    NADEMONOGATARI EPISODE ZERO
    NADEKO DRAW, PART FIVE
    OFF SEASON BROADCAST NUMBER SIX
[04:06] ---
    Revealing this trick.
[04:06] OS
    MY GRAND PLAN THAT I THOUGHT OF -
    LARGE SCALE OPERATION TO DEFEAT GOD NADEKO
[04:08] ---
    Basically, by putting a hundred 'Loomer Nadekos
    as shikigami all over the floor,

[04:14] ---
    God Nadeko created a "wall of Nadekos."
[04:16] OS
    LOOMER LOOMER LOOMER
[04:17] ---
    And if that's the case, I thought
    we can mingle among those 100.

[04:22] ---
    I drew bloomers and gymnasium shoes
    and made it three-dimensional.

[04:25] OS
    BLOOMERS
    GYMNASIUM SHOES
    TOTAL: ¥0
[04:27] ---
    Just like the material creation ability
    that ex-Heart-under-blade has.
[04:31] ---
    Well, I was able to seal a chisel,
    which wasn't a shikigami, into paper.

[04:36] ---
    So I simply thought
    I could do the reverse as well.

[04:40] OS
    PLAN A
[04:40] ---
    The idea of mingling among
    the herd of 'Loomer Nadekos

[04:44] ---
    wasn't that bad of an idea, I thought.
[04:44] OS
    LOOMER LOOMER LOOMER
[04:47] ---
    But to pull that plan off,
    we would need a decoy plan.

[04:48] OS
    LOOMER LOOMER LOOMER
    GOD
[04:53] ---
    That's why I reactivated Wrath Nadeko
    after changing her design.

[04:53] OS
    PLAN B
[04:58] ---
    Right after that, I did one more.
[05:00] ---
    Current Nadeko as a character was drawn
    and turned three-dimensional.

[05:04] ---
    That's right. I activated two shikigami at once.
[05:08] ---
    Wrath Nadeko
    dressed as Current Nadeko,

[05:10] ---
    and a shikigami,
    Current Nadeko (shikigami version).

[05:14] ---
    I had them running side-by-side
    towards God Nadeko.

[05:18] ---
    I asked Ononoki to create a straight path for that
    to happen by using her Unlimited Rulebook.

[05:21] OS
    UNLIMITED RULEBOOK
[05:24] ---
    But, looking at the results, things didn't go
    quite the way I had thought.

[05:29] ---
    It was no good at all.
[05:31] ---
    In the end, I am how I am now because
    that's what I used to be like.

[05:36] ---
    I think you're clearly different
    from God Nadeko, though.
[05:41] ---
    Maybe "different" is not the right word,
    so I should say you "changed."
[05:45] ---
    You were the one who was most at risk here.
    There's no doubt about that.
[05:50] ---
    All of them were fabricated shikigami.
[05:52] ---
    But you, a living being, put yourself
    into the most dangerous situation.
[05:56] ---
    That alone is enough reason for me
    to appreciate you.
[06:00] ---
    You're completely different from God Nadeko,
    who stayed in a safe spot.
[06:04] ---
    You're no longer who you used to be.
[06:09] ---
    I've never received such words
    that made me feel so happy.

[06:14] ---
    But at the same time,
    those were very saddening words.

[06:20] ---
    Well, if you are to commemorate
    the shikigami who stood in for you,
[06:24] ---
    why don't you take this experience, those emotions,
    and draw them so you can preserve it?
[06:31] ---
    Draw them...
[06:34] ---
    ...to preserve them, huh?
[06:37] ---
    Draw them, and preserve them
    as my work, and as a memory.

[06:42] ---
    Anyway, Nade-koh...

[06:45] ---
    This time for sure, "clearing people out
[06:47] ---
    due to bashfulness around them"
    is gone from this building.
[06:50] ---
    You should probably leave this area.
[06:53] ---
    I'll deal with the aftermath here.
    I'm a specialist, after all.
[06:58] ---
    The real labor from this point on
    is a realm only for the pros.
[07:02] ---
    Simply put, your presence
    is no longer necessary.
[07:07] ---
    That's all the more reason
[07:08] ---
    for you to go to the place
    where you're needed, Nade-koh.
[07:12] ---
    Nadeko Sengoku. There's a place where
    you need to go right now, isn't there?
[07:19] ---
    Yes, there is.
[07:21] OS

