[00:01] Tsumabiki
    Let's play!
[00:09] Botan
    Incredible!
[00:10] Hyoma
    Yes, but there's something strange
    about Tsubaki's demeanor.
[00:17] Tsubaki
    I'm sorry, Hyoma-chan.
[00:19] Tsubaki
    I'm keeping it all to myself.
[00:20] Tsubaki
    But with two such fun toys in front of me...
[00:26] Tsubaki
    I just don't want to let anyone have them!
[00:51] Tsumabiki
    Damnation!
[01:33] Tsumabiki
    It's just as the rumors said.
[01:35] Tsumabiki
    She's not fighting because
    of her duty as a Saenome.
[01:39] Tsumabiki
    She's fighting for her own pleasure!
[01:44] Tsumabiki
    A true berserker...
SIGN    Malevolent Spirits
SIGN    Advent
[03:28] Tsumabiki
    Kadomori Tsubaki...
[03:31] Tsumabiki
    During the war between the
    Kyoto Saenome and the Sogenbi,
[03:36] Tsumabiki
    while Saenome and
    tsukumogami alike were dying,
[03:40] Tsumabiki
    she danced, laughing,
    through the enemy lines...
[03:44] Tsumabiki
    The one who mastered the
    Kyoto Saenome's special technique,
[03:47] Tsumabiki
    Ten Vessels Sparring,
    at the tender age of eight...
[03:50] Tsumabiki
    Who at ten years old surpassed
    not only her brothers,
[03:53] Tsumabiki
    but even veteran Saenome...
[03:57] Tsumabiki
    The Kadomori prodigy.
[04:06] Tsumabiki
    Umbrella!
[04:13] Tsubaki
    Hey! Where do you think you're going?!
[04:16] Shigure
    Stay on target, talisman user.
[04:26] Tsumabiki
    I'll let the umbrella occupy Tsubaki.
[04:29] Tsumabiki
    I'm dealing with you, Hyoma.
[04:34] Tsumabiki
    I love that expression!
[04:37] Tsumabiki
    You've processed the fact
    that we're enemies, then?
[04:42] Hyoma
    Yes.
[04:43] Hyoma
    I've gotten over my shock...
[04:45] Hyoma
    at you just being one of those
    pathetic tsukumogami who yearn
[04:50] Hyoma
    for the vague something
    hiding inside Botan.
[04:54] Hyoma
    After all your talk of "rock"...
[04:56] Hyoma
    You sicken me!
[05:00] Tsumabiki
    The key.
[05:02] Tsumabiki
    That girl is the key!
[05:06] Hyoma
    Key?
[05:07] Tsumabiki
    There's nothing "vague" about it.
[05:09] Tsumabiki
    We know just how we'll use it.
[05:13] Tsumabiki
    I don't care for being lumped in
    with the mindless masses!
[05:18] Hyoma
    What do you mean by "key"?
[05:21] Hyoma
    What are you going to use Botan to accomplish?!
[05:25] Hyoma
    Tsumabiki!
[05:28] Tsumabiki
    Human and marebito...
    spirits of different worlds.
[05:34] Tsumabiki
    Nagatsuki Botan possesses both,
    and stands between those worlds.
[05:39] Tsumabiki
    We'll use her to open the door between
    the lands of the living and the dead.
[05:48] Tsumabiki
    It will lead to utter chaos.
[05:50] Tsumabiki
    The worlds will merge together,
    leaving everything in disarray.
[05:55] Tsumabiki
    That's what we're after!
[05:58] Tsumabiki
    That's the stage we just can't do without!
[06:02] Botan
    Chaos?
[06:04] Botan
    I'm the key for... that?
[06:09] Hyoma
    I don't understand.
[06:11] Hyoma
    This chaos you're talking about...
[06:13] Hyoma
    It would be a calamity for the
    people in the land of the living!
[06:17] Hyoma
    Are you saying that's what you want?!
[06:20] Tsumabiki
    Let me make one thing clear to you, Hyoma.
[06:24] Tsumabiki
    I have absolutely nothing against humans.
[06:29] Tsumabiki
    The urge that drives us
[06:31] Tsumabiki
    is the urge to be heard.
