**[00:21] ---**
Waves are holding steady.
**[00:23] ---**
The drugs have made
her nerves super sensitive.
**[00:28] ---**
Still, no signs of inversion. Crank it up.
**[00:42] ---**
Nightmare's attacking!
**[00:44] ---**
Call for backup from Implement 2!
**[00:54] ---**
I finally found you,
Second Spirit... "Sister."
**[02:41] ---**
We're reading typical Spirit Wave levels.
**[02:44] ---**
The path connecting you
and the Spirits has normalized.
**[02:49] ---**
Really? That's a relief.
**[02:51] ---**
You had me worried
with your rampage the other day,
**[02:56] ---**
but I think it's safe
to resume regular checkups.
**[03:00] ---**
Sorry for all the trouble.
**[03:03] ---**
Though, I can't even
remember what happened.
**[03:11] ---**
Shido! Is your checkup done?
**[03:14] ---**
Hey, Tohka. Yeah, it went fine.
**[03:18] ---**
That's wonderful!
**[03:20] ---**
Thank goodness.
**[03:22] ---**
Yoshino's been worried sick! She was
holding Natsumi's hand the whole time!
**[03:30] ---**
I see. Sorry to trouble you, guys.
**[03:34] ---**
Don't be. It's not like we did anything.
**[03:40] ---**
Aren't your checkups next?
**[03:42] ---**
I'll buy stuff for dinner
on the way home, so...
**[03:46] ---**
Huh? Where's Kotori?
**[03:48] ---**
Oh, she's busy with
something in Exam Room 2.
**[03:53] ---**
Hurry and you might catch her.
**[03:55] ---**
All right. See you guys later.
**[03:58] ---**
--Okay!
--Yeah, yeah.
**[04:04] ---**
Exam Room 2...
**[04:07] ---**
It's this one, isn't it?
**[04:11] ---**
Calm your butt down and let me strip you!
**[04:16] ---**
K-Kotori?! Mana?!
**[04:19] ---**
--Big brother!
--Shido!
**[04:21] ---**
S-Sorry for intruding,
but it's wrong to force her into it!
**[04:26] ---**
You've totally got the wrong idea.
**[04:29] ---**
Kotori is forcing me to get a checkup!
**[04:33] ---**
Huh?
**[04:35] ---**
There's nothing wrong with me!
And why do I have to listen to you?
**[04:40] ---**
I told you! You need an exam with all
the body enhancements DEM's done to you!
**[04:46] ---**
My body's fine, thank you!
**[04:49] ---**
But you keep stopping me from going
on missions! I wanna help out, too!
**[04:54] ---**
Then let me exam you! I'll discover stuff
about your body you never knew!
**[04:59] ---**
Big brother! Save me!
**[05:14] ---**
"Happy New Year"
**[05:20] ---**
Nobody has a clue there's
a huge secret base under all this.
**[05:29] ---**
"Blast"
"Serial Publication"
**[05:34] ---**
Huh?
**[05:38] ---**
Whoa! What?!
**[05:43] ---**
A-Are you okay?!
**[05:45] ---**
Ar... ving.
**[05:47] ---**
Huh? Wh-What was that?
**[05:49] ---**
I'm... starving.
**[05:53] ---**
Huh?
**[05:58] ---**
Thanks, Boy.
**[06:00] ---**
Of course. Say, do you want me
to take you to the hospital?
**[06:05] ---**
Oh, heck no. It's not like I'm sick.
**[06:09] ---**
By the way, can you talk less polite?
It feels so stiff.
**[06:14] ---**
Oh... My apologies.
**[06:16] ---**
There you go again. But anyway...
**[06:23] ---**
I've been pushing 'em on you to show
my thanks, but you haven't reacted.
**[06:30] ---**
Are you a butt guy?
**[06:33] ---**
Wh-What are you talking about?!
**[06:35] ---**
Or a big boob lover that thinks
anything under 80cm doesn't count?
**[06:41] ---**
Sorry that my stack doesn't cut it.
**[06:44] ---**
Can you not put me in weird groups?
**[06:47] ---**
Oh. This building, please.
**[06:54] ---**
Huh?
**[06:56] ---**
Oof! Whew!
**[06:59] ---**
Thanks, Boy.
**[07:05] ---**
Are you a manga artist?
**[07:07] ---**
You know it. Was working so hard,
I forgot to eat.
**[07:13] ---**
I was heading to the store to buy food
when I found out how strong gravity is.
**[07:19] ---**
Huh?!
**[07:21] ---**
Is this what I think it is?!
*Silver Bullet?!*
**[07:25] ---**
I'm surprised you knew.
Are you a reader? Thanks!
**[07:30] ---**
Wait, hold up! That makes you
the author, Souji Honjo?!
**[07:35] ---**
Yup, that's right.
**[07:37] ---**
Y-You're not a guy?
**[07:39] ---**
It's my pen name.
My real one's Nia. Nia Honjo.
**[07:45] ---**
There's quite a few women using
guy pen names to write *shonen* manga.
**[07:50] ---**
You know, like *Other Fake*'s Takajo.
**[07:53] ---**
Wha--?! Hiroki Takajo, too?!
**[07:56] ---**
Wait, it doesn't make sense!
**[07:58] ---**
I mean, I read *Silver Bullet*
in elementary school.
**[08:02] ---**
And the author stopped writing
for health reasons years ago.
**[08:06] ---**
It's been ten years since my debut...
**[08:10] ---**
I was out for a few reasons,
but I'm starting back up.
**[08:15] ---**
Check out the next volume. It'll be there.
**[08:19] ---**
Ten years ago?
But you don't even look 20 yet.
**[08:29] ---**
B-Boy!
**[08:31] ---**
Yeah, yeah. Lemme borrow your kitchen.
**[08:36] ---**
Delicious! Delicious! What is this
culinary magic?! What is it?!
**[08:42] ---**
What kind of life do you live?
All you have is beer in the fridge.
**[08:47] ---**
Man! I haven't had a hot meal
like this in a week!
**[08:52] ---**
I'll clean up and leave, so try not
to starve and collapse again.
**[08:57] ---**
Now, now! Not so fast, Boy!
You wanna earn some money?
**[09:06] ---**
What am I even doing?
**[09:08] ---**
Sorry. I don't usually use assistants,
but the deadline is tight this time.
**[09:14] ---**
It's fine, but what's the outfit for?
**[09:17] ---**
For reference, but also as
special thanks for your service!
**[09:22] ---**
Look! I've got no boobs,
but don't I got style?!
**[09:26] ---**
Here. Is this good enough?
**[09:30] ---**
Jeez! Trying to play cool?
**[09:32] ---**
Whoa, you're not bad!
More of where that came from!
**[09:36] ---**
Yeah, yeah.
**[09:40] ---**
All done!
**[09:43] ---**
I haven't focused that hard in ages!
**[09:46] ---**
Thanks for all the help!
**[09:48] ---**
Here! Come get your pay.
**[09:50] ---**
Wh-What are you doing?!
**[09:52] ---**
Don't be so fussy! C'mon, c'mon!
**[09:55] ---**
"Pay"
"Boy"
**[10:03] ---**
Is having small boobs a sin?!
**[10:06] ---**
Um... I'm leaving for real, so keep
the money. It was a learning experience.
**[10:13] ---**
Wait! Wait! That won't sit right with me!
**[10:17] ---**
How about this? Next Saturday,
I'll go on a date with you!
**[10:21] ---**
A date?
**[10:22] ---**
In Akihabara! I haven't bought
much lately, so I wanna go!
**[10:28] ---**
So I'm your bag carrier?
**[10:31] ---**
Erk!
**[10:32] ---**
Sorry, but ask someone else.
How about one of your friends?
**[10:40] ---**
Gee, I don't really have
any friends! But still...
**[10:45] ---**
Can you afford not to go?
**[10:47] ---**
Huh?
**[10:50] ---**
--There we go.
--Huh?
**[11:05] ---**
Isn't it your job to make Spirits
fall for you, Shido Itsuka?
**[11:21] ---**
It's been a month since Sister's escape...
**[11:24] ---**
I can punish the facility crew
if you'd like.
**[11:28] ---**
There's no need. Our talented
researchers are valuable. Besides...
**[11:34] ---**
Besides... What, Ike?
**[11:38] ---**
They couldn't have done a better job.
**[11:43] ---**
What gives?!
Give a better reaction than that!
**[11:46] ---**
--I just transformed for you!
--Huh?
**[11:49] ---**
I was expecting a
"Wh-What the heck?!" at least!
**[11:53] ---**
Or even better, "This girl's
transformation made my heart skip!"
**[11:58] ---**
Look, look! My Spirit Armor
is sexy, don'tcha think?
**[12:03] ---**
H-Hey! Quit teasing me!
**[12:07] ---**
Nia, I get that you're a Spirit,
but how do you know about me?
**[12:13] ---**
That I...
**[12:15] ---**
That you date Spirits
and make them fall for you?
**[12:20] ---**
Because... Raziel!
**[12:28] ---**
This is my Angel, Raziel.
It can see everything in the world.
**[12:34] ---**
In the world...?
**[12:36] ---**
What's happening anywhere in the world...
What anyone is doing...
**[12:41] ---**
For example,
how you just finished shopping
**[12:46] ---**
and were on the way home.
**[12:49] ---**
Huh? Then us meeting...?
**[12:51] ---**
You really thought it was a coincidence?
**[12:55] ---**
That some girl you found on the ground
turned out to be a Spirit?
**[12:59] ---**
A story that bad I don't want any part of.
**[13:04] ---**
So you purposely collapsed
knowing I'd help?
**[13:08] ---**
Yup.
**[13:09] ---**
And made me help with
your manga for a reason?
**[13:12] ---**
Just to meet the deadline.
**[13:14] ---**
You're kidding!
**[13:17] ---**
So, what are you after?
**[13:20] ---**
I'm not really after anything.
I just wanted to meet you.
**[13:25] ---**
Until recently, I was DEM's captive.
**[13:29] ---**
DEM? Westcott?!
**[13:31] ---**
Yup. Hence "away" for five years.
**[13:35] ---**
But I finally got a chance to escape,
and now I can get back to work!
**[13:40] ---**
Five years with DEM...
**[13:43] ---**
But while I was captive...
Ratatoskr, was it?
**[13:47] ---**
A secret organization
started looking for Spirits.
**[13:51] ---**
Um... So with your Raziel,
you know everything about me?
**[13:57] ---**
Not everything. Even Raziel
can't read the future or people's hearts.
**[14:03] ---**
But it *can* do this...
**[14:10] ---**
Huh?!
**[14:12] ---**
My body's moving on its own!
**[14:19] ---**
Eek!
**[14:21] ---**
Hold up! What was that all about?!
**[14:24] ---**
"Future Entry."
Everything written in Raziel is true--
**[14:29] ---**
Even if it's something added to it.
**[14:33] ---**
Future Entry?
**[14:34] ---**
Yup! The things written in
Raziel become true.
**[14:39] ---**
Having said that, it can be a pain
to write everything out.
**[14:44] ---**
I-I see. That does seem inconvenient.
**[14:48] ---**
Boy, you're not seeing
how terrifying Raziel can be.
**[14:53] ---**
Say, Boy... You seem to know
your way around a manga.
**[14:58] ---**
You've tried to
draw one before, haven't you?
**[15:02] ---**
I wonder what kind of manga it was?
Let's ask Mr. Raziel!
**[15:06] ---**
Let's see...
**[15:09] ---**
Ooh! The Black Knight, Lievan!
**[15:12] ---**
Uh, this girl needs some work.
**[15:15] ---**
"Flashing Thunder Wave!"
**[15:16] ---**
What a cool attack!
**[15:18] ---**
Flashing Thunder Wave!
**[15:20] ---**
All your original characters from
middle school! Talk about embarrassing!
**[15:26] ---**
S-Stop!
**[15:28] ---**
Well? See how terrifying Raziel can be?
**[15:32] ---**
Yes, it's incredible!
Sorry for doubting it.
**[15:37] ---**
Seeing how you helped with the manga
and your rice soup was tasty,
**[15:41] ---**
I thought I'd give you a chance.
**[15:44] ---**
A chance?
**[15:45] ---**
To make me fall for you with a date.
**[15:49] ---**
If you think you can win me over,
win me over.
**[15:53] ---**
I'm looking forward to next Saturday, Boy!
**[16:04] ---**
Akiba! I'm home!
Home...! Home...! Home...!
**[16:10] ---**
How to put this...
You're really decked out.
**[16:14] ---**
"Tokiya"
**[16:16] ---**
Shido, you copy?
**[16:18] ---**
Yeah, I hear you.
**[16:20] ---**
She doesn't seem hostile from
what you've said, but be on your guard.
**[16:25] ---**
Got it. Let's raise her happiness today
before DEM finds her.
**[16:31] ---**
Guys, sorry about the makeshift
command room,
**[16:35] ---**
but bear with it
until Fraxinus is repaired.
**[16:38] ---**
--Roger!
--Roger!
**[16:39] ---**
Now then, shall we begin our date?
**[16:43] ---**
"1. Cute clothes. They look good on you."
"2. What ugly clothes. I'll buy you something new."
"3. Oh? Those clothes will be fun to take off later."
**[16:44] ---**
Commander, we have choices!
**[16:46] ---**
Make your choice!
**[16:50] ---**
"1. Cute clothes. They look good on you."
"2. What ugly clothes. I'll buy you something new."
"3. Oh? Those clothes will be fun to take off later."
**[16:52] ---**
Oh? That's surprising.
The safest choice came in third.
**[16:56] ---**
"1. Cute clothes. They look good on you."
**[16:58] ---**
'Cuz, well... How to say it?
Nia's clothes are kinda..."
**[17:04] ---**
True. Complimenting that
get-up sounds like sarcasm.
**[17:08] ---**
Then, wouldn't two be best?
**[17:11] ---**
A harsh comment followed
by a glimpse of kindness!
**[17:15] ---**
Picking out her clothes is the way to go!
**[17:19] ---**
No, think about it.
Nia didn't come today to buy clothes.
**[17:26] ---**
Manga, light novels, figures, Blu-rays!
That's her goal!
**[17:29] ---**
Forcing her to shop for clothes
would be nothing short of torture!
**[17:34] ---**
Ooh! That's Nakatsugawa,
"The Man With 100 Wives," for you!
**[17:38] ---**
Your knowledge of love
transcends dimensions!
**[17:43] ---**
And according to Shido, she makes
naughty comments all the time.
**[17:48] ---**
Making a dirty joke might bring them closer.
**[17:53] ---**
Shido, try three.
**[17:55] ---**
What's up? Why so quiet, Boy?
**[17:59] ---**
Uh, no... Um, well...
**[18:02] ---**
O-Oh? Those clothes
will be fun to take off later.
**[18:09] ---**
Huh?
**[18:10] ---**
Uh, I...
**[18:15] ---**
You wanna take it all the way today?
I didn't think you were such a player!
**[18:21] ---**
Th-That's not what I--
**[18:23] ---**
You've gotta go that far to seal Spirit power?
Then lemme change my panties.
**[18:29] ---**
--Eh?!
--I'm kidding! I'm kidding!
**[18:33] ---**
You're getting advice from Ratatoskr, right?
**[18:40] ---**
Yay! Yay! Are you watching this, Kotori?!
**[18:45] ---**
I sure am. Very closely.
**[18:54] ---**
Thanks for carrying my stuff, Boy.
What a gentleman!
**[18:59] ---**
It's no big deal.
**[19:01] ---**
Yoink.
**[19:02] ---**
She's making all the moves, Shido!
**[19:04] ---**
I dunno what to say.
**[19:06] ---**
Ooh! Target spotted!
**[19:08] ---**
Let's go!
**[19:13] ---**
I haven't been here in so long,
it all feels so new!
**[19:17] ---**
Can't you keep up to date with Raziel?
**[19:21] ---**
I try to refrain from using Raziel
when it's not necessary--
**[19:26] ---**
'cuz I hate spoilers.
**[19:30] ---**
Did DEM make you use it
while you were captured?
**[19:35] ---**
Hmm? I don't really remember.
**[19:38] ---**
Huh? The whole five years?
**[19:40] ---**
They always kept tampering
with my mind and stuff.
**[19:44] ---**
But if they had such a hard time,
I doubt they were able to use it.
**[19:51] ---**
You never used Raziel
to see what happened to you?
**[19:55] ---**
Nah, I'd rather not.
I know it won't be pretty anyway.
**[20:01] ---**
"Chronicle
Kitan Tokiya"
**[20:03] ---**
Look at all the Tokiya goods!
**[20:06] ---**
You like him that much?
**[20:07] ---**
"Like" doesn't even begin to describe it!
He's the reason I got into manga!
**[20:14] ---**
Tokiya is my wife! A guy, but my wife!
**[20:17] ---**
"A Boy's Club for Two"
"Hands, Hearts, Together"
**[20:18] ---**
Uh, you like this stuff, too?
**[20:21] ---**
Hmph! Those without a
Maiden Circuit wouldn't understand.
**[20:24] ---**
Is that even a saying?
**[20:26] ---**
Pros in this field can perceive
anyone's nature in a single glance!
**[20:33] ---**
Timid bottom.
**[20:35] ---**
Hey! How did you classify me?!
**[20:39] ---**
The mood looks good. We haven't had
a date go this smooth in a while.
**[20:45] ---**
Yeah. It's about time for the next step.
**[20:51] ---**
Well, that was fun! I'm satisfied!
**[20:55] ---**
Yeah, I had a good time, too.
**[21:00] ---**
Let's swing by a café.
This way's a shortcut.
**[21:08] ---**
Nia!
**[21:20] ---**
Now's your chance, Shido!
**[21:23] ---**
N-Nia...
**[21:28] ---**
I...
**[21:32] ---**
Sorry.
**[21:35] ---**
It's no use.
**[21:36] ---**
Huh?
**[21:38] ---**
I don't wanna be chased by DEM,
**[21:42] ---**
so I really wouldn't mind if you sealed me...
**[21:48] ---**
But the truth is, I can only love 2D.
**[21:52] ---**
"Episode 01:
'Don't Panic. It's a Spirit's Trap.'"
**[21:53] ---**
Huh?
**[23:25] ---**
The opening narration can do
the episode preview. Now that's freedom.
**[23:31] ---**
Shido's dates are again underway!
**[23:33] ---**
Next time: "So Be It! 2D It Is!"
**[23:35] ---**
"Episode 02:
'So Be It! 2D It is!'"
**[23:37] ---**
*Date A Live*'s fourth act has begun!
**[23:41] ---**
**[23:43] ---**

