[00:25] ---
    Why...?
[00:37] ---
    Why, Big Sister Yomi...?
[00:41] ---
    Do not...
[00:44] ---
    call me your sister!
[00:55] ---
    That day three years ago,
    I met a dear person to me.

[01:02] ---
    Vigil for Tsuchimiya
[01:03] ---
    Watch your step, Dad.
[01:07] ---
    That day three years ago,
    I met a grieving girl.

[01:17] ---
    It was an afternoon
    dimmed by the pouring rain.

[01:30] ---
    It was destiny that brought
    the two carriers of fate together.

[01:38] ---
    It was... the beginning of a story.
[01:38] ---
    The Times of the Chance Encounter
[01:59] ---
    Master Tsuchimiya!
[02:10] ---
    Master Tsuchimiya!
[02:12] ---
    Master Tsuchimiya!
[02:18] ---
    This latest task
    has dealt a serious blow
[02:22] ---
    to our clan of Vanquishers
    and to all living things that reside here.
[02:31] ---
    Although the phantoms were eliminated,
[02:34] ---
    Master Tsuchimiya's wife
    unfortunately passed away.
[02:40] ---
    As we speak, Master Tsuchimiya
    is performing the sealing ritual
[02:44] ---
    to fully link Byakuei, the Spirit
    Eater inherited from his wife,
[02:49] ---
    to his own spirit.
[02:52] ---
    As our leader, Master
    Tsuchimiya has always served
[02:55] ---
    in a coordinating role
    for our many family branches,
[02:58] ---
    but now that he is
    host to a Spirit Eater
[03:00] ---
    he will focus on exorcism
    work on the front lines.
[03:03] ---
    Therefore, I, Naraku Isayama,
    have been given his position.
[03:11] ---
    I humbly ask for your assistance.
[03:21] ---
    Hello.
[03:23] ---
    Can I sit next to you?
[03:33] ---
    Kagura Tsuchimiya?
[03:36] ---
    It's nice to meet you.
    I'm Yomi Isayama.
[03:41] ---
    Your father inherited Byakuei
[03:43] ---
    as the 27th generation
    head of the Tsuchimiya family.
[03:49] ---
    Your mother had inherited it
    from the previous generation.
[03:52] ---
    It's a very important role
    that goes back centuries.
[03:55] ---
    Someday it'll be passed on to you,
    and as a fellow clan member
[03:59] ---
    I've been assigned to support
    you from behind the scenes.
[04:04] ---
    As your father will be extremely busy,
[04:06] ---
    we'll be taking care of you at our place.
[04:10] ---
    So let's be friends, Kagura!
[04:15] ---
    Oh! You've grown, Kagura!
[04:20] ---
    Do you remember when you
    visited a long time ago?
[04:24] ---
    No...
[04:25] ---
    That's okay. You were still little
    at the time. It's understandable.
[04:30] ---
    Okay.
[04:31] ---
    Did you know that after the meeting,
    he was having second thoughts
[04:35] ---
    about being the head
    of a clan of Vanquishers?
[04:38] ---
    It's an honorable position!
    You need to act more dignified about it!
[04:44] ---
    There's no need to act overly polite.
    Your father and I are old friends.
[04:49] ---
    Think of us as family
    and make yourself at home.
[04:53] ---
    Okay.
[04:54] ---
    Come with me, Kagura!
[05:00] ---
    Use this.
[05:02] ---
    Starting today, this is your room.
[05:07] ---
    We can go get your things
    tomorrow. I'll have him drive us.
[05:11] ---
    That's okay.
[05:12] ---
    You don't need to
    hold back to be polite.
[05:14] ---
    You're going to be
    living here for a while.
[05:16] ---
    You'll need things, right?
    Like books and games and stuff?
[05:20] ---
    This is...
[05:35] ---
    This is all I need.
[05:46] ---
    I'm back!
[05:49] ---
    It's a little messy in here
    but make yourself at home.
[05:52] ---
    Okay.
[05:53] ---
    Which do you want? Juice or tea?
[05:56] ---
    I don't really...
    Okay, I'll make some tea!
[06:01] ---
    How about a snack?
    What would you like?
[06:05] ---
    How about some potato chips then?
[06:10] ---
    Let's play a game!
    Do you have a favorite?
[06:13] ---
    I don't really...
[06:15] ---
    What do you normally do?
    Huh?
[06:17] ---
    When you're alone.
    Oh. I train...
[06:23] ---
    Umm...
    Yes?!
[06:25] ---
    Your dojo...
[06:27] ---
    Do you mind if I use it?
[06:55] ---
    You've definitely been
    trained by Master Tsuchimiya!
[06:58] ---
    You have real talent!
[06:59] ---
    Thank you.
[07:02] ---
    Want to have a bout?
    Huh?
[07:04] ---
    Just for practice.
[07:06] ---
    Severe hands, saintly heart
[07:16] ---
    Don't worry about me.
    You can strike with full force.
[07:35] ---
    Yes. You're very quick with
    a sword for someone your age.
[07:39] ---
    With some more training,
    you can get even better!
