ETOTAMA
Since ancient times, Japan has upheld the tradition of the 12 Zodiac signs. Eto-musumes (Zodiac girls), who have the appearance and behavior of the animals of the Zodiac, are pure hearted messengers who act as a bridge between humans and the gods. Every 60 years, the “ETM 12” tournament takes place in Tokyo’s Akihabara district, where aspiring girls from all over Japan gather for the chance to become the next zodiac sign.

An intermingling of repeated wishes...
[00:05] Na
Two destinies intertwining...
[00:09] Na
Long, long ago, in the
land of the rising sun,
[00:13] Na
the gods held a festival to
choose twelve divine messengers
[00:18] Na
to protect the newborn land.
[00:20] Na
However, due to the Rat's trickery,
[00:23] Na
the Cat was not able to
participate in the festival
[00:26] Na
and could not become part of the zodiac.
[00:29] Na
This is a story that still continues today,
[00:32] Na
of a pure-hearted cat and
the twelve "Eto-musume."

[03:29] Key
'Cause that "um" noise sounds like "Eto!"
[03:30] Shima
That was pretty bad.

It wasn't on purpose.

A single house with a yard
for 30,000 yen per month...
[04:08] Takeru
It looks normal from the outside,
[04:11] Takeru
but what's this "Just one imperfection:
part of the living room is fukafuka*"?
SIGN Part of the living room is fukafuka
[04:22] Takeru
That's the fukafuka part?

Wow, it really is puffy (fukafuka).

What is this hole?!
[04:29] Takeru
It's deep (fuka)! That's a deep hole!
[04:31] Takeru
Wait, that's not what it
meant by fukafuka, is it?
[04:36] Takeru
I need to calm down.

I guess it shouldn't be a
problem if I'm careful.

the truth, not a lie.
SIGN Fidget
[05:45] Nya
Even if it hurts...
[05:46] Takeru
Sorry. I lied.
[05:47] Nya
That hurt!
[05:48] Nya
Why?!
[05:49] Nya
How are you not excited after a run-in
with a lucky licking situation like that?!
SIGN Hmm...
[05:53] Takeru
I see... So this is a lucky situation, huh?
[05:56] Nya
Seriously?
[05:57] Takeru
I don't really get it, but sorry
I didn't meet your expectations.
[06:00] Nya
Depressing!
[06:01] Nya
I'm not enough for you?
[06:03] Takeru
No, that's not what I meant...
[06:06] Takeru
I guess it's neither good nor bad.
[06:07] Nya
Depressing!
[06:08] Nya
Meow!
[06:11] Takeru

Can I go now?
[06:43] Takeru
Well, it's a little early,
but I guess I'll take a bath.
[06:48] Nya
Meow?
[06:51] Nya
Meow! Onii-chan, you pervert!
[06:56] Nya
Onii-chan, were you hoping
to take a bath with me?
[07:00] Nya
B-But...
[07:01] Nya
I'd be embarrassed, though...
[07:05] Nya
To bathe with you...
[07:06] Takeru
I'm thinking of taking you to the police
for unlawful entry and assault.
SIGN Rumble
[07:10] Nya
You mean civil or criminal?
[07:11] Takeru
If you want, I can appeal for both.
[07:20] Uma
It's hopeless.
[07:22] Mei
Nobody remembers us at all.
[07:25] Usa
Honestly, you all look pathetic.
[07:28] Key
Shut up!
[07:30] Usa
Don't get so upset.
[07:32] Usa
We'll just have to come
up with a way to list the
[07:35] Usa
Chinese zodiac that's easier to remember.
[07:37] Mo
Oh! That's a good, nice idea!
[07:40] Mei
What sort of way?
[07:42] Shar
Chinese.
[07:45] Shima
Oh, Chinese, huh? That would be...
[07:50] Shima
Zi, chou, yin, mao, chen, si,
wu, wei, shen, you, xu, hai.
[07:55] Key
That's pretty rhythmic!
[07:57] Inu
I like it!
[07:57] Shima
Right?
[07:59] All
Zi, chou, yin, mao, chen,
si, wu, wei, shen, you, xu,

Oh, Takeru-han! Do you feel better?
[08:24] Nya
Here. It's just something simple I
whipped up from what was in the fridge.
SIGN Milk
[08:31] Nya
How's this?! I'm a Kyoto woman who can*
put together a snack from leftovers!
[08:35] Nya
This character is also
divorced with one child!
[08:38] Takeru
I'm going out for a bit.
[08:39] Nya
Where are you going?
[08:41] Takeru
To buy food...
[08:43] Takeru
and scout around.
[08:45] Lady
Thank you very much.
[08:50] Takeru
A delivery?
[08:57] Nya
Meow!
[08:58] Nya
Sorry it took so long!
I finally made up my mind!
[09:01] Nya
Your present is...
[09:03] Nya
Me!
[09:05] Nya
That's my character now!
[09:05] Takeru
Add indecent exposure to the charges.
[09:09] Takeru
Don't sharpen your claws on the pillar.
[09:11] Takeru
So what is it you want to do, exactly?
[09:15] Nya
I can't...
[09:16] Nya
I can't settle on a character type.
[09:19] Nya
Meowie? Meowow?
[09:20] Nya
Mea? Mew?
[09:21] Nya
Meoo?
[09:22] Takeru
So you're trying to find yourself?
[09:25] Nya
When you put it that way,
it sounds really embarrassing.
SIGN Fidget
[09:28] Nya
I wish I could jump into a hole!
[09:30] Takeru
Here.
SIGN Hole
[09:31] Nya
Seriously?!
[09:37] Takeru
You really did go in.
[09:40] Takeru
That's what you get for dressing like that.
[09:42] Nya
But, but...
SIGN Bath Automatic
SIGN More Hot Water
[09:49] Takeru
The bath won't take long to fill.
[09:52] Takeru
They say if your body is cold,
your heart will stay cold, too.
[09:55] Takeru
I heard that from someone a long time ago.
[10:07] Nya
Huh? Something smells nice...
[10:16] Nya
I'm all warmed up!
[10:17] Nya
Takeru, get me a beer!
[10:19] Takeru
Huh?!
[10:20] Takeru
How old are you?
[10:22] Nya
I'm a divine messenger.
[10:24] Nya
I'm not human, so age means nothing to me.
[10:27] Takeru
I have no idea what you're talking about,
[10:29] Takeru
and I'm a minor, so I have no beer.
[10:31] Nya
Aww... Okay, black vinegar!
[10:32] Takeru
I don't have that, either.
[10:33] Nya
Then olive oil!
[10:34] Takeru
I don't— Wait, you drink that?
[10:35] Uri
Then sesame oil.
[10:36] Takeru
None of that, either.
[10:37] Takeru
Wh-Who was that?!
[10:39] Uri
Pleased to meet you. I'm Uri-tan.
[10:43] Takeru
Uri-tan?
[10:44] Uri
Yes. I'm an Eto-musume, like Nya-tan.
[10:48] Takeru
Eto-musume?
[10:50] Uri
Yes.
[10:51] Uri
Oh, but I'm ranked higher than Nya-tan.
SIGN Zodiac Girl
[10:55] Uri
I'm the boar, Eto-shin.
SIGN Boar
SIGN Zodiac God
[10:57] Takeru
Right.
[10:57] Takeru
So I might as well ask...
Where'd you come from?
[11:00] Uri
From this hole.
SIGN Hole
[11:02] Takeru
I should've known...
[11:03] Takeru
Where does that hole lead to?
[11:05] Uri
The world of the gods.
[11:07] Takeru
Gods?!
[11:07] Uri
Sometimes.
[11:08] Takeru
What do you mean, sometimes?
[11:09] Uri
By the way, is Nya-tan working hard at
her training to join the Chinese zodiac?
[11:16] Takeru
Are you trying to speed up the story?
SIGN ack
[11:20] Takeru
This feels like a exposition
character just showed up
[11:22] Takeru
because Nya-tan was dragging things out.
[11:26] Uri
Well, the A part is going to be over soon...
[11:29] Takeru
A part?
[11:30] Uri
You really haven't been told anything?!
[11:33] Uri
Nya-tan, what have you
been doing all this time?
[11:38] Nya
What?
[11:41] Takeru
And?
[11:43] Nya
Okay... I'm a cat Eto-musume,
[11:46] Nya
and I really want to become
part of the Chinese zodiac.
[11:49] Takeru
A cat in the Chinese zodiac?
[11:51] Nya
Yes.
[11:52] Takeru
Why?
[11:56] Nya
Come to think of it, I'm not really sur—
[11:58] Uri
Well, you see, that's...
[12:05] Takeru
What was that?
[12:09] Dora
I've been looking for you,
[12:12] Dora
Nya-tan.
SIGN Animals possessing "Etotama," the spirits of the Chinese zodiac, who can transform into even purer maiden forms via Sol/Lull. The highest Eto-musume are called Eto-shin, and the rest are simply called Eto-musume.
SIGN A power given from gods to people, and from people to Eto-musume. It is also what gives the Eto-musume their life force through the "proper emotions" of humans, such as joy and gratitude, and is the energy that comprises all things in nature.
[12:31] Nya
D-Dora-tan?
[12:39] Takeru
A dragon aura... The dragon Eto-musume?
[12:43] Uri
Yes. More specifically, she's an Eto-shin.
[12:46] Takeru
So if she's a god, Nya-tan,
she's higher than y—
[12:48] Nya
Why are you here?!
[12:49] Dora
You shouldn't have to ask why.
[12:51] Nya
I can't believe it!
[12:53] Takeru
Is she shocked because this dragon girl
[12:55] Takeru
she thought was a friend
ended up being a traitor?
[12:58] Nya
Why?
[13:01] Dora
A human...
[13:07] Uri
Look out!
[13:10] Nya
Takeru!
[13:21] Uri
What is this about?
[13:28] Dora
I'll come at you for real
this time, Nya-tan.
SIGN Dragon
[13:32] Dora
Prepare yourself.
[13:34] Nya
Oh no!
[13:34] Nya
Takeru!
[13:35] Takeru
Huh? What?
[13:36] Nya
Give me Sol/Lull!
[13:39] Takeru
Huh? Sol/Lull?
[13:41] Takeru
What is that? I've never
heard that word before.
[13:44] Nya
There's no time to explain!
[13:46] Nya
You know! The stuff you
sparkled out in the A part!
[13:49] Takeru
Uh-huh...
[13:49] Nya
Come on! Cough it up!
[13:51] Nya
You just have to squeeze some out!
[13:53] Takeru
Yeah, but what is Sol/Lull?
[13:55] Uri
It is a sacred power given from gods to
people, and from people to Eto-musume.
SIGN Sol/Lull (Moe Power) Is:
[13:59] Uri
Human emotions such as joy and gratitude—
[14:02] Nya
Takeru! Takeru!
[14:04] Nya
You were out of body soap
earlier, so I refilled it!
[14:08] Takeru
Oh, really? Well...
SIGN Thank You
[14:09] Takeru
Thank you.
[14:21] Nya
Takeru, this is enough Sol/Lull for now!
[14:24] Takeru
Huh?
[14:28] Nya
Etotama! Sol/Lull Charge!
SIGN Cat
SIGN Cat
[15:02] Nya
Cat Eto-musume, Nya-tan!
[15:06] Voice
Get ready for the match.
[15:32] Takeru
Um, they're both a lot
smaller all of a sudden.
[15:35] Uri
This is ETM12.
[15:37] Takeru
Huh?
[15:38] Uri
Oh, but this is not an official match...
[15:41] Uri
It wasn't Nya-tan who proposed
the battle, so in this case...
[15:45] Uri
Oh, I'll explain it to
you properly next time.
[15:47] Takeru
S-Seriously? You're allowed
to drag it out like that?
[15:49] Uri
For starters, let's see what happens.
[15:52] Nya
Why did you betray me?!
[15:56] Dora
You wouldn't understand.
[16:25] Nya
I trusted you...
[16:28] Nya
Why?!
[16:37] Dora
You wouldn't understand even if I told you!
[16:45] Nya
Was it all...
[16:47] Nya
Was it all a lie?
[16:50] Nya
The smiles...
[16:51] Nya
The tears...
[16:53] Nya
That promise...
[16:55] Nya
And the future we were
reaching for together?!
[17:05] Dora
That's right.
[17:10] Dora
Is this all there is to the power
of the soul in your fist?!
[17:17] Dora
You're weak!
[17:18] Dora
You're too weak, Nya-tan!
[17:23] Dora
I think it's time I ended this.
[17:53] Dora
Come, Ryuusen Bashou!
[17:59] Dora
This is the end!
[18:11] Dora
Looks like you're out of Sol/Lull.
[18:15] Nya
I-I'm not done yet!
[18:20] Dora
The idea of you becoming an Eto-shin
[18:25] Dora
is laughable!
[18:31] Takeru
It disappeared...
[18:32] Uri
The battle is over.
[18:34] Voice
Battle terminated.
[18:40] Takeru
She's really bawling.
[18:42] Nya
I lost!
[18:45] Dora
Stop crying. You're embarrassing yourself.
[18:48] Takeru
I'm not sure what's going on,
but don't worry about it, Nya-tan.
[18:51] Nya
Your kindness hurts!
[18:54] Uri
That's...
[18:55] Dora
Goodness... That's some first-rate Sol/Lull.
[18:59] Takeru
What do you mean, first-rate?
[19:01] Dora
Now, there's no need to be so wary.
[19:04] Uri
Dora-tan is Nya-tan's spirit master.
[19:07] Takeru
Huh?
[19:08] Nya
I thought, if my character was a
tragic heroine who's shocked because
[19:12] Nya
the dragon Eto-musume she thought was
a friend ended up being a traitor,
[19:16] Nya
it might touch Takeru's heart.
[19:19] Takeru
Nothing's going to touch me if you
use such a convoluted method.
[19:22] Nya
Of course not.
[19:24] Dora
That's why I played the enemy role
and fired a little attack at you.
[19:29] Dora
I never intended to hit you.
[19:33] Takeru
Actually, that came pretty close...
[19:36] Takeru
Wh-What?
[19:37] Dora
Did you wash yourself with shampoo?
[19:40] Takeru
Huh?
[19:41] Nya
I might have refilled the soap
bottle with shampoo by mistake.
[19:45] Nya
Tee-hee!
[19:46] Takeru
Grr...
SIGN Grrr
[19:48] Uri
But, Dora-tan, what did you
mean by "first-rate Sol/Lull"?
[19:52] Dora
Oh, yes. It's extremely rare Sol/Lull.
[19:55] Dora
It's of the finest quality to us
in both quality and quantity.
[19:58] Nya
Really?
[19:59] Dora
Yes.
[20:01] Dora
You should have felt it when you used
your Sol/Lull Charge in that battle.
[20:05] Dora
Even that small amount gave
you enough power to fight me.
[20:12] Nya
I see, I see!
[20:14] Takeru
You don't get it at all, do you?
[20:16] Uri
Nya-tan falls a little short
in the brains department.
[20:19] Takeru
I see...
[20:21] Nya
In other words...
[20:22] Nya
I got an invincibility star?!
SIGN Right On!
[20:26] Dora
Yes. That's exactly what it means.
[20:29] Nya
With Takeru, I'm invincible!
[20:31] Dora
Good for you, Nya-tan.
[20:33] Uri
Though that's only if you can
get Sol/Lull from him...
[20:36] Nya
That's easy! I just have
to poke him a little!
[20:40] Uri
Poking doesn't make Sol/Lull come out.
[20:42] Takeru
It's like a cosplay skit...
[20:42] Nya
Then I'll just play the little
sister or present character again!
[20:45] Takeru
Well, I'm hungry,
so I guess I'll fix dinner.
[20:48] Nya
I want some!
[20:49] Dora
I don't like hot foods,
so keep it room temperature.
[20:52] Uri
I'll have anything but pork.
[20:52] Nya
Meat! Meat! Meat! Eat! Meat! Fish!
[20:55] Takeru
Where do I even start pointing
out what's wrong here?
[20:57] Takeru
Oh, well. I'm tired.
[21:01] Takeru
I won't think too much about it...
SIGN Oh, Right
[21:06] Takeru
My house was completely destroyed!
[21:10] Takeru
What do I do about this?!
[21:12] Dora
You're denser than I thought.
[21:14] Nya
Don't worry, Takeru!
I'll strip down and help!
[21:16] Takeru

Only you, Takeru.