[06:34] Tsumabiki
    Sound on its own means nothing.
[06:37] Tsumabiki
    There must be someone to hear it.
[06:40] Tsumabiki
    So we're grateful for the presence
    of humans in our lives.
[06:46] Hyoma
    Why, then?!
[06:47] Tsumabiki
    It's the urge!
[06:50] Tsumabiki
    The urge to be heard!
[06:52] Tsumabiki
    To be heard on an ever grander stage,
    by ever more entities!
[06:56] Tsumabiki
    That desire is what drives us,
    single-mindedly, down the path that we walk!
[07:03] Tsumabiki
    That's what the Bureau of Traditional Music is!
[07:16] Tsumabiki
    In a world like none ever seen before...
[07:19] Tsumabiki
    A world where humans and marebito
    interact indiscriminately...
[07:25] Tsumabiki
    We'll make our sound heard by all!
[07:29] Tsumabiki
    Can you imagine anything more exciting?
[07:31] Tsumabiki
    This is our ambition!
[07:32] Tsumabiki
    And this is the nature
[07:35] Tsumabiki
    of rock!
[07:41] (Flashback) Tsuzumi
    The way of rock is...
[07:43] (Flashback) Tsuzumi
    to struggle, break through, and move on,
[07:46] (Flashback) Tsuzumi
    no matter what circumstances
    you find yourself in!
[07:48] (Flashback) Tsuzumi
    It's the practice of shouting
    who you are from the rooftops!
[07:52] Botan
    That's what it's been... this whole time.
[07:56] Tsumabiki
    My heart is racing! My mind is dancing!
[08:00] Tsumabiki
    Do you feel it, Hyoma?!
[08:02] Hyoma
    I do not!
[08:14] Tsuzumi
    I'm not through yet!
[08:15] Tsuzumi
    Not yet!
[08:17] Taiju
    Devour!
[08:21] Tsuzumi
    This has been a fun little game, Taiju!
[08:35] Tsuzumi
    It was a good plan, though.
[09:03] Tsumabiki
    His foot?!
[09:12] Tsubaki
    That can't possibly be all you've got!
[09:14] Tsubaki
    It's really not, is it?
[09:21] Tsubaki
    Hey, what happened to that pressure of yours?!
[09:29] Tsubaki
    Where'd that cut come from?
[09:32] Tsubaki
    Oh, of course...
[09:35] Tsubaki
    Yes, I knew there was more!
[09:39] Tsubaki
    So much more fun to be had!
[09:55] Tsuzumi
    Enough!
[10:00] Hyoma
    Tsumabiki?!
[10:02] Tsubaki
    Whew!
[10:04] Tsubaki
    Aw, and it was just getting good!
[10:08] Tsubaki
    Hang on. That voice...
[10:12] Tsubaki
    Hyoma-chan?
[10:14] Hyoma
    Yes. Tsubaki...
[10:17] Hyoma
    The situation may have just gotten worse.
[10:20] Botan
    Oh, no...
[10:27] Tsubaki
    They'd have been targeting the other Saenome
    so the old woman could do her work.
[10:34] Tsubaki
    If they're here now, that means...
[10:39] Tsubaki
    We're out of allies.
[10:42] Tsumabiki
    So sorry, Hyoma.
[10:44] Tsumabiki
    The gang's all here now.
[10:48] Tsumabiki
    There'll be no more one-on-one.
[10:52] Hyoma
    Botan.
[10:52] Tsubaki
    Botan-chan.
[10:53] Hyoma
    I know it's a tall order, but please, run away.
[10:57] Hyoma
    We'll make an opening for you.
[11:00] Tsubaki
    And I'm already tired after all that playing.
[11:03] Botan
    Tsubaki-san... Hyoma-san...
[11:08] Tsumabiki
    No, she can't escape.
[11:11] Tsumabiki
    Didn't I tell you? The gang's all here.
[11:15] Tsumabiki
    Fukie.
[11:19] Hyoma
    An attack?
[11:21] Tsubaki
    No, it's not.
[11:22] Tsubaki
    This is...