[07:42] ---
    I'm not good...
[07:45] ---
    I'm not good at all...
[07:50] ---
    A loss is a loss.
[07:51] ---
    Hold on, Kagura.
    Don't think so rigidly.
[07:55] ---
    You can just try harder next time.
[07:57] ---
    In a real fight,
    there is no "next time."
[07:59] ---
    A real fight?
[08:01] ---
    Despite how I look,
    I'm actually pretty skilled. So...
[08:05] ---
    In a real fight, you don't get to
    choose how skilled your opponent is.
[08:08] ---
    That's what my father told me.
[08:10] ---
    To lose means death.
[08:13] ---
    When someone with an
    important responsibility dies,
[08:15] ---
    one hundred innocent people die.
[08:18] ---
    We Vanquishers have a
    responsibility to not die easily.
[08:23] ---
    Severe hands, saintly heart
[08:24] ---
    Yes. My father said
[08:27] ---
    that I should greatly regret when I lose,
    even if it's only during training.
[08:32] ---
    That's pigheaded.
[08:34] ---
    Your dad is really pigheaded.
    Pigheaded?
[08:38] ---
    And he's a real crank!
[08:41] ---
    A crank?
[08:42] ---
    You should just be happy
    when someone praises you,
[08:45] ---
    regardless of whether you won or lost!
[08:51] ---
    Now it's your turn
    to do stuff with me!
[08:56] ---
    Here you go!
[08:59] ---
    Huh?
[09:01] ---
    What food do you hate?
[09:04] ---
    I was told not to be picky...
    Your dad told you that?
[09:08] ---
    Out with it. You have to hate something.
[09:11] ---
    Well, umm...
[09:13] ---
    Century eggs...
[09:14] ---
    Great! If you lose, we'll have vegetable
    and century egg stir fry tonight!
[09:19] ---
    If you win, then I'll make you
    something you like!
[09:22] ---
    Okay, game start!
[09:24] ---
    I- I'm not ready yet!
[09:25] ---
    A loss is a loss in games too!
    There are no "hold ons"!
[09:28] ---
    That's not fair, Ms. Yomi!
[09:32] ---
    Big Sister Yomi.
[09:33] ---
    Huh?
[09:35] ---
    Not "Ms."
[09:38] ---
    Okay!
[09:44] ---
    The century eggs were
    surprisingly good, huh?
[09:46] ---
    Y-yeah...
[09:48] ---
    Really? Then let's
    have some tomorrow too!
[09:51] ---
    Huh?!
[09:53] ---
    Just kidding!
[09:55] ---
    I know, Kagura. Why don't
    you come to my room?
[09:58] ---
    Huh?
[09:59] ---
    We can sleep together
    until you're used to things here.
[10:01] ---
    But...
[10:03] ---
    Is that a bad idea?
[10:04] ---
    No...
[10:05] ---
    Then it's decided!
    Come to my room!
[10:07] ---
    Change into your pajamas first.
    Then we can continue our game!
[10:11] ---
    Okay!
[10:14] ---
    Your mother's condition is worsening.
    Hurry to the hospital right away.
[10:17] ---
    Your mother is sick?
[10:21] ---
    It's a call code. It helps when I need
    to get out of class or something.
[10:25] ---
    A call code?
[10:26] ---
    For my job. I'm still
    only part-time, though.
[10:31] ---
    Sorry. I really have to go.
[10:51] ---
    No, it's okay. I'll be fine.
[10:56] ---
    I'm sorry. I'll probably be home late,
    so you can go to bed before me.
[11:00] ---
    Okay.
[11:17] ---
    Yomi!
[11:20] ---
    Disposal team has departed.
    ETA to target, 2100 hours.
[11:27] ---
    I see. Thank you.
[11:29] ---
    And here is the activity log
    of the foreign dispatch team
[11:32] ---
    that perished in the airplane
    accident last month.
[11:35] ---
    It appears that the team leader,
    Professor Mitogawa,
[11:37] ---
    was looking for something
    in Vatican City.
[11:40] ---
    Professor Mitogawa...
[11:42] ---
    His family line uses Shamanism.
[11:45] ---
    His area of expertise is in... Bane Stones.
[11:49] ---
    Did he find any?
[11:50] ---
    No.
[11:51] ---
    I've contacted someone in charge
    via the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
[11:55] ---
    but I haven't been
    given any clear details.
[11:57] ---
    I see. Continue to investigate.
[12:01] ---
    Yes. Also, concerning the exorcism
    operation the other day...
[12:05] ---
    Unfortunately, we're still unable
    to confirm complete purification.
[12:10] ---
    The phantom appears to be gone,
    but we still lack reliable proof.
[12:16] ---
    It put up a very difficult fight,
    even for the Spirit Eater Byakuei.
[12:19] ---
    It would be dangerous
    to turn a blind eye to it.
[12:22] ---
    Don't overlook even the faintest
    residual thought energy.
[12:25] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[12:35] ---
    So many serious incidents
    since being given this position...

