Didn't we come by here before?
[02:29] Botan
No. I think it's this way.
[02:32] Hyoma
I'm so confused.
[02:35] Botan
Well, you haven't lived in Kyoto long.

Hey, is that it?

[02:49] Hyoma
Indeed.

And it's addressed to me?
[02:59] (Flashback) Suzuri
Oh, bet it's clothes.
[03:01] (Flashback) Hyoma
Clothes?
[03:02] (Flashback) Suzuri
Kyoto Saenome wear special
equipment to fight tsukumogami.
[03:07] (Flashback) Hyoma
Now that you mention it,
[03:09] (Flashback) Hyoma
when Tsubaki was wreathed in flame earlier,
[03:11] (Flashback) Hyoma
her clothing remained unscathed.
[03:13] (Flashback) Suzuri
Hey, lemme see!

I don't get to see Saenome

[03:45] (Flashback) Suzuri
It says, "When picking up your order,
a compatibility test will be conducted."
[03:50] (Flashback) Hyoma
A compatibility test?
[03:52] (Flashback) Taiju
I'm givin' you a test!
[03:58] Hyoma
No turning back now.
[04:04] Tsubaki
Hyoma-chan, you finally made it!
[04:07] Tsubaki
Haven't seen you since the Sogenbi thing!
[04:09] Tsubaki
Hey, how's the leg?
[04:11] Botan
Hyoma...chan?
[04:13] Hyoma
What brings you here?
[04:14] Tsubaki
I ordered new clothes, too!
[04:16] Tsubaki
I heard you'd be coming, so I hung around!
[04:19] Tsubaki
Plus you didn't text or call!
[04:21] Hyoma
Well, I didn't have any news—
[04:22] Tsubaki
Do it anyway!
[04:24] Botan
Excuse me!
[04:25] Botan
Do you two... know each other?
[04:28] Hyoma
Yes, she's...
[04:31] Hyoma
Could you please give me some space?
[04:32] Tsubaki
Oh, you!
[04:35] Hyoma
She's one of the Saenome
policing the tsukumogami in Kyoto.
[04:39] Hyoma
Kadomori Tsubaki. We're colleagues.
[04:42] Botan
Oh, thank you for your service.
[04:44] Botan
I'm Naga—
[04:45] Tsubaki
I know who you are.
[04:46] Tsubaki
Botan-chan.
[04:48] Tsubaki
I know all about the Nagatsukis from work.
[04:53] Tsubaki
Hey, Botan-chan. Are you...
[04:59] Tsubaki
Hyoma-chan's girlfriend?!
[05:02] Hyoma
Why are all of you like this?!
[05:03] Tsubaki
That reaction just seals the deal!
[05:06] Hyoma
No—
[05:06] Botan
It's really not like that, Kadomori-san!
[05:08] Tsubaki
Hey, call me Tsubaki.
[05:10] Tsubaki
Nice to meet you, Botan-chan.
[05:18] Tsubaki
Anyway, it's on the second floor.
[05:20] Tsubaki
This way.
[05:23] Tsubaki
Tsubaki-san's very easygoing, isn't she?
[05:27] Hyoma
She does march to her own drumbeat.
[05:29] Hyoma
Though she is quite skilled.
[05:39] Hyoma
Tsubaki, are you aware of the "test"?
[05:42] Tsubaki
Yeah. It's not especially hard...
[05:46] Tsubaki
Though I don't know how it'll be for you.
[05:49] Hyoma
What do you mean by that?
SIGN Tebata

