**[01:00] Tatsuo**
Good morning, Gintaro-sama, Haru-sama.
**[01:08] Tatsuo**
Yes, good morning.
**[01:10] Tatsuo**
Wait one moment.
**[01:15] Tatsuo**
Here you go.
**[01:22] A**
Good morning.
**[01:25] Tatsuo**
Good morning. You're here early.
**[01:28] A**
I have an easier time getting
out of bed when it's warmer.
**[01:31] Tatsuo**
It's already June.
**[01:34] A**
Ah, are those summer tangerines?
**[01:37] Tatsuo**
Yes.
**[01:38] A**
Why don't you leave them inside?
**[01:41] Tatsuo**
The offerings inside are for the gods.
**[01:43] Tatsuo**
Our fox spirits like their
offerings out here.
**[01:45] A**
Oh? It sounds like you heard
from the herald himself.
**[01:50] A**
When I was little, my great-grandfather
used to say that
**[01:55] ---**
there were fox spirits dancing on
the roof of the Inari shrine nearby.
**[01:59] A**
You also have fox spirits here?
**[02:02] Dad**
We do.
**[02:04] A**
Yes, of course.
***SIGN*** I'm Sorry
**[03:53] Mako**
Satoru-kun, I can take it from here.
**[03:55] Mako**
You're gonna be late for practice.
**[03:57] Sato**
Okay.
**[04:00] Haru**
Satoru, it's going to rain today.
**[04:04] Sato**
Really?
**[04:06] Haru**
It'll just be a drizzle.
**[04:07] Haru**
You probably won't need an umbrella.
**[04:09] Sato**
I'll take one to be safe.
**[04:11] Mako**
No way. The forecast said
it would be sunny today.
**[04:15] Haru**
Heh, forecast?
**[04:20] Mako**
I guess I should take an umbrella, too.
**[04:22] Haru**
You can get wet.
**[04:24] Mako**
Haru-chan's so cold to me...
**[04:26] Haru**
Anyway...
**[04:29] Haru**
Why do they always offer tangerines?
**[04:33] Haru**
That's so weird!
**[04:41] Gin**
Hey!
**[04:42] Gin**
Tangerines are hard to find this
time of year, stupid brat!
**[04:46] Haru**
It's weird for foxes to eat tangerines.
**[04:49] Mako**
Gin, don't throw a fit over a tangerine.
**[04:52] Sato**
Come on, Haru.
**[04:54] Sato**
You're not supposed to waste food.
**[04:56] Haru**
Not my fault...
**[04:57] Gin**
In that case...
**[04:59] Gin**
What do you like?
**[05:01] Haru**
W-Well, I like fried tofu!
**[05:06] Gin**
You're just eating whatever
they put before you.
**[05:10] Gin**
I bet you've never tried
anything else before.
**[05:12] Haru**
That's not true!
**[05:14] Mako**
Now, now.
**[05:15] Mako**
Oh, I've heard that
foxes like blue cheese.
**[05:20] Mako**
There was a special on TV.
**[05:22] Mako**
Would you like to try some?
**[05:23] Haru**
Cheese?
**[05:25] Satoru**
That was a special on
foxes in the wild.
**[05:30] Satoru**
Don't feed Haru anything strange.
**[05:33] Haru**
Have fun, Satoru!
**[05:38] Haru**
This one's big.
**[05:41] Mako**
Oh, that's a summer tangerine.
**[05:42] Mako**
Dad never learns.
**[05:44] Gin**
I don't mind it when Tatsuo does it.
**[05:47] Mako**
What? You're really soft on Dad.
**[05:51] Mako**
You always complain
when I give you stuff.
**[05:54] Gin**
Tatsuo is allowed to get away with it.
**[05:56] Tatsuo**
Makoto! You need to get ready
to go or you'll be late!
**[06:01] Mako**
Okay!
**[06:03] Mako**
Dad, Haru-chan likes your
standard fried tofu.
**[06:07] Tatsu**
Oh, really?
**[06:08] Gin**
Standard.
**[06:09] Tatsuo**
You should have said something sooner.
**[06:12] Mako**
I'm off!
**[06:14] Tatsuo**
Be careful.
**[06:27] Haru**
I guess it's gonna rain no
matter how many times I try.
**[06:30] Gin**
That's a tiny flame.
**[06:32] Haru**
Why do you have to be so annoying?
**[06:34] Haru**
I can make bigger flames.
**[06:37] Gin**
A bigger flame will
bring different things.
**[06:40] Haru**
What about you?
**[06:48] Gin**
First of all, you're not
holding your hand right.
**[06:52] Gin**
Want me to teach you what to do?
**[06:54] Haru**
I don't need your help!
