[00:02] ---
    Hey! She left again!
[00:04] ---
    Yep, she said she was
    going to visit a friend.
[00:07] ---
    Are you incapable of listening
    when people talk?
[00:11] ---
    It's her fault for going out!
    She never does that!
[00:14] ---
    Well, this just goes to show how much
    a part of this household she's become.
[00:20] ---
    She's got Kyo thinking,
    "Where has our belle gone?"
[00:24] ---
    "Soma"
[00:25] ---
    Wh-What a big place.
[00:28] ---
    I came here without telling
    Soma-kun and the others,
[00:32] ---
    just as Hatori-san instructed, but...
[00:34] ---
    Hallo!
[00:35] ---
    Tohru!
[00:37] ---
    You came right on time.
[00:46] ---
    Welcome to the Soma estate!
[00:48] ---
    Th-Thank you.
[00:51] ---
    Harry's house is this way!
[00:56] ---
    It's very quiet.
[00:59] ---
    Almost like no one lives here...
[01:02] ---
    This atmosphere is making me
    even more n-nervous!
[01:09] ---
    Welcome.
[01:11] ---
    "Nervous Exhaustion"
[01:13] ---
    Was the walk here that exhausting?
[01:15] ---
    No, no.
[01:17] ---
    Well, come in.
[01:19] ---
    Momiji, bring us something to drink.
[01:21] ---
    Ja!
[01:22] ---
    Thank you for inviting me.
[01:26] ---
    I'd almost forgotten what it was like
    to always have you with me
[01:40] ---
    You were always by my side
[01:48] ---
    Giving my life meaning
[01:54] ---
    Goodbye until we meet again
[02:01] ---
    I'll say thank you with a smile
[02:09] ---
    Oh please, keep being
    the person closest to me
[02:16] ---
    My heart only needed you to be strong
[02:23] ---
    I know that my path to tomorrow
[02:31] ---
    Is right here with you again
[03:04] ---
    It's kind of surprising to see
    a woman's photograph on his desk.
[03:09] ---
    He comes off as a very stern person,
    and his words always seem angry somehow...
[03:16] ---
    Could he have called me here to s-scold me
    for one of my many shortcomings?!
[03:21] ---
    Tohru?
[03:23] ---
    Are you sick? Should Harry
    give you a checkup?
[03:26] ---
    N-N-No, I'm absolutely fine!
[03:29] ---
    Well, go ahead and have a seat!
[03:36] ---
    Um, Hatori-san, did you have to
    take off work at your clinic for me?
[03:42] ---
    No. I don't treat anyone outside
    the Soma clan. I'm the family doctor.
[03:47] ---
    About half of it consists
    of babysitting Akito.
[03:50] ---
    Constantly getting sick is Akito's specialty.
[03:53] ---
    Plus, all of the Somas are super busy today,
    so nobody will come for an exam.
[03:59] ---
    Huh?
[04:00] ---
    They're getting ready for New Year's!
[04:01] ---
    It's a big event, so outside people help, too,
    not just inside ones.
[04:08] ---
    Outside? Inside?
[04:10] ---
    Yep! See, we call the main family "inside."
[04:14] ---
    Remember the tree-lined road
    you walked down to get here?
[04:18] ---
    We call the people who live there "outside."
[04:22] ---
    I think there are about einhundert...
    a hundred of them.
[04:25] ---
    And about 50 on the inside.
[04:28] ---
    All 150 of us are Somas!
[04:29] ---
    Th-That's amazing.
[04:32] ---
    The only people who can live "inside"
    are zodiac members like us
[04:36] ---
    or people who know our secret.
[04:38] ---
    Shii-chan and Yuki used to live inside, too.
[04:41] ---
    Kyo was outside, though.
[04:44] ---
    To put that another way:
    even among the family,
[04:47] ---
    only a small number of people
    know the zodiac secret.
[04:51] ---
    It's outrageous for a complete
    stranger like you to know it.