Wait, put out the fire! Water! Water!

Whoa, that smells really good!

It's sesame oil.

Sesame oil and salt are the best.

I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
It's because my name sounds bad!
[05:04] Takeru
This is some kind of trauma
for her, isn't it?
[05:06] Uri
Well, she's a horse (uma).
[05:08] Takeru
Uri-tan, you're on the team I
couldn't remember. You don't mind?
[05:10] Uri
Should I mind?
[05:12] Nya
He ignored it...
[05:13] Takeru
I see. You're the one who comes
up with the clever (umai) lines.
[05:16] Uri
Well, she's a horse!
[05:18] Takeru
Why do you keep pushing the horse thing?
[05:20] Nya
Just admit defeat.
[05:23] Takeru
So, by the way...
[05:25] Takeru
Why won't that Eto-shin come over here?
[05:29] Uri
Piyo-tan has the brain of a bird.
[05:30] Uri
She loses her memories after
walking three steps.
[05:33] Uri
When there's something she
doesn't want to forget,
[05:35] Uri
she tries not to move.
[05:37] Takeru
Um...
[05:39] Takeru
What doesn't she want to forget?
[05:41] Mo
Of course!
[05:43] Mo
It's her revenge on Nya-tan for
what she did to us earlier!
[05:49] Piyo
I'll never forgive that stupid cat!
[05:51] Takeru
That's a pretty nasty personality...
[05:53] Uri
Well, she's a bird!

Chicken bones (torigara) and personality
(gara)! She got us good (ippon torareta)!

Uh, aren't you gonna point out
that I'm a tiger (tora)?

[06:09] Nya
I'm stuffed.

[06:14] Nya
Come in here already.
[06:15] Piyo

Nya-tan's always teasing Piyo-tan...
[06:58] Uri
That is, freeing her from her hatred.
[07:01] Takeru
Wow.
[07:02] Takeru
So Uri-tan, are your ribs okay now?
[07:04] Uri
I'm just fine.
[07:05] Uri
But fragments of Piyo-tan's memories of
[07:08] Uri
being freed from hatred still
remain in her soul...
[07:12] Uri
So even if she forgets why,
[07:15] Uri
she always retains the feeling that she
just hates Nya-tan for some reason.
SIGN Hiss~
[07:18] Takeru
That personality must be
pretty rough on her.

Well, you'll learn all that in time.

Hey! Stop it!

I'll turn you into yakitori!

I won't let you off so easily.
[08:03] Piyo
Remember that!
[08:05] Nya
You don't even remember anything yourself.
You're in no position to say that.
[08:09] Takeru
She doesn't look like the
strongest of the Eto-musume.
[08:12] Shima
Nya-tan can't help that. She's got amnesia.
[08:15] Usa
What? Is that true?
[08:18] Mo
Oh.
[08:19] Inu
She does?
[08:20] Key
I never knew.
[08:23] Takeru
Amnesia?
[08:25] Takeru
Is that why she's trying to find herself

She's forgotten a lot of important things.

Oh! Please don't stimulate
my breasts so much!
[09:02] Mo

There aren't many humans who

[10:02] Takeru

[10:32] Takeru
Nya-tan...
[10:38] Nya
Got it.
[10:39] Takeru
She tricked me!
[10:41] Takeru
What exactly is Sol/Lull, anyway?
[10:43] Dora
Didn't I just tell you?
[10:45] Dora
It's the source of an
Eto-musume's life force.
[10:47] Takeru
But why does it come out of me?
[10:50] Uri
Sol/Lull is the embodiment
of proper human emotions.
[10:51] [SONG] Text
Proper Emotions
[10:53] Uri
It's a type of energy only humans possess.
[10:55] Takeru
"Proper" emotions?
[10:58] Dora
You know, every time you've felt grateful,
SIGN Thank You
[11:01] Dora
Sol/Lull has appeared.
SIGN Cat
[11:06] Uri
And when Sol/Lull collects in an
Eto-musume's soul, their Etotama,
[11:10] Uri
they transform from Adult Mode, the form
that allows them to exist in the human world,
[11:14] Uri
to the form that allows them to
[11:16] Uri
fight in the Eto world, Pretty Mode.
[11:20] Takeru
I see.
[11:23] Nya
Takeru, give me more!
[11:26] Nya
Give me more of yours!
[11:29] Takeru
Let go of me.
[11:31] Mo
If you're going to cling to a body,
[11:34] Mo
cling to mine!
[11:35] Nya
No!
[11:37] Mo
Oh, listen to you!
You're such a meaniehead!
[11:40] Nya
No! Takeru!
[11:42] Uri
That was a pretty
old-fashioned expression...
[11:44] Takeru
But why does Nya-tan want
that stuff so badly?
[11:48] Shima
Because...
[11:49] Shima
She's not an Eto-shin.
[11:52] Shima
The twelve of us Eto-shin
are divine messengers,
[11:56] Shima
so we obtain Sol/Lull through humans'
devotion without even doing anything.
[12:00] Dora
But the girls who haven't been
selected to be in the twelve
[12:03] Dora
have to gather Sol/Lull on their
own in order to transform.
[12:33] Chu
What low-quality Eto-musume
we have this time around.
SIGN Eto-musume can take three forms.
Adult Mode is how they appear under normal circumstances,
Pretty Mode allows them to use Sol/Lull more easily,
and Natural Mode is their animal form.
SIGN A divine ritual. It was once called the
Eto-shin Selection Festival, but is now called "ETM12"
as a shortened form of "Eto-musume 12."

Takeru, give me Sol/Lull!
[13:16] Nya
I want yours, Takeru!
[13:19] Takeru
Grr.
[13:20] Mo
Oh!
[13:21] Mo
It's jealousy!
[13:25] Mo
If only my love could produce Sol/Lull...
[13:28] Mo
But all I can produce is milk!
[13:30] Nya
You've never produced milk!
[13:32] Nya
And if you did, I wouldn't want it!
[13:34] Mo
Oh...
[13:35] Mo
What could I give you to
[13:38] Mo
make you accept my love?
[13:40] Nya
There's nothing I'd take from you!
[13:43] Nya
Yes, there is!
SIGN Ox
[13:45] Nya
Give me your Sol/Lull Seal, Mo-tan!
[13:48] Mo
Of course!
[13:49] Mo
If you can collect twelve Sol/Lull Seals,
[13:52] Mo
you'll become an Eto-shin.
[13:54] Nya
That's right! So hand it over!
[13:56] Mo
Okay!
[13:58] Mo
This tough, bossy Nya-tan is good, too!
[14:01] Mo
But...
[14:02] Mo
I can't just give it to you for free.
[14:04] Nya
The rules say there's no problem
with you giving it away for free.
[14:07] Mo
No, no.
[14:09] Mo
I want to grapple it out
[14:11] Mo
with you in a real battle!
[14:14] Nya
All right!
[14:15] Nya
Then we'll fight for your Sol/Lull Seal!
[14:18] Mo
Okay, Nya-tan!
[14:21] Mo
Then...

let the pleasant feeling
take over, and it'll come out!
[15:14] Takeru
No, it won't.
[15:16] Nya
It will! It will! It will!
[15:17] Nya
Come on! Let's do this thing!

You know, if you asked me whether I think the
[15:22] Takeru
way you're acting will inspire
any "proper" emotions...
[15:24] Takeru
It won't.
[15:27] Uri
It's okay, Nya-tan.
[15:30] Uri
Take this.
[15:31] Nya
What's that?
[15:32] Uri
This morning,
[15:34] Uri
when Takeru-san found out
you were making breakfast,

[15:37] Uri
his shy, happy gratitude
produced this Sol/Lull.

got before, I've got enough!
[15:49] Nya

Etotama! Sol/Lull Charge!
[15:55] Takeru
S-Sure...
[16:12] Nya
Cat Eto-musume, Nya-tan!
[16:21] Uri
It looks like the time has come
when I must give an explanation.
[16:24] Takeru
What now?
[16:25] Uri
The Eto-shin Selection Festival,
held once every sixty years,
[16:29] Uri
where Eto-musume can attain the rank
of Eto-shin with their own fists...
SIGN Eto-shin Selection Festival
[16:31] Uri
That's the ETM12!
[16:34] Takeru
ETM12 is the name of a festival, then?
[16:37] Uri
For Nya-tan to become an Eto-shin,
[16:39] Uri
she must defeat all twelve Eto-shin in
battle while the ETM12 is in progress
[16:42] Uri
and obtain all of their Sol/Lull Seals.
[16:49] Nya
That line was too long.
[16:50] Takeru
You were waiting for her?
[16:51] Nya
Okay, let's decide the battle rules!
[16:54] Mo
We'll play a game of tag.
[16:55] Mo
If you can protect a certain item
for three minutes, you win,
[16:59] Mo
and I'll give you my Sol/Lull Seal.
[17:01] Nya
Yay! Huh?
[17:03] Nya
A certain item?
[17:04] Mo
That would be...
[17:06] Mo
Your socks!
[17:08] Nya
Wh-Wh-What kind of gross rule is that?!
[17:10] Nya
No, no, no!
[17:11] Nya
I've been wearing these for three days!
[17:14] Mo
Used socks are
[17:16] Mo
the best!
[17:19] Nya
I was kidding! I was kidding!
I change them every day!
[17:25] Nya
It hurt you that much?
[17:27] Mo
But that's no problem.
[17:29] Mo
As long as they're socks you've worn,
[17:32] Mo
that's good enough!
[17:34] Mo
I'm gonna throw all I've got
into taking your socks!
[17:38] Mo
Let's start!
[17:48] Nya
If that's how it is, I'll show you!
[17:52] Mo
Where'd you go?
[17:54] Nya
All I have to do is run away and I win!
[18:01] Uri
You can do it, Nya-tan!
[18:02] Uri
Go for twelve wins and no losses!
[18:05] Takeru
No losses? Didn't she lose
to Dora-tan the other day?
[18:08] Dora
Oh, that battle...
[18:10] Uri
That was just a skit.
[18:12] Takeru
What happens if Nya-tan loses
in an official battle?
[18:15] Uri
In that case, she'd lose her Sol/Lull Seal
[18:18] Uri
and lose the ability to
transform into Pretty Mode.
[18:20] Shima
And she'd lose the right
to participate in ETM12.
[18:24] Uri
By the way, we Eto-shin can accept
challenges from Eto-musume
SIGN Eto-shin
[18:28] Uri
and fight as many times as we want.
[18:31] Dora
How will she fight Mo-tan?
[18:34] Takeru
Is she strong?
[18:36] Uri
Her personality's a little weird,
[18:37] Uri
but she's one of the five
strongest Eto-shin.
[18:41] Mo
Nya-tan! Where are you?
[18:44] ---
Sneak, sneak, sneak...
[18:46] Nya
I'm clever, so I'll just
stay here and hide.
[18:51] Mo
I found you!
[18:57] Nya
H-How did you find me?!
[18:59] Mo
No matter where you are,
[19:00] Mo
I can find you by your smell!
[19:03] Mo
Now give me those nice,

[19:06] Nya
I refuse!
[19:10] Mo

Fate? You mean that story about
the rat tricking the cat
[17:22] Takeru
so it couldn't participate in the

It's true that the ETM12 of

2,000 years ago was a footrace.
[17:31] Shima
And the twelve Zodiac gods chosen
then were the current twelve.

Rabbit Eto-shin, Usa-tan!
[16:07] Nya
What the heck?!
[16:08] Usa
You look disgraceful.
[16:19] Nya
Choose your rules!
[16:20] Usa
Now, now. Would you like some tea?
[16:22] Nya
Thanks.
[16:25] Nya
Wait, no!
[16:28] Nya
Fight me!
[16:31] Usa
"Look that way."
[16:33] Usa
We will play three times.
[16:35] Nya
Okay.
[16:36] Usa
If you beat me even once,
[16:38] Usa
I'll give you my Sol/Lull Seal...
[16:43] Usa
And I'll produce you...
[16:46] Usa
For free!
[16:53] Uri
She may have a bit of a disadvantage
against that rule.
[16:56] Takeru
She's been following
[16:58] Takeru
Usa-tan's finger this whole time...
[17:00] Usa
Time for round one!
[17:04] Nya
B-Bring it on!
[17:05] Usa
Rock, paper, scissors!
[17:12] Usa
Look...
[17:15] Takeru
She shut her eyes!
[17:16] Uri
That's impressive, for Nya-tan!
[17:18] Usa
...that way!
[17:20] Nya
It worked!
[17:21] Usa
Time Stop!
[17:28] Nya
What did you do?!
[17:30] Usa
Looks like I've won the first round.
[17:33] Takeru
Didn't Usa-tan say something
really clearly just now?
[17:36] Uri
Yep, yep.
[17:37] Mo
Oh! Fantastic!
[17:38] Usa
Time for the second round.
[17:40] Usa
Rock, paper, scissors!
[17:44] Usa
Look...
[17:46] Nya
That thing's totally suspicious!
[17:50] Nya
Time Stop!
[17:55] Usa
Silly. Did you think time would stop?
[18:00] Usa
This is your last chance, Nya-tan.
[18:04] Uri
She lost the second round, too.
[18:06] Takeru
That clock doesn't stop time?
[18:08] Uri
It's very curious...
[18:10] Uri
I know! Let's find out!
[18:12] Takeru
How?
[18:13] Uri
We'll rewind it and watch
it frame-by-frame.
[18:15] Uri
You can do that?
[18:17] Uri
This is the first round.
[18:19] Usa
Rock...
[18:22] Usa
Paper...
[18:25] Usa
Scissors!
[18:29] Uri
She saw how Nya-tan's fingers
were going to move!
[18:31] Uri
The ultimate delayed-play foul!
[18:33] Takeru
Wow...
[18:34] Uri
That's Usa-tan's super high speed power.
[18:36] Takeru
You knew about it?
[18:37] Uri
No, this is my first time learning of it.
[18:41] Uri
And next is the "look that way" moment.
[18:45] Usa
Time...
[18:47] Usa
Stop!
[18:51] Usa
That was forceful!
[18:53] Uri
It appeared she had plenty
of time to do it.
[18:55] Takeru
She got a lot done in that time!
[18:59] Uri
Incredible.
[19:01] Uri
This is something only Usa-tan,
[19:03] Uri
with her super high speed power, could do.
[19:05] Takeru
Nya-tan's at a serious disadvantage now.
[19:07] Takeru
What can she do?
[19:08] Uri
Yes...
[19:10] Uri
Her only hope is to have
fortune on her side.
[19:12] Takeru
No way...
[19:14] Usa
All right, for better or worse,
[19:16] Usa
it's time for the last round!
[19:20] Usa
Rock...
[19:23] Usa
Paper...
[19:23] Nya
I'm taking hold of my fortune!
[19:30] Nya
Me-ow!
[19:33] Nya
And then...