**[06:56] Haru**
I'm not going to tell fortunes
to suck up to humans.
**[07:01] Haru**
Besides, you have a giant body and tail.
**[07:05] Haru**
A big flame is nothing special.
**[07:08] Haru**
You need to grow up and act your age.
**[07:12] Haru**
Seriously...
**[07:13] Haru**
A big body with a small heart.
**[07:17] Gin**
Yeah, that's right.
**[07:22] Gin**
It was all my fault.
**[07:24] Gin**
All my fault.
**[07:26] Haru**
Hey! Come down!
**[07:31] Gin**
Go to sleep already.
**[07:32] Haru**
I'm not tired!
**[07:34] Haru**
You're running away because
you can't beat me!
**[07:43] Tatsuo**
Gintaro-sama, Haru-sama.
**[07:45] Tatsuo**
I'll be heading out for a bit.
**[07:47] Tatsuo**
Please watch over the shrine for us.
**[07:56] Haru**
Tatsuo...
**[08:12] Haru**
*It's so quiet.*
**[08:19] Haru**
*That cloud looks like Grandpa Matsu!*
**[08:24] Haru**
*That one looks like Satoru!*
**[08:28] Haru**
*That stupidly large one is Gintaro.*
**[08:35] Haru**
But seriously, I don't get how
he can sleep so much everyday.
**[08:58] Aki**
I'm—
**[09:00] Sachi**
Wait!
**[09:01] Aki**
Hurry up!
**[09:03] Sachi**
Wait for me!
**[09:07] Haru**
More noisy humans...
**[09:12] Aki**
It's ringing!
**[09:18] Sachi**
*I want to sit next to Taiga-kun.*
**[09:22] Aki**
* I want to be in the same*
* group as Taiga-kun.*
**[09:26] Aki**
Sa-chan, what did you wish for?
**[09:30] Sachi**
It's a secret.
**[09:31] Aki**
Why?!
**[09:31] Haru**
Kids these days...
**[09:34] Aki**
Come on! Tell me!
**[09:36] Sachi**
You go first!
**[09:37] Aki**
It's embarrassing!
**[09:39] Sachi**
What do you mean?
**[09:40] Haru**
Jeez! Keep it down!
**[09:42] Aki**
Oh, we need to wash our hands.
**[09:44] Sachi**
Yep, that's right!
**[09:46] Haru**
It's too late!
**[09:49] Yuu**
Hey, Aki! Sachina!
**[09:52] Yuu**
What are you doing here?
**[09:55] A**
We're gonna tell the teacher on you!
**[09:56] Aki**
Yuuya!
**[09:58] Haru**
More noisemakers...
**[10:00] Aki**
We aren't doing anything wrong.
**[10:02] Aki**
We live nearby.
**[10:03] Yuu**
But you're supposed
to go straight home!
**[10:06] Aki**
You're the one who's always
following us around!
**[10:08] Aki**
You probably like Sa-chan!
**[10:10] Sachi**
What?
**[10:11] Aki**
They call people like you "stalkers."
**[10:14] Yuu**
What?! That's not true!
**[10:16] A**
Uh, Yuu-chan?
**[10:18] B**
Is that true?
**[10:19] Yuu**
It's not!
**[10:21] Aki**
It is!
**[10:24] Yuu**
Why you...
**[10:25] Yuu**
Shut up, stupid Aki!
**[10:31] Aki**
Stop it!
**[10:32] Yuu**
Shut up, ugly!
**[10:35] Aki**
Hey!
**[10:36] Aki**
Stop it!
**[10:37] Aki**
That's cold!
**[10:39] Haru**
Th-These kids make me so mad!
**[10:44] Aki**
I'm mad now!
**[10:46] Haru**
Yeah! Make them pay!
**[10:49] Aki**
Stupid Yuuya!
**[10:53] Haru**
Yes! Way to go!
**[10:55] Haru**
That's the spirit!
**[10:55] Haru**
One more time!
**[10:57] Haru**
Don't let that boy beat you!
**[10:58] Yuu**
You're gonna get it!
**[10:59] Aki**
You started it!
**[10:59] Haru**
Make them pay in spades! Keep it up!
**[11:02] Haru**
Yeah, like that!
**[11:05] ---**
There!
**[11:06] ---**
Take that!
**[11:07] ---**
Darn it!
**[11:11] Haru**
Don't let those boys win!
**[11:15] Haru**
Wait a second....
**[11:19] Haru**
How can he sleep through all of this?
**[11:24] Haru**
Hey! Stop it!
**[11:26] A**
Get 'em, Yuu-chan!
**[11:28] A**
Don't let them beat you!
**[11:29] A**
Do it!
**[11:31] Haru**
Get down from there!
**[11:33] Yuu**
Take this!
