**[00:20] ---**
What a wonderful mansion this is!
**[00:24] ---**
My daughter will enter
the court as an imperial bride.
**[00:27] ---**
And I shall become the
father-in-law of the Heavenly Emperor.
**[00:30] ---**
Therefore, the house must be built accordingly.
**[00:32] ---**
If the Vice-Minister overhears,
you will gain more unnecessary resentment.
**[00:39] ---**
This is how I am at my most modest.
**[00:42] ---**
Please wait.
**[00:46] ---**
Haruaki*-sama*!
**[00:52] ---**
What business do you have, Haruaki?
**[00:55] ---**
I felt an alarming presence
**[00:58] ---**
so I dragged this aging body of mine to see you.
**[01:02] ---**
What are you saying?
**[01:04] ---**
Do you believe something sinister is here?
**[01:06] ---**
Yes.
**[01:12] ---**
Hey, look.
**[01:33] ---**
This is...
**[01:35] ---**
A curse.
**[01:37] ---**
Someone is cursing Michinaga*-dono*.
**[01:41] ---**
If the one who stood there was
not a dog, but Michinaga*-dono*...
**[02:01] ---**
*A seal guarded since ancient times*
**[02:10] ---**
*Now it falls and turns to thorns*
**[02:17] ---**
*Remnants of resentment brought to
life by the darkness of night take breath*
**[02:25] ---**
*What does that pyre desire
and why does it beckon*
**[02:35] ---**
*The flowers of darkness
that fear and hate the light*
**[02:43] ---**
*Rakshasa, who dances
wrapped in a cloak of blood*
**[02:51] ---**
*Release and call back the golden armor*
**[02:59] ---**
*The blade, which can cut
through inevitable destiny*
**[03:10] ---**
*Night of the crimson moon*
**[03:13] ---**
GARO: CRIMSON MOON
**[03:20] ---**
CURSE
**[03:35] ---**
Seimei! Hurry! Please hurry and remove the seal!
**[03:41] ---**
Seimei!
**[03:46] ---**
What are you doing so early in the morning?!
**[03:50] ---**
A dream?
**[03:51] ---**
Seimei, are you going to eat before you go?
**[03:53] ---**
What kind of sweets do you have?
**[03:55] ---**
Persimmons.
**[03:58] ---**
Seimei, please do something
about the seal on my armor.
**[04:02] ---**
Why? Did a horror appear?
**[04:06] ---**
I am going to cut my ties with you!
**[04:08] ---**
Such cold words.
**[04:10] ---**
When I picked you up, you didn't
even know what a Makai Knight was.
**[04:14] ---**
Though I taught you
everything there is to know...
**[04:19] ---**
Men are all the same.
**[04:21] ---**
Wha!
**[04:21] ---**
They take everything away from older women
**[04:25] ---**
and step over their body on the way out.
**[04:28] ---**
No, I didn't mean it that way.
**[04:31] ---**
Those are crocodile tears.
**[04:32] ---**
Huh?
**[04:34] ---**
Just a bit more and I might
actually produce some tears...
**[04:40] ---**
You're always like this.
**[04:42] ---**
Lies! Lies! Lies!
**[04:45] ---**
Because of you, I can no
longer trust the words of women.
**[04:49] ---**
Do you even know that many women?
**[04:52] ---**
This persimmon is sweet!
**[04:55] ---**
Let me go!
**[04:57] ---**
Oh, where are you going?
**[04:59] ---**
I'm going to go cool my head.
**[05:01] ---**
Huh?
**[05:02] ---**
The unlawful *onmyou* user, Seimei.
**[05:05] ---**
We are taking you into custody
for suspicion of cursing activity.
**[05:08] ---**
Huh? W-Wait a second!
**[05:09] ---**
Attack!
**[05:11] ---**
Wh-What are you doing?!
I'm changing right now!
**[05:14] ---**
Where are you touching?!
**[05:16] ---**
Pay up if you're going to touch!
**[05:18] ---**
Raikou*-sama*!
**[05:19] ---**
Did she do something bad enough to
be captured by the police magistrate?
**[05:24] ---**
That is what we are going to investigate.
**[05:26] ---**
She's good at lying, so don't be fooled.
**[05:28] ---**
Hey! Raikou!
**[05:30] ---**
You're going to abandon me?!
You ungrateful brat!
**[05:35] ---**
I assume you are familiar with
the name Fujiwarano Michinaga?
