[00:02] Reine
    A date with me?
[00:06] Reine
    I'm surprised.
[00:08] Reine
    Where did that come from, Shin?
[00:10] Shido
    Is that a no?
[00:11] Shido
    We should still have a whole day
    before DEM's assault.
[00:15] Reine
    That's true, but there's
    no need to train for that, right?
[00:20] Shido
    This isn't for training!
[00:23] Shido
    With the final battle drawing near,
[00:27] Shido
    that's all the more reason
    I want to invite you on a date.
[00:30] Reine
    Do the others know?
[00:33] Shido
    I haven't told them.
[00:35] Reine
    Why me?
[00:38] Shido
    You don't want to?
[00:40] Reine
    I haven't said that,
[00:41] Reine
    but if you wanted to go on a date with someone,
[00:45] Reine
    then you should have other options.
[00:47] Shido
    That won't do.
[00:49] Shido
    I want to go on a date with you, Reine.
[00:55] Reine
    I'll make some time.
[00:57] Reine
    Where should we go?
[02:33] Kotori
    I see.
[02:35] Shido
    Reine is your best friend.
[02:39] Shido
    I'm sure you're shocked to hear
    all of this so suddenly, but...
[02:45] Kotori
    Thank you.
[02:47] Kotori
    I'm sure it was hard for you, too.
[02:49] Kotori
    Thank you for telling me.
[02:51] Shido
    Kotori...
[02:52] Maria
    Well then, let's come up with
    a strategy without Reine noticing.
[02:58] Shido
    Yeah, let's do that.
[03:00] Kotori
    To start, we'll have to think of
    what to do for Reine's date by morning,
[03:06] Kotori
    all while simultaneously
    preparing our strategies against DEM.
[03:11] Shido
    That's true, also...
[03:14] Kotori
    Deal with the other Spirits?
[03:16] Shido
    Yeah.
[03:17] Shido
    Reine was a reliable older sister
    they all could trust.
[03:22] Shido
    When they learn that she betrayed them...
[03:27] Kotori
    True.
[03:28] Kotori
    Though we'll need them to get over that.

[03:33] Shido
    Origami?
[03:37] Origami
    I heard what's going on.
[03:39] Shido
    Huh?
[03:40] Origami
    I've informed all the Spirits, too.
[03:42] Origami
    We'll help you compose your date plan.
[03:45] Shido
    H-Hold on a moment.
[03:47] Shido
    You heard?
[03:49] Shido
    How did you...?
[03:52] Kotori
    Shido, your second button.
[03:54] Shido
    Huh?
[03:55] Shido
    Ah!
[03:58] Tohka
    I understand what's going on!
[04:00] Yoshino
    I heard the details from Origami.
[04:03] Natsumi
    That was a surprise,
    but there's no time to be depressed.
[04:07] Nia
    Now these are some hot developments
    happening without my knowledge!
[04:11] Nia
    I kind of like this stuff!
[04:14] Kaguya
    Impressive, Reine Murasame!
[04:16] Kaguya
    You managed to deceive Kaguya Yamai!
[04:19] Yuzuru
    Petition. Please let us help you, too.
[04:23] Kotori
    All right.
[04:25] Kotori
    Then assemble in the briefing room.
[04:27] Kotori
    Go one at a time so Reine
    doesn't catch on if you run into her.
[04:32] Shido
    Kotori, could you give me a bit of time?
[04:35] Kotori
    Huh?
[04:36] Shido
    There's something I have to do.
[04:43] Shido
    I want to talk.
[04:45] Shido
    You're there, right, Kurumi?
[04:54] Shido
    You, huh?
[04:56] Kurumi
    My, my, this is unusual.
[04:59] Kurumi
    You're actually summoning me for once.
[05:03] Shido
    Are you the only one here right now?
[05:06] Shido
    Is the real Kurumi listening
    into this conversation?
[05:09] Kurumi
    You ask quite the odd question.
[05:11] Kurumi
    None of the other clones
    or the real me are here.
[05:17] Kurumi
    If you want to discuss something
    you don't want the real me to hear,
[05:21] Kurumi
    then you're safe on that front.
[05:25] Shido
    I see.