**[00:04] ---**
What should I do, Kotori?
**[00:07] ---**
I'm not so sure myself.
This is a bit unexpected.
**[00:12] ---**
Well, anime and manga characters
are ideal companions, in a way.
**[00:19] ---**
When you compare them to real people,
reality seems like a letdown.
**[00:25] ---**
Speaking from experience?
**[00:27] ---**
Tsk, tsk, tsk. I fancy
voice actresses, too, Commander.
**[00:33] ---**
Okay then.
**[00:34] ---**
Commander. Didn't Nia say
she liked some character?
**[00:38] ---**
Tokiya. Girls seem to love him.
**[00:42] ---**
I see...
**[00:44] ---**
Shido, help is on the way.
Just follow my plan to the word.
**[00:49] ---**
He's taking forever.
Strategizing with Kotori, maybe?
**[00:55] ---**
Oh, there you are--
**[02:38] ---**
It's Tokiya.
**[02:40] ---**
From *Chronicle*?
**[02:41] ---**
That costume's legit!
**[02:44] ---**
This seat's mine, woman.
**[02:48] ---**
Tokiya...? Why?
**[02:51] ---**
Mind yourself, woman.
I didn't say you can use my name.
**[02:59] ---**
Back off, woman.
**[03:04] ---**
Happiness climbing!
**[03:06] ---**
Sealing levels reached.
**[03:08] ---**
It worked, Shido! Go for it!
**[03:11] ---**
Huh? What's wrong?
**[03:15] ---**
Shut your mouth.
**[03:20] ---**
As if!
**[03:21] ---**
Eh?
**[03:24] ---**
Happiness falling!
**[03:25] ---**
It's lower than ever!
**[03:27] ---**
No way! Why?!
**[03:31] ---**
What the hell were you thinking?
**[03:34] ---**
Huh? Meaning?
**[03:36] ---**
Tokiya would never make moves
on a woman! Use common sense!
**[03:41] ---**
Common sense?
**[03:43] ---**
Tokiya's on a journey to avenge
his little sister and lover, Hibari!
**[03:49] ---**
As a lonely observer, I wouldn't dare
intrude on that beautiful world!
**[03:55] ---**
Don't break the fourth wall!
Don't break it!
**[03:59] ---**
Hey! Calm down, Nia!
**[04:01] ---**
Tokiya would never do that!
**[04:03] ---**
If you wanna make me fall for you,
come back when you're 2D!
**[04:11] ---**
Well, that didn't work out.
**[04:14] ---**
Oh my. You sure took a beating.
**[04:17] ---**
And who's fault is that?!
**[04:19] ---**
Commander. The plan failed,
but it's true that her levels rose.
**[04:25] ---**
Precisely.
**[04:27] ---**
In other words, if a character
she likes is brought to life,
**[04:33] ---**
it's possible to raise her happiness.
**[04:36] ---**
So, 2.5D will work.
**[04:41] ---**
In that case...!
**[04:46] ---**
Was that a bit cruel of me?
**[04:50] ---**
I guess ditching him there
wasn't the nicest thing.
**[04:55] ---**
Maybe I should've let him kiss me.
**[04:59] ---**
Though, Spirit power can't be sealed
unless you open your heart.
**[05:04] ---**
He seems like a good guy,
but 3D doesn't do it for me...
**[05:11] ---**
Argh! What the hell should I do?!
Just tell me, Raziel!
**[05:21] ---**
Huh?
**[05:24] ---**
Hello. Delivery.
**[05:29] ---**
"Demo"
**[05:30] ---**
"As thanks for your services,
we've sent you a demo of a new game."
**[05:37] ---**
Really? Have I done work
for this company before?
**[05:44] ---**
Looks like a school-based *otome* game.
**[05:48] ---**
"Please input your name..."
"Back | OK"
**[05:50] ---**
Nia... Honjo...
***SIGN*** "Birthday: 2/29 Nia Honjo" "Back | OK"
**[06:00] ---**
Hey, are you the new transfer student?
I'm Shido Itsuki. Nice to meet you.
**[06:06] ---**
He looks awfully like Boy...
Just a coincidence?
**[06:12] ---**
You're so funny, Nia.
**[06:14] ---**
Whoa! He spoke my name?!
And it sounded so natural, too!
**[06:21] ---**
Games sure have come far
in the past five years!
**[06:25] ---**
Next Saturday, huh?
Sure. Where should we go?
**[06:30] ---**
"Enter your date plans"
**[06:32] ---**
You're kidding! I can write anything?!
**[06:35] ---**
"Enter your date plans"
"I wanna buy doujinshi in Akiba"
**[06:36] ---**
There's no way this works.
**[06:39] ---**
Doujinshi in Akiba?
**[06:43] ---**
That's so like you. It's a date.
**[06:49] ---**
This dialogue! This freedom!
Are games really this advanced?!
**[06:54] ---**
Science is fricken' awesome!
**[06:58] ---**
Oh? You like these kinda books?
**[07:02] ---**
No, it's all good. I think
having passions is a wonderful thing.
**[07:08] ---**
She's played for two hours.
**[07:10] ---**
Happiness is rising steadily.
**[07:13] ---**
Once Nia's done with the game,
Shido can appear before her as "Itsuki."
**[07:20] ---**
Seeing how it's really him,
there's nothing to screw up.
**[07:26] ---**
Ah... Incredible!
**[07:29] ---**
But it's just a demo,
so I'll have to buy the real version.
**[07:36] ---**
Has this publisher made anything else?
**[07:39] ---**
I'll just ask Raziel.
**[07:45] ---**
Oh, shoot!
**[07:47] ---**
Huh?
**[07:50] ---**
Grr! This was all your doing?!
**[07:53] ---**
"Emergency Meeting"
"How to make Nia Honjo fall for Shido!?"
**[07:54] ---**
Well, now we've really pissed her off.
**[07:57] ---**
"Tohka Yatogami"
**[07:58] ---**
I'm not surprised. You guys used
a fake game to basically spy on her.
**[08:04] ---**
Hey, Shido. Why does Nia only like 2D?
**[08:09] ---**
"Kotori Itsuka"
**[08:09] ---**
Huh? Well...
**[08:12] ---**
I wondered that, too.
**[08:14] ---**
Reine is checking if
she had any manga artist pals.
**[08:19] ---**
Suggestion. Shouldn't we just
make Shido suit her preferences?
**[08:25] ---**
We're talking 2D, though.
Should we flatten him with a steamroller?
**[08:30] ---**
Eh?!
**[08:31] ---**
"Natsumi"
**[08:31] ---**
In that case, what if I made him
into a manga page with Haniel?
**[08:37] ---**
Hold your horses! Making me 2D is nuts!
**[08:40] ---**
"Origami Tobiichi"
**[08:41] ---**
I think Natsumi has the right idea.
**[08:45] ---**
Let's put Shido on a page.
**[08:47] ---**
"Emergency Meeting"
"How to make Nia Honjo fall for Shido!?"
**[08:47] ---**
--What?
--Huh?
**[08:48] ---**
Though, not by
transforming Shido himself,
**[08:51] ---**
but by making a manga
where Shido is a character.
**[08:56] ---**
Wha--?!
**[08:57] ---**
I see! That's a way of making him 2D!
**[09:01] ---**
"Yuzuru Yamai"
**[09:01] ---**
Mm! It'll be fine as long as
we write stuff that's true.
**[09:07] ---**
"Yoshino"
**[09:07] ---**
Yeah. If Nia knows about
everything Shido's done for us,
**[09:12] ---**
I'm sure she'll end up liking Shido, too.
**[09:16] ---**
Really, guys?
**[09:18] ---**
Ooh! Shido in a manga!
That's awesome! I wanna help!
**[09:23] ---**
Agreement. After tying in our 39th match,
"Best Manga Submission,"
**[09:29] ---**
the two of us are due
to put our skills back to the test.
**[09:34] ---**
You guys sure compete over everything.
**[09:38] ---**
The outside line? I wonder who it is?
**[09:41] ---**
Yo! Plotting something, are we?
**[09:46] ---**
I had Raziel tell me about this line...
and about what you're planning.
**[09:52] ---**
Still, even if you do make a manga,
**[09:57] ---**
why do you just assume that I'll read it?
**[10:02] ---**
I might've taken a look at it before,
**[10:06] ---**
but you guys have put me in "angry mode."
**[10:10] ---**
With Comico coming up,
I can't waste my time.
**[10:14] ---**
Comico? You're entering Comico?
**[10:17] ---**
Yup. My first in five years.
**[10:20] ---**
Miku, what's Comico?
**[10:23] ---**
Comic Colosseum.
**[10:24] ---**
It's a convention for people
to sell the doujinshi they make.
**[10:30] ---**
If our manga was worth reading,
would you take the time to read it?
**[10:36] ---**
Hmm?
**[10:37] ---**
For example, if our manga manages
to sell more copies than yours at Comico.
**[10:44] ---**
Oh? You're actually serious?
**[10:47] ---**
Yeah. If we end up winning,
you have to read our manga.
**[10:56] ---**
Okay! You're on!
**[11:00] ---**
You think you can beat
Souji Honjo, do you?
**[11:05] ---**
H-Hey, Kotori...
**[11:08] ---**
Don't worry. I've got a plan.
**[11:16] ---**
They underestimate me.
**[11:19] ---**
They really think they can beat a pro?
**[11:24] ---**
Regardless of what happens, it's not like
I could like a real person anyway.
**[11:31] ---**
Besides, it's not like
anyone would like me, either.
**[11:39] ---**
That's the all-knowing Angel,
Raziel, is it not?
**[11:53] ---**
Nice to meet you, Nia Honjo.
My name is Kurumi Tokisaki.
**[12:13] ---**
Kurumi Tokisaki,
the Spirit who manipulates time...
**[12:17] ---**
I see. You're the one
who saved me from DEM.
**[12:22] ---**
That saves an explanation.
**[12:24] ---**
You're the second Spirit
seen after the "Spirit of Origin."
**[12:29] ---**
I've been longing to meet you.
**[12:32] ---**
Hmm? And why's that?
**[12:35] ---**
No need to be on your guard.
I just came to ask a favor.
**[12:43] ---**
Could you look into something with Raziel?
**[12:47] ---**
Tell me about the Spirit of Origin...
**[12:51] ---**
...and how to kill it.
**[12:59] ---**
Whoa! This is neat!
**[13:02] ---**
It's so "professional."
**[13:05] ---**
Comico's in two days.
Can we do it in time?
**[13:09] ---**
We'll have to.
Let's see how well everyone draws.
**[13:14] ---**
You draw something, too.
**[13:16] ---**
Me?
**[13:19] ---**
Didn't you use to sketch all the time?
**[13:22] ---**
The Black Knight, Lievan, or something?
**[13:23] ---**
"The Black Knight, Lievan"
**[13:34] ---**
If you're done drawing, let's see it!
**[13:37] ---**
I see... Yeah, very cute.
**[13:40] ---**
Really?!
**[13:42] ---**
Yeah, but I don't think
it'll work for us this time.
**[13:47] ---**
Oh...
**[13:48] ---**
S-Sorry.
**[13:54] ---**
Next one! Next!
**[13:56] ---**
No fair, Darling!
**[14:00] ---**
Whoa! You guys are pretty good!
**[14:04] ---**
So far, you two are our
best candidates. So, who's next?
**[14:11] ---**
What did you draw, Origami?!
**[14:13] ---**
Shido and me, becoming one.
**[14:17] ---**
No one asked you to draw that!
**[14:19] ---**
If we're trying to sell doujinshi,
going 18+ is the way to go.
**[14:26] ---**
We're entering as
a "General Audience" booth, you know.
**[14:31] ---**
What's up? If you drew something,
let's see it. C'mon.
**[14:36] ---**
Um, it's bad, so don't expect much.
**[14:40] ---**
I didn't sleep well last night,
and I haven't drawn in forever.
**[14:46] ---**
Okay, fine. Just show us already!
**[14:52] ---**
Incredible, Natsumi!
Who knew you had such skill?!
**[14:56] ---**
Well, I wouldn't say "skill."
**[14:59] ---**
But I did imitate
a manga artist once, just for fun.
**[15:04] ---**
That settles it!
Natsumi's our main artist.
**[15:07] ---**
With Yuzuru, Kaguya, Shido,
and Origami supporting her.
**[15:11] ---**
Roger that!
**[15:14] ---**
A-Are you really fine with me?
**[15:17] ---**
Of course! We need your talent
to help Nia, Natsumi!
**[15:24] ---**
Don't complain about it later.
**[15:27] ---**
Kotori, what can the rest of us do?
**[15:31] ---**
I have another job for you guys.
**[15:34] ---**
In a way, it's more important
than the manga.
**[15:37] ---**
Hmm?
**[15:50] ---**
Well then...
**[15:52] ---**
That's troubling news.
**[15:54] ---**
What do you suppose we do?
**[15:57] ---**
Indeed. According to what
Raziel had to say,
**[16:00] ---**
even if I gather Spirit power, I stand
no chance against the Spirit of Origin.
**[16:08] ---**
But...
**[16:11] ---**
...what does it matter anyway?
**[16:13] ---**
I'm the Spirit with power over time.
**[16:16] ---**
The notion of time makes
everything else insignificant.
**[16:26] ---**
Gah! Messed up the grid.
**[16:28] ---**
Geh! The tears are invading the white!
**[16:32] ---**
Likewise. The ink spread under the ruler.
**[16:37] ---**
It's okay. This can be fixed.
**[16:41] ---**
Shido, got a minute?
**[16:47] ---**
I'm Hiroki Takajo.
**[16:49] ---**
The manga artist!
**[16:51] ---**
Yes. Looking into Nia's--that is,
Souji Honjo's friends, led me to her.
**[16:58] ---**
I hear you guys are relatives of Honjo's?
**[17:02] ---**
Yeah. We're worried since
we're having trouble contacting Nia.
**[17:08] ---**
So, we're hoping you can share
anything you know about her.
**[17:13] ---**
Honestly, I've been
worried about her, too.
**[17:17] ---**
I was glad to hear that
she's back to making manga,
**[17:22] ---**
but since it seems that she
doesn't like me, I'm not sure I can help.
**[17:28] ---**
--Huh?
--Huh?
**[17:29] ---**
At one time, she and I
used to get along well.
**[17:34] ---**
But then she suddenly acted cold
and we drifted apart.
**[17:40] ---**
Perhaps I did something rude
to her without knowing.
**[17:45] ---**
Honjo is a kind and friendly person,
but as for her life before an artist...
**[17:52] ---**
She rarely spoke about
the friends she had in the past.
**[17:57] ---**
And I feel like she suddenly distances
herself from any friends in the making.
**[18:05] ---**
If only I knew what I did to upset her,
**[18:09] ---**
I'd take that chance to apologize, but...
**[18:16] ---**
I bet Raziel played a part in this.
**[18:19] ---**
If you had the power to know anything,
you'd look up those around you.
**[18:26] ---**
True...
**[18:27] ---**
That probably made Nia
unable to trust other people.
**[18:32] ---**
Everyone's said or done mean things
behind people's backs to some extent.
**[18:39] ---**
You'd realize how
pathetic people are in no time.
**[18:44] ---**
She only opens her heart to 2D
because she knows they won't betray her.
**[18:51] ---**
That's--
**[18:52] ---**
--You think that's all it is?
--Huh?
**[18:55] ---**
Raziel shows her people's dark side.
**[18:59] ---**
But knowing Nia's personality,
I feel like she'd look past that.
**[19:06] ---**
Anyway, let's focus on the doujinshi.
**[19:09] ---**
We need another chance to talk with Nia.
Without that, we'll get nowhere.
**[19:28] ---**
Finally! Page 57 is done!
**[19:32] ---**
I just finished 58, too.
**[19:37] ---**
I, whom only hurricanes can subdue,
have finished the last page!
***SIGN*** "Don't worry about it. Besides, we'd have been in trouble if you hadn't come." "Hey, Natsumi."
**[19:43] ---**
Gather. I'll scan all our pages
and make it digital.
**[19:49] ---**
With editing and printing,
it's gonna be a close one.
**[19:55] ---**
Good work, Shido.
**[19:57] ---**
You look exhausted, too.
What have you been up to?
**[20:04] ---**
It's a secret, Shido.
**[20:06] ---**
Look forward to it.
**[20:09] ---**
Are you okay, Natsumi?
**[20:14] ---**
Natsumi, how about a break?
**[20:18] ---**
Oh, right.
**[20:20] ---**
Swap out. You've been working non-stop.
**[20:25] ---**
No, it's fine. I'm almost done.
**[20:29] ---**
You did the storyboard, draft,
and worked harder than anyone.
**[20:34] ---**
That's right. The convention is
the real battle. Leave the rest to us.
**[20:39] ---**
Agreed. You've worked
way too hard, Natsumi.
**[20:43] ---**
Rest is important, too.
**[20:46] ---**
It's okay. I won't be
that much use at the convention.
**[20:51] ---**
This is about all I can do, so...
**[20:54] ---**
But...
**[20:56] ---**
You see, I'm really glad
I was saved by all of you guys.
**[21:01] ---**
This time, I can do my part
to help another Spirit.
**[21:07] ---**
That really... really makes me happy.
**[21:12] ---**
So, this is nothing.
I wanna show that dummy Nia, too:
**[21:18] ---**
That friends are a wonderful thing.
**[21:23] ---**
"H-Hey, Natsumi?"
**[21:26] ---**
And that's... the last... one.
**[21:29] ---**
Natsumi?!
**[21:34] ---**
Good work, Natsumi.
***SIGN*** "Dummies..." "*W-Waaah*" "H-Hey, Natsumi?"

"Episode 02:
'So Be It! 2D It Is!'"
**[21:49] ---**
Now then, shall we begin our date?
**[23:25] ---**
The doujinshi convention
is a battle of passion!
**[23:29] ---**

That's 500 yen!
**[00:10] ---**
Two for me, please!
**[00:12] ---**
Sure! 1,000 yen!
**[00:19] ---**
Looks like it's not even a contest.
**[00:23] ---**
I wouldn't be so sure about that.
Girls, get ready!
**[00:28] ---**
--Yeah!
--Yeah!
**[00:33] ---**
Wha--?!
**[00:34] ---**
We made these outfits while

Please line up to buy your copy!
**[02:20] ---**
That circle's got a bunch of cute girls.
**[02:24] ---**
They're not in the catalog.
**[02:27] ---**
Hmm? What have we got here?
**[02:29] ---**
Ooh! Thank you!
**[02:31] ---**
--Huh? No, I...
--That's 500 yen, please!
**[02:35] ---**
Uh, right... I'll take it.
**[02:38] ---**
Whoa! Thank you!
**[02:39] ---**
S-Sure.
**[02:42] ---**
I guess that works, too.
**[02:47] ---**
"Line Starts Here"
**[02:47] ---**
The line starts here!
**[02:50] ---**
Request! Please form two lines!
**[02:52] ---**
It got busy all of a sudden.
**[02:55] ---**
Two, please.
**[02:57] ---**
S-Sure! Wait, huh?!
**[03:03] ---**
Yup. It's the Ratatoskr crew.
**[03:06] ---**
So we're using shills now?
**[03:09] ---**
Hey, Tohka! We made it!
**[03:11] ---**
This place is packed!
**[03:13] ---**
That's so lame.
**[03:15] ---**
Mm! Thanks for coming, guys!
**[03:17] ---**
You know it! Since you asked,
I had to come!
**[03:21] ---**
Mm-hmm! Comico sounded fun, too.
**[03:24] ---**
Hmm? Even Itsuka's here!
You helping Tohka?
**[03:29] ---**
Y-Yeah.
**[03:30] ---**
Hmm? I feel like the protagonist
looks awfully like Itsuka.
**[03:37] ---**
That's so lame.
**[03:38] ---**
U-Um, but it's fiction! Any similarity
to real people or events is coincidental!
**[03:45] ---**
Thanks, Captain Obvious.
**[03:47] ---**
Spirits? A secret organization?
**[03:50] ---**
That's so lame.
**[03:58] ---**
Origami? It's rare for you to ask a favor.
**[04:03] ---**
Captain, Mikie, Mildred...
Thanks for coming.
**[04:08] ---**
Hey, I feel like I've
seen those girls before...
**[04:13] ---**
You haven't.
**[04:15] ---**
You seem different lately, Origami.
**[04:18] ---**
I'm not.
**[04:19] ---**
Those people...
**[04:21] ---**
They don't remember the world
before I changed history?
**[04:26] ---**
No, but we Spirits remember 'cuz we're
connected to you through Spirit power.
**[04:38] ---**
Five boxes left... And her?
**[04:42] ---**
It's no use! We'll never win!
**[04:45] ---**
Of course not. These people want
one thing--a good read.
**[04:51] ---**
You stood no chance against me in such
short a time, even with your tricks.
**[04:59] ---**
It's not over yet!
We're just getting started!
**[05:02] ---**
Hmm?
***SIGN*** "Miku here~ I'm at Comico doing a handshake event at Ratatoskr (West A-20/5). Take a photo with me~~~! #comico"
**[05:08] ---**
It's showtime!
**[05:09] ---**
"Submit"
**[05:19] ---**
It's actually her!
**[05:20] ---**
No way! Why is she here?!
**[05:23] ---**
Can we really shake your hand?!
**[05:25] ---**
Thanks for all your support,
everyone! I-It's true!
**[05:32] ---**
Miku, are you sure?
**[05:34] ---**
But you hate men!
**[05:36] ---**
Darling and everyone else gave their best,
so I refuse to stand by!
**[05:43] ---**
I'm stepping up like Natsumi!
I wanna do my part, too!
**[05:48] ---**
Thank you!
**[05:51] ---**
Hmm? Not bad. That girl's famous, huh?
**[05:55] ---**
Yeah. She's our treasured idol.
**[06:01] ---**
But can you catch up?
**[06:03] ---**
Yeah, we'll win. Not only for
our sake, but for yours, too.
**[06:10] ---**
Listen to you!
**[06:13] ---**
Maybe. Only if you win, though.
**[06:16] ---**
Honjo?
**[06:23] ---**
Um...
**[06:28] ---**
T-Takajo...
**[06:32] ---**
It's been a while.
**[06:34] ---**
I had to come when I heard
you were participating.
**[06:39] ---**
U-Uh...
**[06:42] ---**
Kotori, did you know she'd come?
**[06:45] ---**
No.
**[06:46] ---**
I'm sorry to bother you,
but there's something I have to ask.
**[06:51] ---**
Have I done something to upset you
without knowing it?
**[06:56] ---**
If so, I'd like to apologize.
**[06:59] ---**
Th-That's not...
**[07:03] ---**
Though, even if you hate me,
**[07:06] ---**
I'll always look forward
to reading your works.
**[07:11] ---**
Mm...
**[07:18] ---**
I finally get it.
**[07:22] ---**
You like her, don't you?
**[07:24] ---**
Huh?! Wh-What are you saying, Boy?
**[07:27] ---**
You didn't distance yourself
'cuz you found out her dark side.
**[07:31] ---**
You're just afraid you'll get curious
and look someday...
**[07:36] ---**
That you'll learn about her dark side.
**[07:40] ---**
You pulled away,
afraid to be let down, right?
**[07:45] ---**
Hah! You don't know what
you're talking about, Boy!
**[07:49] ---**
Five hundred yen, please!
**[07:51] ---**
Then explain yourself!
**[07:53] ---**
For hating people,
you sure get along with 'em!
**[07:57] ---**
Would you shut up?
Focus on your booth!
**[08:00] ---**
Two, right?
**[08:01] ---**
--Sorry, but no can do!
--Hey, Shido! Help out!
**[08:05] ---**
I wanna win 'cuz I wanna help you!
Ignoring the problem ain't gonna help!
**[08:11] ---**
Here's your change!
**[08:14] ---**
So what if I'm afraid?!
**[08:16] ---**
As if someone who can peep into
people's lives could make friends!
**[08:21] ---**
You won't know till you try!
**[08:24] ---**
Would you open your heart
to someone who can peep into
**[08:28] ---**
all your dark secrets and private life?!
**[08:31] ---**
I can see you on the toilet or
in the bath around the clock!
**[08:36] ---**
No one will be my friend knowing that!
**[08:42] ---**
Wh-What's so funny?!
**[08:44] ---**
Sorry, but that doesn't even faze me.
**[08:46] ---**
"Line Starts Here"
**[08:47] ---**
Privacy? What's that?
**[08:50] ---**
In fact, you're a saint for even caring.
**[08:53] ---**
Huh?
**[08:54] ---**
If you wanna peep on me, go ahead!
I'm never gonna hate you for it!
**[09:00] ---**
We're down to one copy!
**[09:02] ---**
Shido, it's our last one!
**[09:04] ---**
--Thank you!
--Thank you!
**[09:06] ---**
Ratatoskr: sold out!
**[09:08] ---**
Honjo: sold out!
**[09:12] ---**
Now then, it seems we had a tie.
**[09:18] ---**
Ah, fine. Since you guys
put up a fight, I'll read it.
**[09:27] ---**
Ugh, good grief.
**[09:31] ---**
Hmm? I see...
**[09:32] ---**
"Shido A Live"
**[09:34] ---**
A tale about Shido Itsuka
saving Spirits...
**[09:38] ---**
It's better than I thought
it would be, but still...
**[09:43] ---**
It just packs too much in.
**[09:45] ---**
With eight Spirits, there're not enough
pages to like the main character.
**[09:51] ---**
Well, it's not bad
considering the time crunch.
**[09:56] ---**
How did they even make it in time?
**[10:01] ---**
I wanna show that dummy Nia, too:
That friends are a wonderful thing.
**[10:17] ---**
The whole story was true?
Even the things he said...
**[10:32] ---**
Nia...
**[10:36] ---**
What did you think of our manga?
**[10:38] ---**
Hmm. It's all right,
**[10:41] ---**
but it's a bit naïve to think
I'd fall for you with just that.
**[10:49] ---**
Still, since it moved me a little,
**[10:54] ---**
I'm fine with giving you another shot.
**[10:57] ---**
--Huh?
--For crying out loud!
**[10:59] ---**
I'll go on another date!
**[11:01] ---**
If you're a man, make it count!
**[11:09] ---**
--Shido!
--Awesome!
**[11:11] ---**
You did it, Darling!
**[11:15] ---**
It's still too early to celebrate.
**[11:18] ---**
But, Boy--
**[11:29] ---**
N-Nia?
**[11:33] ---**
The spatial quake alarm!
**[11:34] ---**
Nia! What's wrong?!
**[11:36] ---**
Reine, what's happening?!
**[11:39] ---**
Spirit Level: Category E! Nia's inverting!
**[12:19] ---**
Spatial quake warning. Please evacuate
to the nearest shelter immediately.
**[12:25] ---**
Just as planned: Sister inverted.
**[12:29] ---**
But why, Ike?
**[12:31] ---**
For five years,
**[12:33] ---**
we put Sister through
unthinkable physical and mental agony.
**[12:38] ---**
And yet, not once
could we make her invert.
**[12:42] ---**
Before us, Sister had already
lost her faith in humanity.
**[12:48] ---**
That's why I allowed her to escape.
**[12:51] ---**
So, the micro Realizer
you planted in her brain...
**[12:56] ---**
Was to make her forget
everything we did to her.
**[13:01] ---**
But the instant she opened up to Shido
and regained her trust in humanity,
**[13:07] ---**
she remembered
five terrible years of suffering.
**[13:12] ---**
It's just like glass--the higher the fall,
the easier it breaks.
**[13:18] ---**
I'm counting on you, too.
Lend Ellen a hand.
**[13:27] ---**
Beelzebub.
**[13:32] ---**
--That's--!
--Careful, Shido!
**[13:35] ---**
It's from her Demon King.
**[13:52] ---**
Metatron!
**[13:57] ---**
Whatever this is, we can't let it be.
**[14:01] ---**
Let us take care of these
while you get to Nia and--!
**[14:06] ---**
Sorry, but I can't allow it.
**[14:12] ---**
Ellen!
**[14:13] ---**
Given your timing, I take it
you guys are responsible for this.
**[14:19] ---**
Your Demon King's power is troublesome.
Let's finish this quickly.
**[14:27] ---**
Sandalphon!
**[14:31] ---**
Kaguya, Yuzuru, and Miku take Ellen!
**[14:33] ---**
Origami, Yoshino, and Natsumi help Shido!
**[14:36] ---**
--Right!
--Right!
**[14:39] ---**
Nia!
**[14:42] ---**
Wh-What's this? I can't move!
**[14:46] ---**
Future Entry!
**[14:51] ---**
Leave it to me! Zadkiel!
**[14:53] ---**
You guys are in our way!
**[15:01] ---**
Haniel!
**[15:14] ---**
H-Huh?!
**[15:21] ---**
Wh-What?!
**[15:23] ---**
Future Entry again?!
**[15:30] ---**
Shido!
**[15:36] ---**
Zadkiel!
**[15:40] ---**
Shido used Zadkiel!
**[15:43] ---**
I can move?! Oh, I get it!
'Cuz that wasn't written down?
**[15:49] ---**
Now I can fight! Sandalphon!
**[15:58] ---**
Nia!
**[16:00] ---**
Wait... If I use Miku's Gabriel...!
**[16:04] ---**
Nia!
**[16:09] ---**
Shi... do...
**[16:11] ---**
Hang on! I'm gonna save you!
**[16:13] ---**
I won't allow it.
**[16:24] ---**
Nia!
**[16:25] ---**
Why are you here, Artemisia Ashcroft?
**[16:29] ---**
Artemisia?!
**[16:47] ---**
Isaac Westcott?!
**[16:49] ---**
Long time no see, Shido Itsuka.
I'm glad you're doing well.
**[16:55] ---**
Ah, it's marvelous!
A crystal of inverted Spirit power--
**[17:02] ---**
Qlipha!
**[17:05] ---**
At last, I take one great stride
towards my deepest desires!
**[17:28] ---**
No way! He absorbed a Sephirah?!
**[17:32] ---**
That's right, Shido Itsuka.
**[17:34] ---**
Just like you gained
the powers of eight Spirits.
**[17:42] ---**
Beelzebub.
**[17:50] ---**
Oh, how curious.
**[17:53] ---**
Just by touching a Demon King,
you know exactly how to use its power.
**[17:59] ---**
Ike!
**[18:01] ---**
Ellen, behold one of the majestic
Demon Kings which shall light our path!
**[18:08] ---**
But one is simply not enough
to satisfy our ambitions.
**[18:25] ---**
Shido! You okay?!
**[18:27] ---**
Yeah! But Nia was...!
**[18:31] ---**
Ellen, we achieved our goal.
Let's call it a day.
**[18:36] ---**
Are you sure?
**[18:38] ---**
Even my body will struggle to absorb
multiple Demon Kings at once.
**[18:44] ---**
Besides, it would be such a waste
not to savor them one by one.
**[18:52] ---**
We will meet again soon,
Shido Itsuka... and Spirits.
**[18:57] ---**
Someday, I'll make you invert
and take your Qlipha.
**[19:02] ---**
Try to enjoy your final days of peace.
**[19:09] ---**
Nia!
**[19:11] ---**
Nia! Nia! Hang in there!
**[19:15] ---**
Wait, Shido! It's faint,
but I sense her Spirit power!
**[19:19] ---**
What?!
**[19:21] ---**
Just before she was stabbed,
you pulled part of her consciousness back.
**[19:26] ---**
At that point,
she wasn't fully inverted anymore.
**[19:31] ---**
She probably has a fragment
of Sephirah left in her body.
**[19:36] ---**
In other words, you can seal her.
**[19:42] ---**
Please, Nia! Open your heart to me!
**[19:45] ---**
I don't care if you use
all my power, so...
**[19:53] ---**
Open your eyes, Nia!
**[20:03] ---**
--Nia!
--Nia!
**[20:04] ---**
Nia!
**[20:09] ---**
You don't have to shout. I can hear you.
**[20:14] ---**
Nia!
**[20:17] ---**
Thank... you...
**[21:58] ---**
First sunrise of the year!
**[22:02] ---**
Boy... Thank you for everything.
**[22:06] ---**
Don't mention it.
Everyone's been helping me, too.
**[22:11] ---**
I had time to think while I recovered...
**[22:15] ---**
...and I wanna talk to Takajo again.
**[22:19] ---**
Yeah, you should.
She's a good person, probably.
**[22:24] ---**
"Probably"?
**[22:26] ---**
It's weird. It stinks that my power was
taken, but I'm kinda at peace with it.
**[22:32] ---**
I had Raziel for, like, 30 years,
but maybe the power's too much for me.
**[22:38] ---**
Thirty years? You became
a Spirit that long ago?
**[22:43] ---**
It's 27 or 28 to be precise.
Don't I look good for my age?
**[22:49] ---**
Your Spirit power probably
halted your aging.
**[22:53] ---**
But now, you'll age normally,
so watch out!
**[22:57] ---**
Oh, by the way...
When did you guys become Spirits?
**[23:02] ---**
Five years ago for me.
**[23:04] ---**
I did about one year ago.
**[23:07] ---**
I did recently.
**[23:09] ---**
The rest of us are Pure Spirits.
**[23:12] ---**
"Pure Spirits"?
**[23:14] ---**
But Spirits were all humans
in the beginning, right?
**[23:22] ---**
"Episode 03:
'What's Yours Is Mine.'"
**[23:26] ---**
See the sky! See the stars! See Mukuro!
**[23:28] ---**
It's a new Spirit, floating in the cosmos!
**[23:32] ---**
Next time: "Space Spirit."
**[23:34] ---**
When Earth is in trouble,
Shido will rise! Shido will fight!