[07:31] OS
    BOOK FAIR
[07:39] ---
    Hello, Sengoku.
[07:41] ---
    Care for a ride?
[07:45] ---
    Let's see, I'm headed to...
[07:47] ---
    Don't worry, I know where to go.
[07:50] ---
    It's not like I chased around
[07:52] ---
    a middle school girl in only bloomers
    for nothing since I parted ways with you.
[07:58] ---
    Mr. Ougi.
[08:00] ---
    Mr. Ougi, what do you know?
[08:03] ---
    I don't know anything.
[08:06] ---
    It's what you know, Sengoku.
[08:18] ---
    Mr. Meme Oshino once called me a "victim."
[08:26] ---
    I think that I really was one.
[08:30] ---
    But it's also true that it was easier for me
    to live as a "victim" as well.
[08:36] ---
    Loved, begrudged, hated, cursed.
[08:42] ---
    I was passive through all of it.
    I didn't cause any of those actions.

[08:47] ---
    But can I say that back then, I didn't think about
    wanting to be loved by others?
[08:54] ---
    Can I say that I never did anything
    for someone to hold a grudge against me?
[08:58] ---
    Can I say that I never did anything
    to be hated?
[09:02] ---
    Can I say that I never did anything
    to be cursed?
[09:09] ---
    I have absolutely no clue
    what you're talking about.
[09:13] ---
    What? Do you want to say that
    from the other side, you're the root cause?
[09:18] ---
    Is that logic similar to how a bullied person
    is also in the wrong?
[09:20] ---
    I won't quite put it that way.
[09:22] ---
    I think what the other side did
    was the worst thing ever.

[09:26] ---
    But for those who loved me, and my friends...
    I didn't stop them from becoming the worst.
[09:36] ---
    I cared too much about myself,
    and didn't do that.

[09:40] ---
    By continuing to be the victim forever,
    I made everyone around me the wrongdoers.

[09:46] ---
    You're implying a lot there.
[09:48] ---
    But what does that have to do
    with things now?
[09:51] ---
    They're all stories from the past, aren't they?
[09:55] ---
    All of this is about the present.
[09:57] ---
    Among the four shikigami I created,
[10:00] ---
    I took the Nadeko Sengoku
    who was the "victim" so to say
[10:04] ---
    and looked down on Meek Nadeko
    as someone who was lesser.
[10:09] ---
    That's why I had rigidly assumed
[10:12] ---
    that she was being used by the other
    three Nadeko Sengokus as they pleased.

[10:18] OS
    VICTIM
[10:19] ---
    I assumed it all happened
    because she was the "victim."

[10:23] ---
    Of the four, Meek Nadeko
    was the weakest.
[10:27] ---
    But because she was weak,
[10:29] ---
    she had no hesitation
    in taking advantage of the stronger ones.
[10:34] ---
    Just like how I left it to other people
    on how to live my life.

[10:39] ---
    Meek Nadeko took fighting and even fleeing,
    and left it to the other three.

[10:46] ---
    Are you saying Meek Nadeko
    was the true mastermind here?
[10:50] ---
    But even if that was the case,
[10:52] ---
    Meek Nadeko was crushed
    by the bookcase and flattened, right?
[10:57] ---
    The 'Chool Nadeko crushed by the bookshelf
    wasn't necessarily the main body of Meek Nadeko.
[11:03] ---
    Especially if that 'Chool Nadeko
[11:04] ---
    was one of the shikigami
    that God Nadeko had mass-produced.
[11:09] ---
    If it was?
[11:10] ---
    What did Meek Nadeko want to do,
[11:12] ---
    by twisting all the other Nadeko Sengokus,
    including you, around her finger?
[11:17] ---
    Meek Nadeko wanted to buy some time.
[11:23] ---
    She wanted to buy some time
    to do what she really wanted to do.
[11:28] ---
    While Flirty Nadeko was standing out...
[11:30] ---
    While Wrath Nadeko was waiting to ambush...
[11:33] ---
    She, and only she...
[11:36] ---
    She was the only one who was trying to do
    what she wanted to do.
[11:41] ---
    But Mr. Ougi, you know
    the truth already, don't you?
[11:45] ---
    What Meek Nadeko wanted to do,
    and what she still wants to do right now.
[11:50] ---
    Since you're aware of my destination...
[11:52] OS
    ONE WAY
[11:54] ---
    Right.
[11:55] ---
    Unfortunately, I can't say that's something
    you can write home about.
[12:00] ---
    Yes.
[12:01] ---
    That's why I'm going to go stop her.
[12:03] ---
    If I don't, this story will not end.
[12:12] ---
    Well, we're here.
[12:14] ---
    What you wanted to do last year.
[12:15] OS
    TAMIKURA-SOU
[12:16] ---
    What you left undone last year would be...
[12:21] ---
    to kill off Senjyogahara-senpai,
    who was your romantic rival, right?
[12:30] ---
    How could you be so wrong, huh?!
[12:33] ---
    How can you have such a knowing look
[12:34] ---
    and arrive so gallantly when
    you're so slow to understand!?
[12:37] ---
    Go to Naoetsu High right now!
[12:40] ---
    To the front gate of Naoetsu High School!
[12:44] OS
    IN FRONT OF NAOETSU HIGH SCHOOL
[12:58] ---
    You're wasting your time,
    Meek Nadeko.
[13:05] ---
    It's useless.
[13:07] ---
    That guy is not here anymore.
[13:13] ---
    Nobody stays as an eighth grader forever.
[13:17] ---
    They can't be 14 years old forever.
[13:20] ---
    It's useless to be waiting here.
[13:28] ---
    Waiting here won't do you any good.
[13:32] ---
    It wasn't good for me.
[13:35] ---
    It was very, terribly bad.
[13:37] ---
    Nobody became happy
    even if I kept waiting.

