[00:04] ---
    I almost forgot.
    For those of you who haven't yet,
[00:06] ---
    make sure to turn in your
    career plan forms this week.
[00:09] ---
    Okay.
[00:11] ---
    Parent-teacher conferences
    are right after summer break.
[00:14] ---
    Don't forget to let your parent
    or guardian know what's up.
[00:18] ---
    I'll see if Grandfather can attend.
[00:20] ---
    Kyon-Kyon!
[00:22] ---
    Know what you'll do after
    graduation yet? A cat shop?
[00:25] ---
    Shut it. None of your business!
[00:28] ---
    Lunch time! I'm so damn hungry!
[00:32] ---
    U-Uotani-sama, why'd you kick Kyon-Kyon's desk?
[00:36] ---
    I'm freakin' hangry! I woke up late
    and didn't eat breakfast!
[00:40] ---
    Oi, you should be grateful you were
    born a woman, Gangster Girl.
[00:45] ---
    You'd be dead in a heartbeat
    if you were a guy, bitch!
[00:48] ---
    I did that 'cause I know
    you won't hurt girls, dumbass!
[00:52] ---
    Um... Let's... eat lunch...
[00:57] ---
    It's been so long since
    we've all eaten together.
[01:00] ---
    It has.
[01:01] ---
    Eating with this group makes my lunch worse.
[01:04] ---
    Tohru-kun, did you already
    submit your career plan form?
[01:07] ---
    Yes!
[01:08] ---
    I don't know what to do. I haven't yet.
[01:11] ---
    Me neither. It's too early to decide.
[01:15] ---
    Oh yeah, Tohru, still the same plan?
[01:18] ---
    I want to start working so I can support myself.
[01:22] ---
    Yes, working sounds good.
[01:25] ---
    You know, Tohru,
    there's the option of getting married.
[01:29] ---
    --Huh?
    --Oh, dear.
[01:31] ---
    Perhaps I should go to college
    to get a better job, then.
[01:36] ---
    She's not marrying you.
[01:38] ---
    Anyway, I meant like marrying
    one of these two, for instance.
[01:43] ---
    --Wha--?
    --Wha--?
[01:44] ---
    What're you actin' all surprised for, huh?
[01:46] ---
    It better not be 'cause you've got
    somethin' against Tohru, dammit!
[01:49] ---
    Th-That's not it at all...
[01:51] ---
    Oh? Let's see which of us wins, then.
[01:53] ---
    We didn't even say anything!
    Stop picking a fight!
[01:56] ---
    U-Um, i-if I'm to be married,
[02:01] ---
    I'm sure it's still far in the future.
[02:04] ---
    Yeah, maybe I'll surprise
    you all and get married first.
[02:08] ---
    Nobody'll want you.
[02:12] ---
    Marriage aside, I did meet a guy at work
    that I'm maybe kind of into.
[02:17] ---
    Wh-What?!
[02:19] ---
    You never told us.
[02:20] ---
    Wh-What's he like?
[02:22] ---
    Hmm... He's kinda like Tohru.
[02:25] ---
    Huh? He's like me?
[02:29] ---
    I'd love to meet him.
[02:32] ---
    --I can guarantee he's not like
    what you're imagining, Hanajima.
    --Career plans... What I should do next...?
[02:38] ---
    My... future... from now on...
[02:48] ---
    "Fruits Basket"
[04:16] ---
    Tohru, over here!
[04:18] ---
    Don't fall behind spacing out.
[04:19] ---
    Okay!
[04:21] ---
    Shisho-san kindly invited me over.
    It would be awful if I got lost on the way.
[04:27] ---
    Don't expect too much.
    We're just talking over lunch.
[04:32] ---
    It might just get boring.
[04:34] ---
    I'm sure it won't be!
    I'm thrilled that I get to eat with you two!
[04:41] ---
    You're easy to please.
[04:45] ---
    Look where you're going. You'll trip.
[04:49] ---
    Shisho!
[04:50] ---
    Thank you for having us!
[04:52] ---
    I brought her!
[04:55] ---
    U-Um, Kyo-kun, I smell something strange.
[05:03] ---
    "In the Moonlight"
[05:04] ---
    --Shisho!
    --Ouch!
[05:05] ---
    What're you burning this time?!