[04:56] ---
    Ordinarily, I would wipe
    your memory right away,
[05:00] ---
    but Akito didn't order me to,
    and even permitted you to live among us.
[05:05] ---
    Do you have a fun life at Shigure's house?
[05:09] ---
    Yes, very much.
[05:11] ---
    I recommend that you move out.
[05:14] ---
    Stay away from the Somas from now on.
[05:18] ---
    Our possessed family isn't
    fun and games like you think it is.
[05:24] ---
    We're monstrous. Loathsome.
[05:27] ---
    Cursed.
[05:30] ---
    Leave before you regret ever
    associating with the Somas.
[05:34] ---
    Akito is trying to use you.
[05:40] ---
    Wait here a moment.
[05:46] ---
    What did he mean by "cursed"...?
[05:50] ---
    Tohru...
[05:52] ---
    Harry's almost blind in his left eye.
[05:56] ---
    He used to have a girlfriend.
    Her name was Kana.
[06:00] ---
    She was really nice.
[06:03] ---
    They even got engaged.
[06:06] ---
    But Akito got angry.
[06:11] ---
    Super angry. Akito said they weren't allowed
    to get married, and then got violent...
[06:15] ---
    ...and injured Harry's eye.
[06:18] ---
    But you know what? Harry never blamed Akito.
[06:22] ---
    Kana blamed herself instead.
    
[06:25] ---
    She said it was her fault that he got hurt.
[06:28] ---
    She blamed herself so much
    it turned into a mental illness.
[06:34] ---
    So...
[06:36] ---
    ...Harry ended up erasing Kana's memories.
[06:40] ---
    He couldn't stand to watch
    Kana fall apart anymore.
[06:44] ---
    So he erased her memories
    of when they were in love.
[06:51] ---
    Kana left.
[06:53] ---
    Harry was crying.
[06:55] ---
    But, even then, he didn't blame Akito.
[07:00] ---
    Why not?
[07:02] ---
    Because that's the curse.
[07:05] ---
    Harry doesn't want there
    to be any more people like Kana.
[07:10] ---
    He doesn't want you to
    get hurt like Kana did.
[07:18] ---
    Wait, are you crying?
[07:21] ---
    Did I make you cry?!
[07:24] ---
    I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
[07:26] ---
    It's not that.
[07:28] ---
    It's just that Hatori-san is so kind...
[07:33] ---
    I'm glad I met all of you.
[07:38] ---
    Even if I have the life I do now
    because I'm being used for something,
[07:44] ---
    I want to say "thank you" for it.
[07:49] ---
    The only thing I know I'll never do
    is regret meeting Soma-kun and the others.
[07:54] ---
    I'm who I am now thanks to them.
[07:58] ---
    And me?
[08:01] ---
    Are you glad you met me?
[08:06] ---
    Of course.
[08:10] ---
    Don't worry. I promise
    we're not using Tohru-kun.
[08:14] ---
    --Shigure-san!
    --Shii-chan!
[08:16] ---
    Haa-san here just phrases things
    way too dramatically.
[08:19] ---
    What brought you here?
[08:21] ---
    My gut! It told me to come, Tohru-kun!
[08:23] ---
    We authors need to have a keen sixth sense.
[08:27] ---
    Stop lying. You only came to check
    on the New Year's prep.
[08:31] ---
    The common folk are so quick
    to envy geniuses. Tragic, really.
[08:34] ---
    --Stop drifting aimlessly and grow up.
[08:35] ---
    --They don't act it, but they're BFFs.
    --Stop drifting aimlessly and grow up.
[08:38] ---
    Haa-san, you'll go bald one day
    if you keep being such a worrywart.
[08:42] ---
    I keep telling you Akito-san
    means no harm to Tohru-kun,
[08:45] ---
    but you never believe me,
    and now you've scared her.
[08:50] ---
    What if she actually moves out?