Look...
[19:38] Nya
That way!
[19:39] Nya
That way!
[19:41] Nya
That way!

Battle is over.
[20:05] Uri
That was amazing, Nya-tan!
[20:07] Voice
Please shut down and start again.
[20:07] Mo
How exciting!
[20:10] Nya
I did it!
[20:13] Nya
I took hold of my fortune!
[20:16] Takeru
But why'd you grab Usa-tan's
foot like that?
[20:19] Nya
It's a rabbit's foot.
[20:20] Takeru
Rabbit's foot? Like this?
[20:22] Uri
It's an accessory that humans have
[20:24] Uri
carried for good luck since ancient times.
[20:28] Usa
I was careless...
[20:30] Mo
So your feet are your erogenous
zone, eh, Usa-tan?
[20:33] Usa
Wh-What are you saying?!
[20:35] Mo
It just hit me.
[20:38] Mo
That was erotic ecstasy in
[20:40] Mo
your face and voice!
[20:45] Uri
I get it. Usa-tan was
squirming as she lost.
[20:48] Takeru
I don't know if you'd call
that good fortune or not...
[20:50] Nya
Anyway, I'm one more step
closer to the zodiac!
[20:53] Nya
Now, go ahead and produce me for free!
[20:56] Nya
For free!
[20:58] Usa
I suppose I'll have to.

Here you go, then.

Shar-tan's special curry is almost ready!
[02:44] Inu
Yeah!
[02:45] Uri
By the way, Key-tan, Inu-tan,
[02:47] Uri
how do you like living at Takeru-san's place?
[02:50] Key
It's super nice!
[02:51] Key
I mean, it comes with meals,
baths, and even Sol/Lull!
[02:54] Inu
I think my shoulders even feel less stiff!
[02:56] Uri
Takeru-san's Sol/Lull
[02:58] Uri
permeates through the floor and walls.
[03:01] Uri
It's like far-infrared light therapy.
[03:03] Inu
Takeru's amazing!
[03:05] Mei
It really is the ultimate Sol/Lull.
[03:08] Nya
Nyummy!
[03:10] Nya
Curry really piques my appetite!
[03:13] Nya
I feel like it's missing something, though.

Really?
SIGN Sesame Oil
[03:17] Uri

Don't put in sesame oil!
[03:21] Piyo
You know it'll clash with the curry spices!
[03:25] Uri
Then what should I put in?
[03:27] Mei
It just so happens I have a secret
ingredient that should match curry well.
[03:31] Mo
What?
[03:32] Nya
A mysterious liquid?
[03:34] Mei
It's not mysterious.
[03:35] Mei
It's a spice I made by
mixing Sol/Lull extracts.
[03:39] Nya
Sol/Lull extract?! Give it
to me! Give it all to me!
[03:41] Mei
Oh, I can't do that.
[03:43] Mei
I made it just for this curry.
[03:47] Nya

How are you not annoyed, Mei-tan?
[03:57] Mei
Huh?
[03:58] Uri
"Angel in white" certainly
is a fitting nickname.
[04:01] Uri
Though she's a god, not an angel.
[04:02] Nya
Found an opening!
[04:07] Mo
Oh, no! The curry's turning
a fantastic color!
[04:09] Uma
It doesn't look like we can eat that.
[04:12] Mei
It's all right.
[04:13] Mei
All she added is a spice that's essential
for us gods to maintain good health.
[04:18] Mei
It's health-fortification curry.
[04:21] Nya
It's the Sol/Lull that matters here!
[04:23] Nya
All that precious Sol/Lull is gone now!
[04:26] Mei
Sol/Lull?
[04:27] Mei
I can get more of that right now.
[04:31] Nya
You didn't even do anything,
and look at all that Sol/Lull!
[04:35] Uri
That's what the zodiac gods can do.
[04:37] Nya
Lucky! I wish I could just go "hee-hee"
[04:39] Nya
and automatically soak up
all the Sol/Lull I want!
[04:42] Key
If you want Sol/Lull,
can't you just get it from Takeru?
[04:47] Nya
Takeru hasn't put out much Sol/Lull since
[04:50] Nya
Uri-tan's reincarnation incident.
[04:51] Uri
He's at a highly mistrustful age.
[04:53] Piyo
You got what you deserved, stupid cat.
[04:57] Nya
I wonder if Takeru's still sleeping.
[04:59] Uri
Now that you mention it,
he hasn't come down yet.
[05:02] Nya
All right! I'll wake him up and squeeze
out his first Sol/Lull of the morning!
[05:05] Nya
Meow, meow, meow!
[05:07] Uma
And that's why she can't
get any Sol/Lull from him.
[05:13] Nya
Takeru!
[05:15] Nya
Good morning!
[05:16] Nya
Wake up, Takeru!
[05:19] Nya
This is...
[05:20] Nya
Takeru is finally becoming
[05:22] Nya
aware of me as a woman!
[05:25] Nya
It's okay, Takeru.
[05:27] Nya
Give me all the Sol/Lull you like...
[05:32] ---
Smooch.
[05:35] Nya
Ow, hot!
[05:38] Nya
Takeru?
[05:50] Nya
Well? What's wrong with Takeru?
[05:53] Mei
He has a cold.
[05:54] Nya
A cold? But he looks really miserable.
[05:57] Nya
It's only a cold?
[05:58] Mei
I'll figure out the exact
cause and make some medicine.
[06:09] Nya
What's that?
[06:15] All
Wha— Wha—
[06:17] All
What is this?!
[06:22] Nya
Everyone's in swimsuits for some reason!
[06:24] Nya
We're suddenly heading

[06:26] Mei
Oh, my...
[06:29] Nya
Again?!
[06:31] All
Wha— Wha—
[06:33] All
What is this?!
[06:39] Nya
There's no bath,
but they're all in bath towels!
[06:41] Nya
It's going from a swimsuit episode
to a hot spring episode now!
[06:45] Mei
His Sol/Lull isn't in very good shape.
[06:49] Dora
I understand.
[06:50] Dora
The Sol/Lull of the young man down with a cold
[06:52] Dora
is being emitted regardless of his will.
[06:56] Mei
Yes... And the Sol/Lull
being emitted is unstable,
[06:59] Mei
varying between weak and strong.
[07:01] Mei
It's very unique Sol/Lull.
[07:03] Shima
So that's why we look like this.
[07:05] Shima
Our clothes are made from
Sol/Lull, after all.
[07:08] Inu
Bath towels are "clothes"?
[07:09] Uma
I'm sorry! I'm sorry for
exposing myself like this!
[07:13] Nya
But why haven't I changed at all?
[07:15] Nya
Am I totally ruled out when
it comes to sex appeal?!
[07:18] Uri
Calm down, Nya-tan. Mei-tan
hasn't changed, either.
[07:22] Usa
Which means it must have
nothing to do with sex appeal.
[07:26] Mei
I don't often get sick in the first place.
[07:30] Nya
Then I must be fine because
I live well every day!
[07:33] Nya
Yay!
[07:33] InuKey
It's because she's an idiot.
[07:34] UsUmPi
Because she's an idiot.
[07:35] DoShi
Idiots don't get sick.
[07:37] Mo
Fantastic!
[07:38] Uri
She's impressive, all right.
[07:40] Nya
Now that we've had swimsuits

[08:03] Nya
What is that?!
[08:06] Usa
Why are you acting so disappointed?
[08:09] Nya
I'm speaking for the viewers!
I represent all of them!
[08:13] Nya
Oh, that's right!
We can't show it on the air,
[08:16] Nya
but in the disc versions,
the light will be gone!
[08:18] Uri
These are drawn on the cels.
They won't come off.
[08:22] Mo
Nya-tan, my sweetheart!
[08:25] Mo
Don't cry!
[08:27] Mo
If my nude body will do,
I'll be as nude as you want!
[08:30] Key
What? Is she trying to take off the light?
[08:32] Nya
That's stupid! She's stupid!
[08:40] Inu
Inu!
[08:50] Nya
What is this chaos?!
[08:52] Nya
How much energy are they trying
to expend on the animation?!
[08:56] Nya
Why are they actually starting
to test each other's strength?!
[08:59] Dora
[09:00] Nya
My master suddenly made a run for it?!
[09:05] Nya
And she looks like she's in serious agony!
[09:08] Uri
It looks like the out-of-control
Sol/Lull made not just her feet,
[09:10] Uri
but her entire body an erogenous zone.
[09:14] Nya
She's a total 18-and-up-only Eto-shin now...
[09:18] Nya
What's wrong?
[09:19] Key
Kee-kee-kee-kee!
[09:20] Inu
Inu! Inu! Inu! Inu!
[09:22] Nya
Right, uh-huh, uh-huh...
[09:24] Nya
Like I understand that!
[09:25] Nya
Also, dogs say "woof"!
[09:30] Nya
You're back to normal?
[09:33] Nya
What's going on?
[09:36] Mei
When you smack them in retort,
[09:38] Mei
the out-of-control Sol/Lull seems
to be ejected from their bodies.
[09:42] Nya
So if I smack all of them with retorts,
[09:44] Nya
they'll all go back to normal?
[09:46] Mei
Well, yes, but it's only temporar—
[09:49] Nya
Here I go!
[09:51] Uma
Forgive me! I'm sorry!
[09:53] Uma
I'm sorry I'm dressed like this!
[09:55] Uma
Ah, how I envy Mo-tan...
[09:58] Uma
I envy people with nice bodies...
[10:01] Uma
Envy!
[10:03] Nya
You sound more like a bound
spirit than an Eto-shin!
[10:07] Nya
All right! Next!
[10:12] Nya
If I go anywhere near this one,
it's gonna get annoying.
[10:15] Nya
An explosion?!
[10:16] Mei
Oh, dear. They've all started to rampage.
[10:19] Mei
We need to find a way to
deal with this, quickly.
[10:25] Nya
My house is destroyed!
[10:30] Nya
My house is rebuilt!
[10:32] Nya
What kind of self-fulfilled work is that?!
[10:39] Nya
Destroyed again?! What are you doing?!
[10:41] Dora
Don't feel.
[10:43] Dora
Think!
[10:44] Nya
I am thinking, and I don't
get it! That's why I asked!
[10:47] Shima
Nya-tan...
[10:48] Shima
You've got some nice skin, don't ya?
[10:51] Nya
She's pretending this is casual skinship,
but she already has me in a lock!
[10:55] Nya
I can't move a single finger!
[10:57] Nya
Even if she does something dumb,
I can't smack her now!
[11:00] Shima
Rub, rubbity-rub...
[11:05] Nya
You're a leopard, not a tiger?
[11:07] Nya
Wait, a leopardess?!
[11:09] Nya
I... I can't smack her...
[11:11] Shima
I never let my prey escape.
[11:14] Nya
An erotic development?
Or is she really trying to eat me?!
[11:17] Nya
I don't know which it is,
but I don't like either one!
[11:23] Mo
Stop! Can't you see she doesn't like that?
[11:26] Nya
This feels so wrong,
my hair's standing on end!
[11:29] Mo
My lovely princess, please don't cry.
[11:36] Mo
I will fight for my beloved lady!
[11:39] Shima
I'm gonna gobble her up!
[11:41] Nya
You're both nothing but perverts!
[11:46] Nya
You're one tough master!
[11:47] Shima
Nya-tan, as fellow felines,
let us caterwaul together!
[11:51] Nya
What are you, an old man?!
[11:52] Mo
I will protect her chastity or die trying!
[11:55] Nya
Then go ahead and die!
[11:57] Nya
Also, you're the one putting
my chastity in danger!
[12:01] Nya
You're back already?!
[12:02] Shima
Nya-tan, let's make out! Unify! Become one!
[12:06] Nya
No more, old man!
[12:07] Mo
I will—
[12:08] Nya
Shut up, pervert!
[12:11] Nya
I'm in trouble...
[12:12] Nya
I keep smacking them,
but they keep coming back.
[12:15] Nya
I actually would appreciate
even a cat's help right now...
[12:19] Mei
Nya-tan, I've got it!
[12:21] Nya
What, I have to take a sheep's help?!
[12:24] Mei
The out-of-control Sol/Lull is being
caused by the "divine cold virus."
[12:28] Nya
Divine cold virus?
SIGN The Conference
of Gods selects 108 Eto-musume and 12 Eto-shin to
participate in the Eto-shin Selection Festival (ETM12),
granting them Sol/Lull Seals as proof of their qualification.
SIGN Immediately after
an Eto-musume invokes her right to issue an inescapable
challenge to an Eto-shin, and accepts the Eto-shin's stated
conditions for victory, the battle for the Sol/Lull Seal begins.
[12:45] Nya
So what is this divine cold virus, anyway?
[12:49] Mei
It's an illness brought on by a virus
that only occurs in the Eto realm.
[12:52] Mei
It multiplies within Sol/Lull.
[12:55] Mei
No human has ever been known to catch it...
[12:59] Uri
Takeru-san's Sol/Lull is special.

Maybe that has something to do with it?

Well, panicking won't do any good.
[13:10] Uri
It seems like I just keep getting smaller.
[13:13] Uri
I'm not going to die or anything,
so I can just wait unti—
[13:22] Nya
She died.
[13:25] Nya
Takeru?!
[13:28] Mei
The divine cold virus is spreading
at a terrifying rate...
[13:32] Mei
If it keeps up, all of Takeru-san's
[13:34] Mei
Sol/Lull will be devoured!
[13:36] Nya
What'll happen if it gets devoured?
[13:39] Mei
Takeru-san won't wake up. Ever.
[13:42] Nya
No way! Wh-What do we do?
[13:45] Mei
The only way is to enter his Sol/Lull
directly and treat it there.
[13:49] Mei
Enter his Sol/Lull? Is that possible?
[13:52] Mei
With my ability, it is.
[13:55] Mei
But Takeru-san will be utterly
defenseless while he's being treated.
[13:59] Mei
If he takes even the smallest blow,
his condition will become critical.
[14:03] Nya
So what do we do?
[14:05] Mei
Protect Takeru-san's body.
[14:08] Mei
You're the only one I can count on, Nya-tan.
[14:11] Nya
Y-You're counting on... me?
[14:13] Mei
Yes.
[14:15] Mei
Nya-tan!
[14:16] Nya
I got it!
[14:18] Nya
We haven't had much to do
[14:20] Nya
with each other before, but...
[14:23] Nya
Right now,
[14:24] Nya
we share the same desire
to make Takeru better!
[14:27] Mei
Yes!

[14:40] DoShiMo

Off I go!
[15:10] Mei
There!
[15:21] Takeru
Huh? Mei-tan?
[15:23] Mei
Hang in there just a bit longer, Takeru-san.
[15:26] Mei
I'll fix you up in no time.
[15:42] Mei
That completes the treatment.
[15:45] Mei
It's okay now, Takeru-san!
[15:48] Takeru
Th-Thanks...
[15:50] Mei
It's all right.
[15:51] Mei
My job is to look after the health of humans.
[15:55] Mei
As long as humans are healthy,
the world will be at peace!
[15:59] Takeru
Those are really nice words.
[16:06] Mei
You think so, too?
[16:10] Mei
I'm glad.
[16:11] Mei
You know, 2,000 years ago,
[16:14] Mei
when I was given a position as an Eto-shin,
[16:16] Mei
those were the words of the person
who gave my life a purpose.
[16:20] Mei
You're a fascinating person, Takeru-san.
[16:22] Mei
I've never told anyone this before.
[16:27] Mei
Oh, you fell asleep?

