[00:01] ---
    It came abruptly.
[00:04] ---
    The end and the beginning.
[00:10] ---
    It was liberation and a curse.
[00:26] ---
    "Fruits Basket"
[01:56] ---
    Kureno.
[01:59] ---
    I'm cold.
[02:02] ---
    You still feel unwell, Akito?
[02:07] ---
    Kureno, come closer... come closer to me.
[02:13] ---
    Kureno, I speak cruelly of you at times,
[02:18] ---
    but you know that I don't
    say it out of spite, right?
[02:24] ---
    You're substandard, so I'm worried.
[02:27] ---
    You understand that it's not
    what I truly think, don't you?
[02:35] ---
    Yeah.
[02:36] ---
    You'll always stay by my side, right?
[02:46] ---
    Yeah.
[02:51] ---
    Uo-chan, what's the matter?
[02:54] ---
    Hmm? Nothing really.
[02:56] ---
    Just thinking how freakin' cold it is,
    despite this blue sky.
[03:00] ---
    We're being forced to have
    graduation rehearsal in this damn cold.
[03:04] ---
    We're graduating.
    Let 'em do what they want.
[03:06] ---
    B-But that's...
[03:08] ---
    For the sake of socialization.
[03:10] ---
    Well, I'd better not catch a cold
    for socialization's sakes.
[03:14] ---
    Incidentally, I've never caught one before.
[03:18] ---
    It's true that idiots never catch colds.
[03:21] ---
    You sound too happy.
[03:23] ---
    Man, seems I can't catch a break
    since third term started.
[03:26] ---
    Plus, New Year's went by in a flash.
[03:30] ---
    A lot happened over New Year's.
[03:34] ---
    A lot...
[03:36] ---
    It doesn't make sense.
[03:38] ---
    I woke up lying down.
[03:41] ---
    But I'm sure I slept sitting up.
[03:43] ---
    Y-You slept sitting up?!
[03:46] ---
    Oh, could Shisho-san have lain you down?
[03:49] ---
    Impossible.
[03:50] ---
    I'd definitely have woken up if someone
    entered, especially if they'd touched me.
[03:56] ---
    Even if it was Hatsuharu-san?
[03:59] ---
    Not if it were Haru, though...
[04:03] ---
    How do you know about Haru and me?!
[04:06] ---
    Who was it? Who told you?
[04:09] ---
    I-I couldn't say...
[04:12] ---
    That conversation made me
    think it was a possibility.
[04:16] ---
    I let it slip out without thinking!
[04:19] ---
    Um... well... it's...
[04:22] ---
    Oh! It must be a woman's intuition!
[04:26] ---
    I doubt that's a gift
    you've been endowed with.
[04:31] ---
    Whatever.
[04:32] ---
    Never say that name again.
[04:35] ---
    We broke up.
[04:39] ---
    Honda-san?
[04:40] ---
    Oh, sorry. Was I... intruding?
[04:44] ---
    No, not at all.
[04:47] ---
    I came to greet you for the New Year.
    I look forward to another year with you.
[04:51] ---
    Yes! And I with y--
[04:55] ---
    Yuki-kun! Your forehead's hurt!
[04:57] ---
    Oh, this? I'm fine.
[05:00] ---
    B-But... what happened?
[05:03] ---
    I stood up to Akito and got a whack for it.
[05:10] ---
    To be honest,
    I was quavering with fear inside.
[05:14] ---
    But don't you think I did a good job?
[05:24] ---
    Yes.
[05:27] ---
    No fair. I want to be praised, too.
[05:32] ---
    Momiji-kun! Happy New Year!
[05:36] ---
    Did you do something worthy
    of Honda-san's praise, too?
[05:39] ---
    Yup!
[05:40] ---
    I'll head back to Shigure's first.
[05:43] ---
    Yup, okay!
[05:46] ---
    Tohru, Tohru!
[05:49] ---
    I got the DVD to Kureno.
[05:53] ---
    I was so nervous giving it to him,
[05:56] ---
    but I'm glad I could pass it to him.
[06:01] ---
    Thank...
[06:03] ---
    Hey, Tohru. Let's pray.
[06:07] ---
    That he'll watch it.
[06:10] ---
    That Uo-chan's feelings...
[06:14] ---
    ...will reach him.