[11:24] Tsumabiki
    Yes. The traditional song, "Koranjo."
[11:28] Tsumabiki
    In other words...
[11:30] Tsumabiki
    Entrance music!
[11:37] Hyoma
    Wh-What...
[11:43] Shigure
    Master, allow us to give you our names at last.
[11:48] Shigure
    We are the Warazamawashi.
[11:52] Shigure
    Kogarashi.
[11:53] Shigure
    Fubuki.
[11:55] Shigure
    Tenjitsu.
[12:00] Shigure
    And...
[12:02] Shigure
    My name is Shigure.
SIGN    — Shigure —
[12:05] Shigure
    It's such a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
[12:10] Shigure
    My master...
[12:12] Shigure
    I'd like to start with clean-up.
[12:16] Shigure
    Those who protect the vessel
    that keeps you locked away...
[12:21] Shigure
    In your name, I'll destroy them all.
[12:25] Shigure
    So that the vessel, Nagatsuki Botan,
[12:27] Shigure
    is left without the smallest crumb of hope.
[12:32] Shigure
    My master...
[12:34] Shigure
    I'd like to start with clean-up.
[12:38] Shigure
    Those who protect the vessel
    that keeps you locked away...
[12:43] Shigure
    In your name, I'll destroy them all.
[12:48] Botan
    At this rate...
[12:49] Botan
    At this rate, Hyoma-san
    and the others really will...
[12:56] Hyoma
    It's there.
[12:58] Hyoma
    It's one of them.
[13:00] Hyoma
    The one I'm after...
[13:02] Hyoma
    is there!
[13:06] Hyoma
    It's not just similar.
[13:09] Hyoma
    I feel the exact same spirit energy
    from one of them.
[13:14] Hyoma
    I've finally found...
[13:17] Hyoma
    the one!
SIGN    Hayato (Brother)
     Heya
SIGN    Wanna see how
     we help guide a tsukumogami?
[13:24] (Flashback) Hayato
    Is this the one?
[13:26] (Flashback) Kusui
    Looks like.
[13:30] (Flashback) Hayato
    Hey there! What are you crying for?
[13:32] (Flashback) Kusui
    You okay?
[13:48] Hayato
    The talisman effect backfired?!
[13:54] (Flashback) Kusui
    It's laid out... a circle.
[13:58] Hayato
    A talisman barrier for reversing techniques?!
[14:02] Hayato
    Was this all a trap?!
[14:04] Hayato
    But... why do you...
[14:07] Hayato
    Why does a tsukumogami know
    how to use Saenome talismans?!
[14:18] Hyoma
    At last!
[14:27] (Flashback) Hayato
    Run, Hyoma!
[14:29] (Flashback) Hayato
    He's...
[14:55] (Flashback) Hayato
    R-Run!
[15:01] (Flashback) Kusui
    Hi-kun!
[15:08] (Flashback) Hyoma
    Big Sister! Big Brother!
[15:20] Hyoma
    But...
[15:22] (Flashback) Zohei
    You're too preoccupied with the past.
[15:25] (Flashback) Zohei
    Hyoma.
[15:26] (Flashback) Zohei
    I thought you were strong
    enough to grow past that.
[15:31] (Flashback) Suzuri
    Hyoma-kun kept you
    from doing further harm.
[15:33] (Flashback) Botan
    You can change. You can overcome this.
[15:36] (Flashback) Hyoma
    I'll always keep you safe.
[15:37] (Flashback) Haori
    You can say that, can't you?
[15:40] (Flashback) Yu
    Idiot.
[15:42] (Flashback) Nagi
    Counting on you, Hyoma!
[15:45] (Flashback) Nagi
    That's a promise between men!
[15:53] Hyoma
    Botan...
[15:54] Hyoma
    As I told you before,
    run away when I make an opening.
[15:59] Hyoma
    It's all right.
[16:01] Hyoma
    I will fulfill my vow.
[16:03] Hyoma
    I will!
[16:05] Botan
    Hyoma-san...
[16:08] Tsubaki
    Hyoma-chan's prioritizing
    his duty over his revenge.
[16:15] Tsubaki
    He was capable of that...