[12:39] ---
    You certainly passed this role on to me
    during a troublesome time, great-aunt...

[12:55] ---
    Sorry! Been waiting long?
[12:56] ---
    No...
[12:58] ---
    Let's go home!
[13:00] ---
    How was school? Was it fun?
[13:02] ---
    Yeah.
[13:03] ---
    Today in science class we learned
    all about how levers work.
[13:08] ---
    Oh, wow!
[13:09] ---
    School is important, so I need
    to learn a lot while I'm young.
[13:14] ---
    That's what my father said.
    That's what my father said.
[13:19] ---
    Hey, Kagura. What's your favorite food?
[13:21] ---
    Huh?
[13:22] ---
    I'm going to make your favorite food
    tonight to make up for yesterday.
[13:27] ---
    Really?!
    Yep! What would you like?
[13:32] ---
    Anything at all.
[13:37] ---
    Cream croquettes!
    Cream croquettes?
[13:41] ---
    Oh, those take a lot of work to make...
[13:44] ---
    No good?
[13:47] ---
    Okay! Cream croquettes it is!
[13:49] ---
    Will you help me make 'em?
    Yeah!
[13:52] ---
    Then let's stop by the supermarket!
[13:59] ---
    I'm sorry, Kagura.
    I have to go to work...
[14:03] ---
    Do you know how to get home?
    Yeah. Will you be home tonight?
[14:07] ---
    I won't be too late... I think.
[14:10] ---
    No, sorry. I don't really know.
[14:13] ---
    Okay.
[14:14] ---
    Sorry.
[14:17] ---
    That's what my mom said too.
[14:20] ---
    She told me to wait.
    She said she'd be home soon.
[14:24] ---
    I told her I'd be a good girl
    and to come back soon...
[14:31] ---
    But then...
[14:34] ---
    Mom...
[14:38] ---
    I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
[14:45] ---
    I won't leave you alone.
[14:49] ---
    I'll protect you.
[14:54] ---
    Let's go!
    Huh?
[14:55] ---
    I'll show you what my job is!
[14:59] ---
    It's okay! Or do you not want to see?
[15:04] ---
    Come with me. We'll go together.
[15:07] ---
    Together?
[15:08] ---
    Yeah.
[15:11] ---
    Okay!
[15:18] ---
    Get in!
[15:21] ---
    What took so long?!
[15:22] ---
    Don't shout like that, Iwahata!
    You'll scare her!
[15:25] ---
    Who's she?! You can't bring a citizen
    on a confidential assignment!
[15:29] ---
    She's Kagura Tsuchimiya.
[15:32] ---
    Tsuchimiya? You mean
    the Tsuchimiya family?!
[15:38] ---
    Oh, this is Nabu and Nabu.
[15:41] ---
    Nabu. Nice to meet you.
[15:43] ---
    Nabu. Nice to meet you too.
[15:46] ---
    They're twin brothers.
[15:47] ---
    One of 'em is the younger Nabu
    and one of 'em is the older Nabu.
[15:51] ---
    They have the same name?
[15:53] ---
    Supposedly that's the custom
    where they come from.
[15:55] ---
    Nabu.
[15:56] ---
    Is she a new member?
[15:58] ---
    I'm Kazuki Sakuraba.
[16:00] ---
    You seem a little young for this,
    but we need all the help we can get.
[16:03] ---
    Good to have you on board!
[16:05] ---
    Noriyuki Izuna.
[16:07] ---
    The more young women
    the merrier, I say.
[16:10] ---
    Do you, now?
