[00:30] Hayato
    Hyoma...
[00:44] Hayato
    Run, Hyoma!
[00:46] Hayato
    He's...
[01:14] Hayato
    R-Run!
[01:20] Kusui
    Hi-kun!
[01:30] Hyoma
    Big Sister! Big Brother!
[01:53] Zohei
    "Marebito."
[01:55] Zohei
    A name given to entities from the land of the
    dead—a foreign realm where souls run rampant—
[01:59] Zohei
    which find their way
    to the land of the living.
[02:12] Zohei
    Though fundamentally spiritual beings,
[02:15] Zohei
    they're capable of possessing old inanimate
    objects to manifest a physical form.
[02:21] Zohei
    And in this form, they are known by
    a more familiar name in Japan—
SIGN    Tsukumogami
SIGN    An inanimate object that
     develops a spirit of its own
[02:28] Zohei
    "Tsukumogami."
[02:31] Old Coin B
    Saenome...
[02:34] Hyoma
    Correct.
[02:36] Hyoma
    Enforcer of House Kunato,
    one of the three Saenome Houses...
[02:40] Hyoma
    Kunato Hyoma.
SIGN    Malevolent Spirits
SIGN    Hyoma
[04:24] Zohei
    I see.
[04:26] Zohei
    You ended up in our world by chance,
[04:29] Zohei
    possessed this old coin,
[04:31] Zohei
    and got yourself a physical body.
[04:33] Zohei
    That must have been very confusing for you.
[04:36] Police B
    It sounds like he's just
    hearing his life story.
[04:41] Police A
    Just keep watching.
[04:42] Police A
    He's protecting law and order in our city
[04:45] Police A
    from these things that defy
    our ideas about what is normal.
[04:53] Zohei
    I can take custody of your spirit a while,
SIGN    Kunato
[04:56] Zohei
    then return you to the world you came from.
[05:00] Zohei
    If that sounds acceptable,
    could you come down to my level?
SIGN    Kunato
[05:29] Zohei
    The possessing spirit
    is sealed in the vessel.
[05:32] Zohei
    I'll hold a memorial for it later,
    and that should be that.
[05:37] Police A
    Bravo!
[05:40] Zohei
    Possessions like that of the old coin
    you witnessed, rookie,
[05:44] Zohei
    are typically kept hidden
    from the general population,
[05:46] Zohei
    but it's been happening
    in the shadows for ages.
[05:49] Police B
    Uh-huh...
[05:53] Zohei
    Sounds like we've got a skeptic.
[05:55] Police A
    Kunato-san is part of a clan that's been
[05:57] Police A
    entrusted to deal with tsukumogami
    by the government for generations.
SIGN    Department of Exorcisms
     Marebito Management Office
    
     "Saenome"
    
     7th Head
    
     Kunato Zohei
[06:01] Police A
    They're called the Saenome.
[06:04] Police B
    Saenome?
[06:07] Zohei
    Looking forward to working with you, rookie.
[06:09] Police A
    Well, you'll get used to it in time.
[06:12] Police B
    Right...
[06:13] Police A
    Oh, Kunato-san.
[06:15] Police A
    How's your grandson?
[06:17] Police A
    He went after the other.
    You don't think he was attacked?
[06:21] Zohei
    Oh, no! He's quite the professional, too!
[06:23] Zohei
    Besides, we talk these
    things out when we can.
[06:26] Zohei
    It's best to talk things out
    and reach a peaceful resolution!
[06:29] Zohei
    Professionalism means resolving things
    with as little conflict as possible!
SIGN    Kunato
SIGN    Kunato
[07:09] Police B
    Talking things... out?
[07:11] Police A
    Would you call that... a peaceful resolution?
[07:14] Zohei
    I guess that was talking...
    in the language of battle.
[07:18] Zohei
    Don't hesitate to contact us if
    any more tsukumogami appear.
[07:22] Zohei
    Honestly...
[07:26] Zohei
    Hello?
[07:28] Zohei
    It's me, Zohei.
[07:31] Zohei
    Sorry for the short notice,
[07:34] Zohei
    but I need to talk to you about my grandson.
[07:37] Zohei
    I thought it might help him if he
    could stay with you for a while.
[07:42] Zohei
    Mind having a look at him?
