[00:16] Ilulu     Is it ready now? [00:17] Kanna     More. [00:19] Tohru     Good morning, Miss Kobayashi. [00:21] Kanna     Morning, Kobayashi. [00:23] Ilulu     Morning. [00:24] Kobayashi     Morning. [00:26] Tohru     Today I made some okra miso soup,      since it's summer. [00:29] Kobayashi     Yeah, thanks. SIGN    Oborozuka Big Festival [00:31] Ilulu     Hey, there's something called a     summer festival coming up, right? [00:34] Ilulu     Take mentioned it. [00:35] Kanna     Mm, I promised to go with Saikawa. [00:38] Ilulu     What do you do there? [00:40] Kanna     I heard they open up lots      of these things called stalls! [01:29] Kobayashi     Hey, Takiya-kun. [01:31] Takiya     Hmm? [01:32] Kobayashi     What do you do when     relationships get serious? [01:35] Takiya     Huh? Well... [01:37] Takiya     Go with the flow, I guess? [01:42] Kobayashi     I see. [01:47] Kobayashi     I see. SIGN    Oborozuka Big Festival [01:56] Kobayashi     Oh, yeah, they were talking     about that this morning. [02:00] Kobayashi     Guess I'll go with Tohru. [02:02] Kobayashi     Yukata... guess I'll buy some. [02:05] Kobayashi     I won't wear one, though. [02:09] Kobayashi     They're already decorating. [02:14] Kobayashi     Tohru? Why? [02:17] Tohru     The people from the shopping     district asked for my help. [02:20] Kobayashi     Wow. They have a lot of faith in you. [02:22] Tohru     I don't care if it's for the festival.      It's a huge bother. [02:26] Kobayashi     Really? You were smiling, though. [02:28] Tohru     Because that's the street you pass through. [02:31] Tohru     The thought of you walking under     the decorative lights I hung up... [02:35] Kobayashi     That's poetic. [02:36] Kobayashi     Are you doing anything on the day of? [02:38] Tohru     Apparently, the girls from the maid     café will have a stall there, [02:41] Tohru     so I'll probably help them out. [02:43] Kobayashi     Hmm. [02:45] Kobayashi     Lately Tohru's been doing well, hasn't she? [02:50] Kobayashi     She's taking initiative to interact     with the people in this town, [02:53] Kobayashi     she's working with them to build up trust, [02:56] Kobayashi     and she's living up to their faith. [02:58] Kobayashi     I guess that's easy enough to     do with the power of a dragon. [03:03] Kobayashi     I think those are all good changes. [03:06] Kobayashi     It's just... [03:08] Kobayashi     It just makes me think about it again. [03:11] Kobayashi     About whether or not I'm     worthy of Tohru's affection. [03:15] Kobayashi     No, I guess it's a little different. [03:18] Kobayashi     As she's started bothering me     less and less, I'm feeling a bit... [03:22] Kobayashi     lonely, I think? [03:25] Kobayashi     Well, I'll just swallow that down. SIGN    Oborozuka Big Festival [03:41] Kanna     I want this one. [03:43] Kobayashi     Yeah, it's cute. [03:45] Kanna     Yay! [03:46] Ilulu     Kobayashi! [03:47] Ilulu     How about this one?

[03:57] Tohru     Miss Kobayashi! [03:58] Tohru     Which one do you think is best? [04:00] Kobayashi     You should choose the one you like most. [04:02] Tohru     I want you to pick for me! [04:05] Kobayashi     Huh? Then... [04:07] Kobayashi     Eenie meenie miney mo, [04:10] Kobayashi     ask God in Heaven if he knows... [04:13] Kobayashi     Okay, this one.

[04:40] Elma     There was whole roasted pig, baked chicken, [04:42] Kobayashi     She only remembers the food. [04:43] Elma     grape juice, and this and     that and the other... [04:45] Kanna     Oh, there's Lady Tohru! [04:47] Tohru     Here you go, our maid café's     special omelet rice! [04:50] Kanna     Lady Tohru! [04:53] Tohru     Ohh, you came by. [04:55] Kobayashi     Why are you dressed like a festival     leader instead of a maid? [04:59] Tohru     Huh? Maid outfits are hard     to move around in, right? [05:02] Kobayashi     You went and said it, you bastard... SIGN    Omelet Rice 400 yen [05:04] Tohru     What matters most is the heart! [05:06] Elma     Omelet rice! Give me one, too!