[16:19] Tsubaki
    It's frustrating...
    but it's the right thing to do.
[16:24] Tsubaki
    This is the stage of the game where
    a moment's distraction could mean death.
[16:32] Tsubaki
    Yes...
[16:34] Tsubaki
    They said they want to clean up first...
[16:37] Tsubaki
    which means their first priority is us!
[16:41] Tsubaki
    Stand back, Botan-chan.
[16:44] Tsubaki
    The enemy's on the way!
[16:47] Tsubaki
    Hyoma-chan!
[16:49] Hyoma
    Right!
[16:55] Hyoma
    They've arranged something.
SIGN    — Kogarashi —
[17:04] Hyoma
    From the ground?!
[17:07] Tsuzumi
    You seem distracted!
[17:12] Tsuzumi
    Not enough!
[17:17] Tsubaki
    What?!
[17:19] Tsubaki
    I see. Shadows...
[17:21] Tsubaki
    The fan-like umbrella creates
    shadows they can move in!
[17:30] Tsubaki
    Incredible!
[17:35] Hyoma
    We can't afford to keep fighting here.
[17:38] Hyoma
    If we can't move to a place with
    fewer shadows, the ambushes—
SIGN    — Fubuki —
[17:53] Hyoma
    It's not over!
[17:55] Tsubaki
    It's not over!
[17:58] Tenjitsu
    It's begun.
SIGN    — Tenjitsu —
[18:01] Tenjitsu
    The slow death.
[18:08] Tenjitsu
    Little by little. Little by little...
[18:11] Tenjitsu
    Come closer to death.
[18:14] Tenjitsu
    That's the only thing you're good for.
[18:19] Tenjitsu
    And you...
[18:22] Tenjitsu
    Nagatsuki Botan.
[18:26] Botan
    I know I'm supposed to run...
[18:28] Botan
    I know they're fighting to let me escape,
[18:32] Botan
    getting injured doing it...
[18:34] Botan
    But I can't move my legs...
[18:36] Botan
    No, not just that.
[18:38] Botan
    I can't even speak, or look away...
[18:44] Botan
    Something's preventing me from doing it.
[18:54] Tenjitsu
    Yes, Fukie.
[18:56] Tenjitsu
    Bind Nagatsuki Botan to the spot.
[18:58] Tenjitsu
    Make sure she takes in every moment of this.
[19:02] Tenjitsu
    Tsumabiki and the others were naïve.
[19:04] Tenjitsu
    They were trying to kill those two quickly.
[19:08] Tenjitsu
    "Then we can take Nagatsuki Botan
    and go," they thought.
[19:13] Tenjitsu
    But wouldn't that be such a waste?
[19:18] Tenjitsu
    They should be an offering.
[19:22] Shigure
    What do you think, Nagatsuki Botan?
[19:26] Shigure
    The sight of those two noble warriors
[19:29] Shigure
    risking their lives to protect you...
[19:32] Shigure
    Doesn't it spark a memory?
[19:45] Shigure
    Yes. You've got it, haven't you?
[19:50] (Flashback) Satsuki
    Let's live together.
[19:53] (Flashback) Satsuki
    You'll find happiness as a human.
[19:56] (Flashback) Satsuki
    Okay?
[20:29] (Flashback) Botan
    Satsuki-san...
[20:31] (Flashback) Satsuki
    Botan-chan...
[20:37] Botan
    S-Satsuki-sa—
[20:42] Shigure
    Oh, yes.
[20:44] Shigure
    Wasn't there someone who died
    protecting you once before?
[20:57] Shigure
    Today's just the same.
[21:09] Tenjitsu
    Nagatsuki Botan's mind had to be
    sequestered to prevent disturbances.
[21:17] Tenjitsu
    Kushige served that purpose,
    but now that he's gone...
[21:24] Tenjitsu
    There's nothing to keep what
    lies beneath from surfacing,
[21:29] Tenjitsu
    led by the disturbance known as despair!
[21:32] Tsuzumi
    This feeling...
[21:34] Tsuzumi
    Ma'am...
[21:38] Tenjitsu
    Yes. It's coming!
[21:47] Tenjitsu
    The living god is here!
