    "Dear Hase-sama...
[00:05] Y
    I've finished unpacking my things,
    and everything is going fine.
[00:13] Y
    Three years ago, I lost my parents
[00:15] Y
    and had to live with relatives.
[00:18] Y
    But now, I've finally taken my first
    step toward real independence.
[00:23] Y
    But there's one problem, I guess...
[00:28] Y
    In this yokai apartment building,
[00:32] Y
    humans and monsters live together."
[00:37] Y
    No, no!
[00:38] Y
    If I write this, he'll think I'm crazy!
[00:41] Gu
    What's bugging you, chirp, Yushi?
[00:44] Gu
    Hey, worry too much,
    and you'll go bald, chirp.
[00:47] Gu
    Be careful, chirp!
[00:49] Gu
    My independent life...
[00:51] Gu
    Chirpity-chirp!

    He's human.

    Human
[02:44] Gi
    You need to eat, Yushi-kun...
[02:46] Gi
    School starts soon, doesn't it?
[02:48] Gi
    You need to eat and build your stamina.
SIGN    Akine Kuga
[02:51] Gi
    Akine Kuga-san. Also human.

    Morning!
[02:59] Gu
    Wow, this smells good!
[03:02] Gu
    Sato-san and Yamada-san, good morning.
[03:05] Gu
    And they're ghosts.

[03:12] Gu
    I'm going on a training trip for my new job.
[03:16] Gu
    I'll be in Hakone for a week.
[03:18] Gu
    Nice, Sato-san.
[03:20] Gu
    That's Soir Cosmetics for you.
[03:22] Gu
    They're willing to spend big.
[03:24] Gu
    He's got a job?
[03:25] Gu
    And with a big company?!
[03:38] Gu
    I can touch them.
[03:42] Gu
    S-So cute...
[03:44] Gu
    But aren't they ghosts, too?
[03:48] Gi
    Wondering why you can touch ghosts?
[03:51] Gi
    This building's grounds are within
    a special barrier that stabilizes
[03:55] Gi
    the souls of the dead.
[03:58] Gi
    That's why you can see and touch
    things that you normally can't.
[04:02] Gi
    There's also a path to another dimension.
[04:05] Gi
    And in some places, several dimensions
    overlap or are out of phase,
[04:09] Gi
    and then...
[04:09] Y
    I... I don't understand any of that.
[04:15] Gu
    So, decide what you're going to do?
[04:19] Gu
    Will you stay here until
    your dorm is repaired?
[04:22] Gu
    Or go back and live with your uncle?
[04:29] Gu
    Yeah, I guess he will.
[04:36] Gu
    I'm staying here. It's only six months.
[04:39] Gu
    I see.
[04:40] Gi
    That's great! Just what I wanted to hear!
[04:44] Gi
    Look! Ruriko-san made you a cake!
[04:47] Y
    Huh? For me?
[04:48] Gu
    Looks delicious!
[04:50] Gu
    Everything Ruriruri makes is delicious!
[04:53] Gi
    Right?
[04:55] Gi
    Yushi-kun, you don't care if
    Ruriko-san is a ghost, right?
[04:58] Y
    Of course not!
[05:00] Y
    No matter what kind of ghost
    she is, I wouldn't care!
[05:03] Gu
    Hear that? Isn't that nice, Ruriruri?