**[00:00] ---**
--Morning!
--Good morning!
--Morning!
**[00:02] ---**
"Class 2-4"
**[00:03] ---**
--It's been a while.
--Happy new year.
**[00:05] ---**
You, too.
**[00:07] ---**
Shido? Why are you spaced out?
**[00:10] ---**
Huh? Oh. There's a lot on my mind.
**[00:16] ---**
Spirits were humans in the beginning?
**[00:19] ---**
Oh, hold up.
**[00:21] ---**
I mean, I know I was,
so I figured the others were, too.
**[00:27] ---**
Though now that Raziel's incomplete,
I doubt I can look into it again.
**[00:34] ---**
I never could find out much
about the Spirit of Origin.
**[00:39] ---**
Having said that,
my power isn't completely gone.
**[00:44] ---**
I think I'll be able to hinder Westcott
from using Future Entry.
**[00:50] ---**
Artemisia Ashcroft is
the British Anti-Spirit Team's ace.
**[00:55] ---**
As far as Wizards go,
she's way better than me.
**[00:59] ---**
But I always thought she hated DEM,
so I wonder why she joined Westcott?
**[01:11] ---**
I hope everyone had a wonderful break!
**[01:15] ---**
Today starts our third semester
in a brand new year.
**[01:19] ---**
My birthday's not till March, though.
How old do you think I am?
**[01:26] ---**
Since I refuse to turn "thirty,"
I'm gonna call it "sirty."
**[01:35] ---**
Clever, right?
**[01:37] ---**
T-Tammie?
**[01:38] ---**
So now when you speak to me,
please refer to me as "Sir."
**[01:43] ---**
S-Sir! Yes, Sir!
**[01:46] ---**
Sir! Did something happen, Sir?
**[01:49] ---**
Oh, nothing much. Just my best friend
Eri deciding on her wedding date.
**[01:56] ---**
So happy for her...
**[02:00] ---**
Yet I'm still unclaimed. It seems
the god of tying the knot hates me.
**[02:13] ---**
Okay! Let's take attendance!
**[02:16] ---**
"Class 2-4"
**[02:16] ---**
--Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
--Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
**[02:17] ---**
Sir! You're not okay, Sir!
**[02:20] ---**
Sir! You need a break, Sir!
**[02:22] ---**
Sir! That's so lame, Sir!
**[02:25] ---**
No, no, it's all right!
**[02:27] ---**
But if a demon appeared to grant
a wish in exchange for my soul,
**[02:33] ---**
I might just say:
"Send an asteroid at Japan, please!"
**[02:38] ---**
Abracadabra! Drop on asteroid on me!
**[02:50] ---**
--An asteroid?!
--Did Tammie summon one?!
**[02:57] ---**
--Tammie!
--Tammie!
**[02:58] ---**
Shido, that's...
**[03:03] ---**
Shido, head to temp command.
**[03:06] ---**
Huh? You mean...?
**[03:08] ---**
Yeah. It's a Spirit.
**[04:45] ---**
The Spirits?
**[04:47] ---**
They're on standby like you asked.
**[04:50] ---**
What happened?
**[04:51] ---**
Check this out.
**[04:53] ---**
Something fell in the schoolyard, right?
**[04:56] ---**
The same thing happened in
all of these locations simultaneously.
**[05:02] ---**
Everywhere, simultaneously?
**[05:04] ---**
DEM and other country's
Anti-Spirit Teams were hit, too.
**[05:10] ---**
It's possible they targeted
Spirit power and magic.
**[05:14] ---**
Targeted? Who?
**[05:20] ---**
Her?
**[05:21] ---**
Yeah. It's a Spirit
we've never seen before.
**[05:25] ---**
We're giving her the code name, "Zodiac."
**[05:35] ---**
This video is from three hours ago.
DEM discovered Zodiac first.
**[05:41] ---**
We noticed odd movements from
DEM ships and probed the area.
**[05:48] ---**
Westcott most likely found her
using Beelzebub.
**[05:53] ---**
Though incomplete,
he must have managed it somehow.
**[06:14] ---**
Segva.
**[06:19] ---**
So that's her Angel?
**[06:21] ---**
Yes, "Michael."
**[06:24] ---**
Jabbing that key into things can lock
and close off their abilities.
**[06:45] ---**
Lataib.
**[07:04] ---**
An attack?
**[07:05] ---**
It's another of Michael's powers.
**[07:08] ---**
The key is put into "space"
**[07:10] ---**
and opens up something
resembling a warp gate.
**[07:15] ---**
She's able to control
where the portals will exit.
**[07:19] ---**
I see! So the asteroid at school...!
**[07:22] ---**
Correct. It's how Zodiac
carried out her attack on Earth.
**[07:28] ---**
She opened up gates in space
**[07:30] ---**
and tossed DEM ship debris through.
**[07:35] ---**
She was probably upset at being
woken from her nice little nap.
**[07:41] ---**
What will we do? Go to space?
**[07:44] ---**
Don't worry. I've got an idea.
**[07:51] ---**
It's a 3D projection.
**[07:53] ---**
If we project it into space
along with a camera,
**[07:56] ---**
you can talk to her
like you're actually there.
**[08:00] ---**
Now then, it's time for long-distance love
between Earth and space!
**[08:08] ---**
H-Hey. Hi there.
**[08:13] ---**
Kotori, help! My head! It's blown off!
**[08:16] ---**
Relax! It's still attached.
**[08:22] ---**
Calm down! I'm not an enemy.
**[08:29] ---**
Hold on!
**[08:31] ---**
I...!
**[08:33] ---**
Talk about aggressive!
I've died five times already!
**[08:37] ---**
Mm. I didn't think
she would be this violent.
**[08:41] ---**
It's a good thing
we went with a projection.
**[08:46] ---**
Strange. Why aren't you dead yet?
**[08:50] ---**
Finally, we're talking.
It's 'cuz I'm being projected here.
**[08:56] ---**
Projected? Hmm... That's strange.
**[09:01] ---**
Would you mind telling me your name?
**[09:05] ---**
Mukuro. Mukuro Hoshimiya.
**[09:08] ---**
I see. I...
***SIGN*** "1. I'm Shido Itsuka. Let's be friends."

Your choices, everyone!

**[09:23] ---**
I see. Three.
**[09:25] ---**
Yeah. One and two work,
but let's go on the offensive.
**[09:30] ---**
We haven't seen her happiness
move either way yet.
**[09:34] ---**
We need to get a reaction.
**[09:36] ---**
Shido, do three.
**[09:38] ---**
Three?!
**[09:39] ---**
Whatever happens,
it's not like you're gonna die.
**[09:42] ---**
We wanna see what sort of
reaction it gets. Hurry up.
**[09:48] ---**
I'm Shido Itsuka, your future husband.
**[09:54] ---**
I-I'm gonna make your body... crave me.
**[10:00] ---**
Shido Itsuka, huh?
**[10:03] ---**
That's it?!
**[10:04] ---**
How are her levels looking?
**[10:07] ---**
No changes across the board.
**[10:09] ---**
Levels are so flat, it's scary.
**[10:11] ---**
What is your goal? Why did you come here?
**[10:18] ---**
I go around trying
to help Spirits like you.
**[10:32] ---**
Ratatoskr?
**[10:35] ---**
There are nine others like Muku
whom you've already helped?
**[10:40] ---**
Yeah. So can you come to the surface
and let me seal your power?
**[10:46] ---**
I refuse.
**[10:48] ---**
While I understand your objective,
Muku does not need your help.
**[10:54] ---**
I'm content floating up here.
**[10:57] ---**
B-But DEM might come attack you again!
**[11:02] ---**
That scrap metal? Come as they may,
they're hardly an enemy.
**[11:08] ---**
But the surface is lots of fun.
It's sad up here by yourself.
**[11:14] ---**
It's not an issue. Muku doesn't feel sad.
**[11:18] ---**
No need to act tough.
**[11:21] ---**
It's not like that.
Muku doesn't feel loneliness.
**[11:25] ---**
Nor sadness, anger, excitement,
delight, joy, nor love.
**[11:32] ---**
Muku has locked her heart.
**[11:35] ---**
Locked... your heart?
**[11:39] ---**
Why do that?
**[11:41] ---**
I wonder why? It was so long ago,
it's hard to remember.
**[11:49] ---**
Muku wants for nothing to touch her heart.
**[11:53] ---**
That's why Muku's here,
where no one can reach.
**[11:57] ---**
That's... But that's so sad!
**[12:01] ---**
Please! Come down to Earth
so you can be happy!
**[12:07] ---**
You don't get to decide
what makes Muku happy.
**[12:11] ---**
Perhaps there are Spirits you've saved.
**[12:15] ---**
But Muku is Muku.
**[12:17] ---**
Leave me out of it.
**[12:19] ---**
Th-That's...
**[12:21] ---**
Supposing you seal my power,
can you guarantee Muku will be safe?
**[12:29] ---**
Would not the Spirits you "save"
be exposed to greater peril?
**[12:35] ---**
Shido, I tire hearing of this hypocrisy.
**[12:40] ---**
If people don't learn to leave
Muku alone, let's see...
**[12:47] ---**
I shall use Michael
to stop this planet's spin.
**[12:52] ---**
Goodbye, Shido. May we not meet again.
**[12:56] ---**
Segva.
**[13:02] ---**
The image was cut!
**[13:04] ---**
The camera's not responding!
**[13:11] ---**
Ow!
**[13:12] ---**
You're that depressed
over getting shot down?
**[13:15] ---**
I understand her view.
**[13:18] ---**
If not for us,
**[13:20] ---**
some Spirits might've had
better futures and be better off.
**[13:25] ---**
But don't forget:
Spirits cause huge disasters, too.
**[13:30] ---**
A power that dangerous looming above us
is something we can't ignore.
**[13:35] ---**
But if we leave her alone,
she won't do anything.
**[13:39] ---**
Even if we don't, what about DEM?
**[13:44] ---**
If DEM beats Mukuro,
Westcott will gain her power.
**[13:49] ---**
And if they fail,
Mukuro will devastate the Earth.
**[13:53] ---**
We have no choice but to seal
Mukuro's powers before DEM gets her.
**[14:00] ---**
You're right. I guess we've gotta.
**[14:04] ---**
Well? What are they saying?
**[14:06] ---**
Request. Stop pushing me.
**[14:08] ---**
Shh! They'll hear!
**[14:13] ---**
What are you guys doing?
**[14:16] ---**
Mm. Sorry. We didn't mean to eavesdrop.
**[14:20] ---**
Don't apologize! In fact, it's only
natural we're worried about Darling!
**[14:26] ---**
We may have overheard a little.
Is there any way we can help?
**[14:32] ---**
There's just one option:
**[14:35] ---**
Use her Angel to open
the very same heart she closed.
**[14:39] ---**
In other words,
use Michael on Mukuro again.
**[14:44] ---**
I see! But we can't do that
without going to her in person.
**[14:50] ---**
Don't worry. I've got a plan.
**[14:52] ---**
--Huh?
--Huh?
**[14:53] ---**
What good timing.
There's something I wanna show you.
**[15:04] ---**
Fraxinus' bridge?
**[15:07] ---**
No, it's different than before.
**[15:10] ---**
Yup. It's a new model with
everything upgraded: Fraxinus Excelsior!
**[15:16] ---**
Space is a cakewalk for her!
**[15:19] ---**
Hello, Fraxinus. How goes it?
**[15:23] ---**
Welcome, Kotori. It's good to see you.
**[15:26] ---**
Wha--?!
**[15:27] ---**
How rude, Shido.
**[15:30] ---**
Were I a Spirit,
my happiness would drop.
**[15:33] ---**
It's Fraxinus' AI. The upgrades
made it able to converse.
**[15:38] ---**
My call sign is MARIA. It's a pleasure
to work with you again, Shido.
**[15:43] ---**
Yeah. It's a pleasure, MARIA.
**[15:46] ---**
So? How long till we can depart, MARIA?
**[15:50] ---**
Roughly 90 minutes.
**[15:52] ---**
I've restored everyone's customizations,
**[15:57] ---**
but please confirm them individually.
**[16:01] ---**
--Roger!
--Roger!
**[16:02] ---**
Also, please limit personal goods
brought on the bridge.
**[16:06] ---**
You do not need straw dolls
or anime figures.
**[16:10] ---**
You're kidding!
**[16:11] ---**
You never complained before!
**[16:14] ---**
Because I couldn't speak.
**[16:16] ---**
Also, please refrain from
calling ex-wives and call girls.
**[16:22] ---**
--Eh?!
--Eh?!
**[16:23] ---**
Cameras are not to be used
to spy on past lovers.
**[16:27] ---**
No way!
**[16:29] ---**
You guys were using
Fraxinus for such things?
**[16:33] ---**
--No!
--As if!
--We'd never!
**[16:36] ---**
Kotori, an on-base visitor
is asking for a meeting.
**[16:40] ---**
Meeting?
**[16:41] ---**
It's Chairman Elliot Woodman.
**[16:43] ---**
The chairman?!
**[16:45] ---**
You know him, Shido?
**[16:47] ---**
No, the name rings no bells.
**[16:57] ---**
Hey. It's been a while.
**[16:59] ---**
You're...!
**[17:01] ---**
I remember! You asked for directions.
**[17:05] ---**
That I did.
**[17:07] ---**
Allow me to reintroduce myself:
**[17:11] ---**
I'm Elliot Baldwin Woodman.
**[17:16] ---**
Kotori? Who is he?
**[17:19] ---**
He's the chairman of Ratatoskr's
decision-making round table.
**[17:24] ---**
He's it's head and founder.
**[17:28] ---**
Shido Itsuka, you have my thanks.
Thank you for saving so many Spirits.
**[17:35] ---**
Uh, no, thank you.
Without Ratatoskr, I'd get nowhere.
**[17:41] ---**
I've got questions.
First off, Elliot Baldwin Woodman...
**[17:46] ---**
That is you, right?
**[17:49] ---**
Yes.
**[17:50] ---**
Tell me: As one of DEM's
founding members,
**[17:54] ---**
what's your goal behind saving
Spirits, when 30 years ago,
**[17:58] ---**
it was you who first manifested them?
**[18:02] ---**
They manifested... Spirits?
**[18:05] ---**
If you hadn't manifested
Spirits and made DEM,
**[18:10] ---**
we wouldn't have had
to go through all this.
**[18:13] ---**
What exactly are you plotting?
**[18:17] ---**
I see. You have the power
to look up anything, don't you?
**[18:22] ---**
You must have done so to me long ago.
**[18:26] ---**
I never meant to hide anything.
**[18:29] ---**
Yes, I founded DEM along with
Isaac Westcott and Ellen Mathers
**[18:36] ---**
hoping to utilize the power of Spirits.
**[18:40] ---**
But laying eyes upon the Spirit of Origin
changed me forever.
**[18:46] ---**
I left DEM with Karen Mathers here,
**[18:50] ---**
who felt the same as me.
**[18:54] ---**
Mathers...
**[18:55] ---**
She is Ellen Mathers' little sister,
though Ellen looks like the younger one.
**[19:03] ---**
Anyway, I dedicated my life
to the protection of Spirits,
**[19:09] ---**
despite making enemies of Ike and Ellen.
**[19:13] ---**
What exactly happened?
**[19:17] ---**
Love. Love happened.
**[19:20] ---**
Love?
**[19:21] ---**
The moment I saw the Spirit of Origin,
she stole my heart away.
**[19:32] ---**
That's why I can't stand seeing
other Spirits like her in pain--
**[19:39] ---**
as silly a reason as it seems.
**[19:44] ---**
I don't think it's silly.
**[19:46] ---**
Actually, I'm kinda glad Ratatoskr
was founded by someone like you.
**[19:54] ---**
Thank you. Sorry, but can I get
a better look at your face?
**[19:59] ---**
Huh? Um, sure.
**[20:06] ---**
I see. You look like the boy after all...
**[20:11] ---**
Huh?
**[20:15] ---**
Emergency! Confirming DEM airship above!
We're under attack!
**[20:22] ---**
You're kidding! How did they find us?
**[20:25] ---**
Beelzebub!
**[20:43] ---**
Commander Itsuka, take the Fraxinus.
**[20:46] ---**
Once I deal with things here,
I'll escape another way.
**[20:50] ---**
Roger that. Stay safe.
**[20:53] ---**
Take care of the Spirits, Shido Itsuka.
And please, save Zodiac.
**[21:05] ---**
Just how many enemies are there?
**[21:07] ---**
I don't know, so let's hurry!
**[21:14] ---**
That's...!
**[21:19] ---**
Westcott...
**[21:21] ---**
Well, well.
**[21:23] ---**
I finally tracked down
Elliot and you guys show up.
**[21:28] ---**
It's lovely to see you again,
but I need you bunch to behave.
**[21:34] ---**
I'll play with you after Elliot.
**[21:52] ---**
"Episode 04:
'Space Spirit.'"
**[23:25] ---**
Once upon a time,
there was a man named Shido Itsuka.
**[23:29] ---**
Who awaits Shido, Momotaro,
and Little Red Riding Hood at the ball?
**[23:35] ---**
Next time: "Fairy Tale."
**[23:35] ---**
"Episode 04: 'Fairy Tale.'"