[06:17] ---
    Tohru?
[06:19] ---
    What're you doing just standing there, Tohru?
[06:21] ---
    If you need a favor,
    all you've gotta do is ask.
[06:23] ---
    Oh, no, um, er...
[06:25] ---
    Let's get going, you two.
[06:28] ---
    Oh, coming!
[06:30] ---
    Yeah.
[06:32] ---
    Her affection...
[06:34] ---
    Bedridden since the New Year.
[06:38] ---
    As usual, the emotional state is the cause,
[06:42] ---
    but it's more prolonged than usual this time...
[06:44] ---
    Yuki-kun's defiance probably caused great shock.
[06:49] ---
    Why not let Yuki-kun take responsibility
    and make him tend Akito?
[06:52] ---
    What nonsense.
[06:54] ---
    And you don't intend to visit?
    Isn't that why you came today?
[06:59] ---
    I tried. I tried and was yelled at
    and turned away at the door.
[07:03] ---
    My attitude wasn't pleasing, it seems.
[07:06] ---
    How come... How come you didn't
    immediately come to my side
[07:10] ---
    when Yuki said those terrible things to me?!
[07:13] ---
    Why are you always like that?!
[07:15] ---
    Why don't you ever choose to put me first?!
[07:20] ---
    You're one to talk.
[07:22] ---
    When you're the one who chose Kureno.
[07:28] ---
    Akito didn't choose anybody.
[07:30] ---
    The God can have a favorite
    of us zodiac members.
[07:37] ---
    But Hatori...
[07:39] ---
    ...haven't you ever felt
    something off about Kureno?
[07:46] ---
    He's...
[07:48] ---
    Yes, Kureno might be...
[07:54] ---
    Don't accept it?
[07:57] ---
    Because you're scared? Because it's sad?
[08:00] ---
    "Star of the Owl"
[08:01] ---
    Because you're sentimentally attached...
[08:06] ---
    ...to the "bond"?
[08:09] ---
    That's devious.
[08:11] ---
    You're the last person I want
    to be called "devious" by.
[08:14] ---
    Ah, yes. Right, I'm--
[08:17] ---
    Oh? Who did I say this to before?
    I can't recall.
[08:22] ---
    No matter, whoever it was.
[08:25] ---
    Right.
[08:27] ---
    I'm weak, intolerant, and worthless.
    The worst kind of man.
[08:34] ---
    The worst part about you
    is that you're aware of that,
[08:38] ---
    yet you don't feel it's wrong in the slightest.
[08:45] ---
    I wonder what's on this?
[08:46] ---
    "Watch this alone"
[08:51] ---
    A present from Tohru.
[08:56] ---
    As long as you're alive,
    you will continue to have new wishes!
[09:11] ---
    "2-D
    It's Cinderella-ish"
[09:13] ---
    Hey.
[09:15] ---
    Hey, Kureno.
[09:18] ---
    What does it feel like to become a bird?
[09:22] ---
    What does it feel like to freely fly in the sky?
[09:28] ---
    Is it fun? Exciting?
[09:32] ---
    You're so lucky.
[09:34] ---
    You're so lucky, Kureno.
[09:36] ---
    I wish I could be a bird, too.
[09:39] ---
    Wipe that disgruntled look off your face.
    We're having this ball for you.
[09:45] ---
    There are people out there who can't see
    the ones they wish to see!
[09:50] ---
    I want to see him.
[09:51] ---
    I want to see him!
[09:53] ---
    Come see me, dammit!
[09:57] ---
    But... But, she seemed so sad and lonely
    that she couldn't see you again.
[10:07] ---
    Don't abandon me!
[10:29] ---
    Yes, yes. Coming now.
[10:33] ---
    Hello--
[10:36] ---
    "Ocean Waters of the Scholar"
[10:37] ---
    Now this is unusual.
[10:40] ---
    Actually, it's a first.
[10:43] ---
    What? Tohru-kun?
[10:45] ---
    She's still at school.
[10:47] ---
    And why are you asking for
    Tohru-kun of all people?
[10:50] ---
    I don't see how you two would be acquainted.
[10:53] ---
    For starters, the chance of her being first
    to pick up the phone is pretty slim.
[11:00] ---
    You're surprisingly featherbrained.