[05:07] ---
    --Huh?
    --The pot!
[05:08] ---
    The fish is burning, too!
[05:10] ---
    --Is... everything... okay?
    --I thought I'd try my hand at cooking
    again for this special occasion.
[05:16] ---
    Sorry about that. I was immersed in my book.
[05:19] ---
    It's Shigure-kun's new book.
[05:19] ---
    "In the Moonlight"
[05:21] ---
    Burn that to ashes!
[05:24] ---
    Sorry, it's been so long, and the first thing
    you see of me is that mess.
[05:28] ---
    No, no, don't worry about it!
[05:31] ---
    Though, I noticed that you cut your hair.
[05:35] ---
    Yes, I chopped it off.
[05:37] ---
    Chopped it off...
[05:38] ---
    Now, what shall we do? It's almost lunch time...
[05:44] ---
    Um... If you don't mind, I can cook.
[05:48] ---
    What? Why're you gonna cook
    when you're the guest?
[05:51] ---
    --I leave it to you.
    --Don't let her!
[05:55] ---
    Hmm...
[06:02] ---
    What is it, Kyo? You want to
    talk about something?
[06:05] ---
    Huh? Why're you asking?
[06:07] ---
    Ever since you were young,
    whenever you wanted to say something...
[06:13] ---
    Let's play. Let's play. Let's play. Let's play.
[06:14] ---
    Let's play. Let's play. Let's play. L--
[06:16] ---
    You're lying! I don't have
    any habits that cutesy!
[06:21] ---
    Well? What did you want to talk about?
[06:25] ---
    It's nothing.
[06:31] ---
    "Mustard"
[06:33] ---
    It's basically empty.
[06:35] ---
    I don't usually cook.
[06:38] ---
    I think I could put a curry together!
[06:40] ---
    Ah, curry sounds good. I'll help--
[06:44] ---
    Sheesh, stop already. I'll help.
    You can watch from the hallway.
[06:49] ---
    You'll help me? Thank you very much!
[06:54] ---
    Shisho-san!
[06:56] ---
    Kyo-kun is such a great cook.
[06:59] ---
    The rice porridge he made for me
    before was delicious.
[07:03] ---
    Kyo made it... for you?
[07:06] ---
    Yes!
[07:08] ---
    I see!
[07:09] ---
    Shisho! Just leave. Go read that book!
[07:12] ---
    If you say so.
[07:14] ---
    C'mon, let's get started already.
[07:16] ---
    R-Right!
[07:17] ---
    What happened?
[07:19] ---
    He threw me out.
[07:21] ---
    Oh?
[07:22] ---
    You gonna be able to put
    your hair back if you untie it all?
[07:26] ---
    It's easy.
[07:27] ---
    --Looks like they're having fun.
    --Wow.
[07:30] ---
    I never thought he'd be able to interact
    like that with people other than you.
[07:34] ---
    Oh, I'll get it.
[07:39] ---
    Last year at this time, he couldn't...
[07:42] ---
    He couldn't even raise his head up,
    let alone smile.
[07:47] ---
    All he had was despair.
[07:50] ---
    He smelled only of darkness
    similar to that of death.
[07:55] ---
    Kazuma-san.
[07:57] ---
    Kazuma-san!
[07:59] ---
    Who was it?
[08:02] ---
    It was... Kyo's father.
[08:08] ---
    What? You're going out?
[08:11] ---
    Sorry. I unexpectedly need
    to meet with someone.
[08:15] ---
    I'll return as quickly as possible.
[08:18] ---
    Shisho, did something happen?
[08:22] ---
    Don't worry, I'll be back soon.
[08:25] ---
    Wait here and be a good kid.
[08:27] ---
    What the heck?
[08:29] ---
    Remember you often would be
    close to tears when I'd leave?
[08:32] ---
    That was when I was a kid!
    Don't drag up the past!
[08:35] ---
    They're having a friendly argument.
[08:38] ---
    A doting parent for a doting child.
[08:40] ---
    T-To whom am I speaking?
[08:43] ---
    Pleased to meet you. I'm Kunimitsu Tomoda.
[08:46] ---
    You could say I'm Kazuma's
    disciple and secretary.
[08:50] ---
    I know some tidbits about Kyo as a child.