[06:06] Lucoa     Yeah, though they're      a little different here. [06:09] Elma     In our original world many festivals     were held to celebrate the gods. [06:12] Kobayashi     Wow. Lately those sentiments have     been declining here in Japan. [06:16] Elma     Celebrating the gods made security     tight and dragons couldn't get close. [06:20] Lucoa     Yeah. [06:21] Lucoa     In the big country up north they     held a big festival in the spring. [06:25] Elma     Yeah, it was hard to pass through     there during that season. [06:28] Lucoa     The gods actually came down for it, too. [06:28] Kobayashi     Local talk... [06:30] Kobayashi     I can't jump in at all. [06:32] Kobayashi     It's fun to hear stories     about another world, [06:35] Kobayashi     but I feel kind of alienated. [06:37] Kobayashi     Well, I'll just swallow that down. [06:42] Saikawa     Amazing! [06:45] Saikawa     Kanna-san, your yukata's so cute! [06:49] Kanna     Your yukata's cute, too, Saikawa. [06:56] Saikawa     Kanna-san, let's come to the     festival together next year, too. [06:59] Kanna     Mmm. [07:00] Saikawa     Let's come together when we're all grown up      and even after we become grannies! [07:07] Kanna     Saikawa. [07:08] Kanna     Live a long life. [07:09] Saikawa     Huh? Yeah, I will? [07:14] Saikawa     You and I are BFFs! BFFs! SIGN    Melon Ramune [07:23] Ilulu     This is a great place. [07:25] Ilulu     Kids are smiling! [07:27] Take     You always act like a kid, [07:29] Take     but every now and then you     act way more mature than me. [07:34] Take     It won't fall down! [07:37] Ilulu     Take, I'm being tricked into being here. [07:40] Take     Tricked into it? [07:42] Ilulu     I was told I had to be an adult. [07:45] Ilulu     I thought I could never     go back to being a kid, [07:49] Ilulu     but Kobayashi enticed me. [07:51] Ilulu     She said it was okay to be a kid again. [07:55] Take     Hmm... [07:57] Take     And yet the mature version     of you is still there, too. [08:00] Ilulu     You think? [08:01] Take     Well, if that's how it is,     then I'll trick you, too. [08:04] Sign     Baby Castella [08:04] Take     I'll let you be a kid! [08:09] Take     Yeah! [08:10] Ilulu     Then... [08:11] Ilulu     I guess I'll make you an adult, Take! [08:14] Take     Wh-What are you saying?! [08:16] Ilulu     Oh, did you just look at my breasts? [08:18] Ilulu     Wow, pervert! [08:19] Take     You precocious brat! [08:21] Lucoa     Those who knew the old you would     be shocked to see you now. [08:25] Elma     You're one to talk, Lucoa. [08:28] Elma     To think a goddess would be content     with being someone's familiar. [08:32] Lucoa     I'm doing that because I want to. [08:34] Lucoa     If you're not having fun,     you're missing out. [08:36] Elma     Yeah, that's true. [08:38] Kobayashi     Shouta-kun, do you like Lucoa-san? [08:41] Shouta     Wh-What's this out of the blue?! [08:42] Kobayashi     Well... [08:43] Kobayashi     Say for example that Lucoa-san got friendly     with your friends or classmates. [08:50] Kobayashi     What would you think when you saw that? [08:57] Kobayashi     Oh, sorry. [08:58] Kobayashi     You don't need to say anything. [08:59] Kobayashi     You don't need to say anything. [09:01] Kobayashi     That's right. [09:02] Kobayashi     Of course he'd feel uncomfortable. [09:08] Elma     Where are you going? [09:10] Kobayashi     It's been an hour. [09:15] Tohru     Huh? Miss Kobayashi? [09:17] Tohru     I was just about to go look for you. SIGN    Fortune Drawing SIGN    Skewers [09:20] Kobayashi     You look good in your yukata. [09:22] Tohru     Thank you so much! [09:24] Tohru     Is everyone over there? [09:29] Kobayashi     Hey... [09:33] Kobayashi     Let's walk around, just the two of us. [09:42] Tohru     Gladly! [09:44] Tohru     What's gotten into you, Miss Kobayashi? SIGN    Special Fried Squid [09:47] Tohru     Oh, have you finally come     to understand my charms? [09:52] Kobayashi     Yeah. [09:53] Tohru     What?! [09:54] Kobayashi     You're one of the strongest dragons,     capable of fighting even the gods. [09:58] Kobayashi     But here, you're able to make friends     with anyone