**[00:35] ---**
Good morning.
**[00:37] ---**
It's almost noon.
**[00:38] ---**
It's my day off. Give me a break.
**[00:41] ---**
What is that?
**[00:43] ---**
Someone from the society just brought it for you.
**[00:47] ---**
For me?
**[00:48] ---**
Yes. Why did you have it sent here?
**[00:52] ---**
Don't you have your own house?
**[00:54] ---**
I feel so comfortable living here. I've got all my lifelines, too.
**[01:00] ---**
What is it? What is it?
**[01:03] ---**
Mind your manners, Rose.
**[01:07] ---**
Let's open it.
**[01:12] ---**
"Lost Precious Appraisal Request."
**[01:15] ---**
I think I accepted this recently.
**[01:18] ---**
You can appraise them?
**[01:20] ---**
I don't usually do it. It's a hassle.
**[01:24] ---**
The Japanese branch is still recovering and is understaffed.
**[01:28] ---**
I accepted this because I thought it'd be a chance to appeal the Seven Tails.
**[01:31] ---**
I was going to appraise it there, but someone at the office must have sent it here by mistake.
**[01:38] ---**
What do you think?
**[01:40] ---**
I can have it sent back if it bothers you.
**[01:43] ---**
It's fine.
**[01:44] ---**
There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it.
**[01:47] ---**
Really? Then I'll tear this open.
**[01:53] ---**
It's a painting.
**[02:04] ---**
Yes?
**[02:05] ---**
Uh, Ryuji-kun...
**[02:07] ---**
Ryuji.
***SIGN*** "Kisaragi Ryuji"

**[03:44] ---**
What are you two doing here?
**[03:46] ---**
I happened by this place while taking a walk.
**[03:51] ---**
We didn't really get to talk last time, so I came to see you.
**[03:56] ---**
I see.
**[04:01] ---**
Um, here. I made you some cookies.
**[04:06] ---**
Thanks.
**[04:07] ---**
I made cupcakes with my mother.
**[04:11] ---**
They're the failures, so you can have them.
**[04:14] ---**
Thanks.
**[04:16] ---**
You must be getting along with your parents.
**[04:19] ---**
Both my father and mother are kind to me.
**[04:22] ---**
It's good to have a family.
**[04:24] ---**
That's great.
**[04:25] ---**
I'll make some tea. Come in.
**[04:30] ---**
Ai, Misaki.
**[04:32] ---**
Welcome. You two are working hard even though it's the weekend.
**[04:38] ---**
They brought snacks. Let's eat them together.
**[04:43] ---**
Thank you.
**[04:44] ---**
You're welcome.
**[04:47] ---**
What is this?
**[04:49] ---**
It's a Lost Precious.
**[04:52] ---**
I'm supposed to appraise it.
**[04:56] ---**
We can take our time looking into it later.
**[05:01] ---**
This is delicious.
**[05:02] ---**
They're really well made.
**[05:04] ---**
Ryuji, say "aah."
**[05:07] ---**
I can feed myself.
**[05:09] ---**
No.
**[05:18] ---**
It's my turn.
**[05:24] ---**
These really are good.
**[05:26] ---**
Thank you.
**[05:38] ---**
Liar?
**[05:40] ---**
What is that?
**[05:44] ---**
It means one who tells lies, doesn't it?
**[05:47] ---**
Could it be an English speaking city?
**[06:01] ---**
Ryuji!
**[06:03] ---**
Ryuji!
**[06:04] ---**
Ryuji-kun!
**[06:05] ---**
Ryuji-kun!
**[06:27] ---**
What is this?
**[06:31] ---**
We seem to have been sucked into that painting.
**[06:44] ---**
I should be in Ryuji-kun's house.
**[06:48] ---**
Is this a dream? Is it?
**[06:51] ---**
No, this is reality.
**[06:53] ---**
We've been dragged into that painting.
**[06:59] ---**
Lots of weird things happen around me and Ryuji. Sorry about that.
**[07:06] ---**
But we'll find our way home. Just trust me.
**[07:11] ---**
Okay.
**[07:13] ---**
It's okay. Ryuji will save us.
**[07:17] ---**
Yeah.
**[07:19] ---**
We should find an exit.
**[08:33] ---**
"Kisaragi Ryuji"
**[08:34] ---**
"No Entry"
**[08:38] ---**
Misaki-chan.