[07:48] Hyoma
    The target hadn't been
    a tsukumogami for long.
[07:51] Hyoma
    If it didn't know how to take
    a proper human form,
[07:53] Hyoma
    it wouldn't know how to use that form well.
[07:56] Hyoma
    That also meant it might
    not know its own strength.
[08:00] Hyoma
    I therefore judged it best to strike quickly
    and seal it, to prevent potential damage.
[08:06] Hyoma
    My actions might have been violent,
    but that comes with the Saenome territory.
[08:12] Hyoma
    As future head of the Kunato Family,
    I did the right thing.
[08:16] Zohei
    All wrong!
[08:19] Zohei
    Why do you always get ahead
    of yourself, you little punk?
[08:24] Hyoma
    May I ask what you mean?
[08:31] Zohei
    It's what I'm always telling you.
[08:33] Zohei
    Using force has to be our last resort.
[08:36] Zohei
    Marebito have basically been
    dragged here against their will.
[08:41] Zohei
    They start out disoriented.
[08:43] Zohei
    Even after becoming tsukumogami,
    they all act in different ways.
[08:48] Zohei
    I agree there are some troublemakers,
[08:51] Zohei
    but some just want to go home,
    and others want to blend in here.
[09:00] Zohei
    The job of the Saenome is to
    hear them out and guide them.
[09:06] Zohei
    But when I see you...
[09:12] Zohei
    Every single time you find your target,
    you attack them, no questions asked,
[09:15] Zohei
    and seal them against their will!
[09:18] Zohei
    You cause unnecessary conflict!
[09:22] Hyoma
    I can brush that off easily.
[09:25] Zohei
    That's not the solution!
[09:31] Hyoma
    I believe I'm doing the right thing.
[09:35] Hyoma
    These creatures can turn
    on you without warning.
[09:40] Hyoma
    Reaching out to them carelessly
    can bring fatal consequences.
[09:43] Hyoma
    I saw it once with my own eyes.
[09:52] Zohei
    Hyoma.
[09:53] Zohei
    You still haven't shaken off
    your hatred of tsukumogami?
[09:58] Hyoma
    No.
[10:03] Zohei
    You certainly made that crystal clear.
[10:06] Zohei
    You're too preoccupied with the past.
[10:09] Zohei
    Listen to me, Hyoma.
[10:11] Zohei
    I thought you were strong
    enough to grow past that.
[10:16] Zohei
    Because, as my grandson,
    you're my pride and joy.
[10:22] Zohei
    But you just never seem to listen!
[10:25] Zohei
    So I'll have to resort to drastic measures.
[10:28] Hyoma
    Huh?
[10:32] Zohei
    Yes, sorry to call again.
[10:35] Zohei
    I'd like to go with what
    we discussed after all.
[10:39] Zohei
    Sorry for all the trouble.
[10:41] Zohei
    I'll owe you one.
[10:43] Zohei
    All right, Hyoma-san.
[10:46] Zohei
    Are you aware of the existence
    of "special exceptions"?
[10:48] Hyoma
    Yes.
[10:49] Hyoma
    Tsukumogami allowed a measure of freedom
[10:52] Hyoma
    in exchange for conditions we assign them.
[10:55] Hyoma
    Though I've never met one personally.
[10:58] Zohei
    Correct.
[11:00] Zohei
    The truth is, I happen to know one—
    the person I was just talking to.
[11:08] Zohei
    Actually, more than one...
[11:09] Zohei
    It's a whole group of tsukumogami,
    living as a family.
[11:13] Zohei
    And...
[11:15] Zohei
    Serving a particular human master, at that.
[11:19] Hyoma
    Humans and tsukumogami, living together?
[11:21] Hyoma
    Is that possible?
[11:23] Zohei
    Yes.
[11:24] Zohei
    And Hyoma, regarding the
    drastic measures I mentioned...
[11:29] Zohei
    In two days, under the pretense
    of monitoring them,
[11:32] Zohei
    I'll be having you stay there for a while.
[11:37] Hyoma
    Wait—
[11:37] Zohei
    Denied.
[11:39] Zohei
    I told you these were drastic measures.
[11:41] Zohei
    Because...
[11:44] Zohei
    If you don't change, the only way
    this ends is with your self-destruction!