**[05:38] ---**
Someone placed curses on his family.
**[05:42] ---**
They found cursed items inside
the mansion, one after another.
**[05:46] ---**
Michinaga's daughter will soon
enter the court as an imperial bride.
**[05:49] ---**
If so, many would be envious of
the one who controls the Light Palace.
**[05:55] ---**
Unlawful *onmyou* users create curses
in exchange for money regularly.
**[06:03] ---**
That kind of activity is no longer forgivable.
**[06:06] ---**
Yes.
**[06:06] ---**
It has already been decided,
**[06:09] ---**
that *onmyou* users who've created
curses will be severely punished.
**[06:13] ---**
We will now sweep out all
the unlawful *onmyou* users.
**[06:17] ---**
And so, any *onmyouji* that
are not a part of the Onmyouryo
**[06:22] ---**
are to be inspected.
**[06:25] ---**
Um, Izumi Shikibu*-san*?
**[06:28] ---**
Izumi*-chan* is fine.
**[06:30] ---**
Seimei is a Makai Alchemist
and she's not one of the *onmyouji*
**[06:34] ---**
that protect the Light Palace from disasters.
**[06:38] ---**
Oh? You didn't know?
**[06:40] ---**
That child was born from an *onmyouji* family.
**[06:42] ---**
Huh?
**[06:43] ---**
She is the princess of the Abe family,
**[06:45] ---**
who surpasses even the *onmyou
*professor Kamono Yasunori.
**[06:50] ---**
I have no idea why she
became a Makai Alchemist,
**[06:53] ---**
but I am sure she'll be released quickly.
**[06:57] ---**
Shake?
**[06:58] ---**
Information fee.
**[07:04] ---**
The Light Palace.
**[07:06] ---**
A holy place that only nobles and
officials that run this country may enter...
**[07:11] ---**
Yes, they say that Horrors
cannot enter the palace.
**[07:15] ---**
Seimei was born from a place like that?
**[07:24] ---**
Michinaga wouldn't fear mere curses.
**[07:28] ---**
His true goal is you.
**[07:30] ---**
Then allow me to show him that there is no light
**[07:34] ---**
that can pierce true darkness.
**[07:36] ---**
Did you find him? After him!
**[07:38] ---**
Having the conceited Light Palace
open the gate would be interesting.
**[07:45] ---**
Are you Ashiya Douman?
**[07:48] ---**
It is as you say.
**[07:52] ---**
Hurry up and enter the cells,
you cheating *onmyouji*!
**[07:55] ---**
Come now! Walk faster!
**[07:57] ---**
Brother. Though Michinaga*-sama
*is powerful, he is still an official.
**[08:01] ---**
Making a prison in this mansion and
jailing whomever he desires is too much.
**[08:07] ---**
Our master is the head of the Fujiwara family.
**[08:10] ---**
No one may go against his decision.
**[08:13] ---**
So these are the scum
who sell curses for money.
**[08:22] ---**
That woman...
**[08:24] ---**
She was born of high status.
**[08:26] ---**
What a waste.
**[08:29] ---**
Please save me.
**[08:30] ---**
Hey! Get back in line!
**[08:31] ---**
This is some kind of mistake!
**[08:36] ---**
That Madou Ring is sealed
away along with your armor.
**[08:40] ---**
The only one who can
unseal it is that little lady.
**[08:43] ---**
Can't something be done?
**[08:45] ---**
Someone has cursed the Minister of the Left.
**[08:48] ---**
Oh, that has nothing to do with us.
**[08:51] ---**
Huh? Nothing to do with us?
**[08:53] ---**
Curses placed by humans
are mostly mere trickery.
**[08:58] ---**
If they believe themselves to be cursed,
they feel sick and get prone to disease.
**[09:03] ---**
If there are rumors of being hated,
**[09:06] ---**
social advancement slips through their fingers.
**[09:09] ---**
Makai Knights do not
interfere with the world of man.
**[09:13] ---**
I will call for you if another
troublesome Horror appears.
**[09:19] ---**
Makai Knights are protectors!
**[09:21] ---**
I will protect all people!
**[09:24] ---**
See you later, Raikou.
**[09:25] ---**
Good-bye.
**[09:35] ---**
Makai Knight armor uses the power of Makai.
**[09:39] ---**
If you wear it for too long,
**[09:41] ---**
you will be consumed by
the armor and turn into a beast.
**[09:45] ---**
A lost soul beast.