when you feel like it. [10:03] Kobayashi     Lately I've been thinking,     after hearing about your past. [10:07] Kobayashi     Is it really okay for me to be loved     by such an incredible person? SIGN    Goldfish Scooping [10:11] Tohru     You've been thinking about that? [10:14] Tohru     I suppose I did share a few     too many heavy stories. [10:17] Kobayashi     You're living with me like     it's perfectly natural, [10:21] Kobayashi     but the things you've had to shoulder... [10:24] Kobayashi     And yeah, you're a dragon, too, [10:27] Kobayashi     so what is this whole situation? [10:30] Kobayashi     That's been spinning in my head. [10:32] Tohru     So...? [10:35] Kobayashi     It's fine, the way things are now, [10:37] Kobayashi     as much trouble as it can be. [10:40] Tohru     Huh... SIGN    Horiuchi Butchery [10:42] Kobayashi     Well, that was my decision, [10:46] Kobayashi     but I want to know how you feel, Tohru. [10:49] Tohru     How I feel? [10:53] Tohru     I love you, Miss Kobayashi. [10:55] Tohru     Though I do feel that... [10:58] Tohru     I'm better than you, than all humans,     really, in many respects. [11:03] Tohru     Of course I am. [11:05] Tohru     I'm a dragon and I also take pride in that. [11:08] Tohru     I've been in places where     you have to risk death [11:11] Tohru     and put everything on the line     to prove your superiority. SIGN    Crepes SIGN    Yakisoba SIGN    Buttered Potatoes SIGN    Chocolate Bananas [11:14] Tohru     But my heart... [11:16] Tohru     When it comes to the heart,     there is no way to prove that. [11:19] Tohru     Is it better if you're     more suited to fighting? [11:21] Tohru     If you're more beautiful? [11:23] Tohru     If you're smarter? [11:25] Tohru     I was always trying to be those things. [11:28] Tohru     I was always wishing I could be those things. [11:30] Tohru     I was trying to be an adult, [11:33] Tohru     but I didn't have to try to be anything. [11:36] Tohru     It was okay to just be myself. [11:40] Tohru     You're the one who made me     realize that, Miss Kobayashi. [11:44] Kobayashi     There you go, giving me     too much credit again. [11:47] Tohru     It makes me happy that you're     so unaware of it yourself, [11:51] Tohru     because it means you're someone     who saved me just that easily. [11:56] Tohru     Miss Kobayashi. [11:58] Tohru     I love you. [12:06] Tohru     For now and forevermore. [12:37] Kobayashi     Tohru. [12:38] Tohru     Yes?! [12:40] Kobayashi     You're clingy. [12:41] Tohru     Huh?! [12:50] Takiya     Do you have any photos     of the summer festival? [12:52] Kobayashi     I do. Want to see? [13:02] Takiya     Yeah, I can tell you had fun. [13:05] Kobayashi     Right? SIGN    Life Is Constant Change (But It's Okay To Stop And Appreciate It) SIGN    Final Episode [13:14] Lucoa     Hey, want to go flower viewing? [13:22] Kobayashi     It's the middle of summer.     What are you talking about? [13:25] Lucoa     I know someone whose flesh     turns into flowers. [13:29] Lucoa     They shared some with me, but it wouldn't     be right to enjoy them all by myself. [13:34] Kobayashi     Flesh into flowers? [13:36] Tohru     Why not? [13:37] Tohru     I'll run the flower viewing     so Miss Kobayashi can enjoy it! [13:41] Kobayashi     Why are you so into this? [13:44] Tohru     Come on, what's wrong with flower viewing? [13:48] Tohru     Oh, do you need more somen broth? [13:56] Kobayashi     Wow. [13:58] Kobayashi     This is all flesh, huh? [14:00] Kobayashi     It looks just like cherry blossoms. [14:02] Lucoa     Pretty, isn't it? [14:04] Takiya     Okay, I brought the drinks, too, [14:07] Takiya     so shall we get started? [14:08] Kobayashi     Yeah. [14:11] Tohru     Then by your leave, I'll begin     the opening as the organizer. [14:14] Tohru     Thank you all for gathering here today     for Miss Kobayashi's flower viewing. [14:20] Tohru     We have several recreations prepared     for Miss Kobayashi to enjoy, [14:24] Tohru     so please lend your assistance with them. [14:26] Kobayashi     This is making me uncomfortable, so stop! [14:35] Elma     Sakura mochi's so good. [14:44] Kobayashi     This is