[08:53] ---
    I'm okay, really. Thank you
    so much for worrying about me.
[08:58] ---
    But I plan to keep living with--
[09:01] ---
    That reminds me. I should give
    this to you before I forget.
[09:06] ---
    It's the camera from the culture festival.
[09:08] ---
    Why?
[09:09] ---
    That was our deal.
[09:13] ---
    I told you that if you came here,
    I'd give you that camera.
[09:17] ---
    I trust you know what will happen
    if you don't show up.
[09:21] ---
    Th-That's not what you said!
[09:23] ---
    --What's in the camera?
    --Hatori-san is just as much of an
    "I do it my way" person as Shigure-san.
[09:26] ---
    --Be quiet, you hack novelist.
    --Hatori-san is just as much of an
    "I do it my way" person as Shigure-san.
[09:28] ---
    Come to think of it, I haven't
    introduced you to Akito-san yet.
[09:31] ---
    It's all right, I don't mind.
    So, Hatori-san, you're one of the zodiac?
[09:38] ---
    What year are you?
[09:41] ---
    Great question! It's hilarious, really--
[09:44] ---
    I'll call up some publishers
[09:45] ---
    and tell them every embarrassing thing
    you've done since you were four.
[09:48] ---
    Sorry, can't tell you.
[09:50] ---
    I'm... sorry for today.
[09:55] ---
    Apparently, I do nothing but make people cry.
[10:02] ---
    Okay, Tohru-kun, I'm going to go
    take a peek at the New Year's setup.
[10:07] ---
    And I have to go to the dance rehearsal!
[10:09] ---
    Dance?
[10:10] ---
    It's like an annual ritual for us.
[10:14] ---
    Hatori, you're not allowed
    to do anything pervy to Tohru-kun.
[10:18] ---
    --Time to go.
    --R-Right!
[10:22] ---
    Bis bald!
[10:23] ---
    I'll see you later!
[10:37] ---
    Er, Hatori-san, are you
    and Shigure-san "BFFs"?
[10:42] ---
    "BFFs"...
[10:43] ---
    Huh?! Um, I mean, Momiji-san told me that!
[10:47] ---
    I'm stuck with him, that's all.
[10:53] ---
    Maybe he doesn't like that word?
[10:56] ---
    Oi, watch your feet.
[10:58] ---
    Oh, no--
[11:03] ---
    A... A-Are you all right, Hato-- Eep!
[11:11] ---
    H-Hatori-san?! Water!
    Wait, does he need salt water or fresh water?!
[11:15] ---
    Which one, Hatori-san?!
[11:19] ---
    This brings back memories.
    Honda Tohru's reaction is the same as hers.
[11:26] ---
    It's nice to meet you.
[11:28] ---
    My name is Kana Soma.
[11:30] ---
    I plan to work hard as your new assistant.
[11:33] ---
    Right.
[11:34] ---
    It's strange that we've never
    spoken to each other before
[11:36] ---
    despite being part of
    the same clan, isn't it?
[11:40] ---
    You're quite popular on the outside, by the way.
    Everyone says "Hatori-san is cool."
[11:43] ---
    Let's start work--
[11:45] ---
    It's snowing!
[11:48] ---
    I figured we'd get snow.
[11:50] ---
    Say, can I ask you a question?
[11:53] ---
    What comes of snow when it melts?
[11:57] ---
    Water, obviously.
[11:58] ---
    Bzzzt!
[12:03] ---
    Spring comes.
[12:05] ---
    Spring is my favorite season.
[12:10] ---
    She was my spring.
[12:14] ---
    I was snow. I'd frozen somewhere
    along the line in my dark cage...
[12:20] ---
    ...and she was a fresh, bright spring.
[12:34] ---
    I fell in love like it
    was a logical necessity.
[12:49] ---
    And then she found out.
[12:52] ---
    Hatori?!