    And so, my high school life began.
[05:18] Gi
    I just saw someone who looked really cool!
[05:21] Gi
    Hey, let's exchange our email addresses!
[05:23] Gu
    So yesterday, my dad said...
[05:26] Y
    That's right...
[05:27] Y
    People call stuff like this normal.
[05:31] Y
    But at my place...
[05:33] Gu
    Why do you look so bored?
[05:37] Gu
    It's your first day at a
    new school! Cheer up!
[05:40] Gu
    I'm Takenaka, by the way. What's up?
[05:43] Y
    R-Right... Hello.
[06:01] Y
    Just six more months!
[06:06] gi
    Welcome back.
[06:07] y
    I'm back.
[06:08] y
    Wait.
[06:15] Gu
    Oh, that's Hanako-san.
[06:18] Y
    Hanako-san?
[06:20] Gu
    She's always in the front hall.
[06:21] Gu
    And she says "goodbye" and "welcome back."
[06:24] Y
    Is that all?
[06:26] Gu
    Yep. That's all.
[06:28] Y
    Don't worry, you'll eventually
    be able to see her, too.
[06:32] Gu
    I will?! And you aren't scared?
[06:35] Gu
    Ghosts and yokai are everywhere!
[06:37] Gi
    Scared?
[06:39] Gu
    We're all friends, and they're fun.
[06:41] Y
    Friends?
[06:43] Gu
    They are like we are.
[06:45] Gu
    In their own way, they are
    trying to live normal lives.
[06:47] Gu
    Some of them are good and some are bad.
[06:50] Gu
    It's just like us.
[06:54] Y
    Just like us... I don't know.
[07:01] Y
    W-Wolf ghost!
[07:03] Gu
    Idiot.
[07:04] Gu
    You're a man. Don't scare so easily.
[07:06] gi
    Welcome back, Akira-san! Cigar!
[07:09] gu
    Been a long time since we
    had a new human resident.
[07:12] gu
    Doesn't he look glum?
[07:15] gu
    This is the new guy, Yushi Inaba-kun.
[07:18] gu
    I'm Akira Fukase, in room 103.
[07:21] gu
    I'm a painter.
[07:22] gu
    This is Cigar.
[07:24] Y
    A painter?
[07:25] Gu
    Yeah, he's an old friend of mine.
[07:29] Y
    Does that mean you're human, Fukase-san?
[07:32] Gu
    Listen up, kid!
[07:34] Gu
    Here, it doesn't mean a damn thing
    whether you're human or not.
[07:38] Gu
    I've lived here ten years,
[07:40] Gu
    without any problems whatsoever.
[07:42] Gu
    Got it?
[07:43] Y
    Y-Yeah...
[07:44] Gu
    Hello there, young man. Having some trouble?
[07:48] Gu
    Seems you're having trouble
    in your relationships.
[07:51] Y
    U-Um...
[07:54] Y
    Who are you?
[07:55] Gu
    Today, I will introduce you
    to something great!
[07:58] Gu
    Look at this.
[08:00] Gu
    A unicorn horn, to drive off wicked
    thoughts and purify your body.
[08:04] Gu
    Carry this with you, and your
    problems will instantly vanish.
[08:11] Gu
    Act now, and I'll give you a discount.
[08:13] Y
    No way! No way! No way! No way!
[08:16] Gu
    Stay away from the new kid.
[08:18] Gi
    Sorry, Yushi-kun... That must've scared you.
[08:22] Gu
    You haven't changed, Antiquary.
[08:25] y
    Antiquary-san?
[08:27] Gu
    Correct.
[08:28] Gu
    If you're after something,
    talk to me whenever you like.
[08:36] Y
    Who are those people with him?
[08:38] Gu
    I think he calls them "automata."
[08:39] Gi
    Huh? I heard they were homunculi.
[08:46] Gu
    While in foreign lands,
[08:47] Gu
    how many times did I dream
    of this delicious food?
[08:50] Gu
    Damn right...
[08:51] Gu
    Thank you, Ruriko!
[08:57] Gi
    That bath was so nice!
[09:06] Gi
    This is the only way to end a bath!
[09:09] Gi
    I feel so refreshed!
[09:11] Gu
    Stop walking around like that, Mariko-chan.
[09:15] Gu
    Oh, my.
[09:16] Gu
    You look beautiful again today.
[09:18] Gi
    You're so honest, Antiquary-san.
[09:21] Gu
    Careful, new kid...
[09:23] Gu
    She might not look it,
    but she's incredibly old.
[09:26] Gi
    Shaddup! Who you callin' old?!
[09:29] Gi
    Oh?
[09:31] Gu
    You're so cute! You're new, aren't you?
[09:35] Gu
    What's your name?
[09:36] Y
    Y-Yushi Inaba!
[09:38] Gi
    I'm Mariko. Nice to meet you.
[09:40] Gi
    I have my reasons for not going to heaven.
[09:43] Y
    You're a ghost?!
[09:44] Gi
    How about I teach you a few things?
[09:48] Gi
    Mariko-san, don't tease him too much.
[09:52] Y
    S-Stop it, please!
[10:02] Y
    Was that too much?
[10:04] Gu
    No, don't worry, Yushi-kun.
[10:10] Gi
    That's right.
[10:11] Gu
    He's back.
[10:18] Gu
    The psychic in room 203, Ryu-san.
[10:22] Gu
    He's probably... human.
[10:24] Y
    Ryu-san?
[10:28] Y
    Wow! All the yokai are bowing!
[10:32] Y
    Is he really...
[10:34] Gi
    Ryu-san, it's been a while.
[10:36] Gi
    Welcome back, Ryu-san!
[10:38] Gu
    Yo.
[10:41] Gu
    Isshiki-san, hello there.
[10:43] Gu
    Is this a new resident? That's rare.
[10:46] Gu
    Yushi Inaba-kun. A first-year JTB student.
[10:50] Gu
    His dorm burned down, so he's
    here for six months.
[10:53] Gu
    I see. Sorry to hear that.
[10:55] Gu
    Th-Thank you! Nice to meet you!
[10:58] Gu
    Nice to meet you.
    Everyone calls me "Ryu-san."
[11:01] Gu
    I'm a down-on-my-luck psychic.
[11:03] Y
    Psychic?
[11:06] Gu
    Is there something you wish to ask?
[11:12] Y
    Why are there so many yokai
    in this apartment building?
[11:19] Gu
    For them, this is an oasis in the desert.
[11:23] y
    Oasis?
[11:25] Gu
    Grass, soil, and water were
    once more abundant,
[11:28] Gu
    and human hearts were also more full.
[11:30] Gu
    There was much darkness,
[11:32] Gu
    and the world's mysteries were
    always by our side.
[11:35] Gu
    But now, all that is lost,
[11:39] Gu
    and humanity has closed its heart.
[11:43] Gu
    While humanity pursued convenience,
[11:46] Gu
    the mysteries lost their place to belong.
[11:49] ---
    Is... that right?
[11:52] Gu
    But whether that's good or bad,
[11:55] Gu
    I doubt you will find an answer.
[11:57] Gu
    Because over time,
[11:59] Gu
    nothing ever stays exactly the same.
[12:01] Gu
    The lives humans live, the world
    of nature, and the yokai...
[12:06] Gu
    They constantly change.
[12:09] Y
    Constantly change?
[12:11] Gu
    I think this apartment building
    will be good for you.
[12:15] Gu
    Pain and sadness are only one
    part of a much larger world.
[12:21] Gu
    As long as you are willing to allow it,
[12:23] Gu
    more will seem normal to you.
[12:26] Gu
    For example,
[12:27] Gu
    by coming here, being able to see
    ghosts has become normal.
[12:32] Gu
    Your life is long, and the world
    stretches out, without end.
[12:42] Gu
    So relax.
[12:59] Y
    Huh? "Akine Kuga" isn't your real name?
[13:03] Gi
    That's right. We psychics hide our names.
[13:07] Gi
    My technique is "Kuga-style Shinnenjutsu."
[13:11] Gi
    It's all about training the mind.
[13:14] Gi
    In sixth grade, I was given permission
    to use the Kuga name.
[13:17] Gi
    And now, I'm an apprentice
    at Tsukinoki Hospital.
[13:20] Y
    Then, the hospital is...
[13:22] Gi
    Naturally, it's a yokai hospital.
[13:24] Gi
    It looks like a normal hospital, though.
[13:26] ---
    