**[11:34] Yuu**
Dual wield!
**[11:46] A**
Ow...
**[11:56] Yuu**
Uh-oh...
**[12:00] Yuu**
Not my fault!
**[12:02] Both**
Wait up!
**[12:05] Sachi**
A-Aki-chan...
**[12:06] Aki**
What do we do?
**[12:10] Both**
We're sorry!
**[12:11] Haru**
What?!
**[12:13] Haru**
Hold it right there!
**[12:35] Haru**
Wait...
***SIGN*** Silver Fox
**[13:14] A**
John! Why are you barking again?!
**[13:16] A**
There's nothing there!
**[13:24] Haru**
That scared me!
**[13:30] Haru**
Huh?
**[13:41] Haru**
Where am I...
**[14:16] Haru**
I'm lost...
**[14:19] Haru**
And I'm supposed to be a herald...
**[14:21] Haru**
Satoru will be worried
when he gets home...
**[14:25] Haru**
I probably won't be able to divine
the location of the shrine...
**[14:31] Haru**
Satoru...
**[14:34] Haru**
I just noticed that this
is an Inari shrine.
**[14:38] Haru**
Do I spend the night here...
**[14:48] Gin**
Stupid.
**[14:51] Gin**
What are you doing?
**[14:56] Haru**
O-Oh, it's just Gintaro.
**[15:00] Gin**
That's not very nice.
**[15:02] Gin**
I came down here to get you.
**[15:04] Haru**
Weren't you asleep?!
**[15:07] Gin**
It's not possible to sleep
through that noise.
**[15:10] Gin**
And you were the loudest one.
**[15:15] Gin**
Man, don't wander around if you
don't know how to get home.
**[15:20] Haru**
I never asked you to come look for me!
**[15:25] Gin**
Come on now...
**[15:26] Gin**
I didn't have to look for you.
**[15:28] Gin**
The shrine's right over there.
**[15:30] Gin**
You must be blind.
**[15:39] Haru**
Then leave me alone!
**[15:41] Gin**
I wish I could, but I can't.
**[15:43] Gin**
If I don't do something,
it'll only be worse later on.
**[15:49] Mako**
Why didn't you do something?!
**[15:52] Sato**
Ha-Haru ran away again?
**[15:59] Gin**
Come on. Let's go.
**[16:08] Mako**
What are you doing here?
**[16:10] Gin**
Yo.
**[16:12] Mako**
Oh, that must have been awful.
**[16:16] Haru**
I'm gonna make them pay!
**[16:18] Mako**
Well, they're just kids...
**[16:21] Mako**
Oh, I'm glad it didn't rain.
**[16:24] Mako**
I ran back in a hurry.
**[16:28] Haru**
That's weird...
**[16:32] Haru**
Hey, it's them!
**[16:34] Mako**
What's going on, Dad?
**[16:36] Tatsuo**
Oh. Welcome home, Makoto.
**[16:40] Sachi**
Makoto-oneechan...
**[16:48] All**
We're sorry!
**[16:52] Yuu**
We're the ones who broke the dippers.
**[16:56] A**
And we also messed up the fox statue.
**[16:59] Aki**
Sorry, we did something wrong...
**[17:02] Sachi**
But then we ran away...
**[17:04] Yuu**
We won't do it again...
**[17:06] Yuu**
So...
**[17:08] All**
Please don't curse us!
**[17:09] Tatsuo**
What?
**[17:11] Yuu**
Th-That's what Grandma said.
**[17:15] (Flashback) G**
You've angered the gods!
**[17:17] (Flashback) G**
If you fool around in the shrine,
the fox spirits will eat you!
**[17:23] Yuu**
Right?
**[17:29] Tatsuo**
It's okay.
**[17:31] Tatsuo**
The fox spirits won't eat you.
**[17:33] Yuu**
Really?
**[17:34] Tatsuo**
Yes.
**[17:36] Tatsuo**
You shouldn't have broken the dippers,
**[17:40] Tatsuo**
but what's important is that
**[17:41] ---**
you understand what you've
done wrong and apologized.
**[17:45] Tatsuo**
I'm sure the fox spirits
will forgive you.
**[17:49] Tatsuo**
Besides, the fox spirits will be
lonely if you don't come to visit.
**[17:55] Tatsuo**
So please drop by when you have time.
**[17:58] Aki**
I'm so relieved.
**[17:59] Sachi**
Uh-huh.
**[18:02] Haru**
Tatsuo's too soft.
**[18:05] Mako**
Now, now.
**[18:08] Yuu**
Uh, here.
**[18:11] Yuu**
We used our allowance to buy these.
**[18:13] Yuu**
Grandma told us that the fox
spirit here likes them.