**[00:07] ---**
Where... am I?
**[00:13] ---**
Hmm?
**[00:28] ---**
A pig in a straw house... It's as if...
**[00:34] ---**
You're mine, juicy little piggy!
**[02:31] ---**
That was close.
**[02:33] ---**
Shido?
**[02:36] ---**
Shido, I'm so glad to see you.
**[02:40] ---**
Yoshino? What's that outfit?
**[02:43] ---**
I don't know. I was in it when I got here.
**[02:47] ---**
I was told to bring this to Grandma's.
**[02:51] ---**
It's bizarre.
**[02:53] ---**
Spirit power and Angels don't work here,
so we just went with the flow.
**[02:58] ---**
Well, I'm one of the
Three Little Pigs, so I'm thinking...
**[03:05] ---**
Wait. If this is Grandma's house
in *Little Red Riding Hood*...
**[03:11] ---**
What a good little girl.
**[03:16] ---**
Not only did you come, but you brought
a tasty piggy with you, too!
**[03:23] ---**
Grandma's gone beast mode!
**[03:25] ---**
I'm gonna gobble both of you up!
**[03:38] ---**
You okay, Shido?! Yoshino?!
**[03:41] ---**
Tohka... Nia...
**[03:44] ---**
Tohka! Give 'em one of those
millet dumplings on your belt!
**[03:50] ---**
These?
**[04:00] ---**
Gee, I'm so sorry!
I get like that when I'm hangry.
**[04:05] ---**
Uh, right...
**[04:08] ---**
That's Momotaro's
millet dumplings for you!
**[04:12] ---**
Who knew dumplings did that?
**[04:15] ---**
Nia, what in the world is this?
Were we swallowed by Beelzebub?
**[04:21] ---**
More like we're in a world
that was created by Beelzebub.
**[04:26] ---**
Which story are you?
**[04:28] ---**
Oh, me? I'm Fatima from *Silver Bullet*.
**[04:32] ---**
That's your own fricken manga.
**[04:34] ---**
How do we get back to our world?
**[04:37] ---**
Well, Westcott's not gonna let us out.
**[04:41] ---**
Which means we've gotta find someone
with the power to break us out of here.
**[04:48] ---**
There's someone that convenient here?
**[04:51] ---**
I don't know, but let's find out.
**[04:54] ---**
The others should be
somewhere in this world, too.
**[05:11] ---**
Kotori! Hey, Kotori!
**[05:13] ---**
Concern. She won't wake up.
**[05:17] ---**
In that case... Oh, Shido! Over here!
**[05:22] ---**
Request. Kotori's in danger.
She needs a cardiac massage.
**[05:31] ---**
Hey! What's the big idea?!
**[05:34] ---**
U-Uh... Huh?
**[05:37] ---**
We fooled you, Kotori!
**[05:39] ---**
Agreement. I figured Shido's name
might wake you by the power of love.
**[05:46] ---**
"Ratatoskr"
**[05:51] ---**
What this?
**[05:52] ---**
I guess I'm the Little Match Girl.
**[05:55] ---**
This must be Westcott's doing.
**[06:05] ---**
This is a vision? It's so real!
**[06:08] ---**
Wonder! Even Shido is in it!
**[06:12] ---**
Kotori's feelings for Shido must've
made their way into her dreams.
**[06:17] ---**
I-It's supposed to be her dead grandma!
Anyway, what's your story?
**[06:24] ---**
What's this?
**[06:25] ---**
Before we knew it,
we found ourselves in a forest.
**[06:29] ---**
After walking a bit,
we came upon a candy house.
**[06:35] ---**
Explanation. Since we were hungry,
we snacked on the walls and roof.
**[06:41] ---**
A-ha. Hansel and Gretel, huh?
**[06:44] ---**
A creepy hag tried talking to us,
but we ignored her and ran away.
**[06:51] ---**
Agreement. She chased us
with terrifying speed.
**[06:56] ---**
But nobody can keep pace with us!
**[06:59] ---**
Truth. Kaguya had tears in her eyes
and may have peed herself.
**[07:05] ---**
I didn't pee myself!
**[07:15] ---**
We've gotta find the others
and get back to our world.
**[07:20] ---**
Though, where do we even start?
**[07:24] ---**
So many carriages today. What's happening?
**[07:27] ---**
I heard they're revealing something
amazing at the castle ball.
**[07:33] ---**
The emperor captured
a mermaid and plans to show it off!
**[07:38] ---**
They say it sings, "Darling! Darling!"
**[07:46] ---**
Scattered battles around base!
**[07:49] ---**
DEM Wizards and Bandersnatch confirmed!
**[07:52] ---**
--The Commander?!
--Can't reach her!
**[07:54] ---**
God help us! Misty help us!
**[07:58] ---**
Relax.
**[07:59] ---**
In times like this, losing your cool
is more dangerous than the enemy.
**[08:06] ---**
Don't worry. I know the crew's
capabilities better than anyone.
**[08:12] ---**
Well, well. You stole my thunder.
**[08:16] ---**
Like MARIA said, let's stay calm.
Have we heard from base?
**[08:21] ---**
Woodman is safe.
**[08:24] ---**
He's urging us to take Fraxinus
and head to Zodiac.
**[08:29] ---**
In that case, let's protect it
until Kotori and the others return.
**[08:35] ---**
Damage to our hull!
Enemies have breached the hangar!
**[08:39] ---**
MARIA, set Territory to 50
and activate jamming.
**[08:44] ---**
Acknowledged. Deploying Territory.
**[08:50] ---**
Our Territory neutralized the enemy.
**[08:54] ---**
It's deadly to machines that move
by generative magic.
**[08:58] ---**
Well done, Vice Commander!
**[08:59] ---**
But in the end, it's just Territory.
It won't stop humans and bullets.
**[09:06] ---**
Hands up!
**[09:07] ---**
Move and we'll shoot!
**[09:12] ---**
So this is Fraxinus...
**[09:14] ---**
Westcott will be pleased.
**[09:32] ---**
Huh?
**[09:35] ---**
Thank MARIA for that projection!
**[09:48] ---**
M-Mi...
**[09:50] ---**
Misty? Misty?!
**[09:54] ---**
How dare you hurt my Misty!
**[10:12] ---**
Good work, everyone.
**[10:14] ---**
Nakatsugawa, Shiizaki...
**[10:17] ---**
Y-Yes?
**[10:18] ---**
I've seen the usefulness
of figures and straw dolls.
**[10:22] ---**
I'm granting permission
to bring them on the bridge.
**[10:26] ---**
Misty!
**[10:39] ---**
Whoa. That castle
sure shouts "fairy tale."
**[10:44] ---**
Lots of people come through here,
so we might learn something.
**[10:48] ---**
C'mon, let us in!
**[10:50] ---**
Shido, look!
**[10:53] ---**
--Meanie!
--Stubborn.
**[10:55] ---**
Kotori? Kaguya! Yuzuru!
**[10:59] ---**
Shido! You're all right!
**[11:02] ---**
Uh, what's with the outfits?
**[11:04] ---**
You're one to talk.
**[11:06] ---**
What's the problem here?
**[11:09] ---**
We came to see the castle's mermaid.
**[11:12] ---**
I guess it cries out, "Darling! Darling!"
**[11:17] ---**
I see.
**[11:18] ---**
But this guard is a doofus!
**[11:21] ---**
Upset. He won't let us through!
**[11:24] ---**
Of course not! You're not
getting past me dressed like that!
**[11:36] ---**
Greetings, my friends.
**[11:40] ---**
Natsumi?
**[11:52] ---**
Sir, these are my attendants.
May they enter with me?
**[11:57] ---**
Uh, but...! That's...!
**[12:01] ---**
You don't mind, do you?
**[12:04] ---**
Uh... G-Go on ahead.
**[12:11] ---**
Um...
**[12:21] ---**
You little..! Get your witchcraft
outta here and don't come back!
**[12:29] ---**
So Natsun's Cinderella, huh?
**[12:32] ---**
"Natsun"?
**[12:34] ---**
Grr! At this rate,
we'll just have to use force!
**[12:38] ---**
Agreement. With our numbers,
we don't need Angels.
**[12:41] ---**
Hold up. Let's be smart about this.
**[12:45] ---**
"Ratatoskr"
**[12:56] ---**
Clever thinking, Kotori.
**[12:59] ---**
Don't let the candle go out
or we'll go back to normal.
**[13:04] ---**
Why am I in a dress, too?
**[13:07] ---**
Makes it easier
to get into the ball, right?
**[13:20] ---**
What a fancy castle.
That's Cinderella's ball for you.
**[13:26] ---**
Where's the mermaid?
I don't see it anywhere.
**[13:30] ---**
Ladies and gentlemen, look to the stage!
**[13:33] ---**
It's time to behold
the song of the mermaid!
**[13:43] ---**
--Miku!
--Miku!
**[13:45] ---**
Darling! Everyone! What lovely dresses!
And Darling's in Shiori mode!
**[13:51] ---**
Fill me in on the details!
Did anyone think to record it?!
**[13:56] ---**
C-Calm down. Anyway,
how did you end up here?
**[14:01] ---**
Before I knew it, I was in the water.
**[14:04] ---**
But an evil witch said she'd make me
human in exchange for my voice.
**[14:09] ---**
So *The Little Mermaid*, then.
**[14:12] ---**
But if you're still a mermaid...
**[14:14] ---**
Yup! I'd never let anyone take my voice,
so I smacked her with my tail and fled!
**[14:22] ---**
But then, fishermen
caught me on the beach...
**[14:25] ---**
What's this commotion?
**[14:33] ---**
The emperor!
**[14:34] ---**
--Wha--?!
--Oh my!
**[14:39] ---**
--Th-That's the rumored...
--What a wonderful outfit!
**[14:44] ---**
Truly! It's like a veil of mist!
**[14:50] ---**
Shido, everyone... I'm glad you're okay.
**[14:54] ---**
Y-Yeah. But... are you okay?
**[14:59] ---**
I don't understand.
**[15:01] ---**
How to put it...?
You didn't get mugged, did you?
**[15:05] ---**
Origami! What kind of
outfit is that?! You're naked!
**[15:11] ---**
Did you just...?!
**[15:12] ---**
Did she insult the emperor's clothes?!
**[15:16] ---**
I got it from wandering tailors.
**[15:19] ---**
Those without love for Shido can't see it.
**[15:22] ---**
And since you can't see it, Tohka...
**[15:24] ---**
Wha--?! H-Hold on!
**[15:26] ---**
M-My, what splendid skin-like clothes!
**[15:31] ---**
No need to fake it, Tohka.
It's *The Emperor's New Clothes*.
**[15:36] ---**
*The Emperor's New Clothes*...
**[15:41] ---**
I had no idea.
**[15:43] ---**
You didn't think it strange?
**[15:45] ---**
When they said you can't see it without
love, I thought I caught of glimpse of it.
**[15:52] ---**
I-I see...
**[15:53] ---**
But this is good.
We're all together again.
**[15:57] ---**
Yeah. And Origami is emperor.
**[16:00] ---**
She can use her power to search
the lands for a superhero.
**[16:05] ---**
"Superhero"?
**[16:07] ---**
Yup. There might be someone powerful
who can return us to our world.
**[16:15] ---**
True. With my power,
I can issue a search of the lands.
**[16:20] ---**
We might find an item or something.
**[16:23] ---**
Ooh! We'll get back
to our world in no time!
**[16:27] ---**
Let's start right away and--!
**[16:36] ---**
The wolf!
**[16:45] ---**
It can't be! Ogres from Onigashima!
**[16:49] ---**
You weren't coming,
so we came to find you!
**[16:54] ---**
What the hell?!
**[16:56] ---**
Oh, that's mine. A monster from
*Silver Bullet* revives in Part 2,
**[17:01] ---**
gets powerful in Part 3, and
comes for revenge on Fatima.
**[17:06] ---**
Those damn recurring villains!
**[17:12] ---**
So be it!
**[17:14] ---**
Wait! We can't use our Spirit
power here! We won't win!
**[17:19] ---**
Then what should we do?!
**[17:23] ---**
Would not the Spirits you "save"
be exposed to greater peril?
**[17:30] ---**
Shido, I tire hearing of this hypocrisy.
**[17:36] ---**
Run, you guys!
**[17:46] ---**
"Little Red Riding Hood"
**[17:50] ---**
Who the hell are you?!
**[17:52] ---**
Just a neighborhood high schooler.
**[18:01] ---**
--That's... Shido?
--What's going on?
**[18:04] ---**
Oh! He's from the manga we drew!
**[18:08] ---**
Oh, yeah! 'Cuz this world
is a mix of stories!
**[18:13] ---**
It's not unusual for the "Shido"
from our manga to be here.
**[18:17] ---**
What's more, he's like
Shido Itsuka, but not!
**[18:23] ---**
He's a manga hero!
He's both super cool and super strong!
**[18:28] ---**
You okay, me?
**[18:30] ---**
Y-Yeah. Thanks, me.
**[18:34] ---**
Now we're starting to sound like Kurumi.
**[18:38] ---**
This can't be good. If you're all here,
I take it Westcott's involved?
**[18:44] ---**
That saves the explanation.
Can we return to our world somehow?
**[18:49] ---**
We need to get back as soon as possible.
**[18:52] ---**
Don't worry. Leave it to me.
**[18:56] ---**
This world was made by a Demon King,
**[19:00] ---**
which means it can be broken by an Angel.
**[19:04] ---**
Though I may be fiction, while in
this world, my Angel's the real deal!
**[19:16] ---**
Go through here to get back!
**[19:19] ---**
Thanks, Shido!
**[19:32] ---**
Hey, me.
**[19:34] ---**
Hmm? What's up, me?
**[19:37] ---**
I'm supposed to help
this Spirit named Mukuro, but...
**[19:44] ---**
You have doubts:
**[19:46] ---**
"If I hadn't sealed the Spirits' powers,
**[19:49] ---**
they wouldn't face so much danger.
**[19:53] ---**
Maybe I made the wrong choice."
**[19:57] ---**
I know, because you're me.
**[20:00] ---**
Even so, I'd go help that Spirit.
**[20:05] ---**
But Mukuro wants to be left alone.
**[20:08] ---**
True, but doesn't it seem strange to you?
**[20:13] ---**
She locked her heart to not be sad.
**[20:17] ---**
Doesn't that mean she was sad enough
at one point to resort to that?
**[20:23] ---**
Her words sound like an SOS to me.
**[20:28] ---**
For starters, what is it I want for her?
**[20:32] ---**
"What is it I want for her?"
**[20:36] ---**
I see. You're right. Thanks.
**[20:42] ---**
Good luck, high schooler.
**[20:44] ---**
You, too, neighborhood high schooler.
**[20:53] ---**
Took long enough, Shido.
**[20:56] ---**
What happened?
Did you talk with the other Shido?
**[21:03] ---**
Yeah, just a bit. But I'm fine now.
Let's go save Mukuro!
**[21:13] ---**
Commander!
**[21:19] ---**
We need to get to Mukuro quickly.
**[21:22] ---**
Prepare to launch!
Realizers in parallel drive!
**[21:25] ---**
Deploy Territory in avoid mode!
Fraxinus Excelsior, lift off!
**[21:52] ---**
"Episode 05:
'Fairy Tale'"
**[23:25] ---**
Fraxinus gets a new life,
but blocking their way is Ellen in Goetia.
**[23:32] ---**
How will this fated showdown end?
**[23:34] ---**
Next time: "An Opened Heart."
**[23:35] ---**
"Episode 06: 'An Opened Heart"'
**[23:37] ---**
Shido and Mukuro's destiny awaits!
**[23:39] ---**

**[00:05] ---**
To think we'd be trounced so thoroughly...
**[00:10] ---**
But that's Ike, I suppose.
**[00:13] ---**
Isaac's like a child--he just wants
to strut around with his new toy.
**[00:21] ---**
Has everyone evacuated?
**[00:24] ---**
It's underway. Have patience.
**[00:38] ---**
Yo, Elliot... Karen...
**[00:42] ---**
It's been a while, Ike.
**[00:45] ---**
You've sure made a violent entrance
for visiting an old friend.
**[00:50] ---**
I don't want much--
**[00:54] ---**
just to bring you
and Karen back to DEM.
**[00:59] ---**
If I refuse?
**[01:02] ---**
Well then, you'll just
have to play with me.
**[01:06] ---**
Beelzebub.
**[01:10] ---**
So be it. You've never been
one to listen to others.
**[01:17] ---**
Please, Elliot.
**[01:19] ---**
It's all right, Karen.
**[01:22] ---**
Now that I think of it,
this is the first time we've faced off.
**[01:28] ---**
Yeah. I'm shaking in my boots
at the very thought of it, Elliot.
**[03:18] ---**
Mukuro...
**[03:20] ---**
So that's Mukuro?
**[03:29] ---**
Michael.
**[03:32] ---**
Lataib.
**[03:44] ---**
Deploy Protect Territory!
**[03:54] ---**
Hmm?
**[03:55] ---**
Now you can reach her without a spacesuit.
Shido, it's do or die.
**[04:01] ---**
Got it. Send me to her.
**[04:05] ---**
It's the enemy. Four DEM ships.
**[04:08] ---**
Goetia... She got us good
before history was changed, but...
**[04:15] ---**
I'm glad to get a shot at revenge.
**[04:18] ---**
Deploy Dual Territory:
Spatial Control and Defense!
**[04:22] ---**
--Sir!
--Sir!
**[04:22] ---**
Time to teleport.
Mukuro's all yours, Shido.
**[04:26] ---**
Leave it to me! Stay safe, guys!
**[04:34] ---**
You're Shido, correct? I told you:
Muku doesn't want to be saved.
**[04:41] ---**
I didn't come to talk with you.
**[04:44] ---**
I'm here for the real Mukuro
whose heart isn't locked.
**[04:49] ---**
It was Muku who locked Muku's own heart.
**[04:53] ---**
Mind your own business.
**[04:56] ---**
But why would you lock your own heart?
What happened that--?
**[05:01] ---**
You're free to disregard my warning
**[05:04] ---**
just as Muku is free
to deal with you as I see fit.
**[05:15] ---**
I won't let my big brother get hurt!
**[05:18] ---**
Kotori!
**[05:19] ---**
Yup. We're using Territory to detect
and dodge incoming objects.
**[05:25] ---**
But don't over-rely on it.
You won't last getting hit by an Angel.
**[05:30] ---**
Got it! Thanks, Kotori! MARIA!
**[05:35] ---**
Haniel!
**[05:37] ---**
Hmm. I see...
An Angel you stole from a Spirit?
**[05:42] ---**
It's mean to say I stole it.
I'm borrowing it to save you!
**[05:47] ---**
Kaleidoscope!
**[05:53] ---**
What...?
**[05:54] ---**
Mukuro, I'm gonna open
your heart with this!
**[06:01] ---**
Commander, Bandersnatch.
**[06:03] ---**
That's not all! This response...!
**[06:08] ---**
Artemisia Ashcroft.
**[06:10] ---**
Kotori!
**[06:11] ---**
We'll fight, too.
**[06:13] ---**
I'll help, too!
**[06:15] ---**
We'll make the wind blow,
even here in the airless sky!
**[06:19] ---**
Agreement. We won't sit around
and do nothing.
**[06:24] ---**
So be it. I was hoping to keep
you guys out of the fight, but...
**[06:30] ---**
MARIA, it's time for *that*.
Origami can handle it.
**[06:34] ---**
Roger.
**[06:37] ---**
An emergency arming device...
**[06:41] ---**
AW-111, Brunhild. It's our latest model.
Put it to good use.
**[06:57] ---**
Territory hit! No damage!
**[07:01] ---**
Not even a greeting first?
Now that's a low blow.
**[07:05] ---**
Receiving transmission.
**[07:08] ---**
We meet again, Kotori Itsuka.
**[07:11] ---**
What do you want, Ellen Mathers?
For us to surrender?
**[07:16] ---**
That's right. I see you have a new ship,
but it's useless.
**[07:22] ---**
I'll just wreck it *again*.
**[07:25] ---**
I see. They must know, too:
**[07:28] ---**
that in the other world,
Fraxinus was destroyed by Goetia.
**[07:35] ---**
Beelzebub's power is impressive.
Your boss must be in good spirits.
**[07:41] ---**
Good spirits, you say?
That's not far from the truth.
**[07:46] ---**
I know. Otherwise, he wouldn't be
invading enemy bases himself.
**[07:52] ---**
Huh? What did you say?
Ike attacked Ratatoskr?
**[07:57] ---**
What, you didn't know?
**[07:59] ---**
Oh? I thought you were close,
but I guess he doesn't trust you.
**[08:06] ---**
If you think I'm lying, go check yourself.
Or are you scared to know?
**[08:11] ---**
Trying to rile me up won't work.
**[08:15] ---**
I'll simply check after the battle
is over. It won't take five minutes.
**[08:24] ---**
Enemy moving to surround.
**[08:27] ---**
Change of plans: only Tohka and Origami
go out. Everyone else, standby.
**[08:32] ---**
Aww! Why?!
**[08:34] ---**
Opinion. We can help, too.
**[08:37] ---**
I've got a plan.
For now, just do as I say.
**[08:42] ---**
Bring it on, my dear rival.
**[08:46] ---**
I'll show you the power
of the new Fraxinus.
**[08:50] ---**
Now then, shall we begin our date?
**[08:58] ---**
Lataib.
**[09:01] ---**
Zadkiel!
**[09:04] ---**
How strange. Are you truly human?
**[09:07] ---**
That's what I tell myself, at least!
**[09:14] ---**
Artemisia Ashcroft!
**[09:17] ---**
Sorry, but I'll be taking that Spirit!
**[09:30] ---**
--You okay, Shido?
--Origami!
**[09:37] ---**
Shido!
**[09:44] ---**
You okay, Shido?
**[09:46] ---**
Yeah! Thanks, Tohka!
**[09:50] ---**
Zadkiel!
**[09:55] ---**
Sandalphon!
**[10:00] ---**
--Fall back, Tohka!
--Are you sure?
**[10:03] ---**
I'm fine. Kotori, can you do me a favor?
**[10:12] ---**
Artemisia, why are you with DEM?
**[10:15] ---**
It doesn't make sense for you
to be friendly with them.
**[10:22] ---**
How do you know my name?
**[10:29] ---**
It doesn't matter. With you around,
it seems I can't finish my mission.
**[10:34] ---**
Sorry, but I'll have to destroy you!
**[10:41] ---**
You're strong. Way stronger than me...
as a Wizard.
**[10:49] ---**
That's...?
**[10:52] ---**
I see... You were there
when I came for Sister.
**[11:00] ---**
Good. If you're a Spirit,
I can kill you without guilt.
**[11:14] ---**
Deploy Yggdrafolium one through ten!
**[11:33] ---**
Converging magic power cannon,
Mistilteinn! Fire!
**[11:54] ---**
It's one of Fraxinus' new powers.
Modeled off Goetia, unfortunately.
**[11:59] ---**
Your power and maneuverability
have certainly increased.
**[12:04] ---**
However, those who challenge Heaven
will have their wings plucked.
**[12:10] ---**
Be scorched by the flames of God.
**[12:31] ---**
Who said we only had one trump card?
**[12:34] ---**
Thanks, guys. My Spirit power
alone wouldn't cut it.
**[12:39] ---**
Of course. I'm glad to help.
**[12:42] ---**
When we come together, we're unbeatable!
**[12:46] ---**
It's like all our Spirit powers
are mixing together!
**[12:50] ---**
Something about that
makes me really happy!
**[12:54] ---**
System Blōt:
**[12:56] ---**
a new weapon driven by Spirit power
which surpasses the limits of Territory.
**[13:03] ---**
This time, victory is ours!
Bite the dust, World's Strongest Wizard!
**[13:17] ---**
Only the small fry are left!
Let's clean 'em up!
**[13:26] ---**
You're still here?
You really don't learn, Shido.
**[13:32] ---**
I told you:
I came to unlock to your heart!
**[13:36] ---**
Michael!
**[13:43] ---**
--Let's go, Tohka!
--Mm!
**[13:50] ---**
Mm. I knew you'd try that.
**[13:54] ---**
Nice try, but it's over now.
**[14:00] ---**
Now, Shido!
**[14:04] ---**
You're kidding...
Who are you?
**[14:07] ---**
A neighborhood high schooler. Lataib!
**[14:18] ---**
Metatron!
**[14:22] ---**
Not bad--combining Spirit power
and generative magic.
**[14:28] ---**
Goetia!
**[14:31] ---**
You've lost. Give it up.
**[14:37] ---**
I'm afraid you're wrong.
Our goal... is to take out the Spirits!
**[14:46] ---**
Shido!
**[14:49] ---**
Mukuro!
**[14:51] ---**
Zadkiel!
**[14:54] ---**
--Shido!
--Shido!
**[15:04] ---**
It's all right, Mukuro!
I'll protect you!
**[15:23] ---**
Nice to meet you. I'm going to be
your new mother. And this is Dad.
**[15:30] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[15:33] ---**
I'll be your sister, so let's get along.
**[15:54] ---**
--Shido!
--Shido!
**[15:55] ---**
--Boy!
--Darling!
**[15:57] ---**
What's wrong, Shido? You're crying?
**[16:00] ---**
Uh, it's just from a dream I had.
Where is this?
**[16:05] ---**
Fraxinus' infirmary. It wasn't easy
catching you out of the sky.
**[16:11] ---**
Oh, yeah... And Mukuro?!
What about Mukuro?!
**[16:15] ---**
We don't know. During the fall,
you got separated.
**[16:20] ---**
For real?! Then--!
**[16:22] ---**
Muku is right here.
**[16:25] ---**
--Mukuro?!
--Mukuro?!
**[16:27] ---**
What a mean guy, making Muku wait.
**[16:30] ---**
But it's fine. I'm in a good mood now.
**[16:34] ---**
Eh? Uh, huh?
**[16:36] ---**
Such a sourpuss.
**[16:40] ---**
Is this because your heart opened up?
**[16:43] ---**
Convinced. And her emotions have returned.
**[16:47] ---**
E-Even if that's true...
Mukuro, you're so different now.
**[16:54] ---**
Is it odd for Muku's heart to be touched
**[16:58] ---**
by the one who worked hard to open it?
**[17:03] ---**
The moment it was unlocked,
**[17:06] ---**
I felt grateful for
everything you've done.
**[17:11] ---**
Though, the reason I'm fond of you is...
**[17:16] ---**
Let's see...
**[17:18] ---**
Just because?
**[17:20] ---**
Hey, hey...
**[17:22] ---**
Yes, just because. I feel like
you and Muku are close.
**[17:29] ---**
Close?
**[17:30] ---**
Anyway, since it seems
you haven't recovered yet,
**[17:35] ---**
I shall return tomorrow.
**[17:39] ---**
I'll see you tomorrow, Mister.
**[17:44] ---**
Didn't see that coming! That was Mukuchin?
**[17:48] ---**
Her personality's nothing like I heard!
**[17:51] ---**
Surprise. I had imagined
a very rude Spirit.
**[17:56] ---**
But what a cutie. Her body is tiny,
but she's big where it counts.
**[18:04] ---**
Darling is such a perv!
**[18:08] ---**
She said she'll come tomorrow.
What then, Shido?
**[18:13] ---**
Uh, well...
**[18:14] ---**
Enough, enough! We'll discuss that later.
Shido's still healing up.
**[18:21] ---**
The ship has some new facilities.
Why don't you go soothe your body?
**[18:27] ---**
"New facilities"?
**[18:31] ---**
"Bath"
"Fraxinus"
**[18:36] ---**
A bath imbued with magic, huh?
It's true--I do feel great!
**[18:44] ---**
But what was that dream all about?
That little girl was...
**[18:56] ---**
Washing yourself while injured
won't be easy. I'll help, Shido.
**[19:01] ---**
Whoa, whoa! I'll be fine!
**[19:04] ---**
Leave it to me.
I'll lick--wash you clean.
**[19:09] ---**
You just said, "lick"!
**[19:13] ---**
Darling! I came to wash your back!
**[19:18] ---**
Shido, feeling better?! I'm here to help!
**[19:22] ---**
Liking the healing bath?!
**[19:24] ---**
Reminisce. When it comes to bathing
together, you want the Yamai Sisters.
**[19:30] ---**
Guys! Shido came here to heal,
so let's not forget that!
**[19:36] ---**
Clearly, all of us didn't need to come.
**[19:41] ---**
But bathing with everyone will be fun!
**[19:45] ---**
I know! How about you and Yoshino
wash each other's backs?
**[19:50] ---**
Y-You wouldn't mind?
**[19:53] ---**
Whew! All these cuties
make for such a nice view!
**[20:04] ---**
Ike!
**[20:05] ---**
We may have shook hands a bit too hard.
**[20:08] ---**
I guess Elliot was incredibly
glad to see me.
**[20:13] ---**
Then, it's true?
You attacked Ratatoskr's base?
**[20:19] ---**
Yeah. But unfortunately,
I let Elliot slip away.
**[20:24] ---**
And your little sister, too.
**[20:28] ---**
Still, with Realizers,
I'll be on my feet tomorrow.
**[20:33] ---**
You didn't fare so well, either.
**[20:36] ---**
Due to my shortcomings. I deserve
whatever punishment comes my way.
**[20:43] ---**
But, Ike, you owe me an explanation.
**[20:47] ---**
Why didn't you tell me about Elliot?
**[20:50] ---**
If I had brought you, wouldn't you have
killed Elliot without question?
**[21:03] ---**
Ready, Shido?
**[21:05] ---**
Yeah, but where am I meeting Mukuro?
Am I going back to space?
**[21:11] ---**
That's the big question. She said
she'd come back, so we think she will...
**[21:19] ---**
It's time, Mister.
**[21:23] ---**
Shido!
**[21:36] ---**
Huh?
**[21:37] ---**
We're here on the surface,
just like you wanted!
**[21:42] ---**
You said there're lots of
fun things to do here!
**[21:47] ---**
So, let's get going, Mister!
**[21:51] ---**
"Episode 06:
'An Opened Heart.'"
**[23:26] ---**
Shido has opened Mukuro's heart.
**[23:28] ---**
As a new battle begins,
a new Origami and Tohka awake.
**[23:33] ---**
Next time: "Locked Memories."
**[23:36] ---**
"Episode 07: 'Locked Memories.'"
**[23:36] ---**
Be tasty! Moé Moé Kyun!