**[09:48] ---**
When I met Seimei, I had lost
my sanity while wearing the armor.
**[09:55] ---**
But, Raikou*-sama*, you weren't going berserk.
**[09:59] ---**
Though your form had changed,
your soul remained intact.
**[10:02] ---**
That is why Seimei...
**[10:04] ---**
She sealed away the armor, making me hers!
**[10:09] ---**
To protect Raikou*-sama*?
**[10:11] ---**
No, it can't be.
**[10:13] ---**
It can't be helped. Let's go.
**[10:15] ---**
To save Seimei?
**[10:17] ---**
Yes. What would happen if a
Horror were to appear right now?
**[10:59] ---**
That is...
**[11:05] ---**
So you are the new Ashiya Douman.
**[11:09] ---**
That is the name I have
received from my teacher.
**[11:12] ---**
So that man accepted you as his successor?
**[11:18] ---**
The various curses we found.
They were your doing, were they not?
**[11:23] ---**
I have no memory of them.
**[11:25] ---**
No, you made them.
**[11:28] ---**
And the one who commissioned you
was the Vice-Minister Korechika*-kyo*.
**[11:35] ---**
Korechika*-kyo* is Michinaga*-dono*'s
nephew, but he hungers for power.
**[11:40] ---**
That is why he had you create those curses.
**[11:44] ---**
If I confess such things in public,
**[11:47] ---**
Korechika and his bloodline will be executed.
**[11:51] ---**
Ashiya Douman.
**[11:53] ---**
Though he was once as
skilled as I as an *onmyouji,*
**[12:00] ---**
people grew to fear his mastery of curses.
**[12:05] ---**
There is no mistake.
The one who carries his name is the culprit.
**[12:11] ---**
You captured all the *omyou* users
in the capital just to find me.
**[12:16] ---**
Good work on that.
**[12:20] ---**
What is that terrible smell?
**[12:23] ---**
What is that smoke?
**[12:25] ---**
I-It stinks.
**[12:26] ---**
Hey, what the hell is this smell?
**[12:28] ---**
The stench is unbearable!
**[12:30] ---**
Shut up! Shut up!
**[12:31] ---**
Where is this smoke coming from?
**[12:40] ---**
Raikou, you're late!
**[12:43] ---**
This is pathetic.
A Makai Knight doing a prison break!
**[12:46] ---**
I'm the pathetic one!
**[12:49] ---**
This cow dung stinks!
**[12:56] ---**
You cannot pass! Unlawful
*onmyou* users, return to your cells!
**[13:00] ---**
That's impossible.
**[13:01] ---**
I already broke the prison
door and it really stinks here.
**[13:04] ---**
Are you a warrior?
**[13:06] ---**
I, Minamotono Yorinobu, will be the opponent
**[13:08] ---**
of all who go against Michinaga*-sama*!
**[13:11] ---**
Yorinobu?
**[13:12] ---**
Please save me, Yorinobu*-sama*!
**[13:15] ---**
This man suddenly attacked the jail!
**[13:17] ---**
What?!
**[13:18] ---**
I am sure he is aiming
for my body, Yorinobu*-sama*.
**[13:23] ---**
It is as you say...
**[13:24] ---**
What are you saying?
**[13:25] ---**
Hey, Seimei.
**[13:28] ---**
You face oozes with indecency.
**[13:32] ---**
I won't let you escape!
**[13:37] ---**
Seimei!
**[13:42] ---**
Douman! Michinaga!
**[13:44] ---**
Well, well.
**[13:46] ---**
So you were captured as well.
**[13:48] ---**
What are you doing here, Kiyome?!
**[13:51] ---**
Do not call me by that name, Abeno Haruaki.
**[13:55] ---**
It's a reunion between
grandfather and granddaughter.
**[13:58] ---**
There is no reason to fight.
**[14:01] ---**
What will you do with Ashiya Douman?
**[14:05] ---**
It has nothing to do with you!
**[14:07] ---**
This man placed the curses on me.
**[14:10] ---**
He just confessed who commissioned the curses.
**[14:14] ---**
Someone who inherited Ashiya Douman's name
**[14:16] ---**
would do something that stupid?
**[14:18] ---**
Do you really think I would?
**[14:25] ---**
Douman!
**[14:36] ---**
Huh?
**[14:39] ---**
Seimei, isn't that the one named Douman?
**[14:46] ---**
Darkness.
**[14:48] ---**
This is the gate of
darkness that I searched for!