It's gone...
[17:41] Nya
Sheesh, what a trouble-making virus.
[17:46] Nya
When did I end up naked?!
[17:50] Mei
You used all your Sol/Lull,
including your clothes,
[17:52] Mei
for that last retort.
[17:54] Nya
No way!
[17:56] Mei
That's just how much of your
heart you put into that whack.
[17:59] Mei
That was amazing, Nya-tan.
[18:00] Nya
Huh? R-Really?
[18:07] Nya
Oh, Takeru looks peaceful now!
[18:10] Mei
Now his treatment really is complete.

Ow! My hand hurts!

Oh, my. You've done too much smacking.

divine cold to Takeru-san.
[20:04] Nya
Oh, no, no, no! It couldn't be!

Nya-tan...

You let the divine cold virus beat you,

and even brought about a new variation.
[20:24] Mei
You are far too unhealthy.

prevent this from happening again.

To think you would worry

[03:19] Shima
Thanks. Sorry to put ya to the trouble.
[03:23] Takeru
It's okay.
[03:24] Takeru
So what did you want to talk about?
[03:28] Shima
It's about Nya-tan.
[03:30] Takeru
Okay...
[03:31] Shima
You might... not...
[03:33] Shima
have noticed, but...
[03:37] Takeru
It's okay. You can spit out the squid.
[03:40] Shima
No, I can't do that.
[03:43] Shima
You... grilled this... for me...
[03:48] Shima
I must finish it... gratefully.
[03:50] Takeru
You're very serious about
these things, huh?
[03:57] Shima
Anyway, you might not have noticed, but...
[04:00] Takeru
Yeah?
[04:01] Shima
Nya-tan will never join the
Chinese zodiac at this rate.
[04:04] Takeru
Probably not.
[04:05] Shima
What? When did ya realize it?
[04:07] Takeru
Quite a while ago.
[04:09] Shima
L-Looks like I underestimated ya a bit.
[04:12] Shima
That'll make this quick.
[04:14] Shima
Eto-musume earn gratitude from
humans through good conduct
[04:17] Shima
and grow by collecting their Sol/Lull.
[04:20] Shima
But...
[04:21] Takeru
I've never seen Nya-tan do anything
I'd call "good conduct."
[04:26] Shima
That's because the quality of
your Sol/Lull is too high...
[04:29] Shima
I think.
[04:30] Takeru
Huh?
[04:32] Shima
Just a tiny bit makes her crazy strong.
[04:34] Shima
Since she feels at ease knowin' such
convenient Sol/Lull is nearby...
[04:37] Shima
No, since she knows she can just
steal some if she needs to,
[04:41] Shima
she's not makin' any effort anymore.
[04:44] Takeru
That's true... I've never seen
her make any effort, either.
[04:49] Shima
At this rate, not only will she
[04:51] Shima
never join the zodiac,
but Chu-tan will destroy her.
[04:54] Takeru
Chu-tan...
[04:58] Shima
You may be poison to Nya-tan.
[05:02] Takeru
Poison?
[05:05] Shima
Despite how she is,
Nya-tan's my precious student.
[05:08] Shima
I can't just sit by and do nothin'.
[05:12] Shima
So...
[05:13] Shima
Tomorrow, I'm gonna challenge
Nya-tan to a battle.
[05:18] Shima
Depending on the outcome,
[05:19] Shima
I'll take Nya-tan away from
here on a training journey.
[05:23] Shima
Is that all right?
[05:24] Takeru
You don't have to ask me.
[05:26] Takeru
Nya-tan made her own decision to live here.
[05:28] Shima
Oh, right... Having her here is
a nuisance to you, isn't it?
[05:32] Takeru
I wouldn't say a nuisance...
Well, sometimes it is...
[05:35] Takeru
Wait, what are you doing?!
[05:36] Shima

About Nya-tan.
[06:11] Takeru
How do I feel? I'm not sure.
[06:13] Uri
Maybe it's not that you don't know,
but that you're trying not to think about it?
[06:17] Takeru
What's this about, Uri-tan?
You're digging pretty deep here.
[06:20] Uri
It's something I've always wondered.
[06:22] Uri
Why do you tend to hide how you feel?
[06:26] Takeru
I hate it when feelings I gave a lot
of thought to turn out to be wrong.
[06:31] Takeru
Anyway, goodnight.

Yeah.

So it has.

Seal battle or setting of conditions for victory,
any Eto-shin or Eto-musume may
receive any sort of help from a human,
as long as there is no danger to the human.
[11:30] Nya
Master!
[11:31] Nya
What are your rules?
[11:34] Shima
The rule is...
[11:42] Shima
A kick-the-can battle.
[11:45] Nya
Kick-the-can?
[11:46] Shima
I'm "it."
SIGN Sesame Oil
[11:47] Shima
Anyone who can kick this can
away from me even once wins.
[11:50] Nya
Even once?!
[11:51] Nya
Are you sure that's the rule you want?
[11:53] Shima
No problem here.
[11:55] Shima
That's just fine.
[12:06] Nya
Gather!
[12:11] Inu
Hey, Nya-tan, why'd you make us gather?
[12:14] Key
If we don't take this seriously,
we're gonna lose!
[12:16] Nya
I-It's a strategy meeting!
[12:18] Nya
We'll all work together to win!
[12:21] Inu
I-Isn't that unfair?
[12:22] Nya
If you can't win with strength,
you fight with this!
[12:27] Nya
It's a perfect strategy!
[12:28] Nya
She may be a master, but even she'll
have trouble taking us all at once.
[12:32] Key
You're right. Let's go with that.
[12:34] Inu
Okay. I want to get this scary
training battle over with quick.
[12:38] Nya
The important point is our teamwork.
[12:40] Nya
We've gotta be separate, but united.
[12:43] Shima
Done with your strategy meeting?
[12:50] ---
[12:52] Shima
Y'all are rarin' to go, huh?
[12:54] Shima
Then...
[12:55] Shima
Let's start the battle!
[13:00] Nya
While Master's distracted by
the other two attacking,
[13:03] Nya
I'll kick the can and win!
[13:09] Inu
Take this!
[13:20] Shima
Sneaky little tricks won't
get you into the zodiac.
[13:24] Shima
Didn't I tell you that?
[13:32] Key
Sheesh...
[13:33] Nya
Try harder, you zodiac brats!
[13:35] InuKey
No way. No way.
[13:36] Uri
That's what I call an underdog.
[13:38] Inu
Shut up!
[13:40] Uri
But there's still plenty of
time left in the episode.
[13:43] Takeru
You're saying stuff I don't
understand again, but...
[13:45] Takeru
Is Shima-tan really that strong?
[13:47] Inu
"Strong" doesn't even cover it.
[13:49] Key
There's a reason she's the master
of strength and techniques.
[13:52] Uri
Shima-tan is one of the
[13:54] Uri
four strongest Eto-shin.
[13:57] Takeru
Why four? That's kinda vague.
[14:01] Shima
What, they both surrendered already?
[14:05] Shima
They really are slackin' as zodiac gods.
[14:08] Shima
That saves ya some trouble.
[14:10] Shima
If you can kick this can, you get 'em both.
[14:14] Nya
Here I come!
[14:18] Nya
I hit it!
[14:22] Nya
This won't work! I need to
throw her off-balance!
[14:34] Shima
You haven't gotten any of
your strength back at all.
[14:38] Shima
In fact, you've gotten weaker.
[14:40] Nya
Master...
[14:42] Shima
At this rate, Chu-tan really will beat you!
[14:59] Dora
Chu-tan...
[15:01] Dora
Are you going to Nya-tan?
[15:04] Dora
Can't you just leave her alone now?
[15:08] Dora
You saw it in your battle
with her, didn't you?
[15:12] Dora
Nya-tan was eliminated 60 years ago,
[15:16] Dora
and she reincarnated...
[15:18] Dora
But she's lost all her memories and powers.
[15:23] Chu
My soul cries out,
[15:26] Chu
"Destroy the cat clan."
[15:29] Dora
Nya-tan is not the same
Nya-tan she was then!
[15:32] Dora
If you insist on fighting her,
I'll stop you as many times as it takes!
[15:36] Chu
What do you people think
[15:38] Chu
the strictly impartial ETM12 is?
[15:41] Chu
You can't stop me any longer.
[15:44] Chu
I have submitted a thirteenth
article to the Zodiac Precepts.
[15:48] Dora
What?!
[15:50] Dora
You've added a new article
to the Zodiac Precepts,
[15:53] Dora
the rules of the ETM12?
[15:54] Chu
Intervention in a battle
[15:56] Chu
by a third party will never again be permitted.
[16:07] Chu
You won't interfere.
[16:08] Dora
Chu-tan!
[16:11] Dora
What is that sinister Sol/Lull?
[16:15] Dora
Still...
[16:16] Dora
The Zodiac Precepts that have been upheld,
[16:19] Dora
unchanged, for 2,000 years...
[16:21] Dora
But there's still time before
[16:23] Dora
her new precept is enforced.
[16:26] Dora
Until then, Chu-tan shouldn't be
able to do anything, either.
[16:29] Dora
I must do something...
[16:37] Shima
No good...
[16:43] Shima
I'm going to end this now, Nya-tan.
[16:46] Shima
And then you're going to
leave Takeru's house!
[16:49] Nya
Why does it have to come to that?!
[16:51] Shima
Leaving you with Takeru will only
make you weaker and weaker.
[16:55] Shima
You just rely on him and
think frivolous thoughts...
[16:57] Nya
That's not true!
[16:58] Nya
Since I met Takeru, I've had all kinds of
[17:00] Nya
experiences and learned lots of things!
[17:03] Shima
Experiences? Learned?
[17:05] Shima
Like what?!
[17:06] Nya
Like what? A lot!
[17:09] Nya
I've made lots of memories with Takeru...
[17:14] Nya
Memories that make me...
[17:18] Nya
So many memories...
[17:30] Nya
L-Lots of memories...
[17:35] Nya
I don't have that many memories!
[17:38] Takeru
That's only natural.
We're not that deeply connected.
[17:42] Uri
Takeru-san, wouldn't you be
sad if Nya-tan went away?
[17:46] Takeru
Sad? I don't know...
[17:49] Takeru
I don't think I would.
[17:53] Shima
Hurry up and surrender, Nya-tan.
[17:55] Shima
Come with me to train and
start over from scratch!
[17:59] Nya
No!
[18:00] Shima
Why are ya so against the idea?
[18:02] Shima
You don't have any memories here!
[18:04] Nya
I don't now,
[18:06] Nya
but I'm going to make lots
[18:08] Nya
and lots of them!
[18:15] Shima
Is that only because ya want Sol/Lull?
[18:18] Shima
Because ya wanna use the human
[18:20] Shima
who happens to be here
to achieve your goal?
[18:23] Shima
Well, that is certainly a
clever way of thinking.
[18:27] Shima
In that case, you'll have
to use him to the fullest
[18:29] Shima
and take as much Sol/Lull as you can.
[18:32] Shima
Treat him not as a human,
but as a battery full of Sol/Lull!
[18:36] Nya
No!
[18:38] Nya
I don't want that!
[18:39] Nya
Takeru's Sol/Lull comes from
[18:41] Nya
his own kind heart.
[18:44] Nya
Takeru produces such amazing
[18:46] Nya
Sol/Lull because he is who he is!
[18:50] Nya
I've forgotten a lot of things.
[18:52] Nya
I don't even remember why I wanted to
[18:55] Nya
join the zodiac in the first place, but—
[19:00] Nya
Wh-When I'm with Takeru,
[19:03] Nya
sesame oil tastes better,
[19:05] Nya
hot baths feel nicer,
[19:07] Nya
and breakfast and trips out of the
house and everything else is fun!
[19:11] Nya
It's because Takeru is with me
[19:13] Nya
that I can give all I've got to making my
dream of joining the zodiac come true!
[19:17] Nya
He's not a battery!
[19:19] Nya
I can believe that because he's Takeru!
[19:28] Takeru
What makes you think
[19:30] Takeru
you can say I'm nice and all
that other weird stuff?
[19:33] Takeru
You really are a nuisance.
[19:36] Uri
Takeru-san...
[19:37] Takeru
But...
[19:38] Takeru
You're a nuisance, but... I guess it's fun.
[19:43] Shima
You say some real admirable things.
[19:45] Shima
But if you can't beat me,
[19:48] Shima
you won't get anywhere, let alone
become one of the zodiac.
[19:54] Shima
This is over.
[19:56] Nya
That's why I...
[19:58] Nya
Don't want to lose.
[20:01] Nya
I will win!
[20:04] Takeru
Look what a mess you are...
[20:07] Takeru
You're making me want to cheer you on.
[20:12] Takeru
Nya-tan, hang in there!
[20:18] Shima
This is...
[20:22] Nya
Here I come,
[20:23] Nya
Master!

Nya-tan...
[20:50] Takeru
Go!
[21:16] Voice
The battle is over.
[21:21] Shima
I see.
[21:23] Shima
So Takeru did that... Now it makes sense.
[21:26] Uri
Yep, yep.
[21:27] Uri
An Eto-musume ignites a human's
affections, and receives Sol/Lull.
[21:30] Uri
There's no problem with
that relationship at all.
[21:33] Shima
That's true.
[21:35] Shima
I never expected her to let loose
[21:37] Shima
a new move there, though.
[21:43] Nya
I got three more
[21:45] Nya
Sol/Lull Seals...
[21:47] Takeru
You were great. Good job.
[21:55] Uri
Everything's looking good.
[21:57] Shima
Hey, don't keep watchin' like that.
[22:00] Uri
Yep, yep, okay.

