SIGN    Rat
[00:02] Chu
    You can't!
[00:03] Chu
    This ritual is a gathering called
    by the gods themselves.
[00:06] Chu
    If you do that, there's no telling
    how you'll be punished!
[00:10] Nya
    Well, it'll all work out.
[00:13] Chu
    This is all right with you?
[00:19] Chu
    I see...
[00:21] Nya
    Good luck with the footrace
    tomorrow, Chu-tan.
[00:24] Chu
    Yeah. Thanks...
[00:28] Chu
    Nya-tan.
[00:41] Uma
    J-Just what I'd expect of the first
[00:44] Uma
    Eto-shin Selection Festival...
[00:46] Usa
    Yes. With 108 Eto-musume here,
[00:49] Usa
    it's certainly quite the crowd.
[00:51] Shima
    Well, the twelve guardians
    who'll protect this country
[00:53] Shima
    are gonna be chosen from all these girls.
[00:56] Dora
    It's the birth of the first
    generation of Eto-shin.
[00:59] Piyo
    But why is it a footrace?
[01:01] Mo
    Very exciting!
[01:03] Mo
    I'm super confident in how fast I can run!
[01:06] Mei
    Hmm?
[01:07] Dora
    What is it?
[01:09] Mei
    I don't see Nya-tan,
    the cat clan's Eto-musume.
[01:12] Key
    You're right. She's not here.
[01:15] Inu
    She seems like she'd be all
    excited to race, too...
[01:18] Uri
    Judging by her skill,
    Nya-tan is sure to place high.
[01:21] Uri
    She's a top candidate to become
    an Eto-shin, along with Chu-tan.
[01:24] ---
    Yeah.
[01:27] Shar
    You know something, don't you?
[01:30] Chu
    I tricked her.
[01:32] Shar
    What?
[01:33] Chu
    Nya-tan won't be coming.
[01:36] Shar
    Why would you tell such a lie?
[01:39] Chu
    The first Eto-shin Selection
    Festival is about to start.