**[18:17] Sachi**
They didn't have any tangerines,
so we bought oranges.
**[18:23] Tatsuo**
Thank you!
**[18:24] Tatsuo**
I'm sure the fox spirits will be happy.
**[18:32] Haru**
Forget it.
**[18:34] Haru**
They apologized, so I'll forgive them.
**[18:36] Haru**
Too bad that I hate tangerines!
**[18:42] Mako**
Rain?
**[18:43] Tatsuo**
Oh? But it's so bright.
**[18:50] Aki**
It's a fox wedding.
**[18:52] Sachi**
Hey, why are sun showers
called fox weddings?
**[18:57] Tatsuo**
Well...
**[19:00] Tatsuo**
I've heard that foxes
are having a wedding,
**[19:03] ---**
when it rains while the sun is out...
**[19:05] Tatsuo**
Or that foxes are responsible
for making it rain,
**[19:09] Tatsuo**
but I don't know the real reason.
**[19:12] Tatsuo**
It's a good question.
**[19:15] Yuu**
That's weird.
**[19:16] Gin**
Yeah, it's just something
that's been passed down.
**[19:20] Haru**
Humans shouldn't blame
foxes for everything.
**[19:25] Yuu**
Let's play in the rain
before we go home!
**[19:28] Yuu**
Come on!
**[19:29] A**
Yeah!
**[19:30] Mako**
Make sure you don't get sick.
**[19:33] Aki**
Uh-huh!
**[19:34] Sachi**
Bye-bye, Makoto-oneechan!
**[19:37] Mako**
A fox wedding, huh...
**[19:40] Mako**
Oh, why don't you ask
Haru-chan to be your bride?
**[19:46] Mako**
Since Haru-chan's a girl.
**[19:48] Haru**
Why?!
**[19:49] Haru**
I don't like anything about Gintaro!
**[19:52] Gin**
And I want nothing to do
with this noisy brat.
**[19:56] Aki**
Oh, welcome back!
**[19:58] Sachi**
Welcome back.
**[20:00] Haru**
Oh, Satoru!
**[20:04] Sato**
I'm home, Haru.
**[20:05] Haru**
You're back early!
**[20:07] Sato**
Yeah, we got out of practice early.
**[20:10] Haru**
Satoru, you're wet! Why?
**[20:12] Haru**
Didn't you take an umbrella?
**[20:14] Sato**
Oh, it was a short run.
**[20:17] Sato**
And it was a fox wedding,
**[20:20] Sato**
so I didn't mind getting wet.
**[20:24] Sato**
Since it's like you
were making it rain.
**[20:27] Haru**
Jeez... You'll catch a cold...
**[20:30] Mako**
At least everything worked out.
**[20:32] Mako**
Here are your oranges, Gin.
**[20:34] Gin**
Oranges?
**[20:35] Mako**
They're similar to tangerines.
**[20:37] Tatsuo**
Oh, the rain's stopped.
**[20:40] Mako**
Hey, what are you holding, Dad?
**[20:43] Tatsuo**
Oh, this?
**[20:45] Tatsuo**
It's a present for Haru-sama.
**[20:48] Tatsuo**
You said that she likes fried tofu,
**[20:50] Tatsuo**
but I was thinking that it would
be better with some udon.
**[20:54] Tatsuo**
I'm a big fan.
**[20:57] Tatsuo**
Oh... should I have brought
some hot water after all?
**[21:03] Mako**
Come on, Dad!
**[21:05] Haru**
Are you okay?
**[21:08] Sato**
Haru, stop being so stubborn.
**[21:11] Sato**
You like cream buns, right?
**[21:16] Haru**
Satoru! Don't tell them!
**[21:19] Mako**
What? Cream buns?
**[21:21] Sato**
Yeah, someone made an
offering of them once.
**[21:26] Mako**
Oh...
**[21:27] Gin**
Hey, and you were making fun of me?
**[21:31] Mako**
I like cream buns, too.
**[21:34] Mako**
They're really good.
**[21:35] Gin**
You're just as weird as I am.
**[21:45] Haru**
Take that!
**[21:47] Gin**
Ow!
**[21:49] Haru**
Turn orange, Gintaro!
**[21:57] Gin**
I told you to stop wasting the tangerines!
**[22:00] Haru**
Shut up!
**[22:06] Sato**
A rainbow...
**[22:15] Tatsuo**
That's lovely.
**[22:18] Gin**
The sky is the one thing
that never changes...
**[22:24] Tatsuo**
Oh, what were you saying
about cream buns?
**[22:28] Sato**
Haru likes them.
**[22:30] Tatsuo**
Really?
**[22:31] Haru**
I think it's very cute, Haru-chan.
**[22:36] Haru**
Shut up!
