What's going on between you and Nana?
***SIGN*** What Connects Us
**[02:01] Subaru**
*What's... between us?*
**[02:04] Subaru**
*Between us...*
**[02:06] Subaru**
*The relations between people...*
**[02:08] Subaru**
*Connections...*
**[02:09] Subaru**
*Acquaintances, friends, siblings, family...*
**[02:13] Yugo**
Hey! Are you listening?
**[02:16] Subaru**
*Oh, crap! I wasn't listening!*
**[02:19] Nana**
Subaru-san, I'm so sorry!
**[02:23] Nana**
I know that was incredibly rude!
**[02:25] Yugo**
Sorry.
**[02:26] Subaru**
Uh, it's okay... Actually,
I'm not sure what's going on...
**[02:30] Yugo**
You came tumbling out
when I opened the door,
**[02:33] Yugo**
so I thought you must be some kind of freak.
**[02:36] Subaru**
*Freak...*
**[02:38] Nana**
You know I'd never let
anyone like that in here!
**[02:41] Yugo**
I don't know... You can be kind of spacey.
**[02:43] Nana**
Anyway, this is Subaru-san.
He's a customer at the pet shop!
**[02:47] Nana**
Apologize to him!
**[02:51] Yugo**
I'm very sorry.
**[02:52] Subaru**
Er, no... Really, it's fine...
**[02:55] Nana**
I really am sorry about that.
**[02:57] Nana**
This is Yugo.
**[02:59] Nana**
He's my younger brother.
**[03:01] Yugo**
I'm Okami Yugo. I'm in eleventh grade.
**[03:03] Subaru**
*Younger brother? And he's in high school?*
**[03:06] Subaru**
*He's huge...*
**[03:07] Nana**
Oh, right! The scissors!
**[03:09] Nana**
Wait right here, okay?
**[03:18] Subaru**
*What the heck am I doing?*
**[03:21] Subaru**
*I want to go home.*
**[03:36] Subaru**
You seem pretty used to him.
**[03:38] Yugo**
Yes, I visit fairly often.
**[03:41] Subaru**
*He doesn't seem to be a bad guy.*
**[03:43] Subaru**
*Wait, what made me come to that conclusion?*
**[03:47] Nana**
Sorry that took so long!
**[03:48] Nana**
I found the scissors!
**[03:50] Yugo**
Scissors?
**[03:51] Nana**
Yeah, my fluffy key chain got
caught on his cat's claw.
**[03:54] Nana**
Haru-chan, I'll get that
thing off of you now, okay?
**[03:59] Nana**
There we go.
**[04:01] Nana**
Okay, all done.
**[04:05] Subaru**
Sorry about that.
**[04:06] Nana**
No, I should apologize.
**[04:08] Nana**
I'll go put some tea on.
**[04:11] Yugo**
Your cat's name is Haru-san?
**[04:15] Subaru**
Yes.
**[04:15] Subaru**
*He used "-san"?*
**[04:17] Yugo**
Cool-looking cat.
**[04:21] Subaru**
*Cool?*
**[04:22] (Flashback) Hiroto**
What a scary face!
**[04:23] (Flashback) Hiroto**
You just look mean all the time, huh?
**[04:27] (Flashback) Kawase**
She's so cute.
**[04:29] Subaru**
*It's weird...*
**[04:31] Subaru**
* I never knew people could view*
* the same thing so differently.*
**[04:35] Subaru**
*I bet Kawase-san would be surprised.*
**[04:40] Kawase**
It's no use. I'm dying
to see Haru-chan again!
**[04:43] Kawase**
Oh, God! I wanna floof your fur so bad!
**[04:46] Kawase**
Haru-nyan!
**[04:47] Subaru**
*But, anyway...*
**[04:49] Subaru**
*I did what I came here for.*
**[04:51] Subaru**
*I should go home.*
**[04:55] Subaru**
* Isn't that... the magazine*
* that's publishing my works?*
***SIGN*** Novels Polaris
**[05:04] Yugo**
Oh, do you read *Polaris*, too, Subaru-san?
**[05:08] Subaru**
No... I...
**[05:10] Yugo**
You know, there's a novel in
here that has a cat in it.
**[05:14] Yugo**
The cat reminds me of Haru-san a bit.