[05:51] Tsubaki
It's kind of a special thing.
[05:55] Hyoma
Cloth?
[05:57] Botan
Wh-What's going on?!
[06:00] Hyoma
Botan!
[06:01] Hyoma
Are you all right?
[06:02] Botan
Y-Yeah.
[06:03] Botan
It's actually quite soft, but...
[06:06] Hata
Sorry 'bout that!
[06:08] Hata
The cloth we make here
has some special properties.
[06:11] Hata
It's got a life of its own, you could say.
[06:14] Hata
A spinning wheel tsukumogami
spins the thread,
SIGN — Hata —
[06:16] Hata
and I, a hand loom tsukumogami,
weave it together.
[06:20] Hata
Our nature kind of rubs off on it, I guess...
[06:23] Hata
Hey!
[06:24] Hata
Are you Nagatsuki Botan, dearie?
[06:27] Botan
Oh... hello.
[06:28] Hata
Well, no wonder it took such a shine to you!
[06:31] Hata
Never thought I'd see you
in the flesh like this!
[06:34] Tsubaki
Hang on, Hata!
[06:35] Tsubaki
We're the customers here, remember?
[06:38] Hata
Oh, you bet!
[06:39] Hata
You know I'd never forget that!
[06:40] Hyoma
Clothing created by tsukumogami...
[06:43] Hata
The cloth itself isn't
a tsukumogami, of course.
[06:47] Hata
It just picks up our
transformative properties,
[06:50] Hata
so it can adjust endurance and flexibility
in accordance with the wearer's will.
[06:55] Hata
"Living clothing."
[06:58] Hata
The "living" part is the key.
[07:00] Hata
You've gotta build a relationship with it,
[07:02] Hata
or it'll be uncooperative.
[07:05] Hata
Here, this one's done.
[07:08] Hata
For you, Tsubaki-san.
[07:11] Hata
Can you wear it to its full potential?
[07:14] Hata
That's the test.
[07:17] Hata
You really are good at that, eh?
[07:20] Tsubaki
Well, I do it often enough.
[07:21] Botan
Amazing!
[07:24] Botan
Hyoma-san?
[07:25] Hyoma
Tsukumogami... all over my body.
Tsukumogami... all over my body.
[07:28] Hata
I told you, it's not really a tsukumogami.
[07:31] Botan
Maybe you'd better not.
[07:45] Hyoma
It's all right. This is
surely part of my training.
[07:49] Hyoma
Besides...
[07:51] Hyoma
Reducing my rate of injury will help
to set your mind at ease, Botan.
[07:56] Botan
Hyoma-san...
[08:02] Hyoma
Very well. I accept your challenge.
[08:04] Hata
That's the spirit.
[08:06] Hata
Of course, there are many
kinds of relationships.
[08:09] Hata
Friendly relationships,
master-servant relationships...
[08:11] Hata
The key is just convincing it
that you're a worthy wearer.
[08:20] Tsubaki
A staredown, huh?
[08:22] Hata
A very strained atmosphere.
[08:24] Hata
Not exactly a great start.
[08:27] Botan
But it latched right on to me...
[08:29] Tsubaki
You're a rare case.
[08:31] Hata
Yep, they're not so friendly with most.
[08:34] Botan
Really?
[08:35] Tsubaki
Same with the others in your household.
[08:38] Tsubaki
You're capable of building some
pretty unprecedented relationships.
[08:42] Botan
I am?
[08:46] Tsubaki
And that's just one part
[08:48] Tsubaki
of why Papa finds you
so very, very dangerous.
[08:53] Botan
What will Hyoma-san do, then?
[08:55] Tsubaki
Probably what we all do.
[08:58] Tsubaki
Discipline!
[08:59] Tsubaki
Dominate it through sheer force,
bring it to heel,
[09:01] Tsubaki
and forge a master-servant relationship.
[09:04] Botan
You force it, then?
[09:06] Tsubaki
Hyoma-chan probably sees that
as his ideal method, too.
[09:12] Botan
You think so?
[09:14] Botan
It might have been that way
when he first came to us,
[09:18] Botan
but I feel like he might find
a different solution now.
[09:25] Hyoma
Well, let's get fighting.
[09:27] Botan
Huh?! No way!
[09:29] Hyoma
Let's not beat around the bush.
[09:31] Hyoma
Give me your best shot
with all the power you have.
[09:33] Hyoma
Let's see if we can trust
each other with our lives...
[09:35] Hyoma
through use of fists!
[09:39] Tsubaki
What in the world?
[09:41] Tsubaki
They don't even understand
the spoken word, do they?
[09:44] Hata
No, they don't.
[09:46] Hata
But it looks like the sentiment got through.