[11:47] Zohei
    If you refuse my offer, you'll be stripped
    of your Saenome qualifications!
[11:50] Zohei
    If you don't want that,
    you'd better start packing!
[12:00] Zohei
    Why is this happening to me?
[12:03] Zohei
    It would be one thing if all tsukumogami
    were willing to talk things out,
[12:08] Zohei
    but as long as there's even a
    chance of violent retaliation...
[12:13] Zohei
    We need to deal with them
    before they can hurt anyone.
[12:16] Zohei
    Isn't that the wisest course of action?
[12:27] Zohei
    I'll take this along.
[12:31] Hayato
    Hyoma!
[12:32] Kusui
    Hi-kun!
[12:53] (Flashback) Zohei
    The head of your host family,
    the Nagatsuki Family, is named Botan.
[12:58] (Flashback) Zohei
    She'll be about your age.
[13:01] (Flashback) Hyoma
    Nagatsuki Botan?
[13:03] (Flashback) Zohei
    Hyoma, I think interacting with them
    day-to-day will be good for you.
[13:09] (Flashback) Zohei
    It's very rare to find tsukumogami who
    coexist with humans for an extended period.
[13:14] (Flashback) Zohei
    I want you to find what's at
    the heart of that relationship,
[13:16] (Flashback) Zohei
    and see, for the first time,
    the nature of tsukumogami.
[13:24] Hyoma
    All right. Let's try it.
[13:30] Top Tsukumogami
    Why...
[13:31] Top Tsukumogami
    Why are you hunting your fellow tsukumogami?
SIGN    Proxy
[13:38] Yu
    Why?
[13:49] Suzuri
    Because that's what we do.
[13:51] Suzuri
    Might be time to head back.
[13:53] Yu
    Understood.
[13:58] Nagi
    Oh, crap.
[13:59] Nagi
    I forgot the freeloader was coming today.
[14:01] Nagi
    Who's at the house now?
[14:03] Kagami
    Um... Haori and Kushige?
[14:07] Nagi
    So, just the shifty-looking weirdos?!
[14:19] Haori
    Would you be the Kunato Hyoma-san
    whom we were told would be coming?
[14:22] Haori
    I am watching the house
    while my mistress is away.
[14:25] Haori
    My name is Haori.
SIGN    — Haori —
[14:28] Haori
    This is Kushige.
SIGN    — Haori —
SIGN    — Kushige —
[14:31] Hyoma
    A pair of tsukumogami...
[14:33] Hyoma
    They look shifty.
[14:38] Hyoma
    Is Nagatsuki Botan not present?
[14:40] Teacher
    All right, let's end it here.
[14:43] Kei
    What is it, Bon-chan?
[14:44] Teacher
    We'll do the next chapter next week,
    so make sure it's fresh in your mind by then.
[14:44] Botan
    I totally spaced out on something.
[14:47] Botan
    Maybe I'll ditch third period today.
[14:48] Teacher
    And don't forget to turn in your report.
[14:51] Haori
    Our mistress is a student,
    and currently away.
[14:56] Hyoma
    I see.
[14:57] Haori
    However...
[14:59] Haori
    Excellent timing.
[15:01] Haori
    Everyone else has now arrived.
[15:22] Kagami
    I'm really sorry we're late, Haori-chan.
SIGN    — Kagami —
[15:25] Suzuri
    Well... it seems like he only
    just showed up, though.
SIGN    — Suzuri —
[15:30] Yu
    And Botan is at college as usual.
SIGN    — Yu —
[15:34] Nagi
    So this is the Kunato problem child, eh?
SIGN    — Nagi —
[15:39] Haori
    Now, now, Nagi.
[15:41] Haori
    Let's not be rude.
[15:43] Haori
    As you can see, this is House Nagatsuki,
[15:46] Haori
    consisting of six tsukumogami
    and our mistress, Botan.
[15:50] Haori
    Many things about it may be foreign to you,
    but you are welcome here.
[15:57] Hyoma
    Let me make myself clear:
[16:00] Hyoma
    I despise tsukumogami.
[16:06] Hyoma
    Inhuman things taking human form,
[16:08] Hyoma
    using your deceptions to get close to us...
[16:11] Hyoma
    You can't be trusted.
