[00:08] A
    Okay, that's all the training for today!
[00:11] Y
    Thank you very much!
[00:13] R
    Good morning.
[00:15] R
    You've both got school this morning,
    and you're training?
[00:18] Y
    Yes!
[00:19] Gu
    Don't know how you do it this early.
[00:22] A
    It's natural!
[00:23] A
    Being a mage is about putting
    in daily practice.
[00:26] A
    Doing something daily, even if
    only a little, is important.
[00:29] y
    I keep saying this, but I'm not
    trying to become a mage...
[00:33] R
    Why not?
[00:34] R
    You could be a high school mage.

    Yushi
[00:38] R
    The High School Mage, Yushi!
[00:40] R
    One day, our hero, Yushi Inaba,
    finds a magic book,
[00:45] R
    and battles one monster
    after another at school!
[00:49] Y
    Let's go.
[00:50] Y
    Lend me your power, Petit Hierozoicon!
[00:56] Y
    What kind of manga or light novel is that?
[00:58] Y
    My high school is normal!
[01:00] R
    That's right.
[01:02] Gu
    And that's a really lazy backstory, Reimei.
[01:06] Y
    Jeez, really...
[01:08] Y
    That's a dream. It's impossible.
[01:11] Gu
    Good grief, chirp, right?
SIGN    Ninth Haunting
    New Term
[02:49] Y
    Bye!
[02:54] Y
    As of today, I'm a second-year.
[02:56] Y
    It's the first time I've been back at school
    since returning to the apartment.
[03:06] Y
    Was I like that last year?
[03:10] Gu
    Master, you're going to
    school now, aren't you?
[03:14] Y
    That's right.
[03:16] Y
    Fool? Stay in my pocket!
[03:19] Gu
    I'm sorry.
[03:23] Gu
    Our job is to protect you, master.
[03:27] Gu
    I shall always be with you.
[03:30] Y
    I left this thing at home.
[03:32] Gu
    I said "always"...
[03:34] Y
    I know!
[03:36] Y
    Be sure not to come out around others!
[03:38] Gu
    Of course.
[03:40] Gu
    Mommy, he's talking to a doll.
[03:44] Gi
    Don't look at him!
SIGN    Joutou Business High School
[03:52] Y
    Jeez, what a way to start the day...
[03:56] T
    Hey! Good morning!
[04:00] Y
    Tashiro!
[04:02] T
    This year, we're in the same class!
[04:04] T
    Glad to be with you, Inaba.
[04:05] Gi
    Same club and same class.
[04:08] Gi
    Must be fate, huh?
[04:10] T
    That's right.
[04:11] T
    The way you saved me, I really
    do feel like it's fate!
[04:14] Gi
    Jeez, you two. If you're going
    to say that, you mean destiny.
[04:18] ---
    Whoops, I got it wrong!
[04:21] Gi
    Hey, Inaba, did you lose weight?
[04:23] Gi
    You seem more trim, somehow...
[04:26] Y
    D-Do I?
[04:28] Gi
    Jeez, Ta-ko, the way you're
    moving your hands is dirty.
[04:32] T
    Oh?
[04:33] Gi
    How closely are you looking at him?
[04:37] Y
    Girls are so...
[04:39] F
    Way to go, master.
[04:41] F
    They all love you.
[04:43] Y
    No! And you stay in there!
[04:51] Y
    And the new year began.
[04:55] Gu
    And so, this relative pronoun goes here...
[05:00] Gu
    And this is what happens.
[05:02] Y
    I guess the only difference was that
    there was a new English teacher.
[05:09] Y
    Katsumasa Miura.
[05:10] Y
    He's probably still in his 20s.
[05:12] Y
    He's only been a teacher
    for three or four years.
[05:16] Y
    His teaching style is clear, and I guess
    he seems serious or smart, but...
[05:25] Gu
    That's all for today.
[05:29] gi
    Sensei, there was a part in that
    last example I didn't get.
[05:33] Gu
    Next class, I'll cover it in detail.
[05:37] Gi
    R-Right...
[05:40] Y
    But he's a little hard to get to know.
[05:44] Gi
    I heard when Miura was in college,
    he did plays and stuff.
[05:49] Y
    Plays?
[05:51] Y
    Underground stuff?
[05:52] Gi
    No. He got lead roles in
    Shakespeare plays and stuff.
[05:57] Gi
    Surprising, huh?
[05:58] Y
    Where did she even learn that?
[06:01] Gi
    But Shakespeare is really classic
    and straightforward, right?
[06:05] Gi
    He doesn't seem like the kind of guy
    who'd do something so showy...