[12:53] ---
    Water! Wait, does he need
    salt water or fresh water?!
[12:56] ---
    Which one, Hatori?!
[13:04] ---
    Just so you know,
[13:06] ---
    putting a real seahorse or seadragon
    in the bath would kill it.
[13:11] ---
    Oops.
[13:12] ---
    But now I finally know. I'd wondered
    why you won't hold me in your arms.
[13:20] ---
    But this makes sense. It's scary, huh?
[13:23] ---
    Of course you wouldn't want people to know.
[13:26] ---
    Of course you'd keep people at a distance.
[13:31] ---
    Especially someone you loved.
[13:34] ---
    But don't be scared.
[13:37] ---
    Don't reject me.
[13:40] ---
    I'm glad I met you, Hatori.
[13:45] ---
    Falling in love with you
    brought me happiness.
[13:50] ---
    I want to be with you.
[13:54] ---
    I wept.
[13:56] ---
    For the first time in my life,
    I felt somehow forgiven--somehow saved.
[14:03] ---
    Like a river of snow melted
    by the breath of spring,
[14:07] ---
    the tears wouldn't stop flowing.
[14:11] ---
    Then, for just under two months,
    life was like a good dream.
[14:15] ---
    She smiled and said it was like
    I'd condensed decades' worth of happiness.
[14:24] ---
    The dream came to its end the day
    we begged Akito to let us marry.
[14:32] ---
    --You think I'll give him
    to someone like you?!
[14:33] ---
    --Akito! Wait, calm down!
    --You think I'll give him to someone like you?!
[14:35] ---
    --Akito!
    --We don't need you! You can't even lift the curse!
[14:37] ---
    --Akito, calm down!
    --We don't need you! You can't even lift the curse!
[14:38] ---
    You're not wanted!
[14:42] ---
    --Hatori!
    --It's your fault.
[14:44] ---
    It's your fault if Hatori goes blind!
[14:47] ---
    --Kana-chan, get Hatori out of here!
    --It's your fault!
[14:49] ---
    It's your fault! It's your fault!
[14:52] ---
    It's your fault!
[14:57] ---
    She fell ill.
[15:00] ---
    No matter what I said or did,
    she crumbled into tears.
[15:06] ---
    The curse...
[15:08] ---
    She grew more and more ill.
[15:11] ---
    Her heart and mind suffered.
[15:17] ---
    Isn't this exactly what your
    suppression technique is for?
[15:21] ---
    You ought to erase her memories.
[15:24] ---
    You've never hesitated to with anyone else.
[15:29] ---
    What's making her suffer right
    now are her memories with you...
[15:33] ---
    Her love for you.
[15:36] ---
    Isn't it your final duty
    to save her from her suffering?
[15:43] ---
    What she really wants
    deep down is to be freed.
[15:48] ---
    She wants
[15:50] ---
    to forget.
[15:54] ---
    If only
[15:57] ---
    we'd never met.
[16:01] ---
    Are these my just deserts?
[16:05] ---
    Is this my punishment for
    just following orders
[16:07] ---
    and stripping away people's memories,
    even if hurt someone or made them cry?
[16:14] ---
    I never imagined I'd have
    to erase with my own hands
[16:18] ---
    the memories most precious to
    me from the mind most precious to me.
[16:26] ---
    I'm sorry...
[16:29] ---
    ...that I... couldn't protect you...
[16:35] ---
    I'm sorry...
[16:38] ---
    I'm sorry, Hatori.
[16:51] ---
    I'm the one who owes you an apology.
[16:54] ---
    And I'm the one who failed to protect you.
[17:00] ---
    Thank you, Kana.
[17:03] ---
    It's all right now.
[17:08] ---
    You don't have to suffer anymore.
[17:13] ---
    I'm glad I met you, Hatori.
[17:19] ---
    God, please let her meet someone else
    who really can make her happy.
[17:28] ---
    I'm willing to pray.