[05:27] Shido
    I don't know if what I'm about to tell you
    is safe to pass on to the real Kurumi.
[05:34] Shido
    So could you listen
    and make that decision for me?
[05:39] Shido
    On February 20th, the real Kurumi
[05:43] Shido
    will die.
[05:46] Kurumi
    You speak like you've actually seen it happen.
[05:49] Shido
    Yeah, your guess is correct.
[05:52] Kurumi
    Who are you suggesting
    managed to take me down?
[05:56] Kurumi
    Even if I'm about to face Ellen Mathers,
[05:59] Kurumi
    I won't go down that easily, you know.
[06:04] Shido
    It was Mio Takamiya.
[06:08] Shido
    The Spirit of Origin will kill Kurumi.
[06:11] Shido
    Mio suddenly appeared from within
    Kurumi on the future battlefield.
[06:16] Shido
    I believe Mio is already inside of Kurumi.
[06:21] Kurumi
    So that's what happens.
[06:24] Kurumi
    I'm grateful.
[06:26] Kurumi
    You're right, this isn't information
    to be handled carelessly.
[06:31] Shido
    So?
[06:32] Shido
    Do you think you can convey this
    to Kurumi without Mio catching wind of it?
[06:37] Kurumi
    Most likely, yes.
[06:38] Kurumi
    Though, the real problem is
    what to do about it afterwards.
[06:44] Shido
    Right.
[06:45] Shido
    I hope there's something
    I can do to help, but...
[06:49] Kurumi
    Please don't make such a sad face.
[06:53] Kurumi
    I know this is a desperate situation,
[06:57] Kurumi
    but thanks to you I now have options.
[07:04] Kurumi
    Shido, was I able to fulfill
    my duty in the future?
[07:11] Shido
    Yeah, in the coolest way possible.
[07:16] Kurumi
    Is that so?
[07:33] Tohka
    R-Reine?! What are you doing?!
[07:36] Reine
    Working.
[07:38] Reine
    I figured I would take care of
    tomorrow's work, too.
[07:42] Reine
    I finally finished up.
[07:43] Tohka
    I see!
[07:45] Tohka
    Good work, then!
[07:46] Reine
    And what are you up to at this hour, Tohka?
[07:49] Tohka
    W-Well, um, uh...
[07:52] Reine
    If you want a late-night snack,
[07:54] Reine
    you should go to the cafeteria
    or the break area.
[07:57] Reine
    Though go easy on the snacks,
    given how late it is.
[08:01] Reine
    And don't forget to
    brush your teeth before bed.
[08:04] Tohka
    Y-Yes, I'll be careful.
[08:07] Reine
    I understand why you can't sleep,
[08:09] Reine
    but make sure to get rest.
[08:12] Reine
    We have to do everything we can
    to protect Shin from DEM, after all.
[08:18] Tohka
    Reine.
[08:20] Reine
    Hmm?
[08:21] Tohka
    Reine... do you like Shido?
[08:24] Reine
    Huh?
[08:26] Reine
    What do you mean?
[08:27] Tohka
    Just answer the question. Please.
[08:31] Reine
    Yeah, I like him.
[08:35] Tohka
    I see. Yeah. Me, too!
[08:47] Reine
    No, I'm overthinking it.
[08:52] Sign
    Amamiya Station
[08:53] Kotori
    Hello, Shido.
[08:54] Kotori
    How's the bone conduction receiver working?
[08:57] Shido
    I can hear you clearly.
[08:58] Shido
    Though it is slightly different than usual.
[09:01] Kotori
    Reine would catch on
    if we used the usual transceiver.
[09:04] Kotori
    We won't have to worry about
    her noticing with this.
[09:07] Kotori
    She should be arriving soon, so get ready.
[09:10] Shido
    All right.
[09:11] Reine
    Hey, did I keep you waiting?
[09:16] Shido
    R-Reine?!
[09:33] Kotori
    It's finally starting.
[09:36] Kotori
    Now, let our date begin.
[09:49] Shizaki
    Honestly, I still can't believe it.
[09:52] Shizaki
    Our Reine is Phantom?
[09:55] Kotori
    I feel the same way.
[09:57] Kotori
    But we have to accept the facts.
