[03:28] T     Thank you for all your work. [03:31] Delivery     Thank you. [03:34] T     The cushion to help with     Miss Kobayashi's lower back pain, huh? [03:39] T     Well, the laundry's finished. [03:42] T     All that's left is the omurice for dinner. [03:47] T     It's all for Miss Kobayashi. [03:50] (Flashback) K     Make us good ones, please. [03:53] T     I must prepare the best omurice ever! [03:56] T     First, some trial runs. [04:01] T     Finished! [04:04] T     How's that? [04:05] T     Fluffy, juicy eggs, hot rice with     ketchup, all at restaurant quality! [04:11] T     And the taste... [04:15] T     is average?! [04:17] T     It's not that it isn't good, but... [04:20] T     Hmm... [04:22] (Flashback) K     Make us good ones, please. [04:26] T     Ah! [04:28] T     I want it to be a little more special. [04:31] T     Though she already warned     me not to add tail... [04:36] T     Yes? [04:37] L     Hey. [04:39] T     Oh, it's you, Miss Lucoa. [04:41] L     I brought some snacks. Want some? [04:45] T     Thank you very much. [04:50] T     What's with that outfit? [04:52] L     Everyone was always saying something to me,     so I tried toning down the exposure. [04:55] L     How is it? [04:57] T     You should change your body next. [04:59] L     Huh? [05:00] T     Please, come inside. [05:02] L     Yeah. Pardon me. [05:09] L     No wonder that shop receives such praise. [05:11] T     I'll put on another cup for you. [05:14] L     Oh, but I need to be going. [05:16] T     Right! [05:18] T     I was in the middle of making trial batches     of omurice for Miss Kobayashi to eat. [05:22] T     Do you know any techniques     to make them taste good? [05:26] L     Oh, omurice, huh? [05:28] L     Hmm... [05:31] L     The quickest way would probably be     to use good ingredients, I think? [05:35] T     I see. [05:36] L     Later! The tea was delicious. [05:40] T     It was nothing. [05:45] T     Ingredients, huh? SIGN    Oborozuka Shopping District SIGN    Prime Free-Range Chicken Thighs [05:53] T     It's expensive. [05:55] T     If I gather good rice,     vegetables, and eggs... [05:59] T     Yeah, all right. [06:00] T     Over budget?! [06:02] Butcher     Shopping for dinner, Tohru-chan? [06:05] T     Oh, Mr. Tatsuta. [06:07] T     This chicken is expensive, isn't it? [06:11] Butcher     Well, that's the best free-range     chicken from Akita, after all. [06:14] T     Could you give me a discount? [06:17] Butcher     Hmm, it's already priced as low as I can go. [06:19] T     Could you please?! [06:20] Butcher     If I go any lower,     it'll hurt my own livelihood. [06:25] T     I see. [06:26] Butcher     But I wanted to thank you     for the other day, too. [06:29] Butcher     I could give you extra on these cuts. SIGN    Chicken Thighs SIGN    Chicken Thighs [06:33] T     They're average! [06:34] T     That would defeat the point. [06:36] Butcher     It would? [06:39] K     Make us good ones, please. [06:42] T     I don't have a choice. [06:53] T     Hereabouts should be good. [07:07] Kanna     I'm home! [07:10] T     Welcome home, Kanna! [07:17] Kanna     Lady Tohru, what's this? [07:19] T     Ingredients for our omurice. [07:21] Kanna     You went back again? [07:23] T     Only for a moment. [07:26] Kanna     What eggs are these? [07:28] T     They're Gullinkambi eggs. [07:31] Kanna     The one serving as Valhalla's alarm clock? [07:34] T     Yes. [07:34] Gullinkambi     Cock-a-doodle-doo! [07:36] (Flashback) Einherjar     They're damn good! [07:38] (Flashback) T     Really? [07:39] T     An einherjar told me they're     incredibly delicious. [07:43] Kanna     And this? [07:44] T     That's... [07:45] T     spring water from an elf village. [07:47] T     I was planning to cook the     rice with it. Just... [07:52] T     I've fought with the elves     before, so I took it in secret. [07:56] Kanna     You couldn't complain if     they killed you over that. [07:59] T     There's also meat from bull demons,     and fruits that only grow in that world. [08:05] Kanna     What about the rice and vegetables? [08:07] T     I thought it best to use rice     and vegetables from this world. [08:10] Kanna     True, the rice in this nation is delicious. [08:13] T     Apparently they use some magic     called "selective breeding." [08:18] T     I should have them teach me     the incantation some time. [08:22] T     Now, then. [08:23] T     Time to get cooking! [08:25] T     Kanna, could you help me, too? [08:27] Kanna     Yeah! [08:33] L     Roar! [08:35] Shouta     Demons out! Blessings in! [08:35] L     Roar, roar!

[09:30] K     She set it out with such confidence... [09:33] K     And it was damn good! [09:35] K     Normally, she always made     weird things, though. [09:38] K     Thinking about it now...