SIGN    Episode 11: Cat/Rat Shuffle
[03:33] Usa
    Did you see that battle?!
[03:35] Uma
    S-Something very bad happened!
[03:38] Piyo
    What on Earth is going on?
[03:41] Nya
    Um, um... It was...
[03:45] Nya
    Mo-tan? Where are you, Mo-tan?
[03:48] Dora
    I'll try tracking Mo-tan's Sol/Lull.
[03:56] Shima
    Well?
[03:57] Dora
    It's no use. I can't sense her Sol/Lull.
[04:01] Shim
    You don't mean... She was really...
[04:04] Inu
    ...destroyed?
[04:05] Key
    No way...
[04:06] Takeru
    Hey...
[04:08] Takeru
    Mo-tan will reincarnate, right?
[04:10] Nya
    Huh?
[04:11] Nya
    Of course she will! Right?
[04:13] Nya
    Just like Uri-tan! She'll be back tomorrow!
[04:15] Nya
    Glance.
[04:16] Nya
    Then the day after!
[04:17] Nya
    Meow?
[04:19] Nya
    Okay, okay, the day after that?
[04:21] Nya
    Nah, maybe she'll make us wait a week?
[04:22] Nya
    Or maybe she'll wait a month!
[04:25] Nya
    Meow?
[04:27] Shima
    No. She won't.
[04:30] Uri
    Chu-tan destroyed Mo-tan's Etotama.
[04:34] Nya
    Her Etotama?
[04:36] Uri
    Etotama is our source.
SIGN    Ox
[04:38] Shima
    One whose Etotama is destroyed...
[04:42] Shima
    Most likely can't reincarnate.
[04:44] Takeru
    Then...
[04:46] Nya
    I'll never see Mo-tan again?
[05:00] Mo
    Moo!
[05:02] Nya
    Mo-tan!
[05:04] Mo
    Yes, my sweet honey.
[05:08] Nya
    I saw you again right away!
[05:11] Nya
    Who was the meanie who said
    she couldn't reincarnate?
[05:15] Mo
    I'm sorry, Nya-tan.
[05:17] Nya
    Meow?
[05:19] Shima
    Th-This is...
[05:24] Mo
    I made a mistake.
[05:26] Nya
    Huh?
[05:27] Mo
    I got destroyed.
[05:30] Nya
    What? But you're here!
    You're right in front of me!
[05:33] Nya
    Even if you're see-through...
[05:35] Dora
    Residual Sol/Lull thoughts?
[05:40] Mo
    Nya-tan, you saw my battle
    with Chu-tan, didn't you?
[05:44] Nya
    Yeah, I saw it.
[05:46] Mo
    Good.
[05:47] Mo
    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
[06:13] Mo
    can keep Chu-tan at bay,
[06:15] Mo
    but from here...
[06:17] Nya
    Meow?
[06:17] Mo
    As long as you have your love
    for Chu-tan, it'll be okay!
[06:21] Nya
    Why should I?! I don't need
    any love for that jerk!
[06:26] Mo
    Not everybody can tell,
[06:28] Mo
    but what's in here is a very
    deep, powerful emotion.
[06:32] Mo
    I know love will open the
    path for you, Nya-tan.
SIGN    Cat
[06:42] Mo
    Now...
[06:44] Mo
    Goodbye, Nya-tan.
[06:48] Shima
    Goodbye, Mo-tan...
[06:55] Inu
    She just fell asleep!
[06:57] Key
    What's going on?!
[06:58] Usa
    I don't understand.
[06:59] Piyo
    Don't just fall asleep, idiot!
[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.
[16:28] Inu
    Hey, Chu-tan!
[16:30] Chu
    Oh, sorry.
[16:32] Nya
    Yeah, we can all really rest easy with a
[16:34] Nya
    reliable leader like you, Chu-tan.
[16:37] Chu
    I'm sure.
[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!
SIGN    squirm wriggle
[17:07] ---
    I knew it!
[17:09] Inu
    Is this what conger eels look like?!
[17:11] Uma
    That's the tail of the Chimera!
[17:13] Nya
    Chimera?
[17:15] Piyo
    You stupid cat! This time I'll really...
[17:17] Piyo
    Get this thing off me!
[17:20] Nya
    Tee-hee!
[17:22] Uma
    Terrifying...
[17:23] Inu
    Chu-tan, do something.
[17:26] Chu
    For goodness' sake...
[17:33] Uma
    Amazing!
[17:34] Inu
    That's our Chu-tan!
[17:38] Chu
    Nya-tan, please don't scare
    everyone like that.
[17:45] Nya
    Well, time to go.
[17:46] Chu
    Already?
[17:47] Nya
    Keep it up!
[17:50] Chu
    Nya-tan...
[17:55] Mei
    Okay, is everyone ready?
[17:58] Mei
    Let's begin.
[18:05] Mei
    Made on Sol/Lull!
[18:22] Shima
    How's this, Mei-tan?
[18:24] Mei
    This is fine. Keep it going.
[18:35] Mei
    That's it...
[18:37] Mei
    Chu-tan...
[18:39] Chu
    I'm in your way?
[18:42] Chu
    You don't need me?
[18:44] Chu
    You are now my...
[18:49] Chu
    enemy!
[18:59] Dora
    What's happening?

    Wow! Takeru's Sol/Lull
    is all over the place!
[20:06] Nya
    Saury! Urchin! Gotcha!
[20:07] Takeru
    You're the same old Nya-tan.
[20:09] Nya
    Meow?
[20:10] Takeru
    Nothing. How do you feel?
[20:14] Nya
    I'm not sure what happened...
[20:16] Nya
    But I remember everything!
[20:19] Nya
    I remember why I absolutely have
    to become part of the zodiac!
[20:24] Takeru
    Nya-tan...
[20:26] Nya
    Now then.
[20:32] Nya
    Come with me, Takeru.
[20:34] Nya
    Everyone's waiting.

    I see.

    It seems there's no longer
    any reason to stop you.
[21:20] Nya
    Your Sol/Lull Seal!
[21:21] Takeru
    Good for you, Nya-tan.
[21:23] Nya
    Thanks, Master!

    you need is Chu-tan's.

    Yep, yep.
[21:31] Chu
    Your memories returned,
[21:34] Chu
    cat?
[21:40] Nya
    Chu-tan...
[21:43] Nya
    That night, you told me
[21:46] Nya
    that there was no telling
    how I'd be punished.
[21:49] Nya
    Maybe we're being
[21:50] Nya
    punished by the gods right now.
[21:54] Nya
    But I'll do something about it!