nice. [14:46] Kobayashi     There's something much more satisfying     about drinking while enjoying nature. [14:51] Tohru     Enjoying nature? [14:54] Tohru     You make it sound like humans     are separate from nature. [14:58] Kobayashi     True. [14:59] Kobayashi     Maybe that's just what happens [15:01] Kobayashi     when we try to seek objective beauty     and share it with each other. [15:04] Kobayashi     Hmm? [15:05] Kobayashi     Huh? [15:07] Kobayashi     Now this is bad. [15:08] Kobayashi     Why did you even come? [15:09] Takiya     No, this is the real     pleasure of these events. [15:12] Fafnir     Takiya, don't get distracted! [15:14] Fafnir     We have to work together to sever its tail! [15:16] Fafnir     We're relying on you! [15:17] Kobayashi     You have incredible faith     in each other in that game. [15:21] Kobayashi     You're with them, too, Shouta-kun? [15:23] Shouta     I mean, it's only women over there,     so I feel awkward. [15:27] Kobayashi     Guess that's a good point. [15:28] Elma     What's this, boy? You're bored? [15:31] Kobayashi     Elma. [15:31] Elma     All right, I'll strip down and help. [15:40] Fafnir     What are you doing? [15:42] Elma     I heard it was common to perform     a thing or two at events like these. [15:46] Elma     After some research, I decided     this was the best one. [15:48] Takiya     You went all out for it. [15:50] Kobayashi     That's for specific old     men to do, not a woman... [15:55] Kobayashi     Or... I guess he really likes it! [15:56] Kobayashi     And Tohru... [15:59] Tohru     Pathetic! [16:00] Kobayashi     ...likes it for a different reason. [16:03] Kanna     Next time I'll do that for Saikawa! [16:05] Ilulu     I'll show it to Take, too. [16:07] Kobayashi     Please don't. [16:09] Tohru     Okay! Now everyone's getting excited! [16:12] Tohru     We're going to have a competition, [16:13] Tohru     so please draw lots to     determine the brackets. [16:16] Ilulu     Competition? [16:17] Tohru     An arm wrestling competition! [16:19] Ilulu     Did you draw the image on that box? [16:22] Kanna     You're so good, Lady Tohru! [16:24] Kobayashi     I'm not participating in that, am I? [16:26] Tohru     You'll be our judge, Miss Kobayashi! [16:28] Kobayashi     I see. [16:32] Tohru     Come on. You, too, Mr. Fafnir. [16:35] Fafnir     Tch! [16:36] Tohru     Heave, ho! [16:42] Kobayashi     Okay, first round. [16:44] Kobayashi     Takiya-kun versus Ilulu. [16:46] Kobayashi     Takiya-kun, are you doing this? [16:48] Takiya     Huh? Yeah, might as well. [16:50] Kobayashi     Whatever. [16:53] Kobayashi     Ready? Ready, Go! [17:05] Takiya     I might have broken bones. [17:07] Tohru     Oh, that's all you walked away with? [17:09] Ilulu     Will he be okay? [17:11] Kobayashi     Takiya-kun's surprisingly reckless, huh? [17:14] Kobayashi     Okay, round two is Kanna-chan versus Lucoa-san. [17:18] Kobayashi     Ready, [17:20] Kobayashi     go! [17:23] Kobayashi     Lucoa-san wins. [17:25] Kobayashi     Kanna-chan, you can't use both hands. [17:27] Kanna     Oh! [17:30] Fafnir     You doing this? [17:31] Shouta     I'm not! [17:33] Lucoa     Shouta-kun, you can do it! [17:34] Shouta      [17:59] Tohru     If I can just defeat you... [18:03] Elma     Tohru was expected, but Lucoa, huh? [18:06] Kobayashi     I thought Faf-san would make it. [18:09] Fafnir     Don't call me that. [18:10] Tohru     Maybe you got rusty from     holing up all the time? [18:13] Fafnir     Stuff it. [18:14] Lucoa     That reminds me. [18:16] Lucoa     I think this is the first time you and I     have fought one-on-one, even in a game. [18:21] Tohru     That might be how you see it. [18:24] Lucoa     Shall we take this seriously, then? [18:36] Tohru     Sh-She's strong! [18:39] Tohru     I'm going to lose! [18:42] Shouta     Tohru-san, you can do it! [18:44] Lucoa     Huh?! [18:44] Lucoa     Not me?! [18:46] Tohru     Now! [18:51] Kobayashi     Winner, Tohru! [18:53] Tohru     Yay! [18:55] Kanna     Lady Tohru! [18:57] Ilulu     Impressive.

[22:26] Lucoa     Let's give them our blessings. [22:30] Takiya     Good grief, I can't turn a blind     eye to my coworker's crisis. [22:38] Fafnir     Hmph. Good grief.