**[05:17] Subaru**
*What the hell is going on right now?!*
**[05:19] Subaru**
*I can't! I have to leave right now!*
**[05:21] Nana**
Are you familiar with that novel
about the cat, Subaru-san?
**[05:24] Nana**
My brother's been really into it lately.
**[05:28] Nana**
The cat is actually an assassin!
**[05:31] Nana**
Isn't that unique?
**[05:33] Subaru**
* I can't believe they both*
* know about my work!*
**[05:37] Yugo**
How far have you gotten in it, Nana-chan?
**[05:39] Nana**
I'm, uh...
**[05:40] Subaru**
* Of course, I'm grateful*
* that they're reading it.*
**[05:44] Nana**
Oh, yeah! Where the letter
arrives at the lab...
**[05:45] Subaru**
*But this kind of situation...*
**[05:47] Yugo**
That's basically the very beginning!
**[05:48] Nana**
What? Really?
**[05:49] Subaru**
*is so hard for me to deal with!*
**[05:50] Yugo**
It was just last week. You're way behind.
**[05:53] Nana**
I'm sorry.
**[05:55] Nana**
When we get to talking about
this novel, we just can't stop.
**[05:58] Yugo**
Are you interested in novels, Subaru-san?
**[06:02] Subaru**
Um, well...
**[06:03] Yugo**
This one has a cat in it.
**[06:06] Yugo**
I recommend it!
**[06:09] Subaru**
*Recommending the books I love to others,*
**[06:12] Subaru**
*getting recommendations...*
**[06:13] Subaru**
*That's...*
**[06:15] Yugo**
And the protagonist tries to solve
every case without any help.
**[06:20] Yugo**
He's so cool.
**[06:22] Subaru**
*I've never experienced this before.*
**[06:25] Subaru**
Um, I...
**[06:28] Subaru**
should be going now.
**[06:31] Subaru**
Haru...
**[06:35] Subaru**
S-Sorry for the intrusion.
**[06:37] Nana**
H-Hey... Subaru-san!
**[06:46] Subaru**
*I ran away without thinking.*
**[06:49] Nana**
Subaru-san!
**[06:52] Subaru**
Okami-san...
**[06:54] Nana**
I'm so sorry for all that happened today!
**[06:56] Subaru**
Um... I'm also sorry for
leaving in such a hectic way.
**[07:00] Nana**
Not at all.
**[07:02] Nana**
I'm sorry about my brother.
**[07:04] Nana**
He's really not a bad kid at all,
**[07:06] Nana**
but when he's talking about things he
likes, he forgets everything else.
**[07:11] Subaru**
I know. I didn't misunderstand anything.
**[07:17] Nana**
Thank you.
**[07:19] Nana**
Um, if you'd like...
**[07:22] Nana**
Please come visit again sometime.
**[07:25] Nana**
And bring Haru-chan along.
**[07:32] Subaru**
*I never knew...*
**[07:34] Subaru**
*No, I never made an effort to learn...*
**[07:38] Subaru**
* that the works I'd written*
* were affecting people,*
**[07:42] Subaru**
* were affecting the worlds*
* they live in, so much.*
**[07:47] Subaru**
*I guess someone's wish really does reside*
**[07:52] Subaru**
*in every single one of them.*
**[08:01] Subaru**
*The nights have gotten pretty cold.*
**[08:05] Subaru**
*She's warm...*
**[08:08] Haru**
*Fate... Family...*
**[08:11] Haru**
*A place where you can feel safe...*
**[08:13] Haru**
*I don't really understand any of those,*
**[08:17] Haru**
* but I'm never going to let*
* this guy be alone again.*
**[08:26] Haru**
*Crap...*
**[08:27] Haru**
*This was another cat's territory...*
**[08:30] Haru**
* Nothing good comes of messing*
* with someone else's territory.*
**[08:35] Hachi**
*I'll introduce you! This is Roku-kun.*
**[08:37] Hachi**
* Roku-kun has been here forever,*
* and he knows all kinds of things!*
**[08:45] Roku**
*And who are you?*