[14:52] (Flashback) K     Normally they're divided by their     roles into house maids, laundry maids, [14:55] (Flashback) K     and so forth, and it takes training to be     one, unlike those girls at maid cafés—Oh! [15:00] (Flashback) K     I'm Kobayashi. [15:04] (Flashback) T     I'm Tohru. [15:06] (Flashback) K     So, Tohru. [15:07] (Flashback) K     I'm not out to deny the     existence of maid cafés.

[16:40] K     No. [16:42] K     Speaking of which, were there any humans     you were close to in your old world? [16:46] T     Humans? [16:48] T     Well, if I had to say, there was one     human I associated with for a time. [16:55] K     Oh? What were they like? [16:58] T     Well, allow me to talk about     my former self a bit. [17:07] T     I first met that human in     an empty, ruined village. [17:14] (Flashback) T     Hmm, guess I'll make this     place my home for a while. [17:19] (Flashback) T     Hmm? [17:23] (Flashback) Girl     It's rare to see a dragon     in a place like this! [17:27] (Flashback) Girl     I was just lying low for a bit. [17:29] (Flashback) Girl     Let me stay with you for a while! [17:31] (Flashback) T     A bandit? [17:32] (Flashback) Girl     Uh-huh. [17:34] (Flashback) Girl     I mistook a noble for a merchant and     attacked them, now I'm on the run.

[17:54] (Flashback) Girl     This is the first time I've     ever heard anyone say [17:56] (Flashback) Girl     they'd kill me with so little     intent behind the words! [17:58] (Flashback) Girl     Miss Dragon, you're not used to     threatening people, are you? [18:01] (Flashback) T     It's not just a threat! [18:06] (Flashback) Girl     See? [18:10] (Flashback) Girl     So it's okay, right? [18:12] (Flashback) Girl     Let me stay for a while. [18:15] (Flashback) T     Do as you please. [18:17] (Flashback) Girl     Yeah. [18:18] T     Thinking back on it now,     I could've just left myself. [18:22] T     But at the time I couldn't     let myself yield to a human. [18:28] (Flashback) Girl     Hey, hey, what's it feel     like being a dragon? [18:34] (Flashback) T     What do you mean? [18:36] (Flashback) Girl     You can fly through the sky, and possess     such power you'll never lose to anyone. [18:41] (Flashback) Girl     I want to know what it feels like to     be able to live freely in this world. [18:45] (Flashback) Girl     Huh? You're ignoring me? [18:47] Girl     No way! [18:47] T     At the time I found myself thinking. [18:48] Girl     You responded to me! Hey! [18:50] T     What was my freedom like? [18:52] T     I never thought of myself     as free before then. [18:56] T     I was born with the chaos faction,      lived with chaos, and fought the divine. [19:03] T     If that all ended, would I be free? [19:06] T     Would it ever end? [19:07] T     Even if it did end,      and I was free, what would I...? [19:13] (Flashback) T     What would you do if you had freedom? [19:15] (Flashback) Girl     Hmm? [19:16] (Flashback) Girl     Be a maid! [19:18] (Flashback) T     A maid? [19:19] (Flashback) Girl     Yes. A maid. [19:21] (Flashback) Girl     I'd wear a cute maid outfit, [19:23] (Flashback) Girl     greet guests with my best smile,     fall in love with my master. [19:29] (Flashback) T     You'd just be enslaving yourself. [19:31] (Flashback) Girl     Yes! [19:32] (Flashback) Girl     But it'd be my choice. [19:34] (Flashback) Girl     I would have a choice. [19:36] (Flashback) Girl     If I had a choice, I think     my life would be different. [19:40] (Flashback) Girl     If I could choose my own life, [19:42] (Flashback) Girl     and my only two choices were becoming     a bandit or becoming a slave, then... [19:47] (Flashback) T     I see. [19:49] (Flashback) Girl     Yeah. [19:50] T     Thinking back on it, I had     never made my own choice, [19:54] T     and I thought that was fine. [19:57] T     There wasn't anyone I wanted to see anyway. [20:00] T     So I chatted with that girl     for a while after that. [20:05] (Flashback) Girl     I think I should be good now. [20:07] (Flashback) T     You're leaving? [20:09] (Flashback) Girl     Yeah. [20:10] (Flashback) Girl     I'm going to cross the mountains and     try heading to the next nation over. [20:14] (Flashback) Girl     I'm sure there'll be something there. [20:15] (Flashback) Girl     Oh, Miss Dragon, let me ride you. [20:18] (Flashback) T     Bug off! I'll never let a human ride me! [20:20] (Flashback) Girl     Cheapskate. [20:22] (Flashback) T     I'll die before I let a human ride me. [20:27] (Flashback) Girl     Well, later. [20:29] (Flashback) Girl     Thank you, Miss Dragon! [20:32] (Flashback) T     For what? [20:33] (Flashback) Girl     For being with me. [20:36] T     And so I parted ways with     that annoying human. [20:39] T     At least, that's how I should have felt. [20:41] T     Yet I felt a little sad... [20:45] T     and uncomfortable. [20:47] K     Then maybe that person had something     to do with why you're my maid now. [20:52] T     You're right. [20:54] T     It's rare of me to say this, but I     wouldn't mind seeing that human again. [20:59] K     I see. [21:00] T     Yes. [21:01] T     By the way, Tohru. [21:03] T     Yes?