Soon, I will be able to destroy the cat.
[00:25] Chu

SIGN A Long, Serpentine Fate
[02:28] Nya
Where should we go next?
What should we buy?
[02:31] Nya
If we drag our feet, the day will
be over before we know it!
[02:35] Takeru
You're in an awfully good mood.
[02:37] Nya
Well, yeah! I learned a
lethal new technique!
[02:41] Nya
I'm getting so much stronger,
my own potential frightens me!
SIGN Neko Masshiguran
[02:47] Shar
Oh?
[02:48] Nya
Hey, Shar-tan! What are you up to?
[02:52] Takeru
What was that? I don't get it.
[02:56] Takeru
You're into gardening, Shar-tan?
[02:59] Shar
No. It's food for this little one.
[03:02] Both
"Little one"?
[03:03] Shar
Yes, this little one.
[03:04] Shar
I have to feed it poison regularly.
[03:07] Takeru
But that's just a hair ornament, isn't it?
[03:09] Nya
Wait! So is this a poisonous plant?!
[03:11] Takeru
No, that's a bay laure—
[03:14] Nya
It's bitter! I'm dying! I'm dying!
[03:16] Shar
That was a joke.
[03:17] Nya
Which part was the joke?!
[03:20] Shar
This isn't poisonous. It's a bay
laurel to use for cooking.
[03:23] Nya
Oh!
[03:25] Nya
So this snake is just a fake, too, right?
SIGN Chomp
[03:30] Nya
Ow!
[03:31] Shar
Be careful.
[03:32] Nya
Too late for that!
SIGN Hiss
[03:34] Shar
This really is a venomous snake.
[03:36] Nya
Seriously?!
[03:38] Nya
What?
[03:41] Nya
Hey! Why am I turning to stone?!
[03:43] Nya
W-Wait! Takeru, do somethi—
[03:46] Shar
Oh, dear.
[03:47] Takeru
Nya-tan! Nya-tan!
[03:48] Takeru
What do we do?!
[03:50] Shar
She needs the antidote,
or she'll be like that forever.
[03:53] Takeru
No way...
[03:54] Takeru
Where is the antidote?
[03:56] Shar
Let us embark on a journey, then.
[03:58] Takeru
Pardon?
[03:59] Shar
A journey to obtain the antidote.
[04:02] Takeru
Wh-What is...
[04:14] Shar
It's the snake train.
[04:15] Takeru
Snake... It's exactly what it looks like.
[04:17] Shar
Now, let's go.
[04:21] Takeru
A-All right.
[04:31] Takeru
What is this place?
[04:32] Shar
You're better off not knowing the details.
[04:35] Shar
For a human like you,
it's quite serpentine logic.
[04:40] Shar
That was a pun using "serpent,"
as in a snake—
[04:42] Takeru
Yeah, you don't have to explain. I got it.
[04:45] Shar
I see.
[04:46] Takeru
So this goes to a place where we can find
[04:48] Takeru
the antidote to return Nya-tan to normal?
[04:51] Shar
It might be there, and it might not be.
[04:53] Takeru
It might not?!
[04:54] Shar
Just kidding.
[04:55] Takeru
Which is it?!
[04:57] Shar
Look there.
[04:59] Shar
That's the Shrine of the Characters.
[05:02] Takeru
Huh?
SIGN Shrine of the
Characters
[05:11] Shar
We've arrived.
[05:12] Takeru
And the antidote is here?
[05:13] Shar
Since we're here,
let's do some sightseeing.
[05:18] Shar
Look. There's something over there.
[05:21] Takeru
What's that?
[05:29] Shar
Now, I'll explain.
[05:31] Takeru
What?
[05:33] Shar
Chu-tan.
[05:36] Shar
She is a very scrupulous Eto-shin who
addresses all things with sincerity.
[05:40] Shar
Her favorite food is a product
stumbled upon around 4,000 BC
[05:44] Shar
when cow milk stored in a bag made from
[05:45] Shar
a sheep's stomach hardened due
to the work of enzymes—
[05:47] Takeru
Cheese, right?
[05:51] Shar
She protects the southern Kanto region.
SIGN Rat
[05:55] Shar
Next is
SIGN Ox
[05:56] Shar
Mo-tan.
[05:57] Shar
She is a pervert.
[06:01] Shar
She's actually a vegetarian.
[06:03] Takeru
No way! Never expected that!
[06:05] Shar
She protects the Tokai region.
SIGN Ox
[06:09] Shar
Shima-tan has muscles ideal
for hand-to-hand combat,
SIGN Tiger
[06:12] Shar
so she's on the heavy side.
[06:14] Shar
Uh, is it okay to say that?
[06:15] Shar
Her favorite things are liquor, snacks,
[06:18] Shar
and the plate the snacks were on.
[06:19] Takeru
She likes the plate?!
[06:21] Takeru
So that's why she took my—
[06:22] Shar
She protects the Kinki region.
SIGN Tiger
[06:27] Shar
Usa-tan is ten kilograms
lighter than Shima-tan.
[06:30] Takeru
Again, you shouldn't say that...
[06:33] Shar
She protects Hokuriku.
SIGN Rabbit
[06:37] Shar
Dora-tan is an adequate C-cup.
[06:39] Takeru
Hey!
[06:41] Shar
She protects the Tosan region.
SIGN Dragon
[06:43] Shar
And when I say C-cup, I mean
[06:46] Shar
the difference between the top and under—
[06:47] Takeru
Next, please!
[06:50] Shar
I protect the Chugoku region.
[06:52] Takeru
That's it?
[06:53] Shar
You should learn many things
about me on this journey.
SIGN Snake
[06:59] Shar
Uma-tan is haunted by the
unpleasant sound of her name.
[07:02] Shar
Rat, ox, tiger, rabbit,
[07:04] Shar
dragon, snake... snake...
[07:06] Takeru
Oh, come on. Remember her.
SIGN Horse
[07:09] Shar
She protects the Kyushu region.
[07:11] Shar
Mei-tan's greatest concern
is her yearly shearing.
[07:14] Takeru
Shearing?
[07:15] Shar
Every hair on her body is shaved off.
[07:17] Takeru
Please don't lie.
SIGN Sheep
[07:20] Shar
She protects Hokkaido.
[07:22] Takeru
Can we get to searching for
Nya-tan's antidote soon?
[07:26] Shar
Key-tan protects northern Kanto,
Piyo-tan protects Tohoku,
[07:29] Shar
Inu-tan protects Shikoku,
and Uri-tan protects Okinawa.
[07:32] Takeru
Thanks for consolidating those.
[07:34] Shar
You're welcome.
[07:35] Takeru
When I see it this way,
[07:37] Takeru
I can tell the zodiac really
does protect all of Japan.
[07:40] Shar
Exactly.
[07:41] Shar
That's why we can't lose
even one of the twelve.
[07:45] Shar
It looks like the antidote isn't here.
[07:48] Takeru
We haven't even looked for it...
[07:51] Shar
Oh, dear. We need to hurry back,
or the curator will appoint us.
[07:55] Takeru
Okay, okay. Let's get going.
[08:01] Shar
That was a close one.
[08:03] Takeru
Um, this is a journey to
[08:06] Takeru
get the antidote to fix Nya-tan, right?
[08:09] Shar
Yes. It's not a recap
episode, by any means.
[08:12] Takeru
Recap... episode?
[08:14] Voice
The next stop is the Shrine
of the ETM12 Setting.
[08:18] Voice
Shrine of the ETM12 Setting.
[08:29] Shar
Don't touch this reflective water.
[08:31] Takeru
Why not?
[08:33] Shar
The water is difficult to animate.
[08:35] Shar
They can't use as many
cels in a recap episode.
[08:37] Takeru
I'm sorry. I have no idea
what you're talking about.
[08:41] Shar
I'm going to give you a review
of what the ETM12 is.
SIGN Zodiac Precepts
[08:45] Shar
The ETM12 is carried out
[08:47] Shar
according to the Zodiac Precepts.
[08:50] Takeru
Zodiac Precepts?
[08:52] Shar
Twelve rules established by the gods.
SIGN Dragon
[08:58] Uri
The Eto-shin Selection Festival,
held once every sixty years,
[09:01] Uri
where Eto-musume can attain the rank
of Eto-shin with their own fists...
[09:04] Uri
That's the ETM12!
[09:07] Uri
For Nya-tan to become an Eto-shin,
[09:08] Uri
she must defeat all twelve Eto-shin in
battle while the ETM12 is in progress
[09:11] Uri
and obtain all of their Sol/Lull Seals.
[09:20] Takeru
If she loses her Sol/Lull Seal,
SIGN Cat
[09:22] Takeru
she can't participate in the ETM12, right?
[09:25] Shar
Correct. Nor can she transform
into Pretty Mode anymore.
[09:29] Nya
Etotama! Sol/Lull Charge!
SIGN Cat
[09:32] Takeru
With stuff like this,
[09:33] Takeru
they're usually larger and tougher-looking
after they transform, right?
[09:37] Takeru
So why do they get smaller?
[09:39] Shar
It's a result of them being condensed.
[09:41] Takeru
Condensed?
[09:42] Shar
Sol/Lull from humans collects in
[09:45] Shar
our Etotama, our souls,
[09:48] Shar
and converted into our battle power.
[09:50] Shar
It's when we're the most
tightly-packed with power.
[09:53] Takeru
Sounds kinda like 100%
juice from concentrate.
[09:57] Takeru
By the way, there are
[09:59] Takeru
108 Eto-musume participating
in the ETM12, right?
[10:02] Shar
That's right.
[10:03] Takeru
I've never met any other than Nya-tan.
[10:07] Shar
All the other Eto-musume
[10:09] Shar
were defeated by Chu-tan.
[10:13] Takeru
Chu-tan is that strong?
[10:16] Shar
Since the ETM12 of 2,000 years ago,
[10:19] Shar
Chu-tan has been the most powerful,
and the leader of the Eto-shin.
[10:23] Takeru
Wasn't the ETM12 of 2,000 years ago...
[10:26] (Flashback) Dora
It's true that the ETM12 of
[10:29] (Flashback) Dora
2,000 years ago was a footrace.
[10:31] (Flashback) Shima
And the twelve Zodiac gods chosen
then were the current twelve.
[10:35] (Flashback) Takeru
But that means the cat should hate the rat.
[10:39] (Flashback) Takeru
Why does Chu-tan hate Nya-tan?
[10:43] Shar
The connection between the cat and rat is
[10:46] Shar
a complex, elaborate tangle.
[10:48] Shar
If we tried to undo it by force,
they would surely be torn apart and die.
[10:51] Takeru
Is there something you know, Shar-tan?
[10:54] Shar
Well,
[10:55] Shar
I might know, or I might not know.
[11:00] Shar
Oh, it's that time already?
[11:02] Shar
Time to head for the next shrine.
SIGN
If an Eto-shin loses a Sol/Lull Seal battle,
her Sol/Lull Seal will be transferred to the
Eto-musume who defeated her.
The Eto-shin may continue to participate
in the ETM12 with a new Sol/Lull Seal.
SIGN
An Eto-musume who loses a Sol/Lull Seal battle
against an Eto-shin will lose her own Sol/Lull Seal,
and her right to participate in the current ETM12 will be revoked.
[11:19] Shar
Incidentally, how do you...
[11:22] Shar
How do you feel about Nya-tan?
[11:25] Takeru
Huh?
[11:26] Takeru
Actually,
[11:28] Takeru
Shima-tan and Uri-tan both asked
me the same thing recently.
[11:33] Takeru
When I first met her,
I had no idea what to do, but...
[11:35] Shar
It seems...
[11:38] Shar
That you are not so opposed
to a recap episode anymore.
[11:41] Takeru
What do you mean?
[11:43] Shar
You just gave me a line that will
[11:45] Shar
let us transition smoothly
into a flashback scene.
[11:48] Shar
Though, we already threw in a
few flashback scenes earlier.
[11:52] Takeru
You're kidding!
[11:53] Shar
You understand well how this should flow.
[11:55] Shar
You're very clever.
[11:57] Voice
The next stop is the Shrine of
Reviewing the Story Thus Far.
[12:01] Shar
We can stay on the train
from this point on.
[12:01] Voice
Shrine of Reviewing the Story Thus Far.
[12:04] Takeru
Huh?
[12:05] Shar
The snake train is about to molt.
[12:07] Takeru
Molt?!

Just kidding.

This is tiring...

Pleased to meet you. I'm Uri-tan.
[13:14] (Flashback) Takeru
So I might as well ask...
Where'd you come from?
[13:17] (Flashback) ---
From this hole.
SIGN Hole
[13:19] (Flashback) Takeru
I should've known...
[13:20] (Flashback) Takeru
Where does that hole lead to?
[13:22] (Flashback) Uri
The world of the gods.

You know all these people, right?
[13:35] (Flashback) Uri
Yep, yep.
[13:36] (Flashback) Shima
Nya-tan can't help that. She's got amnesia.
[13:39] (Flashback) Mei
She's forgotten a lot of important things.
[13:43] (Flashback) Mei
Poor girl...
[13:46] (Flashback) Nya
Everyone working hard?
[13:48] (Flashback) Takeru
Huh? What are the Eto-shin doing here?
[13:52] (Flashback) Nya
They all work at this café.
[13:54] (Flashback) Takeru
They work?
[13:55] (Flashback) Takeru
Isn't Sol/Lull all they need?
[13:58] (Flashback) Usa
Sol/Lull and money are
two different things.
[14:01] (Flashback) Shima
The more money you have, the better.
[14:03] (Flashback) Shima
It never gets in the way.
[14:04] (Flashback) Shima
Right, Shar-tan?
[14:06] (Flashback) Shar
Yes.
[14:07] (Flashback) Takeru
She's playing the stock market!
[14:09] (Flashback) Shar
For me, it's a piece of cake.
[14:13] Takeru
You're still dealing in stocks?
[14:15] Shar
Yes.
[14:16] Takeru
That seems difficult.
[14:17] Shar
Even without doing anything extraordinary,
[14:19] Shar
it's possible to gain
extraordinary results.
[14:23] Shar
As long as you follow the basic rules.
[14:25] Takeru

So this is where you are.
[14:33] (Flashback) Uri

[14:34] (Flashback) Takeru

[14:35] (Flashback) Uri
She's the rat Eto-shin.
[14:38] (Flashback) Chu
I will only destroy the cat clan.

If it gets dangerous, surrender right away.
[14:44] (Flashback) Shima
Got that, idiot student?
[14:47] (Flashback) Dora
What are you trying to do?
[14:49] (Flashback) Uri
I'm going to intervene in the battle.
[14:51] (Flashback) Dora
Intervene?!
[14:52] (Flashback) Shima
Even if you're an Eto-shin, doin'
somethin' that crazy will mess you up!
[14:55] (Flashback) Uri
Still!
[14:57] (Flashback) Uri
Nya-tan is my friend.
[14:58] (Flashback) Uri
I can't just keep watching this!

we reincarnate after a

hot baths feel nicer,

and breakfast and trips out of the

It's because Takeru is with me

that I can give all I've got to making my

You've been watching her, I see.
[18:54] Shar
I believe Nya-tan trusts you.
[18:56] Takeru
Trusts me? You think so?
[18:59] Shar
By becoming involved with a human like you,
[19:02] Shar
Nya-tan changed.
[19:04] Shar
You changed, as well.
[19:07] Shar
Lives change by becoming
involved with other lives.
[19:11] Shar
But those changes
[19:13] Shar
may not always be for the better.
[19:18] Takeru
Looks like we're done with the review.
[19:20] Shar
Yes.
[19:21] Takeru
Um... And the antidote...?
[19:23] Shar
It wasn't here, it seems.
[19:25] Takeru
You didn't even look for it, did you?
[19:28] Shar
Let's search there next.
[19:38] Takeru
What is this?
[19:40] Shar
This is Nya-tan's shrine.
[19:42] Takeru
What? This place?
[19:44] Shar
It must be because her soul
hasn't completely regenerated.
[19:49] Shar
Oh?
[19:50] Takeru
Sol/Lull? No, it's not...
[19:53] Takeru
Nya-tan's... memories?
[19:56] Takeru
What does this mean?
[19:58] Takeru
If we take these back to Nya-tan,
[20:01] Takeru
will she remember more?
[20:03] Shar
Why would you make her remember?
[20:06] Shar
Something sad may have happened.
[20:08] Shar
Do you want to have a part in
the things she's sealed away?
[20:13] Takeru
I'm not a god or an Eto-musume,
[20:15] Takeru
so maybe it's strange for me to say...
[20:18] Takeru
But I'm the one able to support
Nya-tan the most right now,
[20:21] Takeru
aren't I?
[20:23] Shar
When on a journey, everyone
experiences meetings,
[20:26] Shar
partings, and lessons.
[20:29] Shar
And they halt the train at the stop
they've found just for themselves.
[20:32] Shar
I only wanted to see what stop
you would find, Takeru.
[20:37] Takeru
I want to see all of Nya-tan's
memories here before I go back.
[20:41] Shar
That's not possible.
[20:42] Shar
This place will soon disappear.
[20:45] Takeru
What?
[20:49] Voice
Shar-tan's special curry is done.
[20:53] Shar
It's finally finished.
[20:55] ---
[20:58] Takeru
Wow. Looks tasty.
[21:00] Shar
This curry is the antidote.
[21:02] Takeru
You're kidding me!
[21:03] Shar
It needs plenty of time to cook
in order to undo petrification.
[21:07] Shar
Oh... The bay leaves you
grew are in it, too.
[21:10] Shar
They should actually be removed
before the roux goes in.
[21:13] Takeru
Wait, you're not saying this whole journey
[21:15] Takeru
was to kill time while the
curry cooked, are you?