[10:01] Nia
    Still, it's not something
    to be pessimistic about.
[10:03] Nia
    According to the boy, the friendship
    she feels toward us is the real deal, too.
[10:09] Kotori
    Exactly.
[10:11] Kotori
    So in short, as long as Shido can make
    Reine fall for him and seal her power,
[10:15] Kotori
    then all of this will be resolved peacefully.
[10:17] Reine
    What's the matter, Shin?
[10:20] Reine
    Did I shock you that much?
[10:22] Shido
    Oh, no, um...
SIGN    1) I'm sorry, I was captivated by you.
SIGN    2) That's not your usual hairstyle, is it? It's lovely.
SIGN    3) What'll it take to let me strip that outfit off of you?
[10:26] Kotori
    Everyone, choices!
[10:28] Spirits
    Yeah!
[10:31] Kotori
    1, huh?
[10:33] Kotori
    That's most reasonable.
[10:35] Yoshino
    Yes.
[10:36] Yoshino
    I think going silent
    would only make her anxious.
[10:39] Yoshino
    But if he says that, she'll be happy.
[10:42] Natsumi
    Huh? Such consideration! Are you a goddess?
[10:46] Natsumi
    What does it say about me
    that I chose the other
[10:49] Natsumi
    because I think we should wait and see for now.
[10:51] Tohka
    Yes, I think Reine
    will approve of this one, too!
[10:55] Mukuro
    Hmm. I don't think 2 is a bad choice either.
[11:00] Mukuro
    Well, whatever.
[11:01] Kaguya
    Indeed!
[11:03] Kaguya
    God dwells in the details.
[11:05] Kaguya
    It's important to notice
    the minor changes, but...
[11:08] Yuzuru
    Addendum. Depending on the person,
[11:11] Yuzuru
    some might take it as suggesting
    their usual hairstyle isn't that great.
[11:15] Yuzuru
    I think we should play it safe
    and wait and see.
[11:19] Kotori
    So, what do you three think?
[11:22] Nia
    No, it's clearly 3 here!
[11:25] Nia
    Hearing such a surprising comeback
    from such an innocent young boy
[11:28] Nia
    would really turn a lady on!
[11:30] Miku
    Right!
[11:32] Miku
    Reine is a mature woman, too,
[11:34] Miku
    so she'll appreciate wit like that.
[11:38] Kotori
    Listen...
[11:40] Kotori
    our future is riding on this,
    so could you please take this seriously?
[11:44] Origiami
    We know.
[11:46] Origiami
    That's why we chose the line that
    would make us the happiest to hear.
[11:52] Kotori
    Shido, go with 1.
[11:55] Shido
    Oh, I'm sorry.
[11:57] Shido
    I've never seen you dressed
    like this before, so well...
[12:02] Shido
    I was captivated.
[12:04] Reine
    Hmm?
[12:06] Reine
    I see.
[12:08] Reine
    Hmm, is that so?
[12:11] Reine
    Thank you.
[12:12] Reine
    Your outfit is wonderful, too.
[12:14] Shido
    Th-Thank you.
[12:17] Reine
    Now, where are we going today?
[12:20] Reine
    It looks like you brought a lot of luggage?
[12:22] Shido
    That's still a secret for now.
[12:24] Shido
    I want to surprise you.
[12:26] Shido
    Will you trust me and follow along?
[12:29] Reine
    Yes, of course.
[12:31] Reine
    Shall we go, then?
[12:33] Shido
    What's the matter?
[12:35] Reine
    This is technically a date, right?
[12:38] Shido
    Yes, it is. No technically about it.
[12:42] Reine
    Hmm, in that case...
[12:55] Reine
    Shall we go?
[12:57] Shido
    Yes.
[13:00] Kotori
    Her affection rating...
    is a strange wave pattern.
[13:04] Kotori
    It looks like she holds enough affection
    for us to be able to seal her at any moment,
[13:08] Kotori
    but it's not triggering
    the possibility to seal her.
[13:11] Minowa
    It's like she holds deep affection for him,
[13:14] Minowa
    but she's keeping herself at a distance.
[13:16] Minowa
    Almost like she's affectionately
    watching over him from the sidelines
[13:18] Minowa
    while everyone else
    gets to be on stage with him.