[13:41] ---
    Even if I kept pining,
    it only hurt everyone.

[13:45] ---
    That's why you can't be here.
[13:49] ---
    That's why I can't be here.
[13:53] ---
    You'd know something like that
    from the beginning, won't you?
[13:58] ---
    I mean, because I understood it.
[14:04] ---
    I'm sorry.
[14:06] ---
    It was my fault.
[14:10] ---
    I'm sorry.
[14:18] ---
    Hey, listen up.
[14:19] ---
    Nobody can stay in the same place forever.
[14:23] ---
    Not in eighth grade.
[14:25] ---
    Not in twelfth grade.
[14:27] ---
    Not as a god.
[14:28] ---
    Not as a vampire.
[14:29] ---
    If you did something like that,
    everyone would be gone.
[14:33] ---
    Even if you waited forever, a prince
    won't come riding a white horse.
[14:38] ---
    You won't get a glass slipper
    delivered to you.
[14:40] ---
    Even if you pretended to be sound asleep,
    nobody would wake you up with a kiss.
[14:45] ---
    That's why you can't wait around
    in a place like this forever.
[14:49] ---
    Let's go back
    to where everyone else is.
[14:51] ---
    Everyone is waiting for you.
[14:56] ---
    Flirty Nadeko, Wrath Nadeko,
    and God Nadeko, too.

[15:01] ---
    They're all waiting for you
    to take action on your own.

[15:11] ---
    Then....
[15:14] ---
    Then, you don't love him anymore?
[15:20] ---
    I love him so much.
[15:22] ---
    It's so fun just to wait for him.
[15:25] ---
    I'm so happy just pining for him.
[15:28] ---
    I don't need anything else.
[15:30] OS
    BIG BROTHER KOYOMI
[15:31] ---
    Still, you don't love him anymore?
[15:34] ---
    You can't remember anymore?
[15:37] ---
    Did you get bored? Did you forget?
    Does it not matter to you anymore?
[15:42] ---
    Is it gone?
[15:44] ---
    Is the future that boring?
[15:47] ---
    Did I turn into that kind of an adult?
[15:56] ---
    Meek Nadeko, I...
[16:02] ---
    I promise you.
[16:05] ---
    I will fall in love with someone again.
    I promise you.
[16:10] ---
    I will not stop loving people.
[16:16] ---
    I will not forget that waiting was so fun,
    and that I was happy just pining for him.
[16:23] ---
    I will definitely not turn
    your heartbreak into a failure.
[16:28] ---
    I'll chase my dreams, and I won't
    learn my lesson and I'll fall in love again.
[16:33] ---
    I'll remind myself of that feeling
    of not wanting anything else.
[16:38] ---
    I will make sure to become the person
    who you wanted me to become.
[16:42] ---
    I will be a person
    who won't disappoint others.
[16:46] ---
    So...
[16:48] ---
    please stop waiting.
[16:54] ---
    Let's head to the future.
[17:09] ---
    Okay.
[17:22] ---
    I'll always be with you, forever.
[17:28] ---
    Your hardships.
[17:31] ---
    Your pain.
[17:33] ---
    Your cute heartbreak.
[17:36] ---
    I'll turn them all
    into an interesting manga.