Yet...
SIGN Takamagahara Commemorative Maid Café Eto Manager's Cup God Viewership Ratings
[03:40] Uma
As you can see, the viewers
among the gods have plummeted.
[03:44] Uma
The previous Takamagahara
Commemorative Maid Café Eto

[03:50] Uma
If it drops below 1%, it will be canceled!

God viewership rating?
[03:56] Uri
It's what it sounds like:
the number of gods who watch it.
[03:59] Uri
All divine rituals are
overseen by the many gods.
[04:02] Uri
The more important or noteworthy the ritual,
[04:05] Uri
the higher the god ratings.
[04:08] Takeru
Oh...
[04:09] Shar
You are included in the god
viewership rating, as well.
[04:11] Takeru
Huh?
[04:12] Shar
You watch the ETM12 on the
Sol/Lull TV, do you not?
[04:16] Shar
That registers as god viewership.
[04:20] Takeru
Really? I'm not a god, though...
[04:22] Mei
You're a unique situation, Takeru-san.
[04:25] Shima
Yeah. Normally the Sol/Lull TV is
[04:27] Shima
only summoned in front of gods.
[04:29] Shima
So if there's a boring ritual
or dull program on,

the gods turn the Sol/Lull TV off.
[04:35] Uma
The process isn't that simple!
SIGN Takamagahara Commemorative Maid Café Eto Manager's Cup
[04:38] Uma
Now, instead of watching in
real time, many gods record it,
[04:41] Uma
or watch via methods that

aren't reflected in the ratings...
[04:45] Uri
Incidentally, I prefer to record things
and watch them at my leisure.

Ditto!

And that's why our god
ratings are dropping!

Yeah, and then I can't be bothered
to watch and just delete them.

Oh, if you buy the Blu-rays,
that won't happen.

I'm not buying those.
I don't have the money.

Don't just watch with a dumb look on
your face! If you watch it, buy it!

[06:40] Nya
No meaning? You're exaggerating!
[06:43] Nya
If you want god ratings, just strip!

Take it off!
[06:47] Mo
I wanna see Nya-tan fully nude! Come on!
[06:52] Mo
I'll take 'em off for you!

Not happening!
[06:58] Mo
Ouch!
[06:59] Mo
But that was pretty nice, too...
[07:02] Nya
Get lost, pervert!
[07:05] Uma
A vulgar idea such as nudity
is out of the question.
[07:09] Uma
We must make this a thrilling race that
[07:11] Uma
will resonate directly
in the god ratings.
[07:14] Uma
I can't say this too loud,
[07:16] Uma
but this is a raging battle
against the gods!
[07:20] Uma
Now, everyone, until the start
of the race, let us discuss—
[07:25] Uma
E-Everyone?
[07:27] Inu
I just can't get fired up about this.
[07:29] Key
It's kinda tiring.
[07:31] Nya
Instead of humiliating yourself fighting
for it, you should just call it off.
[07:34] Piyo
You're not even one of the zodiac,
stupid cat! This isn't your business!
[07:38] Piyo
Stay out of it!
[07:39] Nya
Huh? But even if you bust your butt to win,
[07:42] Nya
there's no prize or anything.
[07:44] Uma
Of course there isn't.
[07:46] Uma
There's meaning in seeing the
race through to the end!
[07:50] Nya
What a boring race!
[07:52] Uma
It's not an issue of whether
it's boring or not!

Enough insolent talk!

However, the cat does have a point.

If they are unmotivated,

It's been remade into curry.

Super tasty!

Impressive as always, Manager.

She's right. You really are
amazing, Mr. Manager.

A divine ritual should be carried
out for the gods and the people,

Nya-tan has lost this game.
[04:43] Nya
What?
[04:44] Nya
Why? How did I lose?
[04:47] Takeru
When your king is cornered, you lose.
[04:50] Piyo
This is not worth my time.
[04:52] Piyo
You can never defeat me with
that childish mentality.
[04:56] Nya
Don't lecture me like some bigshot
over a dumb game like shogi!
[05:01] Takeru
Nya-tan, shogi is not a "dumb game."
[05:04] Takeru
Shogi is the universe.
[05:06] Nya
Sorry, Takeru, you keep saying that,
[05:09] Nya
but I have no idea what it means.
[05:11] Piyo
Indeed...
[05:12] Piyo
Shogi is the universe.
[05:15] Takeru
Shogi is numbers, flow, and logic.
[05:19] Takeru
Within that framework,
energy streams outward,
[05:23] Takeru
never breaking, always upholding the rules.
[05:26] Takeru
Just like the universe,
[05:27] Takeru
still expanding infinitely even now.
[05:32] Piyo
Shogi is body, mind, and existence itself.
[05:36] Piyo
It is all living things in
this world materialized.
[05:40] Piyo
It is born and grows within us,
[05:43] Piyo
sometimes changing as we
battle with ourselves.
[05:46] Piyo
It is eternal.
[05:48] Piyo
It only makes sense to liken such a thing to
[05:51] Piyo
the universe that gave our
world its beginning.
[05:53] Nya
Um, um...
[05:55] Nya
Okay, just take three steps
and forget everythi—
[05:58] Takeru
You can't pretend it never happened
[06:00] Takeru
just because it's turned into a pain.
[06:03] Nya
I'll make you see that no matter
what cool things you say,
[06:05] Nya
you'll forget it instantly anyway!
[06:08] Piyo
I know that!
[06:10] Piyo
Once I take three steps, I forget.
[06:13] Piyo
I forget almost everything.
[06:15] Piyo
But as is the nature of the rooster clan,

only negative emotions remain in me forever,

piling higher and higher.

complete, I'll play you again.

on the line this time.
[07:04] Nya
All right! I'll be waiting!

Takeru, train me!
[07:16] Takeru
Nya-tan, you already know how
each piece moves, right?
[07:21] Nya
Of course I do! Perfectly!
[07:23] Inu
That's a huge shogi board!

expressed through the power of Eto-shin.

In the form of trauma.

So this training is to make

[08:45] Takeru
That's it for today!
[08:47] Takeru
All right, let's begin today's training.

Okay!
[08:54] Takeru
Today, we'll use Dora-tan's special

Shogi Master Training Screen Door Board
[08:59] Takeru
to play blindfolded shogi.
[09:01] Nya
Blindfolded shogi?
[09:03] Takeru
You play shogi in your head.
[09:06] Takeru
Picture the shogi board, imagine your hand,
[09:09] Takeru
and predict the opponent's moves.
[09:10] Nya
I can't do that!
[09:12] Takeru
If you can't do this,
you can never beat Piyo-tan.
[09:17] Nya
Okay, fine! I'll do it!
[09:19] Nya
7-6, pawn!
[09:22] Takeru
Then I'll...
[09:23] Nya
Where? Where?!
[09:27] Nya
That's dangerous!
[09:28] Takeru
That was 8-4, pawn.
[09:30] Takeru
You need to predict where I'll move
and dodge it, or you'll be stabbed.
[09:34] Uri
Yep, yep!
[09:35] Nya
Are you serious?
[09:36] Nya
In that case...
[09:37] Nya
6-8, silver!
[09:40] Takeru
6-2, silver!
[09:42] Takreu
That one might have been easy to predict.
[09:45] Nya
5-6, pawn!
[09:49] Takeru
That was 5-4, pawn!
[09:55] Nya
Hey, you boar!
[09:56] Uri
I just added a little spice to it.
[09:58] Nya
Don't spice it up without warning!
[10:00] Nya
And you know, I can't
think calmly like this!

You won't always be in situations

[13:02] Takeru
You read my moves perfectly!

Shogi is all about getting

Knowing what your opponent is thinking,

Nya-tan said, "If you get careless because

you think I'm a lower rank, you'll lose."
[16:10] Takeru
And Piyo-tan said,
"That confidence just because

You thought you had arrived

but you were still adrift in the
midst of this great river.

I don't remember at all.
[05:12] Mo
It was a proposal! For sure!
[05:16] Nya
The way perverts can fill in mental blanks
exceeds the comprehension of normal people.
[05:20] Takeru
I don't know what really happened,
[05:22] Takeru
but I think not remembering you proposed
[05:24] Takeru
to someone is pretty cruel.
[05:26] Mo
It's all right.
[05:29] Mo
The fact she could say it
naturally enough to forget about it
[05:32] Mo
makes me so happy.

[05:37] Mo
I recorded it with this tape player,

[05:42] Takeru
Wow, she has physical evidence...
[05:44] Nya
Give me that!
[05:45] Mo
Okay,
[05:47] Mo
but only if you'll trade your socks for it.
[05:51] Mo
What'll it be?

O-Okay, fine...
SIGN th Sock
[06:05] Mo
I got my 67th sock from Nya-tan!

[06:12] Mo
By the way...
[06:13] Mo
I have infinite copies.
[06:15] Nya
What?!
[06:16] Takeru
Well, that's what most people would do.
[06:20] Mo
Tonight I'll have a drink
with this on the side!
[06:23] Nya
Wait!
[06:25] Mo
I'm through waiting.
[06:27] Mo
This is my dream...
[06:29] Mo
My dream is to make a bed
cover from Nya-tan's socks!
[06:33] Mo
Then I can smell Nya-tan all the time!

Don't talk about dreams
no one asked to hear!

[06:45] Shima
Did ya see that urgent news?
[06:48] Shima
I never thought it would
actually be implemented.
[06:51] Dora
The thirteenth Zodiac Precept...
[06:54] Dora
Third parties will no longer be permitted
to intervene in Sol/Lull battles.
[06:59] Shima
Chu-tan's about to make her move.
[07:02] Uri
This happened because I butted in...
[07:04] Dora
You weren't butting in.
[07:07] Dora
If you hadn't rushed in to save her,
[07:09] Dora
Nya-tan would've been destroyed.
[07:11] Shima
But no one can rush in to help her now.
[07:14] Dora
Indeed.
[07:15] Dora
At this point, all we can do is
count on Nya-tan's own strength.
[07:21] Shima
What? Ya don't look convinced.
[07:24] Uri
Nya-tan's strength now doesn't
even compare to her strength
[07:27] Uri
when she fought you at
Takeru-san's house.
[07:30] Shima
That's right. She's stronger now.
[07:33] Dora
Yes, Nya-tan has grown stronger.
[07:36] Dora
Almost strong enough that I wouldn't
mind giving her my Sol/Lull Seal.
[07:39] Shima
Then—
[07:39] Dora
However...
[07:41] Dora
What has me a little concerned
[07:43] Dora
is Nya-tan's amnesia.
[07:46] Dora
I have a feeling that somewhere
in her lost memories
[07:49] Dora
lies the key to determining the future.
[07:52] Dora
And there's Chu-tan's strength, as well.
[07:55] Dora
It already surpasses
anything we can imagine.
[08:01] Uri
She's that strong?
[08:02] Dora
To make absolutely certain,
I want to get Nya-tan's memories back.
[08:08] Shima
All right.
[08:16] Mo
There's really no place like home.
[08:21] Mo
As thanks for this,
[08:22] Mo
I'll make my honey a grand dinner
[08:24] Mo
using produce from my homeland.
[08:32] Nya
What'd you do that for?!
[08:33] Dora
There was a mosquito.
[08:35] Nya
Oh! Thank you, Master!
[08:37] Dora
I guess that isn't enough
to get her memories back.
[08:41] Takeru
Um, what are you doing?
[08:43] Shima
We're gonna be living here from now on.
[08:46] Takeru
What?
[08:47] Shima
Oh, don't mind us.
[08:49] Shima
We'll build our own rooms
with Dora-tan's Sol/Lull.
[08:52] Takeru
Uh, no, the problem isn't
anything physical like that...
[08:56] Takeru
Ah, the mysteries of feminine appeal.

Dora-tan and Shima-tan are gonna live here?
[09:01] Dora

Are you guys...
[09:24] Takeru
trying to get Nya-tan's memories back?
[09:27] Takeru
And with such classic methods...
[09:30] Takeru
Why all of a sudden?
[09:32] Dora
Chu-tan is on the move again.
[09:36] Uri
To avoid the worst case scenario,
[09:38] Uri
we thought it would be best to get
[09:41] Uri

as we protect her.
[09:45] Takeru

[09:48] Takeru
Something important might
[09:50] Takeru
really be hidden in her memories.

Just now.

Water is precious, you know.

Since it's raining,
I decided to have a bath.

So, whose graves are those?

My family's.
[12:01] Nya
Oh, I heard about that from Chu-tan.
[12:04] Nya
You join human families and live with them.
[12:08] Mo
But everyone in my family dies before me.
[12:12] Nya
Well, human life is limited.
[12:15] Nya
They can't stay with you forever.
[12:17] Mo
Understand...
[12:19] Mo
But... I'm sad.
[12:21] Mo
I have many happy experiences
living with them,
[12:25] Mo
but it's sad when I have to say goodbye.
[12:29] Nya
But you won't stop living
with human families?
[12:32] Mo
I just hope I can make
[12:34] Mo
a few more humans smile by
joining their families.
[12:41] Nya
If you want to make people smile,

I think you need to smile more yourself.

What?!
[12:51] Mo
What are you doing?
[12:54] Nya
I'm gonna wash away your tears
and put a smile on your face!

You don't have to do that!
[12:59] Mo
I'll just get sad again...
[13:01] Nya
Then I'll be your family, too!
[13:04] Nya
I won't die, so you don't have to worry.

I'll always smile with you!

That we can be more lovey-dovey and
have a more medium-rare relationship!
[13:40] Mo
Where are you planning to go with
such a mean look on your face?
[13:44] Chu
I have only one goal.
[13:46] Chu
To destroy the cat clan.
[13:55] Chu
Out of my way.
[13:56] Mo
That's not going to happen.
[13:58] Chu
Then I will destroy you, as well.
[14:00] Mo
That's not going to happen, either.
[14:03] Chu
You were defeated by the cat.
[14:05] Chu
I don't have to listen to
your frivolous chatter.
[14:07] Mo
That's right. I lost to Nya-tan.
[14:11] Mo
But...
[14:13] Mo
I won't lose to anyone else.

Very well.