[13:30] Gi
    Okay, good luck with your studies!
[13:35] Y
    A psychic and a yokai hospital, huh?
[13:39] Y
    That's kind of amazing.
[13:40] Y
    It's a whole different world from mine.
[13:47] Gu
    Inaba, on our way home,
    let's hang out somewhere.
[13:50] Gu
    I know a good place.
[13:53] Y
    No, I...
[13:55] Gi
    Too bad. Inaba-kun's busy.
[13:58] Gi
    Let's head to club, Inaba-kun.
[14:01] Y
    This is Tashiro. She's in the English
    Conversation Club with me.
[14:04] Gi
    Hey, why did you decide to join
    the English Conversation Club?
[14:08] Y
    Why?
[14:10] Y
    I don't mind learning English.
[14:11] Y
    I thought it would help
    when I look for a job.
[14:14] Gi
    Wow, you actually put some thought into it!
[14:16] Gi
    I just figured that if I could
    speak English, it'd be cool!
[14:20] Gi
    I mean,
[14:21] Gi
    wouldn't it be awesome to watch
    movies in English without subtitles?
[14:25] Y
    I was surprised by something in high school.
[14:28] Y
    Girls started talking to me normally,
[14:30] Y
    like Akine-chan and Tashiro.
[14:33] Y
    The only girl I had any experience with...
[14:37] Y
    If I even came near her, she got mad.
[14:40] Y
    Come to think of it, didn't Hase
    once say something about that?
[14:44] Gu
    It's because of your aura. It says,
    "If you get close, I'll kill you."
[14:48] y
    Maybe he was right.
[14:51] y
    My parents died, and my whole life changed.
[14:54] y
    And I was so scared by what
    was happening to me...
[14:57] y
    I lost the ability to really smile.
[15:00] y
    But...