[13:21] Nia
    One could also say it's like a mother?
[13:24] Kotori
    I see, that's oddly well put.
[13:27] Kotori
    Either way, it doesn't change the fact
    she'll be a difficult target.
[13:35] Reine
    This is...
[13:36] Shizaki
    Reine's affection is climbing!
[13:39] Kawagoe
    Looks like your strategy
    is working, Commander!
[13:42] Kotori
    It wasn't solely my idea.
[13:44] Kotori
    It's the result of all of us Spirits
    ironing out a plan until late last night.
[13:49] Mikimoto
    A day trip to a hot springs inn on the weekend?
[13:52] Mikimoto
    This really is an attractive choice.
[13:55] Kawagoe
    Analyst Murasame is the one
    who works the most in Fraxinus, too.
[14:00] Kawagoe
    She also works as a teacher
    at Raizen High on top of that.
[14:04] Kotori
    She's also been working to revive
    Shinji Takamiya for decades as well.
[14:11] Kotori
    Even if she is a Spirit, it's only
    natural that's she built up fatigue.
[14:15] Miku
    Reine always does have bags under her eyes.
[14:19] Miku
    I thought she must be struggling with her work.
[14:22] Nia
    I'm sure she doesn't get
    much sleep every night.
[14:26] Nia
    Her mind and body should both
    be completely exhausted.
[14:30] Kotori
    So what Reine needs is relaxation!
[14:34] Kotori
    She can use the various relaxation services
[14:36] Kotori
    to relieve her pent up weariness and fatigue!
[14:42] Reine
    Oh!
SIGN    1) Take it easy and stretch out in the large bath
SIGN    2) Relax in the private outdoor bath
SIGN    3) Get a refreshing massage
[14:46] Kotori
    Everyone, choices!
[14:48] Spirits
    Yeah!
[14:52] Kotori
    Hmm, yeah, 2.
[14:54] Tohka
    Yes, though I don't feel good about Reine
    and Shido taking a bath alone together.
[15:02] Yoshino
    Yes.
[15:03] Yoshino
    I think they both need to
    be able to talk a lot.
[15:07] Origami
    It's okay. I'm calm. I'm calm. I'm calm.
[15:12] Natsumi
    Huh? Why did you need to say that thrice?
[15:15] Origami
    Besides, I've been alone
    in the bath with Shido, too.
[15:20] Origami
    I shouldn't be losing my calm
    over something like this.
[15:24] Tohka
    Hold on!
[15:25] Tohka
    That was when you were lying in wait
    to ambush him, wasn't it?!
[15:29] Kaguya
    You can't leave us Yamai sisters out
    when it comes to bathing.
[15:32] Yuzuru
    Affirmative.
[15:34] Yuzuru
    Sandwiching Shido between me
    and Kaguya was a nice memory.
[15:39] Miku
    They should be spending
    some time naked together
[15:42] Miku
    since they're at a hot springs inn!
[15:44] Miku
    Right in a bath tub about this big!
[15:47] Miku
    Both Darling and Reine packed in tight!
[15:50] Miku
    It's the world's greatest packed lunch!
[15:56] Kotori
    Shido, go with 2.
[15:58] Shido
    Roger.
[16:08] Reine
    Shin, can I come in?
[16:11] Shido
    Oh, yes, go ahead.
[16:15] Shido
    Wha?!
[16:16] Mikimoto
    Wha?!
[16:18] Kawagoe
    Whoa!
[16:19] Mikimoto
    What is the meaning of this?!
[16:22] Kawagoe
    I can't see Analyst Murasame's na—
[16:23] Kawagoe
    No, I can't see our important conquest screen!
[16:26] Miku
    Dear god! Bring it back at once!
[16:31] Maria
    Our objective is to make
    the Spirit fall for him.
[16:34] Maria
    I believe it best to avoid doing things
[16:36] Maria
    Reine would find unpleasant
    after we've sealed her spirit power.
[16:40] Three
    No!
[16:45] Kotori
    Kannazuki, you're still calm.
[16:48] Kannazuki
    Yes.
[16:49] Kannazuki
    Because I don't have
    much interest in big breasts.