[11:03] ---
    What do you want with her?
[11:07] ---
    It's something I should probably
    tell you, too, Shigure-niisan.
[11:16] ---
    At long last, huh?
[11:18] ---
    Say, Kureno, mind if I ask about something
    I've been thinking for a while?
[11:24] ---
    Could... Could it be that you...
[11:31] ---
    I'm home now!
[11:33] ---
    Welcome back. It's just you?
[11:35] ---
    Yes. Yuki-kun has student council
    and Kyo-kun is at Shisho-san's.
[11:40] ---
    Sorry, I know you just got back,
    but can you buy some envelopes for me?
[11:45] ---
    Two packs of A4 size.
[11:46] ---
    Yes, I'd be happy to!
[11:48] ---
    Do you need anything else?
[11:51] ---
    Nope. Oh, you can change first.
[11:54] ---
    It's okay. I'll be going now.
[12:00] ---
    See you later.
[12:05] ---
    Oh, yes. I'll get some extra trash bags as well.
[12:10] ---
    And then...
[12:12] ---
    Oh, sparrows!
[12:16] ---
    They're adorable!
[12:18] ---
    Sorry, I don't have food for you.
[12:21] ---
    Wow, they're so friendly.
[12:28] ---
    Could it be that you...
[12:36] ---
    Kureno? Where's Kureno?
[12:39] ---
    He said that he had
    an urgent matter to take care of.
[12:43] ---
    We repeatedly urged him to wait at least
    until you awoke, but he wouldn't listen.
[12:49] ---
    Heard from him?
[12:50] ---
    We cannot get a hold of him.
    His phone seems to be off--
[12:53] ---
    Find him.
[12:54] ---
    Yes.
[12:56] ---
    He's never left without permission before.
[13:03] ---
    Why?!
[13:10] ---
    Kureno-san?
[13:13] ---
    The birds...
[13:15] ---
    The birds flew away from Kureno-san.
[13:21] ---
    Kureno-san is possessed by the Rooster...
[13:26] ---
    ...and the zodiac members...
    their respective animals should...
[13:31] ---
    They just show up around me.
[13:33] ---
    Rats to the Rat, rabbits to
    the Rabbit, and dogs to the Dog.
[13:38] ---
    H-Huh?
[13:42] ---
    ...and for some reason we transform...
[13:48] ---
    ...when hugged by the opposite sex.
[13:51] ---
    I'm different now.
[13:56] ---
    I don't transform, either.
[13:59] ---
    My curse has already...
[14:03] ---
    ...broken.
[14:06] ---
    My curse has already broken.
[14:12] ---
    It happened when I was
    slightly younger than you.
[14:17] ---
    So I'm no longer one of the zodiac members.
[14:22] ---
    I can't...
[14:24] ---
    Lucky you.
[14:26] ---
    You're so lucky, Kureno.
[14:29] ---
    I can't fly anymore.
[14:33] ---
    How did the curse break?
[14:35] ---
    Even I don't know.
[14:38] ---
    It happened suddenly.
[14:41] ---
    The curse broke without any warning.
[14:48] ---
    It was like my field of vision opened up.
[14:51] ---
    Within myself, there was only me.
[14:54] ---
    There was nothing to drive away.
[14:58] ---
    The sky looked so blue.
[15:01] ---
    I became sad when I thought about
    how I'd never fly in that sky again.
[15:08] ---
    And I was happy.
[15:11] ---
    I felt like I became a human... finally.
[15:16] ---
    I was happy.
[15:19] ---
    But the other zodiac members
    still think that you're the Rooster.
[15:28] ---
    You still stay by Akito-san's side.
[15:33] ---
    Isn't there something that still binds you?
[15:42] ---
    Sorry, your present was for nothing.
[15:48] ---
    Sorry. That's all I came to tell you.
[15:53] ---
    I won't see Arisa. I will continue
    to stay by Akito's side.
[16:02] ---
    Only twice. I only saw
    and talked to Arisa twice.
[16:09] ---
    Minor, insignificant meetings.
[16:14] ---
    If I never see her again,
[16:16] ---
    they will become insignificant memories
    that will eventually fade away and disappear.
[16:25] ---
    That's all they'll become.
[16:28] ---
    So you don't have to worry about...