**[00:05] ---**
You really can see the stars tonight.
**[00:09] ---**
Did you know that every star has a name?
**[00:16] ---**
That bright one is Sirius.
**[00:19] ---**
Those three lined up are Orion's Belt.
**[00:25] ---**
Brr!
**[00:28] ---**
Aren't you cold?
Come snuggle up.
**[00:34] ---**
And over there--that little cluster
of stars is Pleiades.
**[00:39] ---**
Oh, and that one--
**[00:41] ---**
Girls! Dinner's almost ready!
**[00:46] ---**
--Coming!
--Coming!
**[02:28] ---**
Shido... Shido? Shido, do you copy?
**[02:33] ---**
Kotori? Yeah, I'm good.
**[02:37] ---**
Mukuro's happiness is rising.
**[02:39] ---**
If this keeps up, it'll soon be
high enough to seal her powers.
**[02:45] ---**
Shido, we've got your back,
so just proceed with the date.
**[02:51] ---**
--Got it.
--What have you been mumbling about?
**[02:55] ---**
Eh? S-Sorry!
**[02:57] ---**
Say...
**[02:59] ---**
...what did you have in mind
that would make Muku happy?
**[03:05] ---**
Um... Well, there're lots of things.
**[03:09] ---**
Then show me all of them.
Let's get going.
**[03:14] ---**
Uh... H-Hold up!
Your hair's getting dirty.
**[03:19] ---**
We've gotta do something about how
long it is. Why not cut it and--?
**[03:25] ---**
Nay!
**[03:26] ---**
I refuse to have it cut,
even if it's you asking.
**[03:33] ---**
Sorry. I can't remember why,
but I'm against it.
**[03:38] ---**
I-I see. Sorry to ask that.
**[03:43] ---**
Still, we can't leave it like that.
Are you against tying it up?
**[03:49] ---**
No, just cutting it.
What should we do?
**[03:54] ---**
Um... Let's see...
**[03:58] ---**
We're getting some choices.
***SIGN*** "1. Let a pro do her hair." "2. Have Shido tie it up." "3. Walk behind Mukuro, carrying it like a wedding dress train and nuzzling it tenderly."
**[04:02] ---**
Your choices, everyone!
***SIGN*** "1. Let a pro do her hair." "2. Have Shido tie it up." "3. Walk behind Mukuro, carrying it like a wedding dress train and nuzzling it tenderly."
**[04:07] ---**
"Walk behind Mukuro,
carrying it like a wedding dress train
**[04:12] ---**
and nuzzling it tenderly..."
**[04:16] ---**
Who picked that?
**[04:17] ---**
Me! I did!
**[04:20] ---**
MARIA, you come up
with the choices, right?
**[04:24] ---**
Technically, I don't come up with them.
**[04:28] ---**
They're generated based on happiness level
and the date's progression.
**[04:33] ---**
I've always wondered: Is there always
a risky choice on purpose?
**[04:39] ---**
Yes. There's typically a favorite,
a contender, and a dark horse.
**[04:45] ---**
"A dark horse..."
**[04:47] ---**
Nobody's using MARIA's computing power
to predict horse racing, right?
**[04:55] ---**
Do "two." Just tie it up for her.
**[05:00] ---**
Wanna come to my house?
We've got combs and hair clips.
**[05:07] ---**
Mm. That sounds fun.
My hair is in your hands.
**[05:12] ---**
Ma'am, it's an honor.
**[05:17] ---**
You're good at this, Mister.
**[05:21] ---**
Well, Kotori always makes me
help with her hair.
**[05:25] ---**
Who is Kotori?
**[05:28] ---**
The girl with me yesterday.
She's my sister.
**[05:36] ---**
We should change your clothes.
You can borrow hers.
**[05:41] ---**
Mister, this won't work.
It's way too small.
**[05:48] ---**
No, not like that. Can't you
reproduce it with Spirit power?
**[05:55] ---**
Oh, that's what you meant!
**[06:03] ---**
Mm. That's more like it.
**[06:06] ---**
Eh? Why didn't you start with that?
Why'd you have her wear it, huh?
**[06:14] ---**
Well, shall we go, Mukuro?
**[06:17] ---**
Yeah, let's.
**[06:34] ---**
You were right--
today was a fun day.
**[06:39] ---**
You're really fond of that.
**[06:42] ---**
To think you'd do so much for me...
**[06:45] ---**
Could it be that you love Muku?
**[06:50] ---**
Yeah. I do, and I wanna protect you.
**[06:54] ---**
And I'm fond of you, too!
I love you, Shido.
**[07:01] ---**
But... don't you know?
**[07:04] ---**
By vowing yourself to Muku,
**[07:05] ---**
you vow to stay away
from those other girls.
**[07:11] ---**
Huh?
**[07:12] ---**
U-Uh, I can't make a promise like that
'cuz I wanna save all the Spirits.
**[07:19] ---**
Hmm?
**[07:20] ---**
I love the other Spirits I've sealed
as much as I love you.
**[07:25] ---**
So, I hope you can
get along with them, too.
**[07:32] ---**
You're too kind.
Okay, leave it to Muku.
**[07:37] ---**
Huh? What?
**[07:39] ---**
Well then, farewell for tonight.
**[07:43] ---**
Let's meet again soon, Mister.
**[07:48] ---**
Mukuro!
**[07:53] ---**
What's she thinking?
**[08:08] ---**
Morning, Kotori.
**[08:11] ---**
Good mor... ning...
**[08:17] ---**
Wh-What?!
**[08:19] ---**
Who are you?!
Why are you in my house?!
**[08:22] ---**
Huh? Uh, what are you
talking about, Kot--?
**[08:26] ---**
Get lost or I'll call the police!
**[08:31] ---**
Get outta here!
**[08:35] ---**
Who was that?!
**[08:40] ---**
The things people do sleepwalking...
**[08:45] ---**
Oh well. Guess I'll head to school.
**[08:51] ---**
Morning.
**[08:55] ---**
Hmm? Why the weird face, Tonomachi?
**[08:59] ---**
Uh... Sorry, who are you again?
A transfer student?
**[09:05] ---**
--Huh?
--Oh!
**[09:06] ---**
You must've been at karaoke!
**[09:09] ---**
Sorry! There were so many people,
I can't remember everyone.
**[09:14] ---**
What are you talking about, Tonomachi?
It's me, Shido Itsuka!
**[09:19] ---**
Shido... Itsuka? You guys know him?
**[09:24] ---**
Yamabuki, Hazakura, Fujibakama!
**[09:27] ---**
--Huh?!
--Huh?!
**[09:28] ---**
D-Don't you guys know me?
**[09:31] ---**
Uh... What?
**[09:33] ---**
Ugh, is he hitting on us? So basic.
**[09:36] ---**
That's so lame.
**[09:38] ---**
They don't... know me?
**[09:41] ---**
Ah! Good morning, guys!
**[09:44] ---**
Tohka! Origami!
**[09:45] ---**
Huh? What's the matter?
**[09:48] ---**
The class is acting weird!
Was Kotori not sleepwalking?
**[09:53] ---**
Hmm? I'm not following you.
**[09:56] ---**
Who are you anyway?
**[10:00] ---**
C'mon, don't say that!
Lemme see your homework!
**[10:04] ---**
Negative. Do it yourself.
**[10:06] ---**
Gimme a break!
**[10:07] ---**
Kaguya! Yuzuru!
**[10:09] ---**
Mm?
**[10:10] ---**
You know me, right?!
**[10:12] ---**
Huh? Should I?
**[10:13] ---**
Baffled. Which class are you from?
**[10:21] ---**
Yeah, I'm coming. Delivery guy?
**[10:25] ---**
Huh? What? Are you a fan of mine?
**[10:35] ---**
Hello, Miku?
**[10:38] ---**
Random guys are calling me now!
**[10:46] ---**
Brr! Let's get shopping over with.
**[10:49] ---**
Yeah, let's go.
**[10:51] ---**
Yoshino! Natsumi! And Yoshinon!
**[10:55] ---**
Wh-What is it?
**[10:57] ---**
Whoa! Yikes...
**[11:02] ---**
Hey! You guys know me, right?
**[11:05] ---**
U-Um... Sorry, what's your name again?
**[11:10] ---**
I-I'm clueless.
**[11:14] ---**
Sorry, pal.
**[11:18] ---**
Dammit! What the hell's going on?!
Doesn't anyone know me?
**[11:24] ---**
Who's left? Reine, Kurumi,
the Ratatoskr crew, and...
**[11:31] ---**
Mukuro...! If I'm right about this...
**[11:36] ---**
Haniel!
**[11:39] ---**
Kaleidoscope!
**[11:43] ---**
If this is Mukuro's doing,
I can turn everything back to normal!
**[11:55] ---**
Segva.
**[12:06] ---**
Mukuro!
**[12:07] ---**
I thought you might
figure it out. Well done.
**[12:11] ---**
Did you make everyone forget me?
**[12:14] ---**
Yup! I locked their memories with Michael.
**[12:18] ---**
Neat, right? This way,
we can be all alone!
**[12:23] ---**
You can cherish Muku with all your heart.
**[12:27] ---**
Say, Mister...
**[12:30] ---**
You love Muku, don't you?
**[12:45] ---**
Yesterday, I met a strange guy at school.
**[12:49] ---**
He knew me and Origami.
**[12:52] ---**
Speaking of which,
I met a weirdo, too.
**[12:56] ---**
When I woke up, there was
a stranger in the kitchen.
**[13:00] ---**
Me, too. Some guy I don't know
was calling me yesterday.
***SIGN*** "Call History" "Darling" "Darling" "Darling"
**[13:06] ---**
I immediately hung up,
**[13:08] ---**
but he's in my call history! See?!
***SIGN*** "Darling" "Darling" "Darling"
**[13:11] ---**
Huh? "Darling"?!
**[13:12] ---**
I don't remember saving it! It's freaky!
**[13:16] ---**
Hey, Yuzuru. Could it be that guy?
**[13:20] ---**
Recollect. We met him, too.
**[13:23] ---**
Now that you mention it,
I chased away a weird fan at my place.
**[13:28] ---**
Us, too.
**[13:29] ---**
Yeah. He looked really
worried about something.
**[13:38] ---**
What's up, Origami?
**[13:40] ---**
My head started hurting.
**[13:43] ---**
You okay? Need to go home?
**[13:46] ---**
Origami! Hold on,
I'll call Ratatoskr's medical team.
**[13:54] ---**
No, it's all right.
I'm sorry to worry you.
**[13:59] ---**
Huh? O-Origami?
**[14:02] ---**
Yes? What is it?
**[14:04] ---**
Um, you're Origami, right?
**[14:07] ---**
I am, but I'm a different me than usual,
so it may surprise you.
**[14:15] ---**
More importantly,
is what you're saying true?
**[14:19] ---**
Nobody remembers him?
**[14:22] ---**
"Him"?
**[14:23] ---**
Who? Do you know, Yuzuru?
**[14:26] ---**
Negative. I have no idea.
**[14:30] ---**
I see. This must be Mukuro's doing.
In which case, what to do...?
**[14:37] ---**
H-Hold up. You're not making sense.
Who's Mukuro? And who's "Him"?
**[14:43] ---**
You guys should know. After all,
it was he, Shido Itsuka, who saved us.
**[14:50] ---**
Huh? Shido Itsuka?
The same last name as me?
**[14:59] ---**
Sh-Shido...
**[15:01] ---**
Tohka!
**[15:02] ---**
What's wrong? Now you, too?!
**[15:13] ---**
So much fun! Are you having fun?
**[15:17] ---**
Yeah. I am, Mukuro.
**[15:19] ---**
Good! Good! Do you love Muku?
**[15:23] ---**
Of course, I love you.
**[15:26] ---**
Muku, too! This is bliss!
**[15:30] ---**
Loving and being loved by someone
is such a wonderful thing!
**[15:36] ---**
Hey, Mukuro.
**[15:38] ---**
Hmm? What is it, Mister?
**[15:41] ---**
You said we were "close."
What did you mean by that?
**[15:47] ---**
That's just how it feels.
But if I had to say...
**[15:53] ---**
After you held Muku and we fell,
I saw a strange dream.
**[15:58] ---**
"Dream"?
**[15:59] ---**
A dream about a lonely,
young girl finding a family.
**[16:05] ---**
When Muku woke up,
Muku wanted to see you for some reason.
**[16:12] ---**
That dream is--
**[16:13] ---**
Itsuka!
**[16:21] ---**
I finally found you!
**[16:23] ---**
Huh? Origami?
**[16:25] ---**
Long time no see, Itsuka.
**[16:28] ---**
Are you this world's Origami?!
After Kurumi and I changed history?!
**[16:34] ---**
Yup! Though it's weird saying,
"Long time no see"
**[16:37] ---**
considering the other me
has been with you.
**[16:41] ---**
Origami! You remember who I am?!
**[16:45] ---**
Of course! But the other me doesn't
since her memories were locked.
**[16:50] ---**
I'm confused, but oh well.
I'll just lock your memories again.
**[16:57] ---**
Michael.
**[16:59] ---**
Mukuro, don't!
**[17:01] ---**
No! If you manifest your Angel,
they'll find you!
**[17:06] ---**
"Find you"? Who will?
**[17:11] ---**
There you are.
**[17:13] ---**
Tohka!
**[17:14] ---**
There's some extras here, too.
**[17:17] ---**
Hmph. No matter.
I'll turn you all into ashes.
**[17:22] ---**
Tohka! You're inverted?!
**[17:27] ---**
--Nehemoth!
--Begone.
**[17:31] ---**
Lataib.
**[17:38] ---**
How dare you defy my attack.
What's the matter with you?
**[17:44] ---**
That's my line. Your memories
should be locked by Michael.
**[17:49] ---**
If you intend to get in Muku's way,
I won't hold back!
**[17:57] ---**
Hold on!
**[17:59] ---**
--What?
--You dare to interfere?
**[18:02] ---**
U-Um... Please calm down and listen,
Mukuro... Tohka...
**[18:09] ---**
--Hmm?
--Tohka? Referring to me?
**[18:12] ---**
Yes! Mukuro loves Itsuka,
**[18:17] ---**
which is why she's upset
that you came for him.
**[18:21] ---**
Well, that's the gist of it.
**[18:24] ---**
But the thing is,
Itsuka hates violence.
**[18:30] ---**
Surely, there's a better way
to win Itsuka's love.
**[18:36] ---**
A-And Tohka...
**[18:38] ---**
What is your goal?
It's not to fight Mukuro, right?
**[18:44] ---**
As if goals matter.
**[18:46] ---**
I will not rest until I purge
the shame caused by this man.
**[18:52] ---**
As in, when you manifested
at DEM's base, right?
**[18:59] ---**
Well, even if you beat Itsuka using force,
can you truly say you beat him?
**[19:07] ---**
Use not force, but heart.
**[19:11] ---**
Unless you conquer his heart,
can it be true victory?
**[19:15] ---**
H-Hey, Origami?
**[19:18] ---**
What must I do to win his love?
**[19:22] ---**
What must I do to humiliate this man?
**[19:26] ---**
There is a way to do both
and determine a victor:
**[19:34] ---**
Go on a date, and the one
who steals Itsuka's lips wins!
**[19:38] ---**
Eh?!
**[19:45] ---**
Welcome home, Master!
**[19:50] ---**
Why are we doing this?
**[19:52] ---**
'Cuz it's best to be friends
before you kiss someone.
**[19:56] ---**
Not that! Why has Tohka inverted?
And why--? Whoa!
**[20:02] ---**
What are you whispering about?
Eat my damn strawberry already!
**[20:08] ---**
Itsuka!
**[20:09] ---**
What's your problem?
**[20:11] ---**
Ladies! Let's not cause a scene!
**[20:14] ---**
There are other masters here, so behave!
**[20:18] ---**
--Who the hell are you?
--What a weird outfit.
**[20:25] ---**
If you're too rowdy,
you'll trouble Master!
**[20:30] ---**
Hmm. What should we do?
**[20:32] ---**
I'll teach you magic words
to make Master hungry for cake!
**[20:39] ---**
Be tasty! Moe Moe Kyun!
**[20:48] ---**
There! Now Master can't wait
to eat cake! Right, Master?!
**[20:53] ---**
Huh? What?
**[20:55] ---**
He... can't... wait... to... eat... cake.
**[20:58] ---**
R-Right! Shido *loves* cakes!
**[21:05] ---**
Good! Now then, enjoy!
**[21:08] ---**
I see... I learned something new.
**[21:15] ---**
Be tasty! Moe Moe Kyun!
**[21:24] ---**
Now, feast like a dog!
**[21:30] ---**
What a vulgar woman.
**[21:41] ---**
Kissing is reserved for
establishing a relationship!
**[21:45] ---**
What... doing? Stay out... way!
***SIGN*** "Episode 07: 'Locked Memories.'"

Mukuro! Tohka!
**[23:26] ---**
A world crisis. Humanity is in danger.

Can Shido save the world and Mukuro
against this planetary threat?