[09:53] Hyoma
Begin!
[10:02] Botan
Hyoma-san!
[10:06] Hyoma
No need to worry.
[10:07] Hyoma
I'm stronger than this.
[10:10] Hyoma
I'm sure you can see that, as well.
[10:15] Hyoma
Good.
[10:17] Hyoma
Now it's my turn!
[10:26] Tsubaki
Huh?!
[10:27] Botan
It's that kind of thing?!
[10:29] Hyoma
I'm impressed that you
endured my full-force strike.
[10:33] Hyoma
I feel I could entrust my life
to you as my armor.
[10:37] Hyoma
As reticent as I might be about it,
[10:38] Hyoma
I require your service for the fight ahead.
[10:41] Hyoma
I swear I will wear you well, wear you out,
[10:45] Hyoma
and allow you to fulfill the purpose
for which you were born.
[10:48] Hyoma
Join me!
[10:50] Hyoma
We have a common interest.
[10:52] Hyoma
Our relationship is that of comrades in arms!
[10:55] Botan
Was that it? He wasn't just resorting to force?
[10:59] Hata
It's a gray area, I guess,
[11:02] Hata
but the cloth seems pretty satisfied, so...
[11:05] Hata
I guess all's well that ends well.
SIGN Tebata Fabrics
[11:15] Hyoma
I'm sorry for the wait.
[11:17] Botan
No problem.
[11:18] Botan
Hey... You don't look any different.
[11:21] Hyoma
It seems not.
[11:23] Hyoma
It even transformed to match
my outfit's color and form.
[11:26] Hyoma
And Tsubaki?
[11:27] Botan
She headed out already.
[11:28] Hyoma
I see.
[11:31] Botan
Hyoma-san, you seem pleased with yourself.
[11:35] Hyoma
You could tell?
[11:36] Botan
Yeah, kinda.
[11:37] Hyoma
I admit, I surprised myself today.
[11:40] Hyoma
I usually see tsukumogami
as merely things to destroy,
[11:43] Hyoma
but today I looked one in the proverbial eye
and reached an agreement with it.
[11:48] Hyoma
Quite frankly, I didn't think myself
capable of such a thing.
[11:54] Hyoma
Perhaps I'm becoming the true
Saenome that Grandfather spoke of.
[12:00] Botan
At the very least, I think you're
heading in a good direction.
[12:04] Hyoma
I hope you're right.
[12:06] Hyoma
By the way, are you feeling fatigued?
[12:09] Botan
Could you tell?
[12:10] Hyoma
Vaguely.
[12:11] Botan
Well, while you were in there,
it was just me and Tsubaki-san for a while.
[12:17] Hyoma
I see.
[12:24] (Flashback) Tsubaki
Is that the Big Dipper?
[12:26] (Flashback) Tsubaki
What a great hairpin.
[12:27] (Flashback) Botan
Oh... right.
[12:29] (Flashback) Tsubaki
It really suits you. It's cute.
[12:32] (Flashback) Botan
Oh, well...
[12:34] (Flashback) Tsubaki
Hyoma-chan's pretty cute too, huh?
[12:41] (Flashback) Botan
C-Cute? Him?
[12:43] (Flashback) Tsubaki
Actually, I tried to make a move on him earlier...
[12:47] (Flashback) Botan
A mo—
[12:48] (Flashback) Tsubaki
He blew me off, though.
[12:50] (Flashback) Botan
O-Oh...
[12:52] (Flashback) Tsubaki
He's still too cute, though,
so it's hard to back down.
[13:00] (Flashback) Tsubaki
You're also very cute, and I like you, but...
[13:04] (Flashback) Botan
I-I wouldn't say I'm—
[13:07] (Flashback) Tsubaki
I'm not losing to you.
[13:12] Hyoma
You truly do appear fatigued!
[13:16] Taiju
So the kid managed to wear it, eh?
[13:20] Tsubaki
But hey, nice of you to be tactful for once.
[13:23] Tsubaki
You like Hyoma-chan now?
[13:25] Taiju
Don't be dumb.
[13:26] Taiju
Getting him the right equipment's
just part of the rules.
[13:29] Tsubaki
I also met the infamous Botan-chan.
[13:32] Tsubaki
Super-cute girl.
[13:34] Tsubaki
She and Hyoma-chan had a nice relationship.
[13:37] Tsubaki
Lots of mutual trust there.
[13:39] Taiju
Trust?
[13:42] Tsubaki
I'd say, yeah.
[13:44] Taiju
Strange.
[13:46] Taiju
I'd met the girl once before, but...
[13:49] Taiju
She didn't look like the type
to open up to others at all.
[13:54] Taiju
That's one reason I thought I could
leave her at large a while longer.
[13:59] Taiju
So that's a little unsettling to hear.
[14:04] Taiju
Times like this, the strangest things
start coming out of the woodwork.
[14:10] Botan
Hyoma-san!