[08:54] ---
    For instance, he once cried because
    he was so afraid of that stain.
[08:59] ---
    Kunimitsu!
[09:03] ---
    Don't blab about useless stuff! Get out! Shoo!
[09:05] ---
    Oh, fine. The third wheel will leave now.
[09:08] ---
    What?!
[09:09] ---
    Sheesh, what's with the two of them?!
[09:13] ---
    As a child, you cried when you were scared, too?
[09:17] ---
    'Course I did.
[09:18] ---
    It does look scary, like a face.
[09:22] ---
    --Oh no, are you still scared of it?
[09:24] ---
    --Yeah, right!
    --Oh no, are you still scared of it?
[09:26] ---
    Of course not.
[09:29] ---
    Don't be scared.
[09:32] ---
    It'll get less scary as
    your body and mind grow.
[09:39] ---
    If I grow, will I be able to overcome the fear?
[09:49] ---
    Eek!
[09:50] ---
    C'mon, stop loafing. Let's get started.
[09:53] ---
    Th-That made such a nice sound just now.
[09:56] ---
    Right? Wanna hear it again?
[09:58] ---
    N-No, don't be ridiculous!
[10:01] ---
    Can I change my future?
[10:10] ---
    Your grandfather was the one
    previously possessed by the Cat.
[10:15] ---
    You of all people should understand.
[10:20] ---
    Normally, the one possessed
    by the Cat is confined.
[10:23] ---
    That thing is getting a taste of freedom now,
[10:27] ---
    but the freedom will come to
    an end after graduation.
[10:30] ---
    Then, they'll force it to live in
    that pitch-black room
[10:34] ---
    at the main estate until death.
[10:37] ---
    Kazuma-dono, I ask for
    your cooperation when the time comes.
[10:41] ---
    I believe you are getting
    ahead of yourself, however.
[10:45] ---
    --There is still over a year before graduation--
[10:47] ---
    --I'm worried!
    --There is still over a year before graduation--
[10:49] ---
    Whenever I think that it might be allowed
    to continue living outside...
[10:55] ---
    That... That thing is a monster!
[10:58] ---
    A monster that as good as killed
    its own mother--my wife!
[11:06] ---
    Will that be forgiven?!
[11:10] ---
    It was all that thing's fault.
[11:13] ---
    All because of it, everything fell apart.
[11:18] ---
    You two are similar.
[11:21] ---
    You're similar to how Kyo was not long ago.
[11:26] ---
    Not able to handle the anxiety and fear,
    you shut your eyes and plug your ears.
[11:31] ---
    Forcibly leaving everything to others.
[11:34] ---
    However, that boy is changing.
[11:39] ---
    He was finally able to climb out of his despair
    and is ready to leave it behind.
[11:43] ---
    He's trying to grow.
[11:46] ---
    Will you not change?
[11:50] ---
    Why do you persecute your son while never
    stopping to reflect on your own conduct?
[11:55] ---
    A-Are you saying I'm at fault?
[11:58] ---
    I just wonder if it's fair
    to put all the blame on him.
[12:03] ---
    Hah, you sound almost fatherly.
[12:06] ---
    But I know that you took him in for the money.
[12:12] ---
    You gain a fair sum for raising
    any zodiac child, even the Cat!
[12:17] ---
    I rejoice in seeing him grow.
    And no matter how much you scorn me,
[12:24] ---
    I could never cooperate in his confinement.
[12:28] ---
    P-Preposterous! Akito-sama will...
[12:31] ---
    The head of the family will have
    something to say about that!
[12:34] ---
    No matter who I'm against,
    I will protect him with my life.
[12:39] ---
    You are no parent of his,
    so you will never understand.
[12:50] ---
    Unforgiveable...
[12:54] ---
    I told you. I don't like the ocean or pools.
[12:58] ---
    Can you even swim?
[13:00] ---
    I can handle it! I just need to learn
    how to breathe while swimming!
[13:04] ---
    What? How can you swim if you can't do that?
[13:07] ---
    I just go whoosh and swim really fast!
[13:09] ---
    Idiot. You'll just get swept
    away by the ocean waves.
[13:14] ---
    Shisho! You took so long.
[13:16] ---
    Welcome back!
[13:18] ---
    Thanks.