[17:40] ---
    I'll turn it into a story
    that sparks joy in people's hearts.

[17:53] ---
    Nadeko Sengoku, 15 years old.
[17:57] ---
    Still developing, still growing,
    still straying off course.

[18:01] ---
    Still inexperienced and unskilled.
[18:08] ---
    I don't think I'll be able to become
    an adult for quite a while.

[18:12] ---
    But on this day,
    I grew up just a little bit.

[18:19] ---
    UNHAPPY?
    A troubled human child
[18:20] ---
    UNLUCKY?
    For the inhumane
[18:22] ---
    BE HAPPY!
    Aim timelessly
[18:24] ---
    Because you're alive
[18:25] ---
    A past that you looked away from too
[18:27] ---
    A boring future too

[18:30] ---

[18:35] ---
    BE HAPPY!
[18:37] ---
    UNDEAD
[18:45] ---
    Hey, why
[18:47] ---
    Do I somehow feel like I'm fighting?
[18:49] ---
    I can't touch and don't want to touch
[18:50] ---
    Myself, myself, myself,
    and myself from the past
[18:52] ---
    I've been dead for a long time now
[18:54] ---
    I fight with a transparent ghost
[18:55] ---
    Deep in a childish and painful memory
[18:58] ---
    Disappointed? It's gone
[19:00] ---
    Oh? You like that better? That's ironic
[19:02] ---
    Am I, as I am now, what's transparent?
[19:06] ---
    Nonsense
    A label that doesn't disappear
[19:07] ---
    Yes! It's basically a complex
[19:09] ---
    You seem to be possessed
[19:11] ---
    The old me
[19:13] ---
    That's wrapped up and
    won't leave
[19:18] ---
    UNDEAD
[19:18] ---
    I'm not dead yet
[19:19] ---
    A chain of you and you
[19:21] ---
    To be alive is to keep changing
[19:25] ---
    Don't be satisfied
    With unhappiness
[19:29] ---
    You're a coward if you don't try to be happy
[19:33] ---
    This world and this world are
    A strange, strange fantasy
[19:35] ---
    Will a demon appear next or will a snake?
[19:39] ---
    The story finally begins after meeting
[19:42] ---
    Is it a human or monster?
[19:44] ---
    Returning to the subject at hand
    Peace, peace
[19:50] ---
    This is what you'd call an epilogue,
    as well as a prologue.

[19:53] ---
    Talk of the future
    that will someday become a memory.

[19:57] ---
    I don't know your circumstances
    but for starters, I covered up for you
[20:01] ---
    regarding the front door and the phone line
    that was yanked out.
[20:06] ---
    "I'm pretty sure my best friend Nadeko
[20:08] ---
    barged in while we were gone
    and did all sorts of bad things,
[20:13] ---
    but I'm sure she had no ill will
    so please forgive her."
[20:16] ---
    That's what I told them.
[20:18] ---
    She basically didn't cover for me at all.
[20:26] OS
    SHE FELL ASLEEP
[20:27] OS
    SHE'S WAY TOO CAREFREE
[20:32] ---
    Oh, don't look at her
    with such disdain.
[20:39] ---
    Though imperfect,
    this is the little sister of my master.
[20:43] ---
    As a vampire, an apparition of blood,
[20:46] ---
    it's possible to traverse through
    her shadows if related by blood.
[20:49] ---
    Though, this is illogical
    and puts reason into hiding,
[20:53] ---
    and it causes much fatigue
    to the shadow's owner.
[20:56] ---
    So as I said,
    don't look at her with disdain.

[21:11] ---
    I thought about eating these
    together with you.
[21:14] ---
    I hear that you have gained a talent to turn
    what you draw into a three-dimensional object.
[21:19] ---
    So can you try to draw these and
    make more of them as an experiment?

    with precision instruments next?
[21:52] ---
    Experiment?
[21:54] ---
    Yes. What continued from there
    were experiments.

[21:59] ---
    It seems that Shinobu, in pretending
    to be experimenting with me,

[22:02] ---
    she was lecturing me on how to use
    this special ability. I caught on midway.