**[00:04] ---**
Your hair's so pretty, Mukuro.
**[00:10] ---**
There! All done!
**[00:15] ---**
Well? I've sure gotten good at this.
**[00:27] ---**
--And over here is--
--Asahi!
**[00:30] ---**
Look who it is!
**[00:32] ---**
Oh, wow! What brings you here?
**[00:38] ---**
They're friends from my school.
What a surprise.
**[00:42] ---**
--Hello.
--Nice to meet'cha.
**[00:49] ---**
You can see our school!
**[00:51] ---**
It looks so tiny from here.
**[00:53] ---**
Think we can see anyone
with the telescope?
**[02:40] ---**
We can't locate Tohka and Origami?
**[02:43] ---**
Right. They're not within east Tengu.
**[02:46] ---**
And we can't use GPS
since they left their phones.
**[02:50] ---**
Have the other Spirits
had any luck searching?
**[02:54] ---**
Not thus far.
**[02:57] ---**
What do you think, Reine?
**[02:59] ---**
Why did Tohka and Origami
act odd suddenly?
**[03:03] ---**
Regardless of why,
**[03:05] ---**
it's evident that Tohka
has become an Inverse Spirit.
**[03:10] ---**
As far as Origami, I think a second
personality has come forward.
**[03:17] ---**
Yeah. This world's history was rewritten.
**[03:22] ---**
Inside Origami are two personalities:
**[03:25] ---**
The Origami of the previous world and
the Origami of the world that changed.
**[03:31] ---**
But when I try to think about it,
my thoughts get all jumbled.
**[03:36] ---**
Why is that happening?
And who was it that changed the world?
**[03:45] ---**
Does it all revolve around Shido Itsuka?
**[03:49] ---**
Kotori, I've located their Spirit waves.
**[03:53] ---**
Dispatch a camera!
**[03:55] ---**
Roger.
**[03:56] ---**
I'm also detecting Spirit waves
from the two people they're with.
**[04:02] ---**
Two people?
**[04:03] ---**
One boy and one girl.
Though, the boy's waves appear abnormal.
**[04:10] ---**
What the hell is going on?
**[04:19] ---**
Seriously. What the hell is going on?
**[04:27] ---**
They kicked us out quick,
not that I'm surprised.
**[04:32] ---**
The fight's not over yet.
Take us to the next battlefield.
**[04:36] ---**
U-Um... Let's see...
**[04:39] ---**
Oh! There! Tengu Tower!
**[04:45] ---**
That's...
**[04:49] ---**
Oh? The view seems different
when you're not flying.
**[04:54] ---**
There's a legend that couples
who kiss up here live happily ever after.
**[05:00] ---**
I think it's fitting
for your next "battle."
**[05:05] ---**
Mukuro? What's wrong?
**[05:08] ---**
I don't know, but being here
gives me a bad feeling.
**[05:13] ---**
A bad feeling?
**[05:16] ---**
Mukuro, have you been here before?
**[05:26] ---**
Are you okay, Mukuro?
**[05:29] ---**
Mm.
**[05:33] ---**
I wonder what's up with Mukuro?
**[05:37] ---**
Hey, Tohka. What exactly are you?
**[05:41] ---**
What's an Inverse?
Actually, what are Spirits?
**[05:46] ---**
I resent being called "Inverse."
**[05:48] ---**
After all, it's the original
form of Spirits.
**[05:53] ---**
Huh? Meaning?
**[05:55] ---**
When the Spirit of Origin made Sephirah,
**[05:58] ---**
they were what you call "Inverse."
**[06:03] ---**
They were "refined" to be
compatible with humans.
**[06:07] ---**
H-Hold up! The Spirit of Origin?
To be compatible with humans?!
**[06:13] ---**
What do you mean by that?
**[06:16] ---**
Don't be mistaken, human.
**[06:18] ---**
I didn't answer to appease you,
but because I felt like it.
**[06:26] ---**
So weak. Maybe I'll just
steal a kiss by force.
**[06:31] ---**
You bitch!
**[06:38] ---**
Mukuro!
**[06:39] ---**
You dare try to steal him from Muku?!
Steal the one Muku loves?!
**[06:46] ---**
You think I care, mongrel?!
**[06:57] ---**
Mukuro!
**[07:03] ---**
How dare you cut Muku's hair!
**[07:06] ---**
Mister says that he likes it!
**[07:09] ---**
Mukuro! Stop!
**[07:16] ---**
Michael. Siffleur.
**[07:28] ---**
Oh? Very well.
**[07:32] ---**
Fighting this way is more my style.
**[07:35] ---**
Two huge Spirit waves!
**[07:37] ---**
One is Category E: Inverse!
**[07:41] ---**
Seal... We've gotta seal 'em somehow.
**[07:45] ---**
But how? How have we
sealed Spirits up until now?
**[07:58] ---**
Stop it, you two!
**[08:01] ---**
Kotori, it's Tobiichi.
**[08:03] ---**
Origami? What's going on?
Who are those Spirits?
**[08:07] ---**
I'll explain later. Can you slow them down
using Fraxinus' territory?
**[08:13] ---**
To a certain extent...
**[08:15] ---**
I'll handle the rest!
**[08:18] ---**
A-Are you nuts? Who are you anyway?
**[08:22] ---**
I know a way to stop them.
Can you trust me and help out?
**[08:32] ---**
Deploy Territory and Yggdrafolium!
Let's minimize collateral damage.
**[08:39] ---**
Why is it? Why do I feel like
we've done this countless times?
**[08:45] ---**
Soon, Fraxinus will hinder
their movements.
**[08:49] ---**
But I can't face both of them at once.
**[08:53] ---**
Origami, can you help?
**[08:56] ---**
Of course. If I let you go alone,
I'd get yelled at by the other me.
**[09:05] ---**
ID: Origami Tobiichi. Deploy Brunhild.
**[09:23] ---**
Falling for me, Itsuka?
**[09:29] ---**
Let's go, Origami!
**[09:31] ---**
Mm, Itsuka!
**[09:33] ---**
Raphael!
**[09:36] ---**
Cretin!
**[09:53] ---**
What?
**[09:55] ---**
Michael! Lataib!
**[10:08] ---**
Michael! Helles!
**[10:22] ---**
You can deconstruct Spirit armor
with that key?
**[10:26] ---**
I see. That's your play, huh?
**[10:31] ---**
I'll kill you! I'll kill everyone
who tries to steal him from Muku!
**[10:38] ---**
Wait, you two!
**[10:39] ---**
Please, calm down!
**[10:41] ---**
Getting in my way?!
**[10:46] ---**
Then I hope you're ready to entertain me!
**[10:52] ---**
Itsuka, stop Mukuro!
**[10:57] ---**
Kill! Kill! Kill all who try to steal him!
Muku hates being alone!
**[11:03] ---**
Mukuro!
**[11:07] ---**
Mister...
**[11:08] ---**
Please, stop this!
**[11:10] ---**
I don't want Tohka to be gone
or the others to forget me!
**[11:16] ---**
Everyone's a precious friend of mine!
**[11:21] ---**
--How...?
--Eh?
**[11:23] ---**
How can you say something like that?
**[11:26] ---**
Don't you love Muku?
**[11:29] ---**
Is Muku's love not enough for you?!
**[11:33] ---**
I hate being alone!
I won't let anyone take you!
**[11:38] ---**
Mukuro... What makes you say that?
**[11:42] ---**
There they are!
**[11:49] ---**
Tohka! Origami!
**[11:51] ---**
Why are they fighting?!
**[11:53] ---**
Eek! That's trouble!
**[11:56] ---**
Them, too?
**[11:58] ---**
Everyone wants to steal him
away from Muku! Unforgivable!
**[12:05] ---**
Michael! Segva!
**[12:08] ---**
Mukuro! What are you doing?!
**[12:11] ---**
Using Segva on the planet.
Eventually, it will stop spinning.
**[12:17] ---**
Then, none can interfere.
**[12:19] ---**
You and Muku can
stay in space together forever.
**[12:24] ---**
But first, I've gotta defeat her!
**[12:28] ---**
Mukuro!
**[12:32] ---**
--Guys!
--Huh? What?
**[12:35] ---**
You're that guy...!
**[12:36] ---**
Please, help me out! Mukuro--
the Spirit used her key on the planet!
**[12:43] ---**
At this rate, it'll stop spinning!
**[12:45] ---**
I need your power--the power of Spirits!
**[12:50] ---**
Okay. Fine by me.
**[12:53] ---**
Y-Yoshino? Shouldn't we think about it?
**[12:56] ---**
He doesn't seem like a bad person.
**[12:59] ---**
Also, I don't know how to explain it,
**[13:03] ---**
but I feel like I should help him.
**[13:08] ---**
Sure, why not? He asked nicely, after all.
**[13:12] ---**
Agreement. I don't know why,
but I feel like we've done this before.
**[13:19] ---**
Well, if you say so...
**[13:21] ---**
Why not? This sorta thing pumps me up!
**[13:26] ---**
Guys!
**[13:27] ---**
So, what should we do?
**[13:30] ---**
Well...
**[13:31] ---**
Guys, it's me. I'm communicating
through Territory.
**[13:35] ---**
--Kotori!
--Kotori!
**[13:36] ---**
Like he said, Spirit power
has encroached the ground.
**[13:41] ---**
We'll plunge Yggdrafolium into six areas.
**[13:44] ---**
Use those as focal points
to send your Spirit power.
**[13:49] ---**
For a time, we'll be able
to stop the spread.
**[13:53] ---**
Can we trust you to handle this,
Shido Itsuka?
**[13:57] ---**
Yeah. Leave it to me.
**[13:59] ---**
Where will you go?
**[14:02] ---**
To the girl who needs my hand.
**[14:14] ---**
Tohka, please! Let's stop fighting!
**[14:16] ---**
You brought the fight to me!
I'm just making the most of it!
**[14:22] ---**
Metatron!
**[14:32] ---**
This time, I'll hit her body, not armor.
**[14:36] ---**
Even you won't survive
Michael's molecular destruction!
**[14:40] ---**
Michael! Helles!
**[14:42] ---**
Don't, Mukuro!
**[14:59] ---**
Here. This is for you.
**[15:03] ---**
With this, your hopes will come true.
**[15:12] ---**
Explain yourself!
**[15:13] ---**
You did this, didn't you?!
**[15:15] ---**
Nobody knew who I was at school today!
Not even my friends or the teacher!
**[15:21] ---**
What are you?! A freak?! A monster?!
**[15:41] ---**
Mukuro, you're...!
**[15:44] ---**
Gabriel! Haniel!
**[15:50] ---**
Mu... kuro...
**[15:53] ---**
No, Mister! I... I wasn't
trying to kill you!
**[16:00] ---**
No! Don't leave Muku all alone again!
**[16:06] ---**
Inversion?!
**[16:08] ---**
Don't! Stop, Mukuro!
**[16:16] ---**
Mukuro! Mukuro! Come back!
**[16:20] ---**
Mukuro, you're me! I was alone, too!
**[16:27] ---**
I learned the warmth of family when
the Itsuka's took me in, but...
**[16:33] ---**
I was always afraid that
I'd be abandoned--
**[16:37] ---**
that the people I loved
would move on and abandon me.
**[16:43] ---**
I was always terrified to think
my happiness might suddenly disappear.
**[16:50] ---**
Mukuro, you're scared, right?
So scared that it hurts.
**[16:55] ---**
Just like I was.
**[17:00] ---**
But listen, Mukuro.
There's nothing to worry about.
**[17:05] ---**
You're connected, no matter how
far away you are. That's what family is.
**[17:14] ---**
The Itsukas--my dad, mom,
and Kotori taught me that.
**[17:20] ---**
But I... I don't have...
**[17:24] ---**
I'll be your family!
**[17:27] ---**
So, you don't have to worry anymore.
I'll never forget you, no matter what.
**[17:34] ---**
No matter what happens,
I'll never hate you.
**[17:38] ---**
No, that's not enough.
You have to promise, too.
**[17:44] ---**
A one-sided love won't work.
After all, we're family.
**[17:50] ---**
Mister, I...
**[17:54] ---**
Mukuro...
**[18:19] ---**
Hmph. What a sad sight.
**[18:21] ---**
Tohka...
**[18:23] ---**
Itsuka!
**[18:27] ---**
Itsuka?
**[18:28] ---**
Don't interfere! Only I can
make Tohka normal again!
**[18:41] ---**
You turned that fighter into a baby.
**[18:47] ---**
I've lost interest.
**[19:08] ---**
Don't make me...
**[19:10] ---**
Don't make Tohka sad.
**[19:14] ---**
T-Tohka!
**[19:17] ---**
Itsuka! Let's get you
to Fraxinus' infirmary!
**[19:21] ---**
I'm fine 'cuz I've got Spirit power.
But Tohka and Mukuro--!
**[19:30] ---**
Don't let your guard down, Mister.
Tohka was able to kiss you.
**[19:36] ---**
Eh?
**[19:36] ---**
It's okay, I don't mind.
**[19:39] ---**
No matter what you do,
Muku won't worry anymore.
**[19:43] ---**
After all, we're family!
**[19:46] ---**
Mukuro...
**[19:47] ---**
Though...
**[19:51] ---**
Some level of intimacy is expected!
'Cuz we're family!
**[19:56] ---**
Um...
**[19:58] ---**
Family is... what to you?
**[20:05] ---**
I used to look at stars
with my sister like this.
**[20:10] ---**
Before Muku was a Spirit.
**[20:13] ---**
Why didn't I see it?
**[20:16] ---**
Why did Muku worry when Sis, Mommy,
and Daddy loved me so much?
**[20:25] ---**
It's natural. Nobody wants to be alone.
**[20:29] ---**
No one wants to lose
the place they belong.
**[20:34] ---**
Mister... You're the same as Muku.
**[20:40] ---**
Maybe that's why Muku
feels at ease around you.
**[20:47] ---**
You think I should cut my hair?
**[20:50] ---**
Huh?
**[20:51] ---**
Muku might wanna change things up.
**[20:55] ---**
You sure, Mukuro?
**[20:57] ---**
You'll cut it for Muku, won't you?
**[21:01] ---**
Other than family,
no one touches Muku's hair.
**[21:08] ---**
Yeah, you've got it.
**[22:47] ---**
Hurry or we'll be late!
**[22:49] ---**
If Origami stopped trying to climb
into Shido's coat, we wouldn't be!
**[22:55] ---**
My bad. I couldn't subdue
my animal instincts.
**[23:01] ---**
Morning!
**[23:08] ---**
How do you do, Shido? Long time no see.
**[23:13] ---**
Kurumi!
**[23:15] ---**
Starting today, I've returned to school.
**[23:19] ---**
I hope we can get along.
**[23:22] ---**
"Episode 08:
'Key and Sword.'"
**[23:26] ---**
The worst Spirit has returned.
**[23:28] ---**
Her goal? To take Shido's life
and Spirit power.
**[23:33] ---**
Next time:
"Nightmare's Seduction."
**[23:35] ---**
What awaits at the end
of this fierce battle?!
**[23:35] ---**
"Episode 09: 'Nightmare's Seduction.'"

**[00:09] ---**
You're as popular as ever, Shido.
**[00:16] ---**
There's no need to worry.
**[00:19] ---**
I don't intend to stir up
trouble in a place like this.
**[00:25] ---**
Why should we believe you?
**[00:28] ---**
Because if I felt like it
and wanted to resort to violence,
**[00:34] ---**
I'd manifest my Angel this very moment.
**[00:38] ---**
Taking students hostage
would be as simple as that.
**[00:44] ---**
The fact that I haven't done so
is proof I'm not lying.
**[02:26] ---**
"February 9th"
**[02:28] ---**
You're not here to enjoy
school life, are you?
**[02:33] ---**
But believe me, I'd like that.
**[02:36] ---**
If so, we'll throw you a welcome party.
**[02:40] ---**
After your power is sealed, though.
**[02:43] ---**
Sure, that's fine by me.
**[02:47] ---**
Eh?
**[02:48] ---**
I'm okay with entrusting
my Spirit power to you, however...
**[02:57] ---**
There's just one condition.
**[03:01] ---**
And that would be...?
**[03:06] ---**
Let's talk about it after school.
There're too many people around.
**[03:17] ---**
You know why I summoned you:
**[03:19] ---**
Zodiac has fallen into Ratatoskr's hands.
**[03:26] ---**
Now, Ratatoskr has ten spirits
under its control.
**[03:32] ---**
I'm ashamed of myself.
**[03:35] ---**
I'm not blaming anybody.
**[03:39] ---**
In fact, this situation is everything
I could've hoped for.
**[03:49] ---**
Though Sister limits my information,
**[03:52] ---**
I can still use Beelzebub to hit
Ratatoskr where it hurts.
**[03:58] ---**
It's about time we made it happen:
**[04:01] ---**
To use Shido Itsuka as the key
to make the Spirits invert.
**[04:07] ---**
Leave it to me.
**[04:09] ---**
This time, I'll produce results.
**[04:12] ---**
I hope so.
**[04:14] ---**
Still, I've prepared
a helper to lend a hand.
**[04:19] ---**
Helper?
**[04:21] ---**
You mean, a Wizard?
**[04:33] ---**
Let me introduce you Nibeelcole,
the daughters of my Demon King!
**[04:41] ---**
Start the operation at once.
**[04:45] ---**
I expect Shido Itsuka's head
by the end of the day.
**[04:52] ---**
Well, I'll get going.
**[04:54] ---**
Are you sure, Shido?
Wouldn't it be safer if we came?
**[05:00] ---**
Tohka's right. It's dangerous.
**[05:03] ---**
If you plan to face a Spirit who's cloaked
in shadow, you need us!
**[05:09] ---**
Agreement. We'll come along.
**[05:13] ---**
Thanks, but I'll be fine.
**[05:17] ---**
It's true that Kurumi is dangerous,
but she won't go back on her word.
**[05:23] ---**
Besides, if I can't even talk
to Kurumi one-on-one,
**[05:29] ---**
I've got little to no hope of ever
sealing her Spirit power.
**[05:39] ---**
All right, Kurumi. I came as promised.
**[05:44] ---**
Greetings, Shido.
**[05:47] ---**
--Don't push!
--Won't Shido see us?
**[05:50] ---**
This morning, I noticed something:
You've changed a bit, Shido.
**[05:57] ---**
Eh?
**[05:58] ---**
You look like you've matured.
**[06:01] ---**
Though, I suppose it's expected
with all the carnage you've lived through.
**[06:07] ---**
D-Don't make fun.
**[06:11] ---**
Anyway, what's this condition of yours
for sealing your Spirit power?
**[06:17] ---**
Okay, okay. I'll tell you.
**[06:21] ---**
I...
**[06:32] ---**
Are you ready?
**[06:34] ---**
Of course. Good to go.
**[06:43] ---**
I'm impressed you stopped my attack!
That's Ellen for you!
**[06:47] ---**
Mana! Why are you here?!
**[06:51] ---**
What is this? Was our plan leaked?!
**[06:55] ---**
My, what a scary face!
**[06:58] ---**
Keep scowling like that
and you'll get wrinkles!
**[07:03] ---**
Artemisia, let's regroup!
**[07:07] ---**
Artemisia?
**[07:10] ---**
I don't know how you did it,
but well done.
**[07:14] ---**
You managed to thwart our plan.
**[07:18] ---**
Yeah. It's annoying, actually.
**[07:22] ---**
Oh?
**[07:23] ---**
So, what now? Looks like
you missed your big chance.
**[07:39] ---**
For real? Our turn already?
**[07:43] ---**
Whatever, as long as it helps Father.
**[07:47] ---**
So, you want us to kill her?
**[07:51] ---**
Nibeelcole, it's all you.
**[07:54] ---**
Yeah, yeah.
**[07:56] ---**
--See you later!
--Bye bye!
**[07:59] ---**
Not so fast!
**[08:02] ---**
--My, my!
--My, my!
**[08:10] ---**
Nightmare!
**[08:11] ---**
Eww, what's that?
**[08:13] ---**
They all have the same face! Creepy!
**[08:18] ---**
Like we're one to talk!
**[08:21] ---**
I can help if you're struggling, Mana.
**[08:25] ---**
I hate seeing the weak get picked on.
**[08:29] ---**
Watch your mouth! I'll lop it off
along with your head!
**[08:35] ---**
My, my! Should you really be
acting tough right now?
**[08:42] ---**
After I'm done killing you, you're next!
**[08:47] ---**
Shido...? Shido?
**[08:53] ---**
Are you all right, Shido?
**[08:57] ---**
S-Sorry. I spaced out there.
**[09:02] ---**
Now then, allow me to explain.
**[09:07] ---**
My goal is the same as it was before:
**[09:12] ---**
You have Spirit power
contained within your body...
**[09:17] ---**
...and I wish to devour it.
**[09:20] ---**
After all, there are ten Spirits worth
of power stored inside you.
**[09:26] ---**
In other words,
you want to kill me, right?
**[09:33] ---**
Your goal is to seal my Spirit power,
**[09:39] ---**
is it not?
**[09:41] ---**
Yeah, but that's not all.
**[09:45] ---**
I want you to atone for all
you've done and live a happy live.
**[09:52] ---**
That's my-- That's our ultimate goal.
**[09:59] ---**
You're too kind, Shido.
**[10:03] ---**
But, that's a problem. It's impossible
for our desires to intersect.
**[10:10] ---**
Say, Shido...
**[10:13] ---**
Rather than both our dreams
staying incomplete,
**[10:18] ---**
isn't it better if one of them came true?
**[10:23] ---**
That is, even if one of us
loses everything for it.
**[10:30] ---**
Don't be afraid.
**[10:33] ---**
I don't intend to steal
your Spirit power by force.
**[10:38] ---**
I'm willing to do things your way.
**[10:42] ---**
Huh?
**[10:46] ---**
How about whoever makes the other
fall for them is our winner?
**[10:53] ---**
Eh?
**[10:54] ---**
If I fall in love with you,
I'll willingly give up my Spirit power.
**[11:02] ---**
However...
**[11:04] ---**
...if I make you fall in love
with me first, I win.
**[11:10] ---**
Then, I get to devour you.
**[11:15] ---**
You really think I'm gonna admit
I'm in love knowing I'll die?
**[11:20] ---**
I wonder.
**[11:22] ---**
I'm confident I can make you say it,
even at the cost of your life.
**[11:30] ---**
Are you not confident you can make me
head over heels for you?
**[11:38] ---**
All right. You're on.
**[11:42] ---**
I'll make you choose me
over everything else.
**[11:49] ---**
That's the Shido I know.
**[11:53] ---**
Now then, shall we begin our date?
**[12:10] ---**
Who said you got to decide?!
If you lose, you die!
**[12:15] ---**
Sorry... But I wasn't able
to reach Fraxinus.
**[12:23] ---**
I mean, I know you had no choice but to
accept her challenge in that situation.
**[12:31] ---**
But knowing it and accepting it
are two different things!
**[12:36] ---**
Stupid Big Brother!
You never think of yourself!
**[12:40] ---**
Good grief.
**[12:45] ---**
Now you have a go.
**[12:47] ---**
Letting comms go out at a time
like that means I failed to support you.
**[12:55] ---**
If you say so. You sure about this?
**[13:01] ---**
Yeah. Do it.
**[13:06] ---**
Take this!
**[13:08] ---**
You like that?!
**[13:12] ---**
Take this!
**[13:14] ---**
And that!
**[13:19] ---**
I'll let you off with that.
**[13:24] ---**
N-No fair, Shido!
**[13:27] ---**
--Shido! We're coming in!
--Sorry we're late!
**[13:30] ---**
Addition. We had to change.
About the strategy meeting...
**[13:35] ---**
Holy smokes!
**[13:38] ---**
Um, uh... This is...
**[13:42] ---**
Shido! He...! He...!
**[13:46] ---**
There, there. It's okay, Kotori.
**[13:49] ---**
Shido! What did you do?!
**[13:52] ---**
Dear me! Did we interrupt something?
**[13:56] ---**
Hold up! It's not like that!
**[13:58] ---**
Doubt. It's not like what?
**[14:02] ---**
Are you okay, Kotori?
**[14:05] ---**
Aww! Kotori had all the fun!
**[14:08] ---**
So, you like little sisters?
**[14:11] ---**
I'm glad I prepared
these adoption forms, Big Bro.
**[14:16] ---**
This is getting out of hand.
**[14:19] ---**
Now that it's calmed down, let's move on.
**[14:24] ---**
Shido and Kurumi will be competing
to make the other fall for them.
**[14:30] ---**
Though she's after Shido's Spirit power,
**[14:33] ---**
she may still appear before you guys.
**[14:38] ---**
Be on your guard.
**[14:40] ---**
R-Right.
**[14:42] ---**
Okay. I won't take a step outside.
**[14:45] ---**
You don't have to go that far.
**[14:49] ---**
Hmm. It's puzzling.
**[14:52] ---**
What is this Kurumi after
by stealing his Spirit power?
**[14:59] ---**
She's not after power itself, is she?
**[15:02] ---**
Uh, well...
**[15:05] ---**
I think I have a good idea
about what Kurumin's goal is.
**[15:10] ---**
Eh?
**[15:11] ---**
I wasn't trying to hide it, but...
**[15:15] ---**
Actually, Kurumin has
come to my place before.
**[15:20] ---**
She wanted me to
look things up with Raziel:
**[15:24] ---**
About the Spirit of Origin
and how to beat it.
**[15:30] ---**
The Spirit of Origin...
**[15:33] ---**
Yeah. The Spirit that first
appeared 30 years ago.
**[15:39] ---**
She wanted to know where and when
it showed up, and about its power.
**[15:47] ---**
In order to kill it.
**[15:50] ---**
Kill?
**[15:54] ---**
So, her asking about
the exact time and place...
**[15:58] ---**
Is to make the Spirit that appeared
30 years ago never happen.
**[16:04] ---**
When I got help from Kurumi Tokisaki
in the other world, she said as much.
**[16:11] ---**
I see. Kurumi can go into the past.
**[16:16] ---**
But to do so, she needs
the power inside Shido.
**[16:20] ---**
She'll kill the Spirit of Origin
that appeared 30 years ago...
**[16:25] ---**
...and erase it from history.
**[16:29] ---**
That's Kurumi's goal.
**[16:32] ---**
Argh, jeez! Now there're
even more questions.
**[16:36] ---**
Kill the Spirit of Origin?
Why would she do that?
**[16:42] ---**
It's dangerous to dig deeper
knowing so little.
**[16:46] ---**
It's worthwhile trying to connect
the dots, no matter how small.
**[16:51] ---**
True.
**[16:53] ---**
But the problem is that
Kurumi's shrouded in mystery.
**[16:59] ---**
I've got something I wanna say, too.
**[17:03] ---**
Mana! What happened to you?!
**[17:06] ---**
It's no big deal. Just some scratches.
**[17:10] ---**
Didn't I tell you to sit
your butt in a medical pod?
**[17:15] ---**
I gave her permission.
**[17:17] ---**
She said she had something
important to say.
**[17:22] ---**
Yeah. Take a look at this.
**[17:36] ---**
Kurumi's clone army?
**[17:39] ---**
I think this fight is what caused
the communications disruption.
**[17:45] ---**
Anyway, I managed to thwart DEM.
**[17:50] ---**
That's what you said in the report.
**[17:53] ---**
What I don't get is how you
predicted Ellen would attack.
**[18:00] ---**
Well...
**[18:02] ---**
Nightmare... Kurumi Tokisaki told me.
**[18:13] ---**
She said that Ellen would be launching
an attack on Big Brother.
**[18:19] ---**
She told me exactly where and when...
which was yesterday.
**[18:25] ---**
So? Why did the lovely Mana
keep this secret from me?
**[18:32] ---**
It's just, I figured you wouldn't let me
go if I said anything, you know?
**[18:38] ---**
You know me well. You and I
will have a long talk later.
**[18:44] ---**
Ugh! Please spare me!
**[18:47] ---**
Back to Kurumi.
**[18:49] ---**
Yeah. Why did she tell Mana
that Ellen would attack?
**[18:54] ---**
For starters, how did she
know it would happen?
**[18:58] ---**
Perhaps she just wanted to protect you.
**[19:02] ---**
Tokisaki Kurumi is after
your Spirit power.
**[19:06] ---**
She wouldn't be pleased
if DEM got you first.
**[19:11] ---**
And she has an army of clones
to gather information.
**[19:17] ---**
Maybe she found out
about their plans somehow.
**[19:22] ---**
Well, that's true...
**[19:25] ---**
Something on your mind, Shido?
**[19:28] ---**
Uh, well...
**[19:33] ---**
It's nothing. Anyway,
let's prepare for tomorrow.
**[19:42] ---**
Wha--?!
**[19:43] ---**
Good morning, Shido. What a lovely day.
**[19:48] ---**
Kurumi?! Why are you here?!
**[19:51] ---**
My, my. Is it odd for classmates
to walk to school together?
**[19:58] ---**
Come, let's go.
**[20:01] ---**
Reine, we've got trouble.
**[20:04] ---**
Understood. Kurumi, right?
**[20:07] ---**
She's gone on the offensive.
I'll contact Kotori.
**[20:12] ---**
Just play along for now.
**[20:16] ---**
Oh, yeah! Kurumi, will you come with me?
I wanna show you something.
**[20:22] ---**
Oh? I can't wait to see what it is!
**[20:28] ---**
Well then, after you!
**[20:34] ---**
This is...?
**[20:35] ---**
Where all the local cats gather.
I thought you might like it, Kurumi.
**[20:41] ---**
I-I don't know why you'd think that.
**[20:50] ---**
C'mon. You, too.
**[20:53] ---**
W-Well, if you insist...
**[20:59] ---**
It's okay. Don't be afraid.
**[21:09] ---**
Wh-What's so funny, Shido?!
**[21:14] ---**
Sorry. That wasn't supposed to happen.
**[21:17] ---**
C'mon, there's lots of other cats.
Try petting one.
**[21:23] ---**
No, thanks. It'll just run away again.
**[21:28] ---**
It'll go better this time.
**[21:32] ---**
Perhaps you're right.
**[21:35] ---**
Hmm?
**[21:37] ---**
There, there!
**[21:40] ---**
You're right! This little kitten likes it!
**[21:44] ---**
Meow!
**[21:47] ---**
Shall we say round one ended in a tie?
**[21:52] ---**
"Episode 09:
'Nightmare's Seduction.'"
**[21:52] ---**
Meow...
**[23:25] ---**
Valentine's is here!
Excited girls! Panicking boys!
**[23:30] ---**
When the world's fate is involved,
excitement and panic is expected!
**[23:34] ---**
Next time: "Girl Time."
Watch it or I'll seal you!
**[23:35] ---**
"Episode 10: 'Girl Time.'"
**[23:39] ---**
**[23:41] ---**