**[08:40] ---**
Let's go.
**[08:41] ---**
Okay.
**[08:44] ---**
Did you find anything?
**[08:45] ---**
No.
**[08:47] ---**
There's no one here. It's a ghost town.
**[08:50] ---**
While walking around, I thought this place seemed really familiar.
**[08:57] ---**
That movie we saw the other day.
**[09:00] ---**
Oh, that?
**[09:01] ---**
What did you watch?
**[09:03] ---**
One of those horror movies.
**[09:05] ---**
A bunch of girls are chased around an American city by a murderer.
**[09:10] ---**
A murderer?
**[09:12] ---**
Its low budget makes it better. The murderer is just a guy in a costume with an axe.
**[09:19] ---**
What's wrong?
**[09:30] ---**
Just like that.
**[09:43] ---**
Watch out!
**[09:58] ---**
It didn't work. Let's run.
**[10:06] ---**
Hide in there.
**[10:07] ---**
It's locked.
**[10:08] ---**
What? It was open a second ago.
**[10:15] ---**
Eriko, that house!
**[10:40] ---**
Ryuji.
**[10:42] ---**
Ryuji-kun.
**[10:43] ---**
Ryuji.
**[10:45] ---**
Hurry up and save us!
**[10:58] ---**
Damn it!
**[11:21] ---**
Why won't it work?
**[11:23] ---**
I can think of plenty of reasons.
**[11:26] ---**
Bianca! When did you get here?
**[11:28] ---**
No need to thank me.
**[11:30] ---**
We help each other when we're in trouble.
**[11:32] ---**
One for all, all for me.
**[11:36] ---**
I don't think that's what you mean.
**[11:38] ---**
It's a type of Cursed Precious.
**[11:40] ---**
It seems to have some special conditions.
**[11:47] ---**
This place is empty, too.
**[11:50] ---**
Why are the lights on?
**[11:52] ---**
Who knows.
**[11:53] ---**
I wish we had some weapons.
**[11:55] ---**
I can handle a gun.
**[11:58] ---**
We need to come up with a way to defend ourselves against him.
**[12:04] ---**
Eriko.
**[12:06] ---**
There are stairs.
**[12:12] ---**
I know we've already come this far, but...
**[12:14] ---**
in horror films, nothing good comes from going to the basement.
**[12:21] ---**
Then why are we going?
**[12:23] ---**
Because we might find some information.
**[12:27] ---**
If it's a horror film, anyway.
**[12:30] ---**
Um, is this a dream? Is this reality?
**[12:35] ---**
Are we inside a horror film?
**[12:37] ---**
Just hope we find a happy ending.
**[12:49] ---**
What are these photos?
**[12:56] ---**
This place is creepy and gross.
**[12:59] ---**
But they key to our escape is probably in this room. Let's find it.
**[13:14] ---**
I can't take any more of this.
**[13:27] ---**
What is...
**[13:30] ---**
What is your most precious memory?
**[13:35] ---**
Tell me your most precious memory.
**[13:39] ---**
My most precious memory...
**[13:45] ---**
Tell me!
**[13:51] ---**
When I was a child, my pet...
**[14:03] ---**
Are you okay, Misaki-chan?
**[14:09] ---**
Its activity is low. Rather than attacking, it traps those who come near.
**[14:17] ---**
Judging from the situation, it targets those with two X chromosomes, or women.
**[14:25] ---**
I hope everyone's all right.
**[14:27] ---**
I don't know, but considering they're inside the canvas...
**[14:32] ---**
there's a good chance Lost Preciouses are rendered useless.
**[14:36] ---**
Just like your knife.
**[14:39] ---**
What can I do?
**[14:43] ---**
What's going on?
**[14:44] ---**
If we lie to that mirror, we'll end up like the girls in the photographs.
**[14:51] ---**
I...
**[14:53] ---**
I didn't lie.
**[15:01] ---**
We're next.
**[15:03] ---**
What happens if we turn into photos?
**[15:07] ---**
We'll probably never be able to leave.
**[15:10] ---**
I won't be able to see Ryuji.
**[15:14] ---**
I don't want that.
**[15:16] ---**
Neither do I.
**[15:21] ---**
Answer me.
**[15:24] ---**
Answer me.
**[15:28] ---**
Tell him what you think from the bottom of your heart.