    I want to put on a play.
[15:07] Gi
    A musical would also be nice.
[15:09] Y
    Am I starting to change a little?
[15:12] Gi
    You think, as well, Inaba-kun!
[15:17] Gi
    Bye-bye. See you around.
[15:20] Y
    Yeah.
[15:27] Y
    I wonder if they're stopping somewhere, too.
[15:40] Y
    Wh-What is this?
[15:42] Y
    What happened to Tashiro?
[15:48] Y
    No...
[15:49] Y
    I've got a really bad feeling.
[15:56] Y
    This is bad.

[16:22] Gi
    It hurts so much!
[16:25] Gi
    Help me,
[16:28] Gi
    Inaba-kun.
[16:34] Y
    I knew this would happen.
[16:37] Y
    I knew you were in danger, and I...
[16:57] Y
    What is this?
[16:58] A
    Yushi-kun!
[17:00] Y
    Akine-san—
[17:03] Y
    Huh? What happened to me?
[17:10] A
    It's okay, Yushi-kun.
[17:12] A
    She's already stopped bleeding.
[17:15] A
    You stopped it.
[17:17] A
    Hold on. I'll get it out of you now.
[17:27] Y
    What happened?
[17:29] Y
    I feel so much better.
[17:33] A
    Good work!
[17:36] Y
    Thanks.
[17:41] ---
    Chirp... Chirpity-chirp. Chirp...
[17:45] Y
    Gimme more!
[17:46] A
    Sure, sure.
[17:47] A
    Your reward for good work!
[17:49] Y
    But I couldn't do anything for Tashiro.
[17:51] A
    Nope, you saved her!
[17:56] Y
    I did?
[17:57] A
    You said that when you saw her,
    you felt really tired, right?
[18:02] A
    That was because you took on
    the burden of her injuries.
[18:06] Y
    I took on... her injuries?
[18:11] A
    This is the ability to synchronize
    with another person.
[18:15] A
    Psychic healing often uses this method.
[18:18] A
    First, you transfer the damage
    to a stronger body...
[18:23] A
    When the damage is gone, you heal the injury.
[18:26] A
    Then, I take the damage that you took.
[18:33] A
    And let it escape!
[18:35] A
    This time, all of the coincidences
    made your antennae perk up.
[18:39] A
    Don't worry.
[18:40] Gi
    Yep, that's what happened!
[18:42] Y
    Y-Yeah.
[18:45] Gu
    I don't really care, but don't make
    me worry too much, new kid.

    You were worried?

    Of course.

    Hey, listen to this!
[19:01] Gi
    They said I nicked an artery in my leg.
[19:04] Gi
    But when I got to the hospital,
    the bleeding had stopped.
[19:07] Gi
    The doctors were really surprised!
[19:10] Y
    You were lucky, huh?
[19:12] Gi
    Right?
[19:13] Gi
    I'm glad you were there, Inaba-kun.
[19:15] Gi
    You really saved me!
[19:17] Y
    I didn't do anything.
[19:19] Gi
    No...
[19:21] Gi
    When it happened, it hurt
    so much, I thought I'd die.
[19:25] Gi
    But when I saw your face,
[19:28] Gi
    I suddenly started to feel better.
[19:32] Gi
    It was like you sucked away all of my pain!
[19:36] Gi
    Really.
[19:38] Y
    Then, Tashiro felt the synchronization, too.
[19:43] Gi
    I don't know why,
[19:45] Gi
    but I really did feel like that.
[19:47] Gi
    It was so strange.

    Y-Yeah...

    Want to come with us?
