[07:27] A     Ruriko-san wanted to know if     you'd like anything in particular. [07:30] H     Whatever Ruriko-san makes! [07:34] R     Why not just stay the night? [07:35] H     Of course! That was the plan! [07:38] Y     No one told me! Where will you sleep? [07:41] H     Your room, of course. [07:43] Y     My room has only one futon... [07:46] H     Then we can share.

[09:01] Y     You're over-excited.     It isn't that big a deal. [09:04] H     Why not? Normally, you'd never get this. [09:07] H     You have yummy food,     and the bath is a hot spring. [09:10] H     It's like a high-class inn! [09:12] Y     You're right. [09:14] H     I'm so jealous, you bastard! [09:16] Y     Wha? [09:16] Y     Hey, what are you doing, you bastard?

[11:54] Gu     He's also training to be a mage. [11:57] Gu     But you know, being a mage     isn't really a big deal. [12:01] Y     No, thank you for all you do for Inaba. [12:05] Gu     I'm just a carrier... [12:08] Y     Did you get something new? [12:10] Gu     Yeah. [12:11] Gu     I found something interesting.     I'll show you later.

[13:01] Gu     Maybe... [13:02] Gu     Sorry. Guys, could you step back a little? [13:15] H     H-H-Heads?! [13:17] Gu     Called it. [13:18] Gu     They absorbed the place's spiritual     energy and gained power. [13:21] Y     Wh-Why are you analyzing this so calmly? [13:24] Y     What do I do? [13:25] Y     Akine-san isn't here, and neither is Ryu-san! [13:28] Y     Who else can fight those things? [13:31] Y     Just me? [13:32] Y     But... [13:38] Y     Hase! Kuri! [13:41] Y     I'm the only one. [13:43] Y     I have to do it! [13:49] Gu     Okay, okay. Don't worry. [13:51] Y     Furuhonya-san... [13:57] Gu     Leave it to me. [13:59] Gu     There's a reason I can deal with these books. [14:02] Gu     Seven Sages. [14:08] Gu     A book? A magical book? [14:10] Gu     Alatreon. [14:24] H     It's gone? [14:26] Y     Furuhonya-san, what are you? [14:29] Gu     A master of books from every     historical period. [14:33] Gu     Everything from great literary     works to ordinary paperbacks. [14:37] Gu     But I specialize in the strange and unusual. [14:42] Gu     And people call me the "Bookmaster." [14:45] Y     The Bookmaster? [14:47] Y     A guy who runs a bookstore? [14:48] gu     Welcome. [14:49] Y     No! Like "master of magical books"! [14:52] Y     Magical books! [14:54] Y     By the way, I'm not a magical girl! [14:54] Y     Self-Censorship [14:57] Gu     No one asked. [14:58] Y     Do you have a magic book, too? [15:02] Gu     Yes, most mages have their own. [15:06] Gu     Those who draw power from a book,     like you or I, are called Bookmasters. [15:12] Gu     We can make a contract with a book [15:15] Gu     and draw upon the power of     what's on the other side. [15:19] Y     The other side... [15:21] Gu     My book, Seven Sages, [15:24] Gu     contains the power of seven mages. [15:27] Gu     And I can use that power however I like. [15:30] Y     Why didn't you say so earlier? [15:34] Gu     It's embarrassing! [15:36] Gu     And... [15:37] Y     And? [15:38] Gu     I'm on a whole different     level than you, right? [15:42] Y     Right. [15:43] Gu     So this is an old book with     a yokai sealed in it? [15:47] R     This place's spiritual energy     gave it power, huh? [15:50] Gu     But I didn't expect the seal to break. [15:54] Gu     This building never fails to disappoint. [15:55] Y     Come on... [15:57] Gu     Well, it happens. [16:00] Gu     Make sure not to get devoured     by any books, boy... [16:04] Y     Jeez! [16:12] Y     I really have only the one futon, okay? [16:15] Y     No complaints. [16:19] Y     Hase? [16:20] Y     What's wrong? [16:24] Y     Hey, you okay? [16:27] H     That scared me. [16:29] H     Flying severed heads... What the hell? [16:32] H     And they