[06:09] Gi
    That's right.
[06:11] Gi
    All his classes follow the book,
    without deviation.
[06:13] Gi
    And they're totally boring.
[06:15] T
    Right?
[06:16] T
    So I figured it out...
[06:19] T
    Something happened at his old school.
[06:26] T
    What? Oh, jeez...
[06:33] Y
    I don't know what could've happened.
[06:36] Y
    But seeing how dark he looks,
    I can believe it.
[06:43] Y
    Miura!
[06:50] Y
    What's he doing?
[06:55] Y
    Practice has started.
[06:57] Y
    Is he watching them?
[07:08] Y
    What?
[07:09] Y
    I felt really angry.
[07:12] Y
    Those eyes, like a dead fish...
    I've never noticed them before.
[07:16] Y
    I could see myself punching him, someday.
[07:19] Y
    No, no...
[07:21] Y
    Miura isn't even my homeroom teacher,
[07:23] Y
    and he has nothing to do with the club.
[07:25] Y
    I'll just stay away from him.
[07:31] F
    Master, who was that?
[07:39] Y
    And so, I went back to my daily life.
SIGN    Welcome New Members!
[07:42] Y
    The spring of my second
    year passed peacefully.
[07:47] Y
    And then, Golden Week came.
[07:50] Y
    I'm so tired...
[07:58] Gu
    Good work on your training!
[08:00] Gu
    Want some cold water?
[08:01] Y
    Stop slacking off!
[08:04] Gu
    Who cares if I do?
[08:07] y
    On his days off,
[08:08] y
    Hase began spending all his
    time at the Yokai Apartments.
[08:11] H
    I can't help it... This place is comfy.
[08:15] H
    The food is good, and the bath feels great.
[08:18] H
    And Kuri's here.
[08:19] H
    Right, Kuri?
[08:22] Y
    He's feeling more and more like a dad.
[08:25] Gu
    There, there.
[08:27] H
    And look at this yard...
[08:29] H
    The flowers are blooming out of season.
[08:32] H
    It kind of purifies the heart—
[08:37] H
    That... isn't a flower.
[08:42] H
    Wow! It isn't a flower!
[08:45] Y
    That's the Yokai Apartments for you!
[08:54] H
    What's wrong?
[08:56] Y
    C-Could it be...
[09:01] Y
    Ryu-san!
[09:03] R
    It's been a long time.
[09:05] R
    No, I should say, "Welcome home."
[09:07] R
    Glad to have you back, Yushi-kun.
[09:10] Y
    Thanks!
[09:12] R
    Your aura's changed, Yushi-kun.
[09:14] R
    I heard that you befriended a magic book.
[09:17] Y
    Th-That's right! I'll go get it!
[09:22] Y
    This is my best friend, Hase Mizuki!
[09:30] H
    Um... sorry.
[09:33] R
    Not at all.
[09:43] R
    This has some amazing stuff in it.
[09:45] Y
    You can tell?
[09:46] R
    I can get a mental image.
[09:50] Y
    Wow...
[09:51] R
    But I'm glad it isn't the real Hierozoicon.
[09:56] Y
    That's same thing Akine-chan said.
[10:01] R
    It was sudden, so I can see
    why you'd be surprised.
[10:04] R
    But it's nothing to worry about.
[10:06] Y
    Furuhonya-san said the same thing.
[10:09] Y
    But it feels like I can believe
    it more when you say it...
[10:13] R
    Does it?
[10:15] Y
    I mean, if you're both mages,
[10:17] Y
    I'd rather have learned it from you!
[10:24] Gu
    I'm sorry you don't like me!
[10:29] Gu
    You think you're in a position to be picky?
[10:33] Gu
    Huh? Huh? Huh?
[10:33] Y
    Sorry! Sorry!
[10:36] Gu
    Hey, welcome back.
[10:37] R
    Hello, Furuhonya-san.
[10:39] R
    How many years has it been?
[10:41] Gu
    Hey, is Ryu back?
SIGN    Maou
[10:44] Gu
    We'll have a party tonight to celebrate!
[10:53] H
    Ryu-san's a cool guy, huh?
[10:56] Y
    Right?
[10:57] H
    It isn't just his appearance...
[10:59] H
    It's like there's something inside him.
[11:01] H
    Like he's standing really firm.
[11:04] y
    And you're amazing for understanding that.
[11:10] F
    I was so nervous, feeling that
    immense spiritual pressure!
[11:14] Y
    Fool? You get nervous?
[11:18] F
    Yes.
[11:19] F
    Even in the modern era, amazing mages
    still exist out there, don't they?