Chu-tan...
[15:42] Mo

[15:47] Chu
I told you.
[15:48] Chu
I'm testing it on you.
[15:51] Mo
What?
[15:52] Chu
Secret technique:
[15:53] Chu
Etotama Kagura Senguu!
[15:58] Dora
Etotama Kagura Senguu?!
[16:00] Shima
She can use that technique?
[16:02] Nya
What is that?
SIGN Kagura Senguu
[16:03] Dora
Kagura Senguu is a forbidden ritual that
[16:06] Dora
only the gods can perform.
SIGN Cat
[16:09] Shima
You could call it our origin,
the creator and destroyer of Etotama.
[16:13] Shima
It's the work of the gods.
[16:15] Takeru
The gods?
[16:16] Uri
It looks like Chu-tan has sublimated a
[16:19] Uri
godly technique into an Eto-shin technique.
[16:23] Mo
When did you learn that technique?
[16:25] Chu
I don't remember.
[16:27] Chu
But it may have been sixty years ago.
[16:31] Mo
Sixty years ago?
[16:32] Mo
You don't mean...
In your battle with Nya-tan?!
[16:36] Chu
I had that cat's
[16:38] Chu
Etotama in my hand...
SIGN Cat
[16:41] Chu
But...
[16:43] Mo
I see...
[16:44] Mo
So that's what happened.
[16:46] Mo
Nya-tan's Etotama was injured
[16:50] Mo
by Etotama Kagura Senguu...
[16:54] Uri
So that's why she only retained
parts of her memories,
[16:57] Uri
and ended up with amnesia.
[17:00] Chu
Why didn't the cat's Etotama break?
[17:04] Mo
Because of love!
[17:05] Mo
It was love! Love!
[17:08] Chu
Are you joking around?!
[17:11] Mo
I am not joking!
[17:13] Mo
You just haven't figured it out!
[17:15] Chu
Me?
[17:17] Mo
That's right!
[17:18] Mo
You loved Nya-tan, and that's why—
[17:22] Chu
Don't be ridiculous!
[17:25] Mo
Love is not ridiculous...
[17:29] Mo
At all!
[17:35] Mo
I feel the same way,

so I understand!

If you destroy Mo-tan, the balance
of all creation will fall apart!

If you do that, terrible things will happen

[19:37] Chu
I don't care about that.

Then you understand, right?
[05:49] Mo
Chu-tan's special attack,
[05:51] Mo
the secret technique Etotama Kagura Senguu,
[05:53] Mo
is a dreadful technique.
[05:56] Mo
If you can't defeat that technique,
[05:59] Mo
you'll never claim victory over Chu-tan.
[06:01] Nya
Th-That's right...
[06:03] Mo
That's why, before I gave up,
[06:06] Mo
I sent some of my own Sol/Lull into
Chu-tan to stop her rampage.
[06:10] Mo
I don't know how long my exhausted Sol/Lull

[07:02] Dora
This is...
[07:03] Dora
The repair of Nya-tan's
[07:05] Dora
damaged Etotama has begun.
[07:07] Shima
Is it Mo-tan's power?
[07:09] Dora
Most likely.
[07:11] Uri
If Nya-tan's Etotama is repaired after being
[07:13] Uri
damaged by Etotama Kagura Senguu...
[07:16] Uri
That means her memories
might return, if all goes well.
[07:20] Usa
Will having her memories back be useful?
[07:23] Dora
Nya-tan possesses a knack for fighting
that even I willingly acknowledge.
[07:27] Dora
If her memories return, she may be
able to curb Chu-tan's rampage.
[07:31] Inu
You mean it? That's great!
[07:32] Key
With the strongest Eto-shin back,
all of this will be solved!
[07:35] Shima
Yep!
[07:36] Takeru
You all...
[07:38] Takeru
You all want Nya-tan to go back
to the way she was, right?
[07:44] Uri
If we had to say whether we do or not...
[07:47] Uri
We do.
[07:49] Uri
Nya-tan was an Eto-musume we could
[07:51] Uri
always count on when we needed her.
[07:53] Uma
It's just that she was
a bit too carefree...
[07:56] Uma
She always hated to be tied down.
[08:00] Piyo
That's probably why the stupid
cat always blew off everything
[08:04] Piyo
and took off on her own solo journeys.
[08:07] Shima
We did all we could to utilize
Nya-tan's immense power
[08:09] Shima
for the protection of this country...
[08:14] Dora
But our efforts failed.
[08:16] Key
I couldn't believe it when Chu-tan said
she lied and stopped Nya-tan
[08:20] Key
from running in the footrace.
[08:22] Usa
Had Nya-tan become an Eto-shin,
[08:25] Usa
it's unlikely she could have
done the job properly.
[08:28] Piyo
Which just means Chu-tan's
judgment was correct.
[08:31] Shima
Well, yeah, but still...
[08:34] Takeru
The Nya-tan from before, huh?
[08:40] Nya
Hey!
[08:42] Nya
I'm back!
[08:43] Nya
Everything went perfectly again this time!
[08:47] Chu
It did, huh?
[08:48] Mo
Nya-tan,
[08:49] Mo
we're in the middle of an
important Eto-shin meeting.
[08:52] Nya
Well, then! This will make the
perfect snack for your meeting!
[08:56] Nya
A souvenir! Here!
[08:58] Nya
Your souvenir is...
SIGN squirm wriggle
[09:01] Nya
An eel!
[09:03] Usa
How is this an eel?!
[09:05] Uma
That's the tail of the
Eight-Branched Serpent!
[09:07] Nya
Huh?
[09:09] Piyo
What are you doing?!
[09:12] Piyo
Damn it, Nya-tan!
[09:14] Nya
Tee-hee!
[09:15] Mei
Oh, dear...
[09:17] Key
Chu-tan, do something.
[09:19] Chu
For goodness' sake...
[09:21] Nya
Whoopsie, whoopsie!
[09:29] Mei
Amazing!
[09:30] Shar
I expected no less.
[09:34] Piyo
Ow...
[09:36] Piyo
Hey, Nya-tan! What do you think you're—
[09:39] Uri
She's not here anymore.
SIGN Tch
[09:42] Inu
What the heck was that?
[09:43] Key
Beats me.
[09:44] Chu
Always so quick to run away...
[10:03] Mei
She's calmed down.
[10:06] Shar
Yes.
[10:07] Mei
I'm sorry, Chu-tan.
[10:09] Mei
I should have examined you sooner.
[10:13] Shar
You couldn't help it.
[10:15] Shar
We all made light of the
changes she was undergoing.
[10:20] Shar
Is her condition critical?
[10:21] Mei
For the moment,
[10:23] Mei
Mo-tan's Sol/Lull is keeping it in check,
[10:26] Mei
but Chu-tan's Sol/Lull is
still out of control.
[10:30] Shar
What can we do?
[10:32] Mei
I don't know yet.
[10:34] Mei
But our only choice is to
delay her Sol/Lull's rampage
[10:36] Mei
while we find a way to treat her.
[10:39] Shar
Delay it?
[10:40] Mei
If we can get
[10:42] Mei
Sol/Lull from all of the
others in the zodiac...
[10:46] Shar
I understand.
[10:47] Shar
I want to...
[10:53] Shar
Stop crying now, Chu-tan.
[10:57] Chu
B-But, Master...
[11:00] Chu
As weak as I am, there's no way
I can protect this country.
[11:04] Shar
Your best feature is your honest heart,
[11:08] Shar
and that honest heart is also your weakness.
[11:14] Shar
Don't forget that.
[11:20] Shar
I want to save her.
SIGN An Eto-musume's core;
a crystallization of the feelings and imaginations of humans.
Provided her Etotama is intact, an Eto-musume may be reincarnated.
SIGN Eto-musume cannot create their own Sol/Lull.
Eto-shin may transfer the Sol/Lull they receive through
the devotion of humans among one another.
[11:38] Chu
What's wrong?
[11:39] Mei
I-I'm sorry.
[11:41] Mei
I'm so powerless, I still can't believe I was
[11:44] Mei
able to become an Eto-shin.
[11:47] Chu
That's not true.
[11:49] Chu
Your duty is to protect the
health of humans, correct?
[11:54] Mei
Can I really do that?
[11:57] Chu
You can.
[11:58] Chu
If everyone is healthy,
the world will be at peace.
[12:11] Mei
Everyone!
[12:13] Mei
I have a favor to ask of you!
[12:15] Uri
A favor? What is it?
[12:17] Mei
I just went to see Chu-tan...
[12:21] Shima
Why'd ya do that?!
[12:23] Mei
Looking after everyone's
health is part of my job.
[12:26] Mei
Of course I would examine Chu-tan.
[12:29] Shima
Yeah, but she destroyed Mo-tan!
[12:31] Shima
Ya know how bad that is, right?!
[12:34] Shima
Bring 'er here right now!
[12:35] Shima
I'll beat some sense into her!
[12:37] Shar
If you want to beat Chu-tan,
then save her first.
[12:40] Shima
Huh?
[12:41] Mei
Right now, Mo-tan's power is keeping
[12:44] Mei
Chu-tan's rampaging Sol/Lull in check.
[12:46] Uri
We heard that from Mo-tan.
[12:48] Mei
But it's approaching its limit.
[12:51] Mei
It's only a matter of time before
its efficacy wears off.
[12:55] Mei
That's why...
[12:56] Mei
I want us all to give Chu-tan our Sol/Lull!
[13:01] [SONG] Mei
Rat
[13:02] Mei
I think Chu-tan's Etotama
is currently turning all
[13:05] Mei
the Sol/Lull it receives
into negative energy.
[13:09] Mei
So, if we fill Chu-tan's Etotama
with all of our Sol/Lull
[13:13] Mei
before it has a chance to turn
it into negative energy...
[13:18] Mei
It might stop her rampage,
like flipping a switch.
[13:22] Dora
So the only way is to suppress it by force?
[13:25] Mei
This is the best idea I can
come up with to handle it.
[13:29] Shar
Please, help Chu-tan.
[13:33] Shar
She's fighting her own battle.
[13:37] Shima
No need to ask us that. Of course we'll go.
[13:41] Dora
Mo-tan gave it her all, too.
[13:43] Dora
Chu-tan is suffering.
[13:45] Dora
We must do whatever we can.
[13:48] Shima
Yeah, fine.
[13:50] Shima
I'll have to hold off on beating
Chu-tan until this is all over.
[13:53] Inu
Hey, Takeru, come with us!
[13:55] Key
Yeah! You've got great Sol/Lull!
[13:58] Takeru
I'll stay here,
[14:00] Takeru
next to Nya-tan.
[14:04] Takeru
Nya-tan is the one I want
to support right now.
[14:07] Takeru
All of you should support Chu-tan.
[14:10] Takeru
Like Dora-tan said,
let's all do what we can.
[14:14] Mei
Takeru-san.
[14:16] Takeru
I think the thing I can do is right here.
[14:19] Shima
All right! Let's go!
[14:21] Key
We'll catch Usa-tan and the
other two on the way!
[14:24] Inu
Yeah!
[14:25] Takeru
Is something wrong?
[14:27] Uri
When Nya-tan wakes up,
SIGN Sesame Oil
[14:29] Uri
give her this.
[14:30] Takeru
Uh, right.
[14:31] Uri
It's best to drink at 43 degrees Celsius.
[14:34] Uri
If she wants a different flavor,
add some yuzu and pepper paste.
[14:35] Takeru
Okay, I get it. Just go.
[14:38] Uri
Keep a close eye on her, okay?
[14:40] Takeru
Yeah, sure.
[14:45] Takeru
Hey...
[14:46] Takeru
If your memories come back,
[14:48] Takeru
I wonder what'll happen to
your memories of me.
[14:53] Takeru
I'm sure I'd be sad if you woke up as
[14:56] Takeru
a Nya-tan I don't know.
[14:58] Takeru
But my own sadness
[15:02] Takeru
wouldn't bother me nearly as
much as if you never woke up.
[15:05] Takeru
So come on and wake up, Nya-tan.
[15:16] Shar
People's prayers,
[15:18] Shar
hopes, dreams...
[15:20] Shar
They always look so beautiful.
[15:23] Chu
But there will always be just as much sorrow,
[15:27] Chu
hatred, and loneliness.
[15:31] Shar
Chu-ta—
[15:32] Inu
Chu-tan!
[15:33] Inu
I need your help with something!
[15:36] Piyo
Wait! Save your silly whining
for after I give my report!
[15:40] Uma
I-I'm sorry!
[15:42] Uma
I've had some trouble come up, too!
[15:46] Shar
If you like, I can help—
[15:48] Chu
No, it's okay.
[15:49] Chu
I'll hear them out.
[15:51] Chu
What's wrong?
[15:52] Inu
Well, there's trouble in the
region I'm protecting!
[15:56] Piyo
It's probably nothing big.
[15:58] Inu
It is, too!
[15:59] Piyo
Oh, shut up!
[15:59] Uma
U-Um, please listen to what
I have to say, too...
[16:01] Inu
How dare you tell me to shut up?!
[16:05] Nya
I'm back!
[16:07] Chu
Nya-tan.
[16:12] Nya
What's going on? You look all gloomy.
[16:15] Chu
Not at all.
[16:17] Chu
I can't afford to be gloomy until
this world is in perfect balance.
[16:21] Nya
True.
[16:23] Chu
Is there still strife in the outside world?
[16:26] Nya
Here and there.
[16:26] Chu
I see.

Hey, Chu-tan!
[16:30] Chu
Oh, sorry.

reliable leader like you, Chu-tan.
[16:37] Chu

[16:40] Chu
You won't find many as dependable as me.
[16:42] Nya
Very impressive!
[16:45] Chu
Listen, maybe now and then—
[16:47] Nya
Hey, Inu and Piyo! How've you two been?
[16:50] Piyo
Shut up, stupid cat!
[16:51] Inu
We don't have anything to say to you!
[16:53] Nya
Aww, don't say that! I brought a souvenir!
[16:56] Nya
It's top-quality, all-natural conger eel!
[16:58] Nya
Try it with some refreshing plums,
and you can keep eating it forever!
[17:02] Piyo
Liar! There's no way this is a conger eel!
[17:04] Nya
Now, now, don't sweat the little details!

Already?

Okay, is everyone ready?

Let's begin.

This is fine. Keep it going.

That's it...

I... can't move...

Chu-tan's negative energy seems
[19:10] Mei
to be swallowing our Sol/Lull!

Good for you, Nya-tan.

That night, you told me

that there was no telling
how I'd be punished.