[17:31] ---
    I'm willing to be frozen
    in snow from now until I die.
[17:38] ---
    So please... please...
[17:42] ---
    Hatori-san. Hatori-san!
[17:45] ---
    Hatori-san! Are you all right?
[17:50] ---
    I'm cold.
[17:51] ---
    Th-That's because under
    your coat, you're... um... naked.
[17:56] ---
    So you saw?
[17:57] ---
    N-No! I just--
[17:59] ---
    You saw my zodiac form?
[18:01] ---
    E-Er, yes.
[18:02] ---
    "Psychological Complex"
[18:03] ---
    Huh?
[18:04] ---
    I-I don't think it's weird, though!
[18:07] ---
    It's very cute, and there's
    the surprise factor...
[18:10] ---
    O-Oh, your shoes.
[18:12] ---
    I'm sure they're by the stairs.
    I'll get them right away!
[18:20] ---
    You're finally getting married, eh?
[18:23] ---
    Congratulations, Kana.
[18:24] ---
    Thank you.
[18:26] ---
    So, what's the lucky man like?
[18:29] ---
    Hmm... My heart feels calm when I'm with him.
[18:32] ---
    His face isn't quite as handsome
    as Hatori-san's, though.
[18:35] ---
    What a thing to say!
[18:37] ---
    Come on, him not loving me back doesn't
    change the fact that he was my dream man.
[18:42] ---
    I wish I'd gotten to say hi to him today.
[18:45] ---
    Hey, no cheating on your honey!
[18:47] ---
    No chance of that!
[18:48] ---
    --I'm madly in love right now.
    --Two years after I last saw her,
[18:52] ---
    she's grinning like she did back then.
[18:56] ---
    So she found happiness, then.
[19:00] ---
    Good. I'm glad.
[19:04] ---
    Congratulations.
[19:06] ---
    Congratulations for what?
[19:09] ---
    Never mind.
[19:10] ---
    Oh! It's snowing, Hatori-san!
[19:14] ---
    No wonder we felt so cold today.
[19:20] ---
    Yes.
[19:22] ---
    Please make her happy.
[19:25] ---
    I'm willing to be frozen in snow
    from now until I die...
[19:31] ---
    What comes of snow when it melts?
[19:36] ---
    Hatori-san?
[19:39] ---
    Is something the matter?
[19:43] ---
    No.
[19:45] ---
    What do you think
[19:47] ---
    comes of snow when it melts?
[19:51] ---
    Let's see...
[19:55] ---
    Spring comes!
[19:57] ---
    No matter how cold it is now,
    spring will come again.
[20:02] ---
    It never fails. It's mysterious, isn't it?
[20:07] ---
    Yes.
[20:10] ---
    It is.
[20:14] ---
    Thank you for walking me to the gate.
[20:17] ---
    Sorry I put you through some trouble.
[20:19] ---
    What, are you still here?
[20:22] ---
    Shigure-san!
[20:23] ---
    Haa-san, have you been
    sexually harassing Tohru-kun?
[20:27] ---
    What? No, nothing like...
[20:29] ---
    Goodbye.
[20:31] ---
    Let's see each other again soon!
[20:34] ---
    It was a pain for Hatori
    to summon you here like that.
[20:39] ---
    But he's not a bad guy, really.
[20:41] ---
    I know. He was a very kind man.
[20:44] ---
    Okay, let's go home. I'm hungry!
[21:03] ---
    Hey, Tohru-kun, what's for dinner?
[21:05] ---
    Shigure-san.
[21:10] ---
    What's the "curse"?
[21:14] ---
    Shouldn't I...
[21:17] ---
    Shouldn't I do something to help?

[21:33] ---
    I feel like I understand
[21:36] ---
    more about the Somas today...

    ...and also like I don't understand a thing.
[21:41] ---
    It's a strange feeling.
[21:45] ---
    I wonder if I'll officially
    meet Akito someday.