[16:12] ---
    Don't you dare try anything funny!
[16:14] ---
    I know. I only have eyes for you, Yomi.
[16:21] ---
    What are you doing?! Not in here!
[16:23] ---
    Here.
[16:25] ---
    Take it.
[16:27] ---
    It's the Michael 12,
    a pneumatic Vanquisher sword.
[16:31] ---
    It's the master's latest work.
    It arrived today.
[16:33] ---
    Hold on, Iwahata!
[16:35] ---
    She's a Tsuchimiya. She should
    be able to handle it easily enough.
[16:39] ---
    That isn't the issue here!
[16:41] ---
    If you pull the trigger when you draw,
[16:42] ---
    the pressurized air
    will triple its cutting force.
[16:47] ---
    Maybe bringing her
    along was a bad idea...
[16:51] ---
    Countermeasure Division
    to disposal team.
[16:53] ---
    Disposal team here.
[16:55] ---
    Reports indicate that this
    latest supernatural disturbance
[16:57] ---
    has appeared in the Kanda
    area of Chiyoda Ward.
[16:59] ---
    Hurry to the scene at once.
    Roger that!
[17:11] ---
    What is that?!
[17:12] ---
    You have good sight.
    You're a Tsuchimiya all right.
[17:16] ---
    So it is a leftover from yesterday.
[17:19] ---
    Let's hurry and take care of it
    while it's still sealed inside the barrier.
[17:22] ---
    It'll be a pain if it fully regenerates.
[17:24] ---
    I'll do it.
    Big Sister Yomi...
[17:29] ---
    Watch closely, Kagura.
    This is what our job is.
[17:36] ---
    We're the disposal team for the Supernatural
    Disaster Countermeasure Division,
[17:39] ---
    part of the Ministry of Environment's
    Natural Environment Bureau.
[17:42] ---
    We dispose of ghosts
    that bring harm to our world
[17:45] ---
    and phantoms that bear
    grudges and curse people.
[17:56] ---
    Ranguren!
[18:00] ---
    That's a chimera.
[18:02] ---
    Chimera?
[18:03] ---
    A spirit beast that resides in
    the Shishio, Yomi's sacred sword.
[18:08] ---
    A spirit beast chimera...
[18:12] ---
    You fool!
[18:13] ---
    What were you thinking,
    placing in danger
[18:15] ---
    the girl we're supposed to look after?!
[18:19] ---
    I'm sorry.
[18:21] ---
    I only agreed to take her in
    because you kept insisting on it!
[18:25] ---
    You are not to do anything so
    selfish again! Is that understood?!
[18:29] ---
    Yes.
[18:33] ---
    I got in trouble.
[18:35] ---
    I'm sorry...
[18:37] ---
    No, it's no problem.
    It's always like this.
[18:41] ---
    Big Sister Yomi...
[18:45] ---
    What he said earlier...
[18:48] ---
    He said you insisted on it...
[18:51] ---
    Yeah.
[18:52] ---
    Why?
[18:54] ---
    That's a good question.
    I dunno, maybe I wanted a sister.
[18:59] ---
    A sister?
[19:01] ---
    Don't you want a brother
    or sister, Kagura?
[19:03] ---
    I don't know. But I think
    you might've been a good sister.
[19:08] ---
    Let's be sisters, then!
[19:10] ---
    Really?!
[19:11] ---
    Okay! Starting today, you're my lackey!
    Huh?! But I'm your little sister!
[19:16] ---