**[00:03] ---**
Is it going well, me?
**[00:06] ---**
Indeed. Exactly as planned.
**[00:10] ---**
I heard from me #193...
**[00:14] ---**
...and me #238 not long ago.
**[00:20] ---**
There's no time to dilly-dally.
**[00:23] ---**
It's about time for the next step.
**[00:27] ---**
Then let's get moving.
**[00:30] ---**
Let us meet again soon...
**[00:33] ---**
On the path to Hades.
**[00:36] ---**
In Hell on Earth.
**[02:15] ---**
Hmm? Something wrong?
**[02:20] ---**
No, but what a cute lunch that is.
**[02:25] ---**
You want a bite?
**[02:29] ---**
I'd feel guilty if I didn't share, too.
**[02:33] ---**
Would you take some of mine as a trade?
**[02:52] ---**
Oh? What are they doing?
**[02:55] ---**
A battle's taking place.
**[02:57] ---**
Two pros are facing off,
just like in manga!
**[03:02] ---**
Insight. I think I see their auras.
**[03:06] ---**
Here. Help yourself.
**[03:09] ---**
"Meow"
**[03:16] ---**
Hmm? Having trouble deciding?
**[03:28] ---**
I-I'll take this one.
**[03:46] ---**
Th-That's Shido for you.
It's super delicious.
**[03:52] ---**
Really? I'm glad you like it.
**[03:55] ---**
Now it's my turn. Say "Ah!"
**[04:01] ---**
Ahh!
**[04:05] ---**
What do you think, Shido?
**[04:08] ---**
Yeah, it's delicious.
I'm always the one making the food.
**[04:14] ---**
I haven't had anyone else's
home cooking in forever!
**[04:18] ---**
My, my. You exaggerate.
**[04:22] ---**
Care for another?
**[04:25] ---**
Do try my egg omelet.
**[04:28] ---**
Ooh! I don't get it, but I'm impressed!
**[04:32] ---**
Tohka, stand back. It's dangerous.
**[04:35] ---**
Grr! How dare they show off without us!
**[04:40] ---**
Agreement. We want to compete, too.
**[04:49] ---**
These bonito flakes!
This is no ordinary soy sauce!
**[04:54] ---**
Same here. There's seaweed in it.
And tuna, too!
**[05:01] ---**
Could I interest you in some of this?
**[05:05] ---**
Wh-What the--?!
**[05:08] ---**
Hot... miso soup?!
**[05:17] ---**
Shall we chalk this up as another tie?
**[05:22] ---**
For sure.
**[05:23] ---**
--Whoa!
--Whoa!
**[05:25] ---**
Oh? Could you hold still for me?
**[05:30] ---**
Wh-What?
**[05:35] ---**
Say, Shido...
**[05:37] ---**
Do you have any plans
after school next Wednesday?
**[05:43] ---**
Wednesday? Sorry, but I'm
doing something I can't miss:
**[05:48] ---**
Oh?
**[05:50] ---**
Going on a date with the girl
in front of me, that is.
**[05:55] ---**
Oh my. My, my. I see we have
the same thing in mind.
**[06:01] ---**
Thanks for your time in advance.
**[06:05] ---**
Of course. But you don't mean
"Thanks for your time" in the normal way.
**[06:12] ---**
What a funny thing to say.
**[06:15] ---**
You can interpret it
the standard way, if you please.
**[06:21] ---**
However, when it comes to
the day in question...
**[06:27] ---**
I plan to do exactly what you're thinking.
**[06:35] ---**
I'm looking forward to it, Shido.
**[06:51] ---**
You okay, Shido?
**[06:53] ---**
Yeah, more or less.
**[06:56] ---**
That went well. Kurumi's levels
had some swings there.
**[07:01] ---**
Really?
**[07:02] ---**
Though, a certain someone's
levels swung just as much.
**[07:08] ---**
Erk!
**[07:09] ---**
Hey, why did Kurumi pick next Wednesday?
Is there something then?
**[07:15] ---**
Next Wednesday...
**[07:19] ---**
"Holidays: Valentine's Day"
**[07:20] ---**
You get chocolate from people
that like you?! Wow, what a fun day!
**[07:27] ---**
Well, you're right about that,
but you're on the giving side.
**[07:32] ---**
Hmm? Oh...
**[07:35] ---**
That's okay. I'm happy
to give Shido something...
**[07:40] ---**
You're clearly disappointed.
**[07:43] ---**
Kurumi plans to win their battle
with a Valentine's date.
**[07:48] ---**
And if Darling loses,
she'll take his Spirit power and life.
**[07:53] ---**
I doubt Shido will admit defeat
if doing so costs his life.
**[08:00] ---**
Kurumi wouldn't challenge him
unless she thought she could win.
**[08:06] ---**
We have two plays here: One is for
all of us to give him chocolate, too.
**[08:12] ---**
Drown her out, huh?
**[08:14] ---**
True... If I was a guy and only got
chocolate from Kurumin,
**[08:19] ---**
I'd fall for her.
**[08:22] ---**
Wise plan, but I was
giving him some anyway.
**[08:26] ---**
So, the other play we have is...
**[08:41] ---**
Origami? Or Miku, or Nia?
**[08:46] ---**
--That's Shido for you.
--Nice guess!
**[08:49] ---**
Given your choices, it's no surprise!
**[08:54] ---**
May I, Shido? Just relax.
**[08:57] ---**
That's right. We girls
will take care of you.
**[09:02] ---**
Yeah, yeah. With some experience,
Kurumi's nothing to be afraid of!
**[09:08] ---**
--Good grief!
--Whoa!
**[09:10] ---**
Whatever you're up to,
go back to your rooms!
**[09:14] ---**
--Aww, that's no fun!
--I knew it wouldn't work.
**[09:16] ---**
Jeez! What the heck?
**[09:23] ---**
Who is it now? Don't tell me... Kurumi?!
**[09:31] ---**
Wh-What?
**[09:33] ---**
Oh? That's Shido Itsuka?
**[09:36] ---**
Looks pretty normal to me.
**[09:39] ---**
Yeah? I think he's cute!
**[09:43] ---**
Paper?
**[09:46] ---**
Boo!
**[09:48] ---**
You're DEM's thing...!
**[09:51] ---**
Oh? You know us?
**[09:53] ---**
Calling us "DEM's thing" is so rude.
**[09:56] ---**
Yeah! We're proper Spirits, too!
**[10:00] ---**
We're called Nibeelcole.
Cool name, right?
**[10:04] ---**
But since Father made us,
we're different than the Spirits you know.
**[10:10] ---**
Spirits? Father? Made you?
**[10:16] ---**
Confused?
**[10:17] ---**
We could explain,
but it's pointless. Because...
**[10:22] ---**
...you're gonna die anyway.
**[10:32] ---**
Oh? Camael's regeneration, huh?
**[10:36] ---**
That's gonna make this annoying.
**[10:38] ---**
It's no fair if you can't die.
**[10:42] ---**
Whatever. We'll just
kill him till he does.
**[10:56] ---**
Huh?
**[11:03] ---**
Morning, Kotori.
**[11:07] ---**
Koto... ri?!
**[11:21] ---**
What are you staring at?
**[11:24] ---**
The bare legs of your Big Sis, perhaps?
You're a guy, after all.
**[11:29] ---**
B-Big Sis?! You're Kotori... right?
**[11:34] ---**
You've gotta be. But what are those?
**[11:38] ---**
Huh? "Those"?
**[11:40] ---**
Even if you had a growth spurt,
that doesn't explain those boob--
**[11:45] ---**
Shido.
**[11:49] ---**
Wha--?!
**[11:52] ---**
Shido, Mom needs you to taste test.
By the way, I'm Dad.
**[11:58] ---**
Um... Could you help me, Son?
I mean... sweetie?
**[12:05] ---**
Shido! I mean... Itsuka!
It's time for Health Ed. class.
**[12:11] ---**
You see, a stamen and a pistil...
**[12:14] ---**
Morning, Shido.
**[12:16] ---**
Too bad you weren't here
when I didn't have a towel.
**[12:21] ---**
Or did you come to take it off
yourself, you bad boy?
**[12:26] ---**
Oho, do you have a boo-boo?
Where does it hurt?
**[12:31] ---**
Point. Even as an adult,
you talk like a child.
**[12:37] ---**
Hmm. Are you awake, Mister?
**[12:42] ---**
Huh? Huh?
**[12:44] ---**
"We tried to get a head start"
**[12:47] ---**
We failed, but refuse to give up.
Who said a little girl can't be a big sis?
**[12:54] ---**
Grr! Why were we made small?!
I wanna help Darling out, too!
**[13:02] ---**
With us for contrast,
it's easier to see their "assets."
**[13:06] ---**
Wh-What is all this?
**[13:09] ---**
It's training.
**[13:11] ---**
Training?
**[13:12] ---**
Yes.
**[13:13] ---**
To ensure you don't fall victim
to Kurumi Tokisaki's sexiness.
**[13:20] ---**
To better resist Kurumi, you need to get
used to a mature girl's charms.
**[13:25] ---**
Ah... You used Natsumi's
Haniel to transform?
**[13:29] ---**
Well then, let's resume the training.
**[13:37] ---**
Itsuka! You're late for
Tohka-*sensei*'s Naughty Class!
**[13:41] ---**
Don't be shy! You can touch 'em!
**[13:44] ---**
Mister, come spend
an indulgent night with Muku.
**[13:49] ---**
Argh, jeez! I can't take this!
**[13:52] ---**
Where are you going, Itsuka?!
Class is in session!
**[13:58] ---**
Eh?
**[14:00] ---**
Reine?
**[14:05] ---**
Oh... There, there.
**[14:15] ---**
"Baking Chocolate"
**[14:15] ---**
Let's move on to the next plan.
Reine got these ingredients for us.
**[14:21] ---**
If you don't know what to do,
ask me or Reine.
**[14:25] ---**
Hmm... So many ingredients
to choose from.
**[14:31] ---**
Sister, what's the difference between
these light and dark colors?
**[14:37] ---**
Huh? Um, well...
**[14:42] ---**
The milk to cocoa ratio.
**[14:45] ---**
Basically, darker means it's more bitter,
and lighter means its sweeter.
**[14:51] ---**
Oho, I see.
**[14:54] ---**
I learned something.
**[14:57] ---**
Thanks, Reine.
**[14:59] ---**
What kind of chocolate will you make?
**[15:02] ---**
Hmm... Just melting it
into a shape feels so uninspired.
**[15:08] ---**
Though, if it's too involved,
I might mess up.
**[15:13] ---**
You're probably worrying over nothing.
**[15:16] ---**
Think of who you're giving it to.
**[15:20] ---**
Will they disapprove of something
you made just because it's simple?
**[15:27] ---**
You're right--I'm overthinking things.
**[15:32] ---**
Kotori, Reine!
**[15:34] ---**
I want to make chocolate
that I can drizzle over my body!
**[15:39] ---**
I wanna make him some
super-energy-boost bars!
**[15:44] ---**
What should go in it? Softshell--
**[15:47] ---**
Make normal chocolate!
**[15:53] ---**
What's this?
**[15:55] ---**
Silicone for a mold case.
**[15:58] ---**
A mold of what?
**[16:00] ---**
Me.
**[16:05] ---**
I see. But there's just
one problem with that:
**[16:10] ---**
Problem?
**[16:11] ---**
Think how much volume
there is in a human body.
**[16:16] ---**
Shin would consume
an excessive amount of sugar.
**[16:22] ---**
I didn't consider that.
How embarrassing.
**[16:26] ---**
You're too busy thinking about Shin.
**[16:29] ---**
Next time, keep his health in mind.
**[16:35] ---**
All right. I'll size it down
while maintaining the quality.
**[16:42] ---**
Sorry to drag you into this
on your day off, Reine.
**[16:47] ---**
Um, I've always wondered, Reine:
**[16:52] ---**
Why do you refer to Shido as Shin?
**[16:57] ---**
At first, I thought his name was Shintaro.
**[17:02] ---**
I've kept calling him that ever since.
**[17:06] ---**
Ah, so that's why...
**[17:10] ---**
Now then, I suppose I should get
started on mine, too.
**[17:15] ---**
You? Huh? Who for?
**[17:18] ---**
Well, the Fraxinus crew, my colleagues
at Raizen High, and Shin, too.
**[17:25] ---**
Aww! I thought maybe
you found someone special!
**[17:29] ---**
Sorry to disappoint you,
but there's no one like that these days.
**[17:36] ---**
Confirmation. You said, "these days."
**[17:39] ---**
Oh, yeah? So there was someone
you liked in the past?
**[17:44] ---**
--Really?
--Are you serious?
--For real?
**[17:48] ---**
Mm, there was. Just one.
**[17:52] ---**
--Ooh!
--Ooh!
**[17:54] ---**
I'm shocked. What were they like?
**[17:57] ---**
If it's someone Reine liked,
I bet they were lovely.
**[18:03] ---**
Yes, he was very kind.
Such a kind person.
**[18:09] ---**
I doubt that anyone--past or future--
can surpass his place in my heart.
**[18:16] ---**
He was my first love...
and will be my last love.
**[18:25] ---**
What a beautiful story, Ms. Murasame.
**[18:31] ---**
I almost envy you.
**[18:34] ---**
Kurumi!
**[18:35] ---**
So, this is where you live?
**[18:39] ---**
Isn't it just lovely?
**[18:43] ---**
To be honest, I was planning to give
Shido some chocolate, too.
**[18:49] ---**
If you don't mind, may I join you?
**[18:56] ---**
Sure, you can join us.
**[18:59] ---**
Agreed. It's a good chance to get
data on her. I'll return to Fraxinus.
**[19:06] ---**
Yeah, please do.
**[19:08] ---**
Well, since I have permission,
**[19:12] ---**
I'll get started right away.
**[19:15] ---**
Shido's heart shall be mine.
**[19:20] ---**
Not happening! I'll protect Shido!
**[19:23] ---**
I-I'll do my best!
**[19:25] ---**
It won't go your way!
**[19:29] ---**
I won't lose so easily.

**[19:34] ---**
So, Kotori... How do I start?
**[19:38] ---**
Kotori? How do you melt chocolate?
**[19:43] ---**
Huh? Uh, well...
**[19:46] ---**
Oh, my, Kotori. Is it your first time
tempering chocolate?
**[19:52] ---**
O-Of course, I've done it before!
**[19:56] ---**
Tempering...?
**[19:59] ---**
Temper... ing...
**[20:03] ---**
Temper... Tenpa!
**[20:05] ---**
Huh? Wh-What?
**[20:08] ---**
Uh, it's nothing!
**[20:13] ---**
Melting chocolate is as easy as this!
**[20:22] ---**
Stop the heat!
**[20:23] ---**
Just take the pot off!
**[20:25] ---**
Hot!
**[20:26] ---**
My, my.
**[20:29] ---**
O-Origami, you know how
to make chocolate, don't you?
**[20:39] ---**
What?
**[20:42] ---**
Um, Kotori?
**[20:44] ---**
What?!
**[20:45] ---**
Um, well... I'm not super confident,
**[20:51] ---**
but I think I know the basics.
**[20:55] ---**
My savior!
**[21:03] ---**
--Happy Valentine's!
--Happy Valentine's!
**[21:08] ---**
Thanks, everyone! I've never gotten
this much chocolate!
**[21:13] ---**
Mister, don't lose to that girl!
**[21:16] ---**
They give you more at school.
**[21:19] ---**
Eat our chocolate
and do your best, Shido!
**[21:23] ---**
Right!
**[21:28] ---**
Now then, what comes next?
**[21:31] ---**
Next is our turn.
**[21:35] ---**
Ah, yes. Godspeed.
**[21:38] ---**
To a good death.
**[21:40] ---**
To a meaningful demise.
**[21:44] ---**
For my sake.
**[21:46] ---**
And my sake.
**[21:48] ---**
And my sake.
**[21:51] ---**
And... Shido's sake.

Wednesday"
**[00:04] ---**
Shido! Happy Valentine's!
**[00:07] ---**
Yeah. Thanks, Tohka.
**[00:10] ---**
Mm-hmm! I'm proud of these!
**[00:13] ---**
Can I open it?
**[00:14] ---**
Of course you can!
**[00:17] ---**
Is it *kinako*-flavored?
**[00:19] ---**
Yup, you know it!
I made 'em with all my heart!
**[00:26] ---**
My golden wings shall spread and fly!
**[00:30] ---**
Present. We've been waiting
to give these to you.
**[00:36] ---**
Thanks. And you even came
all the way to my classroom.
**[00:43] ---**
Ooh!
**[00:45] ---**
Origami...
**[00:46] ---**
Yes?
**[00:48] ---**
Uh, how to put it...?
**[00:50] ---**
It's incredible. Thank you.
**[00:54] ---**
I'm glad.
**[00:57] ---**
That's really impressive.
**[00:59] ---**
--Damn you! Damn you! Damn you!
--Die! Die! Die!

Yes, eat! Feast upon it!

Jeez, they're unbelievable...
**[01:39] ---**
Guys, over here!
**[01:41] ---**
That's so lame.
**[01:43] ---**
--Come get it!
--Come get it!
**[01:53] ---**
Thank you! Thank you!