**[08:46] Haru**
* I'm his older sister!*
* Thanks for taking care of my brother!*
**[08:50] Roku**
*Oh, you're the sister I've heard about?*
**[08:54] Haru**
*I'm doing this for my brother!*
**[08:56] Haru**
* Even if this is another cat's*
* territory, I can't back down!*
**[08:59] Roku**
*I see.*
**[09:02] Roku**
* You're still young, but the*
* look on your face says it all.*
**[09:06] Roku**
*You've been through a lot.*
**[09:08] Roku**
*I used to live outside, too, so I get it.*
**[09:12] Roku**
*But this is a place where you can feel safe.*
**[09:15] Haru**
*Safe?*
**[09:17] Hachi**
*Oh! Yu-kun's here!*
**[09:19] Haru**
*Huh?*
**[09:20] Hachi**
*Yu-kun!*
**[09:22] Hachi**
*Play with me!*
**[09:23] Haru**
*Wh-Who is this giant?!*
**[09:25] Haru**
* How can anyone feel safe here?!*
* It's clearly dangerous!*
**[09:29] Roku**
*Don't worry. He's not a bad guy.*
**[09:32] Haru**
*B-But there's no telling what he might do!*
**[09:34] Roku**
*Okay. Leave this to me.*
**[09:36] Haru**
*Huh?*
**[09:37] Roku**
*If anything happens...*
**[09:39] Roku**
*I'll protect both you and Hachi.*
**[09:52] Roku**
* W-Well? Now do you see*
* that he's not hostile?*
**[09:57] Haru**
*Well, I guess so...*
**[10:00] Haru**
* But why would you do that*
* for an intruder like me?*
**[10:03] Roku**
*Huh? You're Hachi's sister, aren't you?*
**[10:08] Roku**
*So you're my family, too.*
**[10:10] Haru**
*Family? There's that word again...*
**[10:13] Roku**
*You help each other through anything.*
**[10:16] Roku**
*You cry together and laugh together.*
**[10:18] Roku**
*That's what family is.*
**[10:21] Nana**
Haru-chan, I'll get that
thing off of you now, okay?
**[10:30] Nana**
There we go.
**[10:32] Nana**
Okay, all done.
**[10:34] Haru**
*It's easier to move my paw now...*
**[10:40] Haru**
*The giant's hand!*
**[10:47] Yugo**
How far have you gotten in it, Nana-chan?
**[10:49] Nana**
I'm, uh...
**[10:51] Nana**
Oh, yeah! Where the letter
arrives at the lab...
**[10:54] Yugo**
That's basically the very beginning!
**[10:56] Haru**
*This is... family?*
**[11:00] Subaru**
Haru...
**[11:01] Haru**
*Wh-What is it?*
**[11:05] Haru**
*Hey! What's going on?*
**[11:08] Subaru**
S-Sorry for the intrusion.
**[11:09] Hachi**
*Sis!*
**[11:11] Hachi**
*Wait! Where are you going?*
**[11:13] Hachi**
*Don't go!*
**[11:17] Haru**
*What do I do?*
**[11:19] Haru**
*But I...*
**[11:21] Haru**
*I can't leave him alone...*
**[11:24] Hachi**
*Sis...*
**[11:27] Roku**
*It's okay. She can just come over again.*
**[11:30] Hachi**
*Oh, yeah!*
**[11:31] Hachi**
*Sis! I'll see you soon!*
**[11:42] Hachi**
*Sis, where are you?*
**[11:46] Hachi**
*Sis!*
**[11:49] Haru**
*It's dark... I can't see anything...*
**[11:52] Haru**
*Is everyone here?*
**[11:53] Siblings**
*I'm here!*
**[11:54] Siblings**
*Sis, where are you?*
**[11:56] Haru**
*Wait!*
**[11:57] Haru**
*I think we can get out from there!*
**[12:02] Siblings**
*What's this place?*
**[12:06] Siblings**
*It's so big!*
**[12:07] Siblings**
* Yeah! I've never seen any*
* of this stuff before!*
**[12:11] Siblings**
*Look over there!*
**[12:12] Siblings**
*Someone big's coming!*
**[12:14] Siblings**
*I bet he'll give us food!*
**[12:16] Haru**
*Food?!*
**[12:19] All**
*Food! Food! Food!*
**[12:20] (Flashback) Guy**
What the heck?!
**[12:23] All**
*Food! Food!*
**[12:23] (Flashback) Guy**
I can't stand cats!