    To a big sister, a little sister
    is the same as a lackey!
[19:19] ---
    What?!
[19:21] ---
    You can have this. It's a good luck charm.
    A good luck charm?
[19:24] ---
    Yeah. But in exchange,
    you'll have to wait until you're older
[19:28] ---
    to do this part-time work.
[19:30] ---
    Otherwise Dad'll get mad again.
[19:33] ---
    Okay! Thanks!
[19:36] ---
    But you're lucky he gets mad at you.
[19:39] ---
    Why's that?
[19:40] ---
    Because my father
    and I rarely ever talked...
[19:47] ---
    He's strict during training,
    but we hardly ever talk any other time...
[19:52] ---
    Oh. But I'm jealous
    that you could live together.
[19:58] ---
    Huh?
[19:59] ---
    My parents are gone.
[20:02] ---
    But...
[20:03] ---
    My real family was possessed
    and killed by phantoms when I was little.
[20:11] ---
    It was my dad now who got
    rid of the phantoms that killed them.
[20:16] ---
    I was adopted into the Isayama family.
[20:21] ---
    That's the Shishio,
[20:23] ---
    a sacred sword that's passed
    down in the Isayama family.
[20:26] ---
    Dad left it in my hands, even
    though I'm not connected by blood.
[20:31] ---
    He raised me like
    I was his real daughter.
[20:35] ---
    So I want to return that kindness.
[20:40] ---
    I'm going to inherit the fate
    of the Isayama family...
[20:43] ---
    The duty of being a Vanquisher...
[20:46] ---
    Fate... Duty...
[20:48] ---
    Yes. That's my entire reason for existing.
[21:23] ---
    Sir! The hospital e-mailed me!
    My mom's condition, it's...!
[21:28] ---
    Yes. Go and see her. Take care.
[21:35] ---
    Thanks as always!
[21:46] ---
    Sorry to call during class, Kagura.
[21:48] ---
    Sheesh. I feel ashamed,
    always lying to my teachers.
[21:52] ---
    You were sleeping.
[21:54] ---
    You have drool on your face.
[22:00] ---
    Urgh!
[22:02] ---
    That's another one for my
    "Weird Faces of Kagura" collection!
[22:05] ---
    Delete that collection!
[22:08] ---
    Here!
[22:18] ---
    Yomi!
[22:26] ---
    Here we go!
[22:47] ---
    If pain is reflected
    in those sacred eyes

[22:53] ---
    why don't you try turning around?
[22:55] ---
    A trick that unleashes passion
[22:59] ---
    Their footing gives way,
    the two can't go back

[23:05] ---
    Don't let go of the hand I extended
[23:10] ---
    Those gentler times will disappear again
[23:16] ---
    I can't allow our memories to be defiled
[23:21] ---
    This is a Tir na nog of betrayal
[23:24] ---
    At the ends of this wandering heart
[23:27] ---
    let my prayers reach you
    as I search for the light

[23:33] ---
    My fettered wings
[23:35] ---
    head into the great, big sky
[23:39] ---
    I want to believe,
    we aren't alone

[23:45] ---
    We understand each other
    (seek each other)

[23:48] ---
    That is our bond
[23:51] ---
    I won't let go (I can't let go)
[23:54] ---
    Destiny begins
[24:00] ---
    On the next Ga-Rei-Zero:
    "The Cause of the Duty."