[16:54] Kotori
    That so?
[16:59] Reine
    We're all alone, so you don't mind, right?
[17:02] Shido
    N-No...
[17:05] Shido
    Those are quite something...
[17:11] Shido
    Um, Reine,
[17:14] Shido
    how long have you been with Ratatoskr?
[17:16] Reine
    It was around five or six years ago?
[17:19] Reine
    It was around the same time
    Kotori became the commander.
[17:23] Shido
    I see.
[17:25] Shido
    You know, thank you.
[17:28] Reine
    For what?
[17:29] Shido
    Well, that means you've been
    supporting Kotori all this time.
[17:35] Reine
    I haven't done anything that important.
[17:38] Reine
    I'm sure she would be a great
    commander even without me.
[17:43] Shido
    Well, I won't deny that Kotori is talented,
    but what did you do before then?
[17:50] Reine
    I was your typical student.
[17:52] Reine
    My thesis got recognition,
    so I was scouted for Ratatoskr.
[18:00] Shido
    Was there anyone you fell in love with?
[18:06] Reine
    There was one person.
[18:13] Shido
    Was that...?
[18:15] Reine
    It's not fair to talk about just me.
[18:19] Reine
    Would you tell me more about yourself, too?
[18:22] Shido
    Huh?
[18:23] Shido
    S-Sure.
[18:25] Reine
    I've been wanting to hear more
    about you for a long time, too.
[18:30] Reine
    Do you remember anything that happened
    before you were taken in by the Itsuka family?
[18:38] Shido
    Honestly, I don't really have
    any clear memories.
[18:43] Shido
    What I do remember...
[18:45] Shido
    is the sensation of being held by warm hands,
[18:47] Shido
    and a sense of loss like those hands
    were leaving me behind.
[18:51] Shido
    I'm sure...
[18:53] Shido
    that must have been my mother.
[18:57] Reine
    Do you resent your mother for abandoning you?
[19:00] Shido
    Huh?
[19:02] Shido
    I don't resent her or anything.
[19:06] Shido
    I'm sure she had her reasons for it.
[19:10] Shido
    I doubt she abandoned me because she wanted to.
[19:14] Shido
    Besides, I remember.
[19:16] Shido
    I remember how kind
    the hands that held me were.
[19:21] Reine
    I see...
[19:32] Shido
    Huh?
[19:34] Reine
    There, there.
[19:37] Shido
    Hey, Reine?!
[19:40] Reine
    A little of this won't hurt, will it?
[19:42] Reine
    Though I may not be able to replace her.
[19:50] Westcott
    Ellen, sorry for the suddenness,
[19:53] Westcott
    but I've decided to speed up our plans.
[19:56] Westcott
    The situation has changed.
[19:58] Westcott
    Rather, it seems it's about to change.
[20:01] Ellen
    What do you mean, Ike?
[20:04] Westcott
    Honestly, I really am fortunate.
[20:08] Westcott
    Never before have I felt like it was destiny
[20:10] Westcott
    that the omniscient Beelzebub
    was the first Demon King I obtained.
[20:16] Ellen
    Meaning you've learned
    some new fact through Beelzebub?
[20:20] Westcott
    Precisely.
[20:22] Westcott
    Apparently we've already suffered
    painful defeat once before.
[20:27] Westcott
    In a future unknown to us.
[20:31] Westcott
    However, this time we can strike first.
[20:35] Westcott
    Start preparing the magic reactor.
[20:38] Westcott
    We'll want absorption charms as well.
[20:42] Ellen
    Then the Spirit of Origin...?
[20:45] Westcott
    Come on, Ellen.
[20:47] Westcott
    Let's change the future as well.
[21:11] Reine
    What is it you wanted to show me, Shin?
[21:15] Shido
    We're almost there.
[21:16] Shido
    I'm sure you'll like it.
[21:21] Shido
    We're here.
[21:22] Shido
    You can open your eyes now.
[21:35] Reine
    This is!
[21:36] Shido
    This is the place I wanted to show you, Reine.
[21:39] Shido
    It's pretty, right?
[21:46] Reine
    Yes, it is pretty.
[21:50] Reine
    Very much so.