**[12:25] Siblings**
*Huh?*
**[12:25] Siblings**
*He didn't give us food.*
**[12:27] Haru**
*I wonder why—*
**[12:36] Haru**
*What was that thing?! What was it?!*
**[12:46] Haru**
*What is this place? I'm scared...*
**[12:50] Tora**
*Hey!*
**[12:53] Siblings**
*M-Mommy?*
**[12:55] Tora**
*Who are you calling your mommy?*
**[12:57] Tora**
* What I wanna know is,*
* what're you doing on my turf?*
**[13:00] Haru**
*Turf?*
**[13:01] Haru**
*I don't know why we're here.*
**[13:04] Haru**
*I don't even know where this place is.*
**[13:08] Tora**
*You're lost, huh?*
**[13:09] Tora**
*Looks like your mom's not around, either.*
**[13:12] Tora**
*Or...*
**[13:13] Siblings**
*Where's Mommy?*
**[13:14] Siblings**
*I wanna go home.*
**[13:16] Siblings**
*I'm scared, Sis!*
**[13:18] Haru**
*It's okay. Don't lose your nerve.*
**[13:21] Haru**
*I'm here with you. It's gonna be okay.*
**[13:27] Tora**
*You...*
**[13:28] Haru**
*Wh-What?*
**[13:29] Tora**
*Come with me if you wanna live.*
**[13:39] Haru**
*Well, we followed her, but what happens now?*
**[13:43] Kuro**
*Yo, Tora!*
**[13:46] Kuro**
*Who are all those little brats?*
**[13:48] Kuro**
*We don't have enough food to spare for them.*
**[13:51] Tora**
* Shut it, Kuro.*
* No one's gonna take your food.*
**[13:55] Haru**
*His eye...*
**[14:00] Tora**
*Now, listen.*
**[14:02] Tora**
*If you wanna survive in this world,*
**[14:04] Tora**
* you need to learn how to find food*
* and how to defend yourselves.*
**[14:09] Tora**
*You can't let your guard down, ever.*
**[14:13] Tora**
* You need to be prepared*
* to fight at any time.*
**[14:17] Tora**
*You...*
**[14:19] Tora**
*You're the biggest of the lot, huh?*
**[14:21] Haru**
*Y-Yeah...*
**[14:22] Tora**
*Protect those little ones.*
**[14:26] Tora**
*Small ones are weak.*
**[14:31] Haru**
*Hey, Tora, why are you...*
**[14:33] Tora**
*You will call me* Miz *Tora!*
**[14:36] Haru**
*Miz Tora, why did you help all of us?*
**[14:43] Tora**
*Who knows?*
**[14:45] Haru**
* After that, Miz Tora taught*
* us lots of things.*
**[14:50] Haru**
*How to run fast,*
**[14:52] Haru**
*how to find food...*
**[14:55] Tora**
*Louder!*
**[14:55] Haru**
* And that if you don't eat for*
* a long time, you'll die.*
**[14:57] Tora**
*Make sure you repay any favors done to you!*
**[14:59] Haru**
*She taught us about this world...*
**[15:01] Haru**
*and about our fate.*
**[15:05] Haru**
*It was too complicated for me to understand,*
**[15:09] Haru**
*but I know it was really important.*
**[15:14] Haru**
*I'm gonna find lots of food today!*
**[15:19] Haru**
* There's a yummy smell*
* coming from other there!*
**[15:22] Kuro**
*Hold it!*
**[15:25] Kuro**
*Come this way!*
**[15:26] Haru**
*Kuro-san?*
**[15:27] Haru**
*Why? I'm sure there's food over—*
**[15:30] Kuro**
*Look up.*
**[15:32] Haru**
*What is that black thing?*
**[15:35] Haru**
*It's so big... and kinda scary...*
**[15:39] Kuro**
*Those sharp beaks and talons*
**[15:42] Kuro**
*were more than Tora and I could handle.*
**[15:49] Kuro**
*Get it?*
**[15:51] Kuro**
*Once you lose your life, it's all over.*
**[15:53] Kuro**
*So take care of it.*
**[15:55] Haru**
* I always thought Kuro-san*
* was scary and mean...*