[14:36] Hyoma
So you joined a club, as well?
[14:39] Botan
Actually,
[14:40] Botan
I did it all the time on New Year's
at home, so I got pretty good at it.
[14:44] Hyoma
Don't you have classes?
[14:46] Botan
This is recruitment week.
[14:47] Kana
...and those are your
recruiting stations. Let's do this!
[14:48] Botan
Classes pretty much don't start until Monday.
[14:51] Botan
Today's the day for nabbing new recruits!
[14:53] Kana
Here, Bon-chan, your share of the flyers.
[14:55] Botan
Oh, right!
[14:58] Kana
Kunato-san, thank you so much for your help.
[15:00] Kana
To be honest, when I first saw you,
[15:03] Kana
I assumed you were a bit of a hooligan.
[15:05] Botan
S-Senpai?!
[15:07] Shiho
Yeah, at first I thought Nagatsuki-senpai
had some underworld connections!
[15:11] Botan
Why?!
[15:12] Natsuki
Well, that glare...
[15:14] Natsuki
I feel like I should be begging for my life.
[15:15] Shiho
But then it turned out
he's such a hard worker...

[15:28] Hyoma
She told them we're related?
[15:31] Hyoma
Speaking of which...
[15:33] Hyoma
What's their cover story?
[15:36] Natsuki
Haori-san and the others
are also your relatives, right?
[15:40] Hyoma
You've met the—
[15:41] Botan
Welp, here goes the tour!
[15:45] Botan
They came to my culture
festival in my first year.
[15:49] Botan
My clubmates and classmates
know all about them.
[15:51] Hyoma
Is that really safe?
[15:53] Botan
Seems like it.
[15:55] Botan
They just think we're a weird family, I guess.
[15:58] Hyoma
I wonder about that.
[16:00] Botan
Oh, I forgot.