[11:29] Y
    That's Ryu-san for you!
[11:32] Gu
    Sorry that I'm not the one for you...
[11:39] Y
    Ow!
[11:58] R
    This place is always wonderful.
[12:02] h
    Ryu-san, is that a sword wound?
[12:07] R
    Yes, that's right.
[12:09] GU
    Yakuza are busy folks.
[12:12] Y
    Yakuza?
[12:14] Gu
    Sometimes, spiritualists help solve crimes.
[12:20] R
    Ryu-san occasionally does.
[12:23] Gu
    I think it was a desert in
    the American Midwest...
[12:28] Gu
    There was a cult that sacrificed people.
[12:33] Gu
    They burned them alive, and then
    the faithful would eat them!
[12:38] R
    No, no...
[12:40] R
    Broke them into bits and swallowed them.
[12:41] R
    That isn't much better.
[12:44] gu
    Anyway, Ryu-san went in with
    the state police to stop them.
[12:51] H
    Wow!
[12:52] y
    And?
[12:53] Gu
    A gunfight started.
[12:57] Gu
    The original goal was to arrest the leaders
[13:01] Gu
    and break up the group, but...
[13:05] Gu
    Boom!
[13:06] Gu
    In the end, the cultists
    blew up the building,
[13:10] Gu
    and everyone died.
[13:12] R
    That didn't go as I'd hoped...
[13:15] R
    But I did save the hostages.
[13:19] Y
    Is laughing at that okay?
[13:22] R
    Well, they had planned a mass
    suicide to begin with.
[13:27] Gu
    Some people just can't be saved.
[13:34] Gu
    Ryu-san's a bit clumsy.
[13:37] Gu
    So he always gets covered in wounds.
[13:39] R
    What about you, Furuhonya-san?
[13:43] R
    Who was it that failed to recover a secret
    text from a group of Peruvian bandits,
[13:47] R
    and was then shot with a machine gun?
[13:51] gu
    I only got hit twice!
[13:54] R
    Makes a painter's wounds from
    brawls feel like nothing, huh?
[13:57] R
    That's right.
[13:59] R
    A scar from a yakuza's broken bottle
    isn't anything I can boast about.
[14:03] Y
    No, no, no.
[14:05] Gu
    And Reimei-san was almost killed
    by a fan who was stalking him.
[14:10] R
    She was a very passionate girl.
[14:12] Gu
    Reimei-san, die with me!
[14:15] H
    Lucky it was a hardcover, huh?
[14:19] R
    Sheesh, that's right!
[14:26] Y
    Amazing...
[14:28] Y
    All those unbelievable experiences,
    and they're laughing about them.
[14:33] H
    Really, they are amazing.
[14:37] Y
    Hase?
[14:39] H
    All the people who used to hang around me
[14:43] H
    were shallow suck-ups.
[14:47] H
    They were just old.
[14:50] H
    They weren't real adults.
[14:53] H
    But everyone here is a real adult.
[14:57] Y
    Right?
[14:59] Y
    They're a little... no, very strange.
[15:03] Y
    But they all live their lives
    on their own terms.
[15:06] Y
    They're real adults.
[15:09] Y
    I think we kids really need
[15:12] Y
    mentors and teachers like them.
[15:19] H
    Huh?
[15:20] H
    What? An earthquake?
[15:23] H
    Are they working on the road?
[15:25] H
    What's wrong?
[15:34] Gu
    What? A new guy?
[15:36] Gu
    Anyone from the apartment?
[15:38] ---
    Chirpity-chirp! Chirp!
[15:40] Gu
    Oh, it's Matajuro!
[15:42] Gu
    Welcome back, chirp.
[15:43] Gu
    Your face is as big as ever, chirp?
[15:46] Gu
    But it's not only his face that's big, chirp!
[15:49] Gu
    Matajuro!
[15:50] Y
    M-Matajuro?
[15:52] R
    Hey, it's been a while, Matajuro-san.
[15:56] Gu
    Oh, you are here!
[16:01] Gu
    I've brought delicious boar meat!
[16:04] R
    It's huge!
[16:06] Gu
    Looks yummy.
[16:08] Gu
    There was a hunting match in Shirakami.
[16:11] Gu
    And I won!
[16:13] Gu
    Wow!
[16:15] Gu
    This is for the tengu in Kurama.
[16:20] Gu
    You get this.
[16:22] Gu
    It's yummy 'cause it's on
    the verge of rotting!
[16:26] Y
    So tengu are real. I guess that figures.
[16:29] H
    Well, yokai are.