[16:18] Suzuri
    B-But the point of this is
    to work together, right?
[16:22] Hyoma
    I'll just be observing you from a distance.
[16:25] Hyoma
    So I don't need any sort of welcome from you.
[16:29] Nagi
    Listen to this nerd!
[16:33] Nagi
    You think we give a damn about that?
[16:35] Nagi
    Give us a break.
[16:37] Nagi
    Or are you just venting on us
    because you're stressed?
[16:41] Hyoma
    I'm more suspicious that you're using
    this Botan person for your own ends.
[16:51] Nagi
    Take that back.
[16:54] Hyoma
    Not a chance.
[17:03] Hyoma
    I thought so. An experienced combatant.
[17:05] Nagi
    I'm not taking this kid's crap!
[17:08] Nagi
    You guys stay outta this!
[17:10] Yu/Suzuri/Kagami
    Okay...
[17:13] Haori
    You're allowing it?
[17:15] Haori
    Well, it's just a minor quarrel.
[17:18] Haori
    He's a good boy.
[17:20] Haori
    He came clean instantly, after all.
[17:25] Nagi
    Don't worry, I won't kill ya.
[17:36] Nagi
    But a whack from the flat
    of a sword still hurts!
[17:40] Hyoma
    Swords?
[17:42] Hyoma
    The ability to change form
    based on the possessed vessel...
[17:45] Hyoma
    That's the unique power of the tsukumogami.
[17:49] Hyoma
    When used to attack, it can be
    extremely dangerous to humans.
[17:54] Nagi
    Time to cry!
[17:59] Hyoma
    Troublesome.
[18:02] Suzuri
    He's up for it.
[18:04] Hyoma
    I understand that you're a friend of my master.
[18:08] Hyoma
    So I'll match your promise.
[18:11] Hyoma
    I won't destroy you.
[18:15] Nagi
    I gotta say...
[18:21] Nagi
    You've got guts, kid!
[18:36] Suzuri
    He broke it?!
[18:38] Kagami
    No, he erased it.
[18:40] Kagami
    I think that's a power of the Saenome,
[18:45] Kagami
    those chosen by Saenokami,
    guardian of the boundary.
[18:52] Nagi
    Neat.
[19:13] Kagami
    Amazing!
[19:14] Suzuri
    He's anticipating Nagi's every move.
[19:17] Yu
    Nagi's not taking it seriously yet.
[19:20] Yu
    But neither is he.
[19:24] Nagi
    Well, kid? Give me your best shot!
[19:38] Hyoma
    I said I wouldn't destroy you.
[19:40] Nagi
    Damn you...
[19:52] Yu
    Haori!
[19:55] Yu
    Botan's skipping her third period
    class to come home early!
[20:00] Haori
    What? Wait, what time is it now?
[20:03] Yu
    1:10 PM.
[20:04] Haori
    Then she'll be here any moment now!
[20:11] Kagami
    Boys, boys! Please stop fighting!
[20:14] Nagi
    Shaddap, Kagami!
[20:16] Kagami
    I'm sorry!
[20:28] Nagi
    Not bad at all.
[20:33] Haori
    Time to resort to force!
[20:36] Haori
    Everyone, restrain them both.
[20:46] Hyoma
    Hey...
[20:49] Nagi
    Um...
[20:50] Suzuri
    Whoops.
[20:51] Kagami
    O-Oh? Did we all go after Hyoma-san?
[20:55] Yu
    K-Kushige sat it out, at least.
[20:59] Nagi
    Um... I feel kinda bad about that.
[21:04] Hyoma
    Tsukumogami truly... can't be trusted.
[21:17] Hyoma
    It's a pleasure... to make your acquaintance.
[21:20] Hyoma
    I'm Kunato... Hyoma.
[21:26] Botan
    Um... I'm Nagatsuki Botan.
[21:30] Botan
    So... you guys?
[21:34] Botan
    How did this happen?
[21:38] Botan
    Nothing to say for yourselves?
[21:41] Zohei
    Tsukumogami exist in this world.
[21:44] Zohei
    This is the tale of a girl who loves them,
[21:46] Zohei
    a boy who hates them,
[21:49] Zohei
    and the others who get involved
    in their shared life together.