[16:40] ---
    Then show me a happier smile.
[16:45] ---
    We met during that unnecessary time, though!
[16:51] ---
    I wanted to see you way more than...
[16:57] ---
    ...way more than I thought! So...
[17:04] ---
    Come see me, dammit!
[17:07] ---
    I want to see her!
[17:08] ---
    I want to see her!
[17:10] ---
    I want to see her, but...
    I only saw her twice...
[17:16] ---
    ...but she was the first person
    I fell in love with
[17:20] ---
    as my own person
    after becoming truly human.
[17:25] ---
    I can embrace her all I want.
[17:31] ---
    There's no longer a spirit inside me.
[17:35] ---
    I was so easily freed from the curse that
    still torments the other zodiac members.
[17:43] ---
    Me, alone. Only I'm free to go wherever I wish,
    to love whomever I choose.
[17:52] ---
    But...
[17:54] ---
    But for that reason, I must be...
[18:00] ---
    I must stay by Akito's side!
[18:06] ---
    Akito!
[18:12] ---
    --Akito! Calm down.
    --What happened?
[18:15] ---
    What's the matter, Akito-sa--
[18:16] ---
    Stay away!
[18:18] ---
    Nobody come near until I say so!
[18:20] ---
    Akit--
[18:21] ---
    I'll kill anybody who comes!
[18:23] ---
    I'll kill you!
[18:28] ---
    Akito?
[18:29] ---
    ...hy?
[18:31] ---
    Why?
[18:33] ---
    Why? Why?
[18:35] ---
    Why did it break?
[18:38] ---
    Why? It's our bond.
[18:42] ---
    I don't know, either!
[18:44] ---
    It happened so suddenly.
[18:46] ---
    Suddenly?
[18:48] ---
    I really don't know what happened--
[18:54] ---
    What's that in your eyes?
[18:58] ---
    Ever since...
[19:00] ---
    No!
[19:01] ---
    Akito...
[19:02] ---
    Why do you look at me with
    such distant... distant... distant eyes?!
[19:10] ---
    No!
[19:13] ---
    Don't go! Don't go! Don't go!
[19:15] ---
    Don't go anywhere! Don't leave me!
[19:19] ---
    Stay by my side! Don't leave me!
[19:21] ---
    Stay by my side forever!
[19:24] ---
    Don't leave me behind!
[19:26] ---
    Don't... Don't...
[19:29] ---
    Don't abandon me!
[19:31] ---
    Kureno!
[19:34] ---
    Please! Please...
[19:38] ---
    I beg you... Don't go...
[19:45] ---
    I couldn't abandon Akito.
[19:50] ---
    To Akito, our bond is everything.
[19:55] ---
    The God cannot exist without the zodiac members.
[19:59] ---
    So the day my curse broke,
    I swore that I would stay with Akito.
[20:08] ---
    Always. I'll always be
    by your side, Akito. I swear.
[20:14] ---
    I swear it.
[20:16] ---
    If that would dry those tears...
[20:23] ---
    I deceived the other zodiac members
    and pretended that I was still the Rooster.
[20:29] ---
    I thought... if that would dry those tears...
[20:38] ---
    Did you feel pity?
[20:40] ---
    I mean, with the curse broken,
    you no longer had a bond.
[20:46] ---
    Don't you think you should've
    abandoned Akito-san?
[20:48] ---
    For Akito-san's sake...
    back then and this time, too?
[20:56] ---
    I can't abandon Akito!
[21:00] ---
    It's true that the curse is broken,
    and the bond that I felt back then is gone.
[21:09] ---
    I may have embraced Akito out of pity...
[21:15] ---
    ...but I cannot abandon Akito.
[21:17] ---
    I swore! I swore that
    I would stay by Akito's side.
[21:23] ---
    Until Akito no longer needs me.
    Until that day, I will stay forever.
[21:30] ---
    I decided I would live for the one
    who cried until sobs racked their body.
[21:39] ---
    Weaker than anyone...
[21:43] ---
    ...more fragile than anyone.
[21:46] ---
    For the one... so afraid...
[21:52] ---
    For a sorrowful girl.
[22:01] ---
    A girl...?
[22:04] ---
    Akito-san is...
[22:11] ---
    ...a girl.
[22:13] ---
    
[22:15] ---