I've got a shift showing stuff to

[16:11] Kao
Please, please!
[16:12] Botan
No worries, Hyoma-san!
You can head back without me!
[16:17] Hyoma
R-Right.
[16:19] Hyoma
Botan's life at school is
livelier than I expected.
[16:25] Hyoma
But her tsukumogami, who came to her
culture festival and generally enjoy revelry,
[16:29] Hyoma
didn't come with her today... curious.
[16:32] Suzuri
First time in Kyoto, huh?
[16:34] Suzuri
I bet you wanna see everything, right?
[16:36] Suzuri
Just leave it to me!
[16:37] Suzuri
I've got my first-level
Kyoto Tourism Certification.
[16:40] Suzuri
And I'm well-versed in everything
from sweets to fast casual!
[16:44] Suzuri
So if you have any questions,
just shoot me a line.
[16:48] Nagi
Hey, Suzuri!
[16:50] Nagi
Maybe you oughta focus a little.
[16:52] Suzuri
What's the big deal?
[16:54] Suzuri
Hyoma-kun's with her today.
[16:56] Suzuri
And if I can get a source on the inside here,
[16:58] Suzuri
it'll be a big help if anything
goes down at her school.
[17:01] Suzuri
What about you, Nagi? What're you up to?
[17:03] Nagi
I dropped in on the swordsmanship club
and sliced through a training post.
[17:07] Suzuri
Sounds like you're the one
who needs some focus.
[17:09] Nagi
They called me "master,"
but I'm not cut out for teaching...
[17:13] Suzuri
Why are you picking up disciples?!
[17:15] Suzuri
You seem to be enjoying it, too.
[17:18] Suzuri
We don't want to stand out too much.
[17:20] Suzuri
Think it's time to head back?
[17:21] Nagi
Good idea.
[17:27] Nagi
Hang on a minute...
[17:29] Suzuri
Nagi?
[17:30] Nagi
The hell's she doing here?
[17:36] Suzuri
Wait!
[17:38] Nagi
If that kid's here, that means...

about which I've heard so much.

Who exactly are you?
[18:41] Hyoma
No... it doesn't matter who you are,
or what your reasons are.
[18:44] Hyoma
I can't leave at large any tsukumogami
that turns its power on others.
[18:49] Hyoma

What do you think, new blood?

I wonder if Hyoma-san left.
[19:12] Botan
I wish he'd come by to play a bit.
[19:15] Botan
I just hope he hasn't gotten himself
mixed up in something again.

I feel so light...
[19:27] Hyoma
Is it the clothing?
[19:36] Hyoma
My strength, too...
[19:38] Hyoma
Of course. No wonder the
Kyoto Saenome treasure it.
[19:42] Hyoma
But...
[19:43] Hyoma
Swords, spears...
[19:45] Hyoma
These planks are like the shoulder
guards of Japanese armor.
[19:48] Hyoma
Typically, a tsukumogami's
transformation powers
[19:51] Hyoma
are based on the one item
they took as their vessel.
[19:55] Hyoma
But I've heard there are exceptions—
[19:57] Hyoma
tsukumogami that take a full
"set" of items as their vessel.
[20:03] Hyoma
Could it be?
[20:06] Hyoma
Is he...
[20:08] Hyoma
You're an absolute monster.
[20:33] Kai
Too soft.
[20:37] Hyoma
Th-The helmet?!
[20:44] Kai
Oh? That should've gone in deep...
[20:47] Kai
Yet no external injuries.
That's excellent armor you've got.
[20:51] Hyoma
Though it can't fully deflect
the force of impact.
[20:57] Hyoma
I knew it.
[20:59] Hyoma
He's one of the three great
tsukumogami of Kyoto...
[21:04] Hyoma
Kai, the suit of armor!
[21:07] Nagi
Hey, what brings you here?
[21:11] Nagi
Shouldn't you be shut away, Itsuki?
[21:16] Nagi
But the real problem is,
I know you don't act alone.
[21:20] Nagi
Where the hell is Kai?
[21:22] Itsuki
Kai-sama is meeting with Kunato Hyoma
within the sanctuary I created.
[21:28] Nagi
With Hyoma?!
[21:29] Suzuri
What? Why?!
[21:32] Nagi
But this has all been disappointingly boring.
[21:36] Nagi
Is this really all you have?
[21:40] Nagi
What a shame.
[21:43] Nagi
I might kill you.
[21:45] Itsuki
Kai-sama is engaged in his amusements.
[21:48] Itsuki
If you seek to intervene,
[21:51] Itsuki
you will have to go through me.