[13:19] ---
    Was it a big hassle?
[13:21] ---
    Yep, it was. They complained
    my ears off. That about sums it up.
[13:30] ---
    What?
[13:32] ---
    If you continue to change,
    I'll continue to protect you.
[13:41] ---
    That aside, is the curry ready?
[13:43] ---
    --It's been ready.
    --Shall we eat lunch, then?
[13:50] ---
    You know what? We had to turn in
    a career plan form and stuff, too.
[13:54] ---
    But know what? I've already decided,
    so it was easy-peasy!
[13:59] ---
    You have? That's wonderful!
[14:02] ---
    Right? Isn't it?
[14:05] ---
    I might not be able to do it, but still...
[14:09] ---
    ...it'd be great if I could do it,
    so I'll believe I can!
[14:13] ---
    Oh, and I'll show it to you one day!
[14:18] ---
    --Oh, it's Yuki! Hello!
    --Um, Momiji-kun, is that...
[14:20] ---
    Yuki, thanks for picking her up again!
[14:26] ---
    Momiji-kun's decided what he
    wants to do in the future.
[14:31] ---
    Did he say that it might not be possible?
[14:34] ---
    Huh? Oh, yes...
[14:38] ---
    There are many things that
    we continue to fight for.
[14:44] ---
    Yuki-kun?
[14:47] ---
    Yes?
[14:50] ---
    Oh... it's nothing.
[14:56] ---
    Good night.
[14:58] ---
    Yes. Good night.
[15:05] ---
    Kyo-kun, what are you doing?
[15:08] ---
    I got hungry, so thought I'd eat some somen.
[15:11] ---
    Shall I make it? I need to prepare
    for tomorrow's breakfast anyway.
[15:16] ---
    Okay, you make some dipping sauce. We're out.
[15:19] ---
    Oh, what were you going to eat it with, then?
[15:23] ---
    Soy sauce or something.
[15:26] ---
    Would that taste good?
[15:28] ---
    No way.
[15:31] ---
    Is Shigure-san sleeping?
[15:34] ---
    Dunno, I don't get his schedule.
[15:39] ---
    I had a lot of fun at Shisho-san's house!
[15:41] ---
    --Did you?
    --Yes!
[15:44] ---
    Speaking of which, I thought it was
    a shame that he cut his hair.
[15:50] ---
    You think so? He's not a woman or anything.
[15:54] ---
    Why do you think he cut it?
[15:56] ---
    Why?
[15:59] ---
    It was rather a superstitious habit.
[16:01] ---
    And nobody will cry over its loss
    like someone would've before.
[16:05] ---
    He's just a doting parent!
[16:09] ---
    What're you smiling for?
[16:11] ---
    Nothing!
[16:12] ---
    By the way, do you plan to take over
    Shisho-san's dojo in the future?
[16:18] ---
    Might not be possible.
[16:21] ---
    I'm possessed by the Cat.
    So even if Shisho says it's okay,
[16:26] ---
    the Soma family can deny me
    if they don't consent.
[16:29] ---
    If I mess up, I'll...
[16:31] ---
    ...until death.
[16:36] ---
    Nah... don't worry about that.
    It doesn't matter.
[16:40] ---
    Anyway, as the Cat, when people ask
[16:42] ---
    what my future plans and
    career plans and stuff are...
[16:45] ---
    It's like, "Do I even get to be part of society?
[16:49] ---
    Will I actually get to live a normal life
    and be equal to normal people?"
[16:54] ---
    I'm at a loss just thinking about that stuff.
[17:00] ---
    What's with that face?
[17:03] ---
    We both know you've got
    the same kind of worries.
[17:07] ---
    Huh? I-I do?
[17:10] ---
    Graduating high school and getting
    a job to be independent
[17:14] ---
    were things you decided for your mom's sake
    when she was still around, right?
[17:19] ---
    But she's not around anymore,
[17:22] ---
    and I'm sure sometimes you worry
    about your future on your own.
[17:26] ---
    That's... not true...
[17:31] ---
    I'm sure I'll get a good job...
    and work hard...
[17:37] ---
    What, then?
[17:41] ---
    But, there are times when
    uneasiness stirs within me.
[17:46] ---
    Will I be able to find a job?
[17:49] ---
    Will I really be able to make ends meet?