**[02:04] ---**
Praise our saviors! Our goddesses!
**[02:10] ---**
My, my. You're all so lively this morning.
**[02:18] ---**
Good morning, Shido.
**[02:22] ---**
Kurumi...
**[02:29] ---**
There's no need to be so tense.
Let's save the fun for later, shall we?
**[02:36] ---**
Yeah, I can't wait. I've already set up
a room for you in the Spirit dorm.
**[02:44] ---**
Oh, my.
**[04:19] ---**
Kurumi.
**[04:20] ---**
Oh?
**[04:23] ---**
What's new with you, Shido?
**[04:26] ---**
Not much. Just came to
ask you out on a date.
**[04:30] ---**
Oh, my! If you're up for it, I'd love to!
**[04:37] ---**
--Shall we?
--Yeah.
**[04:43] ---**
Shido... Good luck!
**[04:48] ---**
"1. Home"
"2. Karaoke"
"3. Net Café"
**[04:48] ---**
Shido, some choices came up.
Let's decide where to go.
**[04:54] ---**
Hold up, Kotori.
**[04:56] ---**
Huh?
**[04:57] ---**
I've already decided where I'll take her.
**[05:02] ---**
In other words, you don't
trust my capabilities?
**[05:07] ---**
No, it's not like that, MARIA...
**[05:10] ---**
Just kidding. We serve as a support role.
**[05:14] ---**
If you have a strong conviction,
you should follow it. Right, Commander?
**[05:21] ---**
Sure. After all, he's the world's best
specialist at dealing with Spirits.
**[05:28] ---**
Go for it.
**[05:29] ---**
Thanks, Kotori, MARIA...
**[05:35] ---**
Sorry to make you wait.
**[05:38] ---**
It's okay. By the way, Shido,
there's somewhere I'd like to go.
**[05:45] ---**
I had somewhere in mind, too.
Probably the same place as you.
**[05:50] ---**
My, my. Then let's see if you're right.
**[05:55] ---**
Lead the way to where
you think I want to go.
**[06:07] ---**
Hmm? So this is where
you wanted to bring me?
**[06:12] ---**
That's right.
**[06:14] ---**
You want to see me in
my underwear that badly?
**[06:19] ---**
N-No, that's not it!
**[06:21] ---**
Well, I do, but that's beside the point!
**[06:25] ---**
--You guessed right.
--Eh?
**[06:28] ---**
I wanted to come here, too.
**[06:31] ---**
Do you remember bringing
one of my clones to this place?
**[06:37] ---**
Ever since, I've always wondered
how the "me" who was with you felt.
**[06:47] ---**
What was she thinking--the "me"
whose heart you managed to steal?
**[06:53] ---**
Although she was naïve,
she was still "me."
**[06:59] ---**
Are you sure you want the same date?
**[07:03] ---**
Huh?
**[07:04] ---**
Clone or not, I made
Kurumi Tokisaki fall for me.
**[07:09] ---**
I'll take you on the same
date as back then.
**[07:13] ---**
At the end of today, you won't
be able to think of anything but me.
**[07:19] ---**
You really think you can
make me fall for you?
**[07:24] ---**
Of course.
**[07:44] ---**
Do you remember this place, Shido?
**[07:48] ---**
I sure do. This is where you
made me watch you fight Mana.
**[07:55] ---**
Oh, I almost forgot...
**[07:59] ---**
Happy Valentine's.
**[08:02] ---**
Thanks! Did you really forget?
**[08:05] ---**
Yeah. It goes to show how much fun I had.
**[08:10] ---**
I dare say, it's one of the
best days I can remember.
**[08:16] ---**
I've got something, too.
**[08:22] ---**
Happy Valentine's, Kurumi.
**[08:24] ---**
Oh, my!
**[08:26] ---**
There's no rule against
a guy giving out chocolate.
**[08:32] ---**
Open it up.
**[08:33] ---**
All right. You, too.
**[08:36] ---**
Okay.
**[08:44] ---**
Are these candied orange peels
in the chocolate? Delicious!
**[08:49] ---**
Yours are good, too!
Is this hazelnut I taste?
**[08:55] ---**
Not bad, not bad...

"Happiness Meter"
"Mood"
"Mental State"
**[08:59] ---**
Kurumi isn't lying--she's genuinely
enjoying today's date.
**[09:06] ---**
She hasn't closed her heart off, either.
If anything, she's fond of him.
**[09:12] ---**
However, there's something
holding her back:
**[09:17] ---**
A resolve, some will, or the like.
**[09:21] ---**
Until we root out whatever it is,
we won't be able to seal her power.
**[09:28] ---**
A resolve... Some will...
**[09:33] ---**
Hey, Kurumi.
**[09:34] ---**
Yes, Shido?
**[09:37] ---**
Mind telling me why you want
to kill the Spirit of Origin?
**[09:44] ---**
You heard it from Nia?
What a blabbermouth.
**[09:50] ---**
Shido, are you prepared to know the truth?
**[09:57] ---**
About my... everything.
**[10:01] ---**
Yeah.
**[10:17] ---**
We've lost cameras and intercom.
We're completely cut off from Shido.
**[10:22] ---**
Send some replacements!
**[10:25] ---**
Shido...
**[10:28] ---**
And how about now?
**[10:32] ---**
Even now.
**[10:43] ---**
This is...?
**[10:44] ---**
A nearby abandoned building.
It's one of my bases.
**[10:50] ---**
Shido, you said you're prepared to
know everything there is about me.
**[10:56] ---**
In that case, please take it all in.
**[11:02] ---**
Zaphkiel, Yod.
**[11:09] ---**
Kurumi... Kurumi!
**[11:22] ---**
Come, I'm right here!
**[11:36] ---**
Kurumi!
**[11:38] ---**
Are you okay?
**[11:40] ---**
Yeah.
**[11:42] ---**
It's okay, you're safe now.
**[11:48] ---**
Thanks so much!
**[11:51] ---**
No more climbing up trees!
**[12:00] ---**
That was cool of you, Kurumi.
**[12:06] ---**
Thank you, Sawa.
**[12:12] ---**
You're like a hero of justice.
**[12:15] ---**
You're always helping the elderly
and kids who've lost their way.
**[12:21] ---**
That's not--
**[12:22] ---**
Their town destroyed by civil war,
20,000 refugees have fled to camps.
**[12:27] ---**
"Breaking News"
"Border Conflict Worsens: "It's like hell...'"

**[12:29] ---**
But in these unsanitary camps,

**[12:35] ---**
Kurumi, would you like
to come to my place?
**[12:39] ---**
Huh?
**[12:40] ---**
I bet Marron would love to see you again.
**[12:44] ---**
Remember? The American Shorthair
you played with last time.
**[12:50] ---**
Really?! You sure you don't mind?!
**[12:53] ---**
Of course not! Marron will love it!
**[13:06] ---**
It was so cute!
**[13:23] ---**
No!
**[13:29] ---**
Huh?
**[13:36] ---**
Are you okay?
**[13:40] ---**
Th-Thank you.
**[13:44] ---**
You saved me. What was that?
**[13:48] ---**
A Spirit--monsters which
destroy the world.
**[13:53] ---**
Spirit?
**[13:55] ---**
Who are you? Why are you here?
**[13:58] ---**
Um, my name's Kurumi Tokisaki.
I was just heading home...
**[14:04] ---**
And wandered here on your own?
Hmm. Perhaps you have the affinity.
**[14:12] ---**
Affinity? Who are you exactly?
**[14:17] ---**
I'm Mio Takamiya.
You could say I'm a hero of justice.
**[14:28] ---**
Spirits are my enemy.
**[14:31] ---**
They're of the same ilk to what attacked
you--monsters which harm the world.
**[14:38] ---**
Kurumi, do you wish for power?
**[14:41] ---**
Power?
**[14:42] ---**
Surely you're compatible with Sephirah.
Join me, and let's save the world.
**[14:50] ---**
Save... the world.
**[14:56] ---**
Huh?!
**[15:07] ---**
I knew I was right about you.
**[15:15] ---**
Now, don your Spirit armor.
**[15:17] ---**
Huh?
**[15:19] ---**
With this, you should instinctively know
your powers and how to use them.
**[15:26] ---**
D-Deploy Spirit armor...
**[15:35] ---**
Huh?!
**[15:42] ---**
This is... me?!
**[15:46] ---**
I've long searched for an ally
who could help and fight at my side.
**[15:52] ---**
Kurumi Tokisaki, I believe you can.
**[15:56] ---**
Help me defeat Spirits and save the world.
**[16:37] ---**
Zaphkiel, Het.
**[16:57] ---**
Does it make me stand out too much?
**[17:01] ---**
Kurumi? Is something wrong?
**[17:04] ---**
Sawa! N-No, it's nothing!
**[17:08] ---**
Your eye still isn't better?
**[17:11] ---**
Y-Yeah, I guess it's one stubborn sty.
**[17:16] ---**
That's no good. I hope you get well.
**[17:19] ---**
Thank you.
**[17:22] ---**
Want to come to my place after school?
**[17:25] ---**
My aunt's bringing
Marron's siblings to play.
**[17:29] ---**
Really?! Uh...
**[17:32] ---**
I-I'm terribly sorry, but I have
plans I can't miss today.
**[17:38] ---**
Yeah? That's too bad.
You sure are busy lately.
**[17:44] ---**
I'm sorry. But please,
ask me some other time!
**[17:48] ---**
Yeah, of course.
**[17:52] ---**
For real! I mean it!
**[17:54] ---**
A-All right.
**[17:58] ---**
Kurumi, I'm counting on you again.
**[18:02] ---**
Of course. Leave it to me, Mio.
**[18:09] ---**
Deploy Spirit armor, Elohim!
**[18:17] ---**
Zaphkiel!
**[18:22] ---**
This should do it.
**[18:31] ---**
So persistent.
**[18:39] ---**
Good work. As always,
I'll take care of the cleanup.
**[18:45] ---**
Yes, thank you. Have a good day.
**[18:52] ---**
If I hurry, I might be able to visit Sawa.
**[18:58] ---**
Wait... What if I invited Mio?
We haven't had many chances to chat...
**[19:11] ---**
Mio!
**[19:14] ---**
Sawa?!
**[19:17] ---**
It's someone you know?
I'm sorry to hear that.
**[19:25] ---**
What a shame. I hoped to have
you as a partner for longer.
**[19:34] ---**
Spirits are humans
who were given Sephirah.
**[19:39] ---**
No, it's more accurate to say
I bestowed them my power.
**[19:50] ---**
Z-Zaphkiel, Daletto!
**[19:58] ---**
I'm shocked. You avoided
inversion all on your own.
**[20:04] ---**
That's a relief. It'd be bothersome if
your refined Sephirah went back to normal.
**[20:12] ---**
Inversion? Refined?
**[20:15] ---**
Initially, Sephirah aren't
compatible with humans.
**[20:19] ---**
Unable to control its power,
they go berserk when given one.
**[20:25] ---**
Like this girl whom you killed.
**[20:29] ---**
To make Sephirah compatible with humans,
they must be refined.
**[20:35] ---**
That is, by giving them
to humans, over and over.
**[20:40] ---**
The humans will go berserk, of course,
**[20:44] ---**
but in time, the Sephirah
will turn compatible.
**[20:48] ---**
Only then will a human with strong
affinity remain themselves as a Spirit.
**[20:55] ---**
One like you.
**[20:58] ---**
But recovering Sephirah can be difficult.
You've been a great help.
**[21:04] ---**
How could you do this?!
**[21:08] ---**
I have no grudge against you people.
**[21:11] ---**
However, I cannot stop
until I achieve my goal.
**[21:17] ---**
Until then, good night, Kurumi.
**[21:31] ---**
Kurumi...
**[21:33] ---**
The Spirit took away my memories.
**[21:37] ---**
The only reason I remember
is thanks to Zaphkiel.
**[21:45] ---**
I will kill the Spirit of Origin...
No matter what it takes.

**[00:04] ---**
I'm not saying everything
I've done was right.
**[00:09] ---**
I did the Spirit of Origin's bidding,
murdered countless people,
**[00:15] ---**
and even took the life of a close friend.
**[00:19] ---**
And then, to rid the world of that Spirit,
**[00:24] ---**
I'll leave behind a mountain of corpses.
**[00:28] ---**
I'm a devil. An enemy of humanity.
**[00:33] ---**
I kill, kill, and kill some more.
**[00:38] ---**
A "nightmare" of endless death.
**[00:42] ---**
If there really is an afterlife,
**[00:46] ---**
I'm bound for the lowest level.
**[00:51] ---**
But I don't care.
**[00:54] ---**
Not if I can slay the
Spirit of Origin, Mio Takamiya,
**[00:59] ---**
by my own hand.
**[01:02] ---**
Takamiya...?
**[01:04] ---**
I'm going to redo everything.
**[01:08] ---**
Bring all that's happened back to zero.
**[01:12] ---**
But for that, I need the power you hold!
**[01:17] ---**
With your power,
I know I can change history!
**[01:22] ---**
History...?
**[01:23] ---**
If I go into the past and erase
the Spirit of Origin,
**[01:27] ---**
I'll never become a Spirit.
**[01:31] ---**
Sawa's death... and everyone else's deaths
will simply not happen.
**[01:38] ---**
Even my devouring of you
should cease to take place.
**[01:43] ---**
Shido, I'm begging you!
**[01:47] ---**
Please, let me borrow
your power to make it so!
**[01:53] ---**
Of course, there's nothing
I can offer as a fair trade.
**[01:58] ---**
After all, it doesn't change
the fact I'm asking for your life.
**[02:05] ---**
So, the least I can do...
**[02:07] ---**
H-Hey!
**[02:18] ---**
...is to give you my everything,
save for my Spirit power.
**[04:10] ---**
Found you!
**[04:23] ---**
Oh, my!
**[04:24] ---**
Were you two having fun?
**[04:26] ---**
Sorry about that!
**[04:28] ---**
Don't let us stop you!
**[04:31] ---**
It'd be sad to die
without "knowing" a girl.
**[04:35] ---**
My, my.
**[04:36] ---**
For being a bunch of phony Spirits,
you sure have some nerve.
**[04:42] ---**
Oh? You're calling us phony?
**[04:46] ---**
Sounds like you're
insulting Father to me.
**[04:50] ---**
Unforgivable!
**[04:56] ---**
Zaphkiel, Zayin!
**[05:23] ---**
Kurumi? Kurumi!
**[05:29] ---**
Yet another failure?
That's quite curious.
**[05:34] ---**
Seems odd to me knowing Beelzebub
set her up for success.
**[05:40] ---**
If inability isn't the reason for failure,
I'd love to hear what is.
**[05:46] ---**
Wow, Ellen. You're not holding back.
**[05:50] ---**
Well, then. What do you have to say?
**[05:55] ---**
Oh? She's asking for it.
**[05:57] ---**
You've failed more than anyone.
**[06:00] ---**
Such a mad grandma.
**[06:02] ---**
Being old must suck.
**[06:04] ---**
Excuse me?!
**[06:06] ---**
Get this, Father!
**[06:09] ---**
People get in our way!
**[06:11] ---**
"Nightmare," was it?
**[06:14] ---**
Such a nuisance! What's her problem?!
**[06:17] ---**
If not for her, we could've killed
Shido Itsuka dozens of times!
**[06:22] ---**
Hmm... The Worst Spirit
protecting a human.
**[06:27] ---**
What strange times we're in.
**[06:30] ---**
But it seems too implausible,
even for Nightmare.
**[06:35] ---**
She's defied every single plan of ours.
**[06:39] ---**
Perhaps she knows what we plan to do,
even before we do it.
**[06:45] ---**
Were our plans leaked?
**[06:47] ---**
No...
**[06:49] ---**
Not our plans,
but our attacks themselves.
**[06:57] ---**
Kurumi, are you okay? Kurumi!
**[07:03] ---**
Sorry to keep you waiting, Shido.
**[07:08] ---**
Kurumi...?
**[07:10] ---**
You're Kurumi's... clone?
**[07:14] ---**
Yes. The me before you is sleeping.
**[07:19] ---**
Please let her rest for a while.
**[07:23] ---**
She's completely exhausted.
**[07:25] ---**
She was tired to begin with,
not to mention all the fighting.
**[07:31] ---**
What do you mean?
**[07:33] ---**
To get straight to the point, Shido,
you have already died.
**[07:40] ---**
Huh?
**[07:41] ---**
To be precise, you should be dead.
**[07:45] ---**
No, I suppose I should say
it's possible you died.
**[07:51] ---**
All right, Kurumi. I came as promised.
**[07:54] ---**
This morning, I noticed something:
You've changed a bit, Shido.
**[08:00] ---**
Eh?
**[08:02] ---**
You look like you've matured.
**[08:05] ---**
Though, I suppose it's expected with all
the carnage you've lived through.
**[08:11] ---**
D-Don't make fun.
**[08:14] ---**
Anyway, what's this condition of yours
for sealing your Spirit power?
**[08:21] ---**
Okay, okay. I'll tell you.
**[08:25] ---**
I...
**[08:42] ---**
Shido!
**[08:48] ---**
--Shido!
--Shido!
**[08:55] ---**
Hey, don't interfere.
**[08:58] ---**
If anyone, I think we're
the ones interfering.
**[09:02] ---**
Wh-What's with these guys?!
**[09:05] ---**
Confusion. Who are you?!
**[09:10] ---**
Metatron!
**[09:16] ---**
Get lost!
**[09:25] ---**
Zaphkiel!
**[09:36] ---**
It's over!
**[09:42] ---**
No!
**[09:51] ---**
Shido!
**[10:11] ---**
Here you go, me.
**[10:16] ---**
Zaphkiel, Daletto!
**[10:22] ---**
Are you all right, me?
**[10:26] ---**
Yes.
**[10:36] ---**
That's...?
**[10:37] ---**
Tohka and the others fighting.
**[10:41] ---**
They've gone inverse, haven't they?
**[10:44] ---**
Inverse...
**[10:47] ---**
It's no surprise, with Shido
killed before their very eyes...
**[10:53] ---**
--Me.
--Me.
**[10:56] ---**
That's...
**[10:58] ---**
Yes, yes. We barely made it out.
**[11:02] ---**
I couldn't leave him behind.
**[11:08] ---**
Daletto.
**[11:15] ---**
Shido! Shido!
**[11:20] ---**
As I thought, it's no use.
**[11:23] ---**
Daletto's bullet reverses time,
**[11:26] ---**
but it can't bring back
a life that is lost.
**[11:31] ---**
Have I... failed?
**[11:36] ---**
I failed Shido, and failed at erasing
the Spirit of Origin, too?
**[11:57] ---**
Shido...
**[12:13] ---**
Huh?!
**[12:16] ---**
Z-Zaphkiel!
**[12:21] ---**
What's going on?
My sixth bullet, Vav, is restored?
**[12:27] ---**
Why? Vav sends a mind into the past.
**[12:32] ---**
But it was broken during
the fight with Kotori...
**[12:36] ---**
Ever since, we haven't
been able to use it!
**[12:41] ---**
Could it be...?!
**[12:44] ---**
Huh? I don't follow.
**[12:47] ---**
After my fight with Kotori,
but before I had left,
**[12:52] ---**
I gave you a kiss as thanks for saving me.
**[13:00] ---**
When that happened, I believe
my sixth bullet, Vav, was sealed.
**[13:06] ---**
In other words...
**[13:08] ---**
Though not fully,
**[13:10] ---**
it was at that point
that I opened my heart to you, Shido.
**[13:19] ---**
I was unable to use Vav
not because Zaphkiel was broken,
**[13:27] ---**
but because part of my Spirit power
had been sealed by that kiss.
**[13:33] ---**
Just now, by kissing him again,
has that power returned to me?
**[13:41] ---**
Me's... Please die for Shido's sake.
**[13:49] ---**
Yes, yes. With pleasure.
**[13:53] ---**
Our lives are fleeting anyway.
**[13:56] ---**
Use us to your heart's content.
**[14:00] ---**
If it means saving Shido...
**[14:04] ---**
...I'll gladly visit the other side.
**[14:08] ---**
You, being me...
**[14:11] ---**
...should know we wouldn't refuse.
**[14:18] ---**
Then, I ask that you come with me
on an endless journey of death.
**[14:28] ---**
Zaphkiel, Vav.
**[14:39] ---**
"Tengu City"
"February 8 Thursday"
**[14:41] ---**
Seems like it worked.
**[14:46] ---**
And so, from February 8th till today,
**[14:49] ---**
we've been protecting you, Shido,
without your knowledge.
**[14:56] ---**
The first attack was thwarted
thanks to help from Mana.
**[15:08] ---**
--Two hundred and four.
--Huh?
**[15:10] ---**
That's how many times since February 8th
you've fallen into DEM's hands.
**[15:19] ---**
On the morning of February 10,
they even attacked you at home.
**[15:26] ---**
And many more times, over and over.
**[15:31] ---**
Each time, I've kissed you to regain Vav
**[15:36] ---**
and send my mind into the past.
**[15:39] ---**
It has strained my heart.
**[15:42] ---**
Repeating the same days so many times
has pushed my psyche to the limits.
**[15:51] ---**
So, Shido...
**[15:54] ---**
For now, please allow me to rest.
**[16:01] ---**
Why didn't you just
devour me at the start?
**[16:05] ---**
I mean, that's way easier for you
than repeating everything 204 times.
**[16:13] ---**
Please don't ask something so thoughtless.
**[16:17] ---**
My feelings... for you.
**[16:32] ---**
It sounds like you enjoyed your little
chat while I was busy sleeping, me.
**[16:41] ---**
I'm sorry about that, Shido.
**[16:46] ---**
This younger "me" is being foolish.
**[16:50] ---**
Kurumi!
**[16:52] ---**
Please don't get me wrong.
**[16:56] ---**
I only helped you so I don't lose all
the Spirit power you've sealed thus far.
**[17:04] ---**
Y-Yeah. I get it.
**[17:08] ---**
Let's leave it at that for today.
Until next time.
**[17:14] ---**
Hey, Kurumi!
**[17:29] ---**
Kurumi...
**[17:41] ---**
You said things you shouldn't have, me.
**[17:46] ---**
If I may, I fail to see
what the problem is.
**[17:51] ---**
My resolve--my hardship has been
anything but ordinary.
**[17:58] ---**
It's enough to fall asleep in front
of Shido, albeit for a moment.
**[18:05] ---**
That being the case,
who can fault me for telling him?!
**[18:10] ---**
And besides, given all the times
I've saved Shido,
**[18:15] ---**
surely he holds feelings
of gratitude towards me!
**[18:20] ---**
What bad could come of it?!
**[18:25] ---**
He might get the wrong idea.
**[18:29] ---**
Huh?
**[18:30] ---**
It might seem like he's touched
my heart or something!
**[18:40] ---**
You're right, I suppose so!
**[18:43] ---**
It feels like you're mocking me.
**[18:47] ---**
So, what should we do now?
**[18:50] ---**
Even if we got through today,
we don't have much time.
**[18:55] ---**
DEM Industries will attack again shortly.
**[19:00] ---**
I only have so much energy
and strength. At this rate...
**[19:07] ---**
I'm afraid you're right.
**[19:09] ---**
Troubled, are we, Kurumi?
**[19:17] ---**
Phantom...
**[19:18] ---**
Not a very warm welcome.
I only came to give some advice.
**[19:24] ---**
Welcome *you*? You best think twice
before making jokes.
**[19:30] ---**
So cold. Haven't I helped you by
providing information all those times?
**[19:36] ---**
Wasn't I the one who told you
about Shido Itsuka?
**[19:42] ---**
Ah, I see. You know, don't you?
**[19:48] ---**
That's too bad. I really did
come to give you advice.
**[20:00] ---**
Zaphkiel, Zayin!
**[20:15] ---**
Whoops, I let my guard down.
**[20:18] ---**
So, this is your true form, is it?
**[20:24] ---**
Yes. I didn't expect to be stripped of
my temporary form so easily.
**[20:32] ---**
That's Kurumi for you.
**[20:35] ---**
Ms. Murasame...
**[20:40] ---**
Is that how it is?
**[20:43] ---**
Yes, yes, it's all falling into place!
**[20:47] ---**
Me's!
**[21:00] ---**
There's no hell deep enough
for the likes of you.
**[21:10] ---**
--Shido!
--Relief, Shido!
**[21:13] ---**
Shido, you worried us!
**[21:15] ---**
Yeah, sorry.
**[21:17] ---**
But it's okay, I'm all right. Don't worry.
**[21:22] ---**
Kotori, can we locate Kurumi?
**[21:25] ---**
Well, Reine?
**[21:27] ---**
No. She's missing at the moment.
I'll keep searching.
**[21:33] ---**
Yeah, please do.
**[21:35] ---**
Guys, we need to talk.
**[21:38] ---**
About all that's happened...
and everything Kurumi's done for me.
**[21:45] ---**
I need everyone's help!
**[21:47] ---**
This time, it's my turn to save her!