**[15:36] ---**
Who would you die for?
**[15:39] ---**
What do you regret most?
**[15:43] ---**
What is your most precious memory?
**[15:46] ---**
Tell me. Tell me. Tell me.
**[15:51] ---**
Who would you die for?
**[15:57] ---**
Ryuji.
**[15:59] ---**
Why?
**[16:01] ---**
"Why?"
**[16:03] ---**
I have no reason. I would die for Ryuji any time.
**[16:08] ---**
Tell me. What do you regret most?
**[16:18] ---**
Three years ago when I took Ryuji-kun to an antique store.
**[16:23] ---**
He lost control when he was possessed by a Cursed Precious.
**[16:33] ---**
I was slightly injured.
**[16:37] ---**
He was the one who was hurt, though. He worried about it for a long time.
**[16:43] ---**
That's my greatest regret, but we're both fine now.
**[16:49] ---**
We won't be bound by Cursed Preciouses forever, unlike you!
**[16:54] ---**
What is your most precious memory?
**[16:59] ---**
Tell him.
**[17:00] ---**
You have to tell him.
**[17:04] ---**
"Entrance Ceremony"
**[17:18] ---**
Are you okay?
**[17:39] ---**
Ryuji-kun...
**[17:42] ---**
Misaki, tell him so we can go home.
**[17:53] ---**
What is your most precious memory?
**[18:03] ---**
The time I met Ryuji-kun.
**[18:10] ---**
Answer me.
**[18:12] ---**
Ask your question.
**[18:14] ---**
Who do you love most?
**[18:16] ---**
Ryuji!
**[18:17] ---**
Ryuji, Ryuji, Ryuji...
**[18:22] ---**
Well, we already knew that.
**[18:24] ---**
I love Ryuji.
**[18:28] ---**
You're lying!
**[18:34] ---**
You're lying. You're lying.
**[18:36] ---**
There's no way a woman would tell the truth.
**[18:39] ---**
All women are liars!
**[18:43] ---**
Watch out!
**[18:46] ---**
Let's run.
**[18:53] ---**
When the painting attempts to capture a woman...
**[18:56] ---**
in other words, when it comes in contact with the outside world...
**[19:00] ---**
we may have an opportunity to bring them back.
**[19:04] ---**
You'll have your chance when the painting tries to take me.
**[19:10] ---**
I'm sorry. I'll save you.
**[19:18] ---**
Rose.
**[19:29] ---**
Ryuji.
**[19:31] ---**
Ryuji-kun.
**[19:32] ---**
Bianca?
**[19:34] ---**
There it is.
**[19:36] ---**
Ryuji.
**[19:37] ---**
Ryuji-kun.
**[19:38] ---**
Ryuji.
**[19:39] ---**
Their voices.
**[19:40] ---**
Do it.
**[20:22] ---**
Ryuji.
**[20:24] ---**
Ryuji, Ryuji, Ryuji.
**[20:27] ---**
Rose.
**[20:40] ---**
This was painted by a man imprisoned after he was betrayed by his lover.
**[20:46] ---**
That explains why he was obsessed with lies.
**[20:49] ---**
That's why the truth was the key to escaping.
**[20:52] ---**
I didn't think much of it when I accepted, but it was pretty dangerous.
**[20:57] ---**
I'm glad we had Ryuji-kun.
**[20:59] ---**
Don't ignore me.
**[21:02] ---**
You owe me for this one.
**[21:06] ---**
Hey.
**[21:09] ---**
If you hadn't told the truth, we wouldn't have escaped from that room.
**[21:14] ---**
Eat this.
**[21:15] ---**
Thank you.
**[21:17] ---**
Why do you keep talking about the truth?
**[21:24] ---**
Who knows?
**[21:26] ---**
It's a secret.
**[21:29] ---**
It means we all love you, Ryuji.
**[21:32] ---**
What a picturesque happy ending.
**[21:36] ---**
But if it's a horror film, something should happen now.
**[21:42] ---**
Yeah, right.
***SIGN*** Next episode "Adult's Ritual"
**[23:25] ---**
I'm Sapphie. I'm finally making my appearance at the end of the series.
**[23:29] ---**
Actually, Dragon Crisis is just getting started.
**[23:32] ---**
My mature romance will blow away the romantic comedy you've been watching.
**[23:37] ---**
The object of my love is him.
