] Mana
    Hey, don't just leave!
[15:37] N
    Itsuki.
[15:38] I
    Uh, yes?
[15:39] N
    Don't burden yourself too much.
[15:42] N
    The sudden responsibility of shouldering
    the fate of Granvania as the Visitor...
[15:48] N
    That is probably something
    I will never fully understand.
[15:53] N
    I am thankful, from bottom of my heart.
[15:58] N
    We need you.
[16:00] I
    Narcisstes...
[16:02] N
    I have a question for you.
SIGN    History
[16:04] N
    Ancient hieroglyphs are hard to interpret.
[16:07] ---
    I'll help if I can.
[16:11] I
    M-My body is really stiff,
[16:14] I
    so I can't do it!
[16:18] N
    According to ancient documents,
[16:20] N
    human culture is difficult to understand.
[16:25] Mana
    Stopping right before the action again?!
[16:27] Mana
    Why are you teasing me?
[16:29] I
    Well, he's still a man.
[16:32] Mana
    Why does that bother you so much?
[16:33] Mana
    Just go for it!
[16:35] I
    It just feels wrong for me.
[16:39] I
    I can't abandon my values so easily.
[16:41] Mana
    You can easily abandon
    and change your values.
[16:45] I
    Well, your values must have
    been messed up from the start.
[16:49] Mana
    I used to be an Impurity.
[16:52] I
    You were an Impurity?
[16:54] Mana
    A magician in this nation brought me
     out of a labyrinth a hundred years ago.
[16:59] I
    How did they just allow an
    Impurity to roam around free?
[17:02] Mana
    They didn't.
[17:04] Mana
    I've been told that the magician was trying
    to give consciousness to Impurities,
[17:07] Mana
    and tried to find a way to coexist.
[17:11] Mana
    But the magician died before
    he could complete his work.
[17:16] Mana
    Leaving me behind...
[17:17] Mana
    I was an Impurity who was left behind,
[17:20] Mana
    and I was all alone.
[17:22] Mana
    I was very confused,
    and didn't know what to do.
[17:25] Mana
    Not only that, the government
    found out about my existence,
[17:29] ---
    and tried to cleanse me.
[17:31] I
    Cleanse you, Mana?
[17:33] Mana
    Because Impurities shouldn't exist.
[17:36] Mana
    But surprisingly, that Visitor
    didn't kill me, and protected me.
[17:42] Mana
    I have been serving this nation ever since.
[17:46] I
    That Visitor...
[17:48] Mana
    ...is Shangri-La!
[17:50] I
    What? The king?!
[17:51] Mana
    Details on our website!
SIGN    "Check the official website for details!"
[17:53] I
    Hey!
[17:54] Mana
    Got it?
[17:55] Mana
    You can change yourself very easily.
[18:00] Mana
    It's not that bad for you.
[18:02] Mana
    As a Visitor, you're welcomed by everyone.
[18:05] Mana
    But as a former Impurity,
[18:07] Mana
    I shouldn't even be allowed to exist here.
[18:11] Mana
    Sometimes I hate myself... My tainted body...
[18:15] Mana
    Itsuki?
[18:16] I
    Don't blame it on yourself like that.
[18:20] Mana
    Itsuki...
[18:23] I
    It must be hard for you.
[18:28] Mana
    You sexual beast!
[18:31] I
    I think I've just broken a barrier.
[18:35] I
    Mana, I think I can do it.
[18:38] Mana
    The more you resist, the more you want it.
[18:42] Mana
    Please be gentle.
[18:47] Mana
    Hey, Itsuki!
[18:49] Mana
    You've shamed me!
[18:52] I
    If I can do Mana...
[18:53] I
    If I can do Mana, I...
[18:57] N
    Itsuki?
[18:58] I
    I can also do men!
[19:01] ---
    ...men! ...men! ...men! ...men!
[19:04] N
    Also? Also men?
[19:06] I
    Men and women... I want to break
    that barrier and get past it!
[19:10] I
    I want to save Granvania!
[19:12] Mana
    Well said, Itsuki!
[19:16] Mana
    I've prepared a room for the two of you!
[19:19] N
    Huh?
[19:20] Mana
    I called Seiya, too.
[19:22] Mana
    Come, come, come!
[19:24] N
    I understand the situation.
[19:26] S
    The thirteenth maiden is a man, huh?
[19:30] I
    You will have my child?
[19:33] S
    Hold on, Itsuki.
[19:34] I
    What? Wait for what?
[19:37] I
    I will no longer wait for anything!
[19:39] S
    Who would you pick?
[19:41] N
    Yes. Who would you pick as the thirteenth maiden?
[19:47] I
    Both of you.
[19:48] Both
    Huh?
[19:49] I
    I don't care about men or women,
    or the thirteenth or whatever.
[19:53] I
    You're both the important thirteenth maiden.
[19:56] I
    I want the three of us to save Granvania!
[19:59] ---
    Unless you don't want to.
[20:01] S
    That's not fair, Itsuki.
[20:03] N
    Sheesh, we can't complain
    when you say it so sincerely.
[20:09] S
    But that sincerity...
[20:11] N
    is what's good about you.
[20:12] I
    So you will have my child?
[20:16] N
    Will we be able to?
[20:18] I
    Don't worry, just do it.
[20:21] N
    Let's do it.
[20:23] S
    Let us do it.
[20:25] I
    Open, forbidden door!
[20:31] Mana
    Wonderful!
[20:39] Mana
    That was a sight to behold.
[20:42] Mana
    So very interesting!
[20:43] I
    Mana, neither of them was the one?
[20:45] Mana
    Of course not!
[20:48] Mana
    How can there be a Love Ritual
    between men?
[20:52] I
    Are you telling me you were playing me?!
[20:55] Mana
    That's not it, Itsuki!
[20:57] Mana
    You have now leveled up!
[21:00] I
    Leveled up?
[21:01] Mana
    For you humans, the more
    open-minded, the better.
[21:05] I
    Open-minded?
[21:07] N
    I knew about this from the start.
[21:09] I
    You did?
[21:11] Mana
    Now, you can love the thirteenth
    maiden with fresh feelings.
[21:15] I
    Fresh feelings...
[21:16] Mana
    I mean, you can even do men!
[21:20] S
    You seem stronger than yesterday.
[21:23] N
    We're counting on you for
    the future of Granvania.
[21:25] I
    It's not fair that you've known all along.
[21:29] S
    I was serious, though.
[21:43] I
    Not just with women
[21:44] I
    or with men.
[21:46] I
    It's about having feelings for each other
[21:48] I
    that will become an irreplaceable bond.
[21:51] I
    Whether you prefer women
[21:53] I
    or men,
[21:54] I
    I'm sure that you, too,
[21:56] I
    are a Visitor for someone out there.
SIGN    Let's Try Giving Birth, Together
SIGN    My Children, Thirteen of them!?
[23:36] Mana
    Mole on your tushie.