[17:54] ---
    I think about how it'll be after graduation...
    in three years... in ten years...
[18:00] ---
    About how I'll need to
    eventually leave this house...
[18:04] ---
    When I start thinking about
    those things too much,
[18:08] ---
    I don't know who to turn to,
    or what to say.
[18:11] ---
    A vague anxiety swells up within me.
[18:15] ---
    And I'm swept up by
    an overwhelming uneasiness.
[18:23] ---
    I see, this is what Yuki-kun wanted to tell me.
[18:30] ---
    Don't... Don't, Kyo-kun.
[18:34] ---
    Don't what?
[18:36] ---
    When I'm deliberately ignoring things,
[18:40] ---
    I need you to pretend
    not to notice, or I'll go all weak.
[18:45] ---
    I c-can't have this sobbing!
[18:50] ---
    I'm used to your crying already.
    Just don't let your nose drip.
[18:54] ---
    Enough about me!
[18:59] ---
    What I want to say is that
    Shisho-san is waiting for you,
[19:04] ---
    and if something is wrong,
[19:06] ---
    I'm sure that you silently bottling it up
    is painful and even more wrong, so--
[19:13] ---
    Hey, you'll break it.
[19:15] ---
    Okay, okay. I've got it. I understand.
[19:19] ---
    Sheesh, why're you such a crybaby?
[19:27] ---
    Wanna know something good?
[19:29] ---
    Shigure-san, you were awake?
[19:32] ---
    I just woke up.
[19:34] ---
    Don't cry, Tohru-kun.
[19:36] ---
    Kyo-kun, what are you doing in the corner?
[19:39] ---
    It's on purpose! This guy's
    definitely doing this on purpose!
[19:42] ---
    You see, Tohru-kun,
    if you get worried when you think,
[19:46] ---
    it's best to just not think.
[19:48] ---
    Huh?
[19:49] ---
    Also, don't wipe your face with a rag next time.
[19:53] ---
    Let's see, think of it this way.
[19:55] ---
    You're surrounded by such a huge mountain
    of laundry that you can't move an inch.
[20:02] ---
    You have no washer,
    and you have to wash it all by hand.
[20:08] ---
    Would you get overwhelmed? You wonder
    if you can really finish washing them,
[20:13] ---
    if you can wash them clean, and if you're
    capable of getting satisfactory results.
[20:19] ---
    Whenever you think about it,
    you get anxious. But time continues to tick by.
[20:25] ---
    Now what should you do, Tohru-kun?
[20:29] ---
    For the time being, you should wash
    what's at your feet, don't you think?
[20:35] ---
    It's important to think about what's ahead,
[20:38] ---
    but it's also important to think of what
    you can do now, in the present.
[20:42] ---
    If you continue washing one
    by one, before you know it...
[20:51] ---
    ...the sunlight will start
    peeking through again.
[20:55] ---
    The worry will still rise up in you sometimes,
    but in those times, take a break.
[21:01] ---
    Read a book, watch TV,
[21:06] ---
    or eat somen with your friends.
[21:11] ---
    Whoa! Amazing! Was that a great talk or what?
[21:14] ---
    Aw, shucks, how considerate. You invite me
    to join your somen meal as thanks?
[21:18] ---
    Bastard, you just wanted to eat somen!
[21:26] ---
    Honda-san?
[21:28] ---
    Oh, good. I thought you might still be awake.
[21:32] ---
    Um...
[21:34] ---
    Is something the matter?
[21:36] ---
    I... I've also been feeling anxious.
[21:42] ---
    So, that's why... um...
[21:48] ---
    Let's all eat somen together!
[21:50] ---
    What?
[21:52] ---
    Oh dear! Kyo-chan,
    there's a legend that says
[21:55] ---
    you'll turn into a perv if you eat pink somen!
[21:57] ---
    --Like hell there is!
    --Eek! Perv! Pervy-perv!
[22:00] ---
    --Shut up!
    --Low-life.
[22:02] ---
    There's no legend, damn rat! I'll kill you!
[22:06] ---
    A night full of worries...
[22:10] ---
    ...is best spent together in a warm place.
[23:45] ---
    "Shall We Go and Get You Changed?"
[23:47] ---
    Shall we go and get you changed?
[23:50] ---