attacked us? [16:35] Y     Yeah, but it was fine, right? [16:38] H     This is all new to me! [16:41] H     Yokai and ghosts... [16:43] H     I never thought I'd cross paths     with occult stuff like that. [16:47] H     And then, things like that show up. [16:51] H     It's terrifying... [16:52] Y     Hase, have you been scared the whole day? [16:58] H     Jeez! [17:00] H     Who the hell wouldn't be scared     after seeing spirits and griffins? [17:05] H     I couldn't sleep a wink that night! [17:08] H     And now I'm in an apartment     filled with yokai. [17:11] H     That could terrify even me! [17:16] Y     Yeah, that's normal. [17:19] Y     At first, I was the same way. [17:22] Y     Yokai and ghosts... [17:24] Y     They aren't so easy to accept. [17:27] H     Still, you know... [17:30] H     I was surprised to see all these new things. [17:34] H     But this is a good place! [17:45] Y     Thank you. [17:49] H     Sure. [17:53] H     Hey, let go of me already. [17:56] ---     Huh? Oh, sorry. [18:01] Y     Kuri! How long have you been there?! [18:05] Y     That's it, huh? [18:13] Y     He wants to sleep next to you. [18:20] ---     Hey. [18:22] ---     Hmm? [18:23] H     Sleeping like this, we feel     like a family, huh? [18:27] Y     Maybe. [18:28] H     I'm the dad, and you're the mom. [18:30] Y     Shut your mouth! [18:33] Y     Crap, I woke up Kuri. [18:35] H     What a bad mommy! [18:37] Y     Stop that! [18:39] Y     Come on, don't cry... [18:42] Gu     Please summon Sirene, master. [18:45] H     You're the one from before. [18:48] Gu     Hello, again. [18:50] Y     Fool, who's Sirene? [18:52] Gu     A fairy who sings magical songs! [18:56] Y     Songs. [18:58] Y     I get it! [18:59] Y     Sirene, sing a lullaby. [19:04] H     Wow... [19:19] H     Nice job. [19:20] Y     Yeah, I'm glad it worked. [19:22] Gu     But of course... [19:24] Gu     Tonight, the waves we received     from you were splendid. [19:28] Y     The waves? [19:29] Gu     Indeed. [19:30] Gu     Beautiful, shining waves, strong and supple! [19:36] Gu     Your growth makes us happy! [19:42] H     What's wrong? [19:44] Y     Nothing. [19:46] Y     Let's go to sleep, too. [19:59] Y     If I have grown, it's because... [20:11] h     Thanks for everything. [20:12] Y     No, if anything... [20:14] Gu     Thanks for the presents, chirp. [20:16] Gu     Next time, bring meat, chirp! Meat! [20:18] Gu     Black-haired wagyu, chirp! [20:20] Gu     Aren't macaroons yummy, chirp? [20:22] Gu     Thank you! [20:24] Y     We're the ones who should thank you. [20:27] H     Everyone, I'll be— [20:31] H     I'll be back... [20:33] Y     Yeah. [20:39] Y     I'd been worried for so long. [20:41] Y     No matter how comfy the apartment [20:43] Y     or how everyone supported me, [20:45] Y     I was so worried. [20:48] Y     But Hase accepted it. [20:50] Y     That's enough to keep me going. [20:56] A     You're doing way better. [20:58] A     You can tell, can't you? [20:59] Y     Yeah! [21:00] A     Next time, I'll have to     make it harder, right? [21:03] Y     Right! [21:04] Y     Huh?! [21:07] A     Since Hase-kun left, Kuri's seemed lonely. [21:10] A     I guess he really liked him. [21:12] Y     Yeah. [21:14] Y     It's okay, Kuri. [21:16] Y     Daddy will be back soon. [21:18] A     Daddy? [21:20] Y     No, Hase... Hase said he was     like a daddy on his day off! [21:26] A     Then, Yushi-kun, you're the mom, huh? [21:29] Y     Not you, too. [21:32] R     What are you talking about? [21:33] A     Yushi-kun just said— [21:35] Y     Stop! You don't really need to tell him! [23:10] Y     We're finally in our second year. [23:12] Y     What will school be like, start— [23:15] Y     We're in the same class now, Inaba! [23:17] Y     If something happens, come to me, okay? [23:19] Y     I mean, I can help you.