**[14:53] ---**
Darkness, huh?
**[14:54] ---**
Listen.
**[14:56] ---**
These cursed items are things
that Michinaga commissioned.
**[15:00] ---**
Such nonsense!
**[15:01] ---**
Those are curses against
the Minister of the Left!
**[15:05] ---**
I saw a dog die in his place with my own eyes!
**[15:08] ---**
He set poison in the garden ahead of time.
**[15:11] ---**
He pretended to be cursed,
**[15:14] ---**
in order to blame and execute
the Vice-Minister and his family.
**[15:19] ---**
That was his goal.
**[15:21] ---**
These pieces of junk contain no power.
**[15:25] ---**
However, these items are imbued with negativity.
**[15:30] ---**
The ambition to destroy his political enemies.
**[15:33] ---**
The cruelty to stop at nothing for that sake.
**[15:36] ---**
And the desire to stand
at the top of this world.
**[15:41] ---**
That negativity will open this gate!
**[15:43] ---**
What?!
**[15:45] ---**
A gate that connects Makai and this world.
**[15:47] ---**
Horrors use those gates to appear in our world.
**[15:51] ---**
I am one who opens such gates.
**[15:57] ---**
I see. You let yourself be
captured for this purpose, Douman!
**[16:04] ---**
Horrors, follow the path of resentment
and come to consume humans!
**[16:42] ---**
Evil spirits!
**[16:43] ---**
Those are Horrors, creatures from the darkness.
**[16:47] ---**
I see.
**[16:48] ---**
The *onmyouji* believe they protect
the area around the Light Palace,
**[16:54] ---**
but gates can be opened anywhere.
**[16:57] ---**
Stop, Raikou. We're vastly outnumbered.
**[17:00] ---**
We need to focus on catching Douman.
**[17:02] ---**
I want to protect the people!
**[17:40] ---**
S-Seimei, hurry and release
the seal on Raikou*-sama*.
**[17:47] ---**
Seimei!
**[17:55] ---**
Shine light upon Raikou!
**[18:12] ---**
Golden armor?
**[19:12] ---**
Raikou, you know that there
will never be an end to Horrors.
**[19:17] ---**
I am a Makai Knight.
**[19:21] ---**
I will destroy all Horrors.
**[19:27] ---**
If you can't stand that,
release me from this cursed seal!
**[20:03] ---**
He did it!
**[20:30] ---**
I will overlook the fact you
destroyed the prison today.
**[20:35] ---**
Yes, and I'll overlook the fact
that your fake curse incident
**[20:39] ---**
involved me and many innocent people.
**[20:43] ---**
Oh, this.
**[20:45] ---**
Hold on to that.
**[20:47] ---**
I couldn't do anything for you
when you left the house so young.
**[20:54] ---**
So, at the very least...
**[20:57] ---**
You may have become a Makai Alchemist,
**[21:00] ---**
but never forget you are from
the Abe family of *onmyouji*, Kiyome.
**[21:10] ---**
Kiyome, huh?
**[21:11] ---**
Don't call me by that name.
**[21:14] ---**
Why did you leave the Abe family?
**[21:17] ---**
Various things were really stifling.
**[21:20] ---**
You're lying.
**[21:22] ---**
You really don't understand women, do you?
**[21:26] ---**
Stupid! Quit it!
**[21:27] ---**
More importantly, please remove
the seal you placed on me!
**[21:30] ---**
No way.
**[21:31] ---**
So instead, I will never
disappear from your side.
**[21:44] ---**
Stay away, Yorimitsu!
**[21:50] ---**
How are you doing, Father?
**[22:02] ---**
Yorinobu.
**[22:06] ---**
It's nothing. Just a dream.
**[22:12] ---**
Father.
**[22:15] ---**
The Golden Armor should be something
passed down the Minamoto family.
**[22:21] ---**
Why does a man like that possess it?
**[22:26] ---**
Father!
**[22:42] ---**
*Illusions of darkness
reflect where there is light*

*The way of the current world is so fleeting*
**[22:56] ---**
*The fluttering butterfly that
is drowning within your dreams*
**[23:03] ---**
*Will only disappear if you
reach out gently to touch it*

Next Episode: KAGUYA
**[24:03] ---**
Long, long ago.
**[24:04] ---**
There was a man called Taketorino Okina...
**[24:08] ---**
No. No. This isn't such a story.
**[24:11] ---**