**[16:02] Kuro**
*Okay, they're gone.*
**[16:04] Kuro**
*Don't go near that place again.*
**[16:10] Haru**
*Kuro-san...*
**[16:12] Haru**
*Thank you for saving me.*
**[16:17] Kuro**
*No big deal.*
**[16:19] Haru**
* There's so much I don't*
* know about this world.*
**[16:23] Haru**
*So much...*
**[16:26] Siblings**
*Hey, Sis!*
**[16:28] Siblings**
* There's a yummy smell*
* coming from other there!*
**[16:30] Haru**
*Yeah...*
**[16:32] Haru**
*But we can't go straight over there.*
**[16:35] Haru**
* We need to figure out whether*
* they're good humans or bad humans.*
**[16:38] Siblings**
*Okay!*
**[16:39] Siblings**
*But, Sis...*
**[16:40] Siblings**
*They already went.*
**[16:42] Haru**
*Huh?*
**[16:43] Lady**
*Oh, they don't have collars.*
**[16:45] Kid**
*They're cute!*
**[16:46] Guy**
*Think they're strays?*
**[16:47] Haru**
*Those fools!*
**[16:49] Tora**
*What's the matter?*
**[16:51] Haru**
*Miz Tora, those two just...*
**[16:56] Tora**
* Meeting a wonderful human changes*
* your fate in a big way.*
**[17:01] Tora**
*Or so I've heard.*
**[17:03] Haru**
*Fate?*
**[17:04] Tora**
*Yeah. And they just met them...*
**[17:08] Tora**
*Their family.*
**[17:13] Haru**
*Family?*
**[17:15] Haru**
*Will I meet a family someday, too?*
**[17:30] Haru**
*Are you okay?*
**[17:31] Siblings**
*Yeah!*
**[17:35] Kuro**
*Tora!*
**[17:35] Tora**
*On it!*
**[17:38] Haru**
*Miz Tora...*
**[17:39] Tora**
*You kids just keep running!*
**[17:42] Tora**
*Got that?!*
**[17:43] Haru**
*But...*
**[17:45] Tora**
*Go!*
**[17:47] Haru**
*Let's go!*
**[17:49] Siblings**
*Sis?*
**[17:52] Haru**
*Miz Tora... Kuro-san...*
**[17:58] Siblings**
*Hey, where are we going?*
**[18:00] Siblings**
*Where are the others?*
**[18:01] Haru**
*It's okay.*
**[18:04] Haru**
*Don't lose your nerve.*
**[18:07] Haru**
*I have to keep it together.*
**[18:09] Haru**
*I have to...*
**[18:11] Haru**
*It's going to be okay.*
**[18:14] Siblings**
*Sis...*
**[18:17] Siblings**
*I'm hungry.*
**[18:19] Siblings**
*Me, too.*
**[18:21] Haru**
*I have to look for food.*
**[18:24] Haru**
* But if they go with me and*
* we run into danger again...*
**[18:29] Haru**
*Let me take care of the food. You wait here.*
**[18:32] Siblings**
*No! Don't go!*
**[18:34] Siblings**
*I'll go with you!*
**[18:36] Haru**
*Don't worry. I'll be back soon.*
**[18:39] Siblings**
*Sis...*
**[18:41] Siblings**
*Sis...*
**[18:42] Siblings**
*Be careful, okay?*

**[18:58] Haru**
*I have to feed this to them, quick...*
**[19:04] Haru**
*What?*
**[19:12] Haru**
*What's... wrong?*
**[19:21] Haru**
*Why...*
**[19:24] Haru**

**[19:42] Haru**
*Where is he?*
**[19:46] Haru**
*I looked all over,*
**[19:48] Haru**

*Sis!*
**[20:09] Hachi**
*I'll see you soon!*
**[20:13] Haru**
*I can see him again.*
**[20:14] Haru**
* I never thought the day would*
* come when I'd believe that.*
**[20:18] Haru**
*Did he find his "fate"?*

*You help each other through anything.*
**[20:24] Roku**
*You cry together and laugh together.*
**[20:27] Roku**
*That's what family is.*
**[20:30] Haru**
*How can I understand what that means?*
**[20:37] Haru**
*If I stay with him...*
**[20:40] Haru**
*maybe I'll understand someday.*