[16:31] Gu
    How have you been, kid?
[16:36] Gu
    Matajuro-san lives in a hidden village
    in the Kumano mountains.
[16:40] H
    A hidden village?
[16:42] Gu
    Places with lots of mountains,
    like Kumano, Hida, and Shirakami,
[16:46] Gu
    have what are called "hidden villages."
[16:49] Gu
    They're just slightly out of phase with us,
[16:52] Gu
    or they have barriers,
[16:54] Gu
    so normal people can't enter.
[16:59] Gu
    But you know,
[17:00] Gu
    humans and those with different powers,
[17:04] Gu
    used to live in the same places.
[17:08] Y
    It's what you said before,
[17:10] Y
    that mysteries are always with us.
[17:13] R
    Indeed.
[17:14] R
    But when the humans' numbers grew,
[17:17] R
    they began to despise those who had
    different appearances and powers.
[17:23] R
    They drove them away,
[17:25] R
    and humans eventually forgot them.
[17:34] Y
    Why do we change like that?
[17:38] Gu
    Don't worry about it, kid.
[17:41] Gu
    The people living in the
    mountains know the deal.
[17:45] Gu
    They're surprised to see us,
    but they don't make a big fuss.
[17:49] Gu
    Sometimes, they even give us smokes.
[17:52] Gu
    See?
[17:58] Gu
    Thanks, Ruriko.
[18:00] Gu
    When I go into town, this is
    what I look forward to!
[18:07] ---
    Delicious!
[18:09] Gu
    Snacks are best when humans make them.
[18:13] Gu
    When I go to Kurama, I want to bring
    back lots of yummy Kyoto sweets!
[18:19] H
    You like sweets, Matajuro-san?
[18:21] Gu
    Yes, when you give kids candy,
    they listen to what you say.
[18:28] H
    In our world, guys like him
    are disappearing, right?
[18:32] R
    Yeah.
[18:39] Gu
    We should be able to eat soon, huh?
[18:42] Gu
    It looks good!
[18:43] Gu
    Ruriko-san made snacks!
[18:46] Gu
    Fresh tuna sashimi!
[18:48] R
    And fresh fried ginger, too!
[18:52] Gu
    Sashimi!
[18:53] R
    Thank you, Ruriko-san!
[19:04] A
    It's so good!
[19:06] K
    Tuna's good with tea and
    rice and pickles, too.
[19:10] Gu
    Okay, let's drink!
[19:13] Gu
    This is so much fun!
[19:19] H
    This looks really weird.
[19:22] H
    But Matajuro-san, who lives alongside
     mysteries and nature,
[19:26] H
    and the people here
[19:28] H
    are probably better off than we are, right?
[19:34] H
    Ryu-san?
[19:35] R
    In the end, it's a problem of the heart.
[19:38] R
    People change.
[19:40] R
    Believe in that,
[19:41] R
    and begin by accepting your
    current way of life.
[19:46] Y
    Right!
[19:49] Y
    It's true that we can't return
    to the life we once had.
[19:54] Y
    But can we have a life that combines
[19:58] Y
    both of these worlds?
[20:04] H
    The world's a big place, huh?
[20:07] Y
    Right?
[20:08] H
    When I come here, I really understand.
[20:11] H
    I thought I was thinking about my future.
[20:15] H
    But I was only looking with a
    very short field of vision...
[20:21] H
    But it's okay to think more
    and be uncertain, right?
[20:26] Y
    Yeah.
[20:28] Y
    We still have time.
[20:33] H
    By the way, Inaba, is school going well?
[20:37] Y
    Where's this coming from?
[20:39] H
    I thought you might have started being
    numb to things at the apartments.
[20:44] H
    The Petit thing even scared me, after all.
[20:47] Y
    I know that.
[20:49] H
    Also...
[20:53] H
    Don't get involved in any weird stuff.
[20:57] Y
    Hase...
[21:00] F
    "Weird"?! You don't mean me, do you?
[21:04] F
    If so, I have no choice but to be upset...
[21:07] F
    Hase-sama! Master!
[21:13] F
    Kuri!
[21:15] F
    Do something, Fool!
[21:16] Y
    I'm not done talking yet, master!
[21:27] T
    I'm telling you... There are ghosts!
[23:10] T
    There are scary stories everywhere, right?
[23:13] T
    The sound of a piano from an empty music room
[23:15] T
    or you wake up at night, unable to move!
[23:18] T
    Do you know any scary stories, Akine-san?
[23:20] T
    Yes... A bowl of delicious
    rice suddenly vanishing!
[23:25] T
    That always happens.
[23:27] T