[22:17] ---
    As for how to use the shikigami,
    there's nothing I can say about that.
[22:22] ---
    I've made minions twice
    and failed both times, after all.
[22:28] ---
    U-Um, Shinobu?
[22:30] ---
    Huh? What is it?
[22:37] ---
    Do you still think
    that I just happened to be cute?
[22:47] ---
    "Blank stare."
[22:49] ---
    What, who in the world said that to you?
[22:53] ---
    There are people out there
    who can be so heartless.
[22:58] OS
    I SOMEHOW FELT DEFLATED
[22:59] OS
    AND SO SIMPLY
[23:00] OS
    I FELT LIKE MY CURSE HAD BEEN LIFTED
[23:06] ---
    If there's another fool who says
    such stupid things, bring that one to me.
[23:11] ---
    Let me guarantee you this.
[23:14] ---
    I am the king of apparitions
    who has lived 600 years.
[23:16] ---
    I've been called the iron-blooded,
    hot-blooded, cold-blooded vampire.
[23:19] OS
    OTORI - KOI
[23:21] ---
    You've killed me several thousand times,
[23:23] ---
    then voluntarily abdicated
    the seat of god that held such power.
[23:26] ---
    You rid yourself of such immense power
    and decided to become a human again
[23:30] ---
    to live a grand life to this day
    like you're doing now.
[23:33] ---
    There's no way that you
    just happened to be cute.
[23:36] ---
    The greatest hate springs from
    the greatest love, you know?
[23:40] ---
    Hate...
[23:41] ---
    Indeed. I don't know if that's a good thing
    or not, but someone like you...
[23:46] ---
    Even if you're reincarnated a hundred times,
    I'm sure you'll be a hateful individual.
[23:57] ---
    Shinobu, you really do say
    devastating things.

[24:01] ---
    In the end, Tsukihi napped until evening,
    and went home after eating dinner with us.

[24:08] ---
    Yeah! Peace, peace.
[24:14] ---
    Nade-koh.
[24:15] ---
    I brought you some good news today.
[24:19] ---
    When I reported your adventures
    this time around,
[24:22] ---
    Ms. Gaen expressed quite
    an interest in your special ability.
[24:26] ---
    She said she has a job that
    she'd definitely like your help with.
[24:29] ---
    J-Job?
[24:30] ---
    Right. She said that
    depending on the outcome,
[24:33] ---
    she might want you to periodically
    help her with her job.
[24:38] ---
    That's just how much value
    Ms. Gaen seems to see in you.
[24:42] ---
    H-Hold on a second.
[24:43] ---
    Don't get me wrong.
[24:43] OS
    LOSE
[24:45] ---
    Ms. Gaen didn't appraise you
    for your skills as a shikigami user.
[24:49] ---
    She put value in your calmness
    when dealing with trouble.
[24:53] OS
    LOSE
[24:54] ---
    Four shikigami ran out of control,
    but you collected them back in the same day.
[24:59] ---
    You could say your competence
    stands out more than any genius would.
[25:03] ---
    Is that why you made me
    come up with the plan, Ononoki?
[25:08] ---
    That's right, Nade-koh.
[25:10] ---
    As a professional specialist,
[25:12] ---
    and as a strict, unsentimental,
    business-like shikigami,
[25:17] ---
    for the prosperity of our industry,
    and so that I could take it easy,
[25:20] ---
    I was just doing my job
    to unearth new talent.
[25:25] ---
    Now you see why I was so kind
    to someone like you, right?
[25:31] ---
    Yes, I get it.
[25:34] ---
    Ononoki is a very bad liar.
[25:37] OS
    WINNER
[25:39] ---
    You're still a minor, so Ms. Gaen
    won't pass on any reckless jobs to you.
[25:44] ---
    And of course, you can still strive
    to become a manga artist.
[25:49] ---
    The time constraints will vary,
    but think of it as gathering material.
[25:54] ---
    Wouldn't it be good
    to peek into the mystical world?
[25:57] ---
    I can guarantee you'll make enough
    so you can live on your own.
[26:01] ---
    I didn't think that this kind of punch line
    would be waiting for me.

[26:04] ---
    I never thought it would be like this
    when a snake entwined and possessed me.

[26:07] OS
    OPHIUCHUS
[26:09] ---
    In the past, I've sought glass slippers
    that were beyond my means,

[26:13] ---
    and I've been told that for someone who is always
    looking down, I'm neglectful of my own feet.

[26:19] ---
    But it looks like I'll be wearing two hats.
    One as a manga artist, and one as a specialist.

[26:27] ---
    Perhaps this is superfluous as well?