[02:29] Uri
Are Nya-tan's memories...?
[02:31] Takeru
She said she remembered everything.
[02:34] Takeru
Nya-tan...
[02:49] Nya
Chu-tan!
[03:25] Chu
You call this getting serious?!
[03:34] Nya
Here we go!
[03:51] Chu
This time,
[03:53] Chu
I will destroy your Etotama completely!
[03:58] Chu
What?
[04:02] Takeru
That's...
[04:03] Shar
The same Kagura Senguu that Chu-tan used.
[04:06] Dora
Why is Nya-tan...?
[04:15] Chu
I never dreamed
[04:17] Chu
that you would learn this technique, too.
[04:19] Nya
I didn't!
[04:22] Nya
The first one to ever use
Etotama Kagura Senguu...
[04:25] Nya
Was me!
SIGN Rat
[04:28] Chu
What are...
[04:30] Chu
...you saying?
[04:32] Nya
Chu-tan.
[04:34] Nya
You're more direct and
up-front than anyone.
[04:37] Nya
You won't even throw away
the negative emotions
[04:40] Nya
that keep piling up in you.
You accept them fully.
[04:44] Nya
So by the time I realized it...
[04:48] Nya
The Sol/Lull in you had
already started rampaging.
[04:53] Nya
I had no other choice!
[04:58] Dora
There were already signs
of her rampage even then?
[05:01] Mei
For the sake of humanity,
and for this land,
[05:05] Mei
and...
[05:07] Mei
To serve as an example for us,
[05:09] Mei
Chu-tan always remained a
strong, unyielding leader.
[05:13] Shar
She was genuine to a fault.
[05:18] Shar
That's why she was unable to escape
the evil stirring within her,
[05:20] Shar
and the contortion of her reason.
[05:22] Shar
She was trapped, no longer able to move.
[05:26] Usa
I-If she was so troubled,
she could have told us.
[05:30] Key
Yeah! If she'd talked to us—
[05:32] Shima
She couldn't do that!
[05:34] Shima
No. We just wouldn't let her.
[05:41] Inu
I dumped all kinds of trouble on her.
[05:44] Inu
I just made her listen to my whining...
[05:46] Inu
I never actually listened to her.
[05:48] Uma
I feel terrible.
[05:51] Uri
Only Nya-tan realized it.
[05:54] Piyo
I thought she was the most
selfish one of us all,
[05:56] Piyo
thinking of no one but herself...
[05:58] Nya
That's why...
[06:00] Nya
That's why I went through so much training
[06:03] Nya
and mastered Kagura Senguu!
[06:06] Nya
For you, Chu-tan!
[06:07] Chu
What nonsense are you spouting?!
[06:22] Shima
Then the reason Nya-tan wanted
to train under us...
[06:26] Uri
She wanted to master the
[06:28] Uri
secret technique, Etotama Kagura Senguu.
[06:30] Dora
Truly?
[06:32] Dora
But why?
[06:33] Chu
You mastered Kagura Senguu for me?
SIGN Rat
[06:37] Chu
What? What is she talking about?
[06:52] Nya
Secret technique: Etotama Kagura Senguu!
[07:01] Chu
Wh-What is this technique?
[07:04] Nya
That's enough, Chu-tan.
[07:07] Nya
That's enough.
[07:09] Nya
You can rest now.
[07:14] Chu
Rest, you say?
[07:18] Chu
I'm in your way?
[07:21] Chu
You don't need me?
[07:23] Nya
This is the only way I can save you!
[07:26] Chu
Who asked you to save me?
[07:28] Chu
You promised me
[07:31] Chu
that you'd protect this land!
[07:34] Chu
Yet you...
[07:35] Nya
Don't, Chu-tan!
[07:37] Nya
If you do this, you'll—
[07:38] Chu
Quiet, cat clan Eto-musume!
[07:40] Chu
You are now...
[07:42] Chu
My enemy!
[07:49] Nya
No—
[07:51] Nya
That's...
[07:57] Nya
J-Just by seeing it... you
learned Kagura Senguu?
[08:01] Nya
Ch-Chu-tan...
[08:22] Dora
Nya-tan was also capable
of using Kagura Senguu?

Everyone! What happened?
[08:35] Manager
Human boy...
[08:37] Manager
I ask of you:
[08:40] Manager
Do you need these zodiac spirits?
[08:43] Manager
Well, human boy?
[08:45] Takeru
Manager?
[08:53] Nya
I finally remembered...
[08:55] Nya
Everything!
[09:00] Chu
That doesn't change anything.
[09:03] Chu
I will destroy you, and that is all!
[09:06] Chu
Kokushi...

SIGN Kokushi Tenchuusatsu

Neko Masshiguran!
SIGN Neko Masshiguran
[09:35] Chu
I see.
[09:37] Chu
So you've regained your power
along with your memories?
[09:43] Nya
Not my power!
[09:45] Nya
What... What came back to me is...
[09:49] Nya
My love for you, Chu-tan!
[10:18] Nya
Secret technique:
[10:19] Nya
Etotama Kagura Senguu!
SIGN A divine act that transforms the Etotama,
an Eto-musume's soul, into the vessel for a new soul.
It requires special Sol/Lull and cleanses the Etotama of impurities
without the loss of the target's memories or abilities.
SIGN All divine
precepts are established by the Conference of Gods,
held by the ETM12 Executive Committee of members chosen
by the many gods, and must be obeyed by all Eto-musume.
[10:43] Manager
Answer me, human boy.
[10:47] Manager
Do humans need the zodiac spirits?
[10:50] Takeru
If I say we don't, what then?
[10:54] Manager
I will invoke Article 0
of the Zodiac Precepts.
[10:58] Takeru
What is Article 0 of the Zodiac Precepts?
[11:01] Manager
The current Eto-shin will disappear,
[11:04] Manager
and all will be recomposed from scratch.
[11:06] Takeru
They'll disappear?
[11:07] Manager
As they are now,
[11:09] Manager
the zodiac spirits cannot protect
either the people or the land.
[11:12] Manager
They are essentially too imperfect to
[11:15] Manager
exist as messengers of the gods.
[11:18] Takeru
You're asking whether humans need
[11:21] Takeru
the zodiac spirits or not?
[11:29] Chu
Let go! Let go!
[11:32] Nya
I thought destroying it
[11:34] Nya
would be for your own good.
[11:37] Nya
I thought it was the only way to save you!
[11:40] Chu
Let go!
[11:44] Nya
But I was wrong!
[11:48] Nya
I just didn't know.
[11:53] Nya
There were so many other things
[11:56] Nya
I could do for the people I cared about.
[12:05] Nya
I'm sorry, Chu-tan.
[12:13] Chu
Let go!
[12:14] Chu
Don't touch me!
[12:16] Chu
Don't come near me!
[12:18] Chu
You are an enemy I must destroy!
[12:20] Nya
I won't let go!
[12:21] Nya
I'm not letting go this time!
[12:24] Nya
No matter what you become,
[12:26] Nya
or what happens to me!
[12:29] Nya
I'll save you as many times as I have to!
[12:34] Nya
As many times as I have to!
SIGN Rat
[13:03] Nya
Chu-tan?
[13:10] Chu
I hate you.
[13:12] Chu
I really hate you, Nya-tan!
[13:22] Chu
Why?
[13:23] Chu
Why did you betray me?!
[13:26] Nya
I told you, I'm sorry!
[13:28] Chu
I... I wanted...
[13:30] Chu
to be
[13:32] Chu
with you!
[13:38] Chu
I thought you'd be by my
side, supporting me.
[13:41] Chu
That's why I was able to tout
my ideals and beliefs...
[13:44] Chu
Yet you just went wandering off,
[13:46] Chu
this way and that!
[13:50] Nya
The agreement was that I'd
support you from the shadows!
[13:54] Nya
That's why I visited different worlds,
nipping their problems in the bud!
[13:58] Nya
I thought that would make
things better overall!
[14:00] Chu
Yeah, things were definitely balanced!
[14:02] Nya
Then it's fine!
[14:03] Chu
It's not fine!
[14:04] Nya
Why not?!
[14:07] Chu
The nation was balanced,
[14:10] Chu
but I was lonely!
[14:13] Chu
Because you weren't there!
[14:18] Nya
Wha...
[14:21] Nya
What're you acting all loving for?
[14:23] Nya
You can't say that now!
[14:25] Nya
It's throwing your character off!
[14:27] Chu
I-I know that!
[14:28] Chu
I know I'm way off...
[14:32] Chu
But... But...
[14:34] Chu
I couldn't say it for two thousand years!
[14:37] Chu
So why can't I say it now?!
[14:41] Uri
Both of their most precious secrets
[14:43] Uri
just came tumbling out.
[14:46] Chu
I don't like who I am now, either!
[14:48] Chu
I'm pathetic, screaming
and throwing tantrums...
[14:51] Chu
I don't know what to do anymore!
[14:54] Takeru
Um...
[14:55] Manager
Do you have your answer, human boy?
[14:58] Takeru
I'm sorry, but could you move over?
[15:00] Manager
Huh?
[15:01] Takeru
You're blocking the TV.
[15:02] Manager
Oh, right...
[15:08] Takeru
I don't think you need to do anything.
[15:10] Manager
What?!
[15:11] Takeru
You can be as out of character
as you want, Chu-tan.
[15:15] Takeru
That's what gives rise to
all kinds of feelings.
[15:17] Manager
U-Um...
[15:18] Takeru
You got too serious and
went out of control,
[15:21] Takeru
and you were finally able
to say how you truly felt,
[15:22] Manager
Hello?
[15:24] Takeru
all because you went out of character.
[15:26] Manager
What the...
[15:28] Usa
He's totally ignoring the manager.
[15:30] Uma
Th-That's amazing...
[15:33] Piyo
Not bad.
[15:35] Takeru
Being with Nya-tan made me understand.
[15:38] Takeru
Because she screams, throws tantrums,
[15:41] Takeru
and acts out of character,
every day is more fun!
[15:46] Takeru
I decided to support Nya-tan
because that's who she is.
[15:49] Takeru
And...
[15:51] Takeru
I'll support you too, Chu-tan,
[15:53] Takeru
because Nya-tan does!
[16:07] Takeru
Both of you, go for it!
SIGN Rat
[16:41] Chu
My chest... feels lighter...
[16:45] Nya
Takeru's Sol/Lull is really kind!
[16:51] Chu
I...
[16:54] Chu
I...
[16:57] Chu
I am Chu-tan of the rat clan,
[17:00] Chu
strongest of the Eto-shin!
[17:06] Nya
Okay, then once again...
[17:08] Nya
I'll defeat you and
[17:11] Nya
join the zodiac!
[17:14] Chu
Bring it on, Nya-tan!
[17:21] Chu
Shin...
[17:22] Nya
Super...

[17:32] [SONG] Text
Over
[17:37] Takeru
Manager.
[17:38] Manager
Huh? Oh... Yes!
[17:40] Manager
What is it, human boy?
[17:43] Takeru
Rat, Ox,
[17:44] Takeru
Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon,
[17:47] Takeru
Snake, Horse, Sheep,
[17:49] Takeru
Monkey, Rooster, Dog,
[17:52] Takeru
and Boar.
[17:54] Takeru
You said they were all imperfect.
[17:58] Takeru
They're great because
[18:00] Takeru
they're imperfect, screaming, crying,
out-of-character zodiac spirits.
[18:03] Takeru
I do need the zodiac spirits.
[18:08] Manager
Human boy, I accept
[18:11] Manager
your words as complete truth.
[18:14] Manager
And thus...
[18:18] Manager
Article 0 of the Zodiac Precepts
will not be invoked!
[18:22] Takeru
Thank you!
[18:24] Manager
Whew, thank goodness!
[18:26] Manager
If the current zodiac spirits disappeared,
[18:27] Manager
I'd have to conduct job
interviews all over again!
[18:30] Takeru
Huh?
[18:31] Manager
Everyone! Tomorrow is a fun, fun payday!
[18:34] Manager
Make sure you come to work!
[18:36] Manager
Now... Adios!
[18:41] Voice
The battle is over.
[18:44] Nya
Hi again! I'm back!
[18:47] Dora
Welcome back, Nya-tan.
[18:48] Nya
Yay!
[18:49] Chu
Hey, that was just a fluke, you know.
[18:51] Nya
What?! It was not!
[18:52] Chu
Yeah, it was.
[18:53] Nya
Was not!
[19:00] Mei
Your Sol/Lull is calm now.
[19:02] Mei
But rest for a while just in case, okay?
[19:05] Chu
Th-Thanks.
[19:08] Shar
We were worried about you.
[19:08] Dora
So Nya-tan's Kagura Senguu
[19:09] Chu
Sorry...
[19:11] Dora
didn't destroy Chu-tan's Etotama.
[19:13] Dora
It's a technique to repair and purify it.
[19:17] Shima
A secret technique that can be
either poison or medicine...
[19:19] Shima
Talk about an amazing ability.
[19:22] Nya
Wait! Wait, wait!
[19:24] Chu
What's wrong, Nya-tan?
[19:26] Nya
Don't give me that!
[19:27] Nya
Hand it over!
[19:29] Chu
Hand what over?
SIGN Seal
[19:32] Nya
Your Sol/Lull Seal!
[19:34] Nya
Give me your Sol/Lull Seal!
[19:35] Nya
I won our Sol/Lull battle!
[19:38] Chu
Oh, right.
[19:39] Uri
That victory was a bit up in the air.
[19:41] Key
Right on the edge.
[19:42] Inu
Like, if I had to say, I guess you won?
[19:45] Nya
A win is a win!
[19:46] Nya
Just hand it over already!
[19:49] Nya
I'm gonna join the zodiac
and release Chu-tan from
[19:51] Nya
the pressure of being one of them!
[19:54] Nya
That's my ultimate goal!
[19:58] Chu
You can't have my Seal.
[19:59] Nya
Why the heck not?!
[20:01] Chu
I did something I can't undo.
SIGN Ox
[20:08] Chu
But still...
[20:10] Chu
No, that's why...
[20:12] Chu
I want to fulfill my duty as a
[20:15] Chu
zodiac spirit and protect this land!
[20:17] Mei
That's wonderful!
[20:19] Shar
We'll help you.
[20:20] Nya
Wait a minute!
[20:22] Piyo
Why don't we change the ETM12
rules while we're at it?
[20:25] Chu
You're right.
[20:27] Chu
Shall we submit an amendment
to the Zodiac Precepts?
[20:31] Chu
On that note,
[20:32] Chu
would you continue to help me, everyone?
[20:36] Nya
Wh-What is this mood?!
[20:38] Nya
Does this mean I can't join the zodiac?!
[20:41] Nya
My one cour worth of effort...
[20:44] Chu
Don't push yourself.
[20:45] Chu
You can live as you please,
unbound by anything.
[20:49] Nya
I wasn't pushing myself...
[20:50] Chu
I'll do things my way,
[20:52] Chu
and you do things your way.
[20:54] Chu
And we'll protect this land together.
[20:57] Chu
Promise.
[21:01] Nya
No!
[21:02] Nya
This means I'm past my prime!
[21:05] Nya
I have no place here now!
[21:06] Nya
Demand my help more!
[21:07] Mo
I want you!
[21:10] Mo
My sweet Nya-tan!
[21:11] Nya
Huh?! Mo-tan?!
[21:13] Mo
Yes, it's me!
[21:16] Nya
How? How?!
[21:17] Mo
Before I knew it...
[21:19] Mo
I lived inside Chu-tan!
[21:21] Chu
You've been inside me all this time?
[21:23] Mo
In that moment...
[21:25] Mo
My Etotama touched Chu-tan,
[21:27] Mo
and we were connected a tiny bit.
[21:30] Mo
But, of course, that wasn't
enough to change anything...
[21:34] Mo
But Chu-tan and Nya-tan, your love
[21:37] Mo
aided my reincarnation!
[21:41] Takeru
That's great.
[21:44] Chu
I see...
[21:45] Chu
You've all been beside me this whole time.
[21:50] Chu
I'm sorry I didn't notice.
[21:54] Chu
Thank you.
[21:57] Nya
What just happened here?
[21:59] Nya
Is this the end? Seriously?!
[22:02] Dora
Nya-tan, now there's
nothing tying you down.
[22:05] Dora
You're free.
[22:07] Shima
Ya can wander off on journeys again now.
[22:09] Uri
Yep, yep.
[22:11] Takeru
Well, anyway, that's great, huh?
[22:13] Nya
I—
[22:14] Nya
It is not!
[23:40] Mo
Nya-tan, let's go!
[23:42] Nya
All right!
[23:45] Nya
Have a battle with me!
