[00:04] Sumireko
    Oh! Looks like she's here!
[00:10] Nodoka
    Good day to you!
[00:12] Sumireko
    Morning.
[00:15] Nodoka
    Is this really enough to repay you?
[00:18] Adashino
    Yes. It's just what I need.
[00:20] Sumireko
    Oto-chan already went on ahead.
[00:23] Nodoka
    Really? Then I'll go catch up to her!
[00:29] Sumireko
    Is that burned-out device a cursed object?
[00:32] Adashino
    It seems that Yorumun's water and
    Uname-sensei's fire turned it into one.
[00:37] Sumireko
    Huh. Will you be able to trade it for the
    all-important ticket to your destination?
[00:42] Adashino
    That's the tricky part.
[00:44] Sumireko
    Is it? I'd think that a garei
    would be pretty rare.
[00:50] Adashino
    But it might not be.
[00:52] Adashino
    Manga, anime, games, music, theater,
    movies and TV dramas, novels—
[00:59] Adashino
    works that creators whittle down
    their own lives to make...
[01:02] Adashino
    I think there are more of them
    now than there were before.
[01:05] Adashino
    They might be waiting somewhere, even now,
    for the day they are remembered.
[01:10] Sumireko
    That's true.
[01:12] Sumireko
    Which means the garei of my work
    must be somewhere out there, too!
[01:16] Adashino
    Write your new novel before thinking
    about stuff like that, Eyebrows.
[01:19] Sumireko
    That's just mean.
[01:23] Sumireko
    About that...
[01:24] Sumireko
    Ever since I started getting caught up
    in all these incidents with you,
[01:28] Sumireko
    my pen has been flying!
[01:30] Adashino
    Has it? This is the first I've heard of that.
[01:35] Sumireko
    Remember that promise you made to read it?
    You might have to make good on that soon.

[03:17] Sumireko
    Summer's right around the corner.
[03:24] Sumireko
    Do you like summer?
[03:27] Sumireko
    I'm quite partial to it.
[03:29] Sumireko
    There's nothing better than an ice-cold beer
    after working up a sweat outdoors!
[03:41] Sumireko
    Ta-da! I have an announcement!
[03:44] Sumireko
    I have never once worn a swimsuit!
[03:48] Adashino
    Huh? Not once? Not even when
    you were a kid? For real?
[03:52] Sumireko
    When we had swim class at school,
    I always skipped because I didn't feel well,
[03:56] Sumireko
    and I've never once been to the
    beach or a pool with friends.
[04:00] Sumireko
    And of course, I can't swim!
[04:03] Adashino
    You've never been to the beach
    or a pool with friends?
[04:07] Adashino
    That's just so sad.
[04:09] Sumireko
    Reacting only to that part
    is against the rules.
[04:12] Adashino
    So people with no swimsuit
    experience really do exist.
[04:15] Sumireko
    Of course they do. It's not that big a deal.
[04:17] Sumireko
    Adashino-kun, why don't we go to
    the beach with Oto-chan one day?
[04:23] Adashino
    Of course! It would be my pleasure!
[04:26] Adashino
    In that case, I'll pick out
    your very first swimsuit.
[04:31] Sumireko
    No, thank you.
[04:33] Adashino
    A cow-print or side-tie bikini would be great.
[04:37] Adashino
    Actually, a sporty one-piece
    might look even better.
[04:41] Adashino
    Now I'm getting excited!
[04:53] Sumireko
    I won't be wearing any of those. Understand?
[04:55] Adashino
    No, I'll be sure to choose one that suits you.
[04:58] Adashino
    I haven't any ulterior motives at all.
[05:06] Sumireko
    Huh? You're the cat that
    paid me a visit, aren't you?
SIGN    Number Withheld
[05:24] Adashino
    Hello? Is that you, old man?
[05:27] Old Man
    I'm telling you this just in case.
    A cat will be coming your way.
[05:32] Old Man
    She may look like a young girl,
    but don't underestimate her.
[05:35] Old Man
    She means to kill you.
[05:38] Adashino
    Huh?
[05:41] Sumireko
    There's someone on top of the
    bridge pylon! It looks like a girl!
[05:45] Adashino
    A girl?
[05:49] Sumireko
    My eyes aren't playing tricks on me, right?
[05:54] Sumireko
    Cat ears?
[06:01] Cat Sovereign
    Nice to meet you, Disappearances-kun.
[06:05] Adashino
    Who are you?
[06:06] Cat Sovereign
    I'm the one who manages
    the Curiosities around here.
[06:11] Cat Sovereign
    You may call me the Cat Sovereign.
[06:14] Sumireko
    Come on, now...
[06:25] Sumireko
    Adashino-kun!
[06:30] Cat Sovereign
    I'll be taking this, meow.
[06:36] Cat Sovereign
    You always take the Curiosities somewhere
    and do away with 'em, right?
[06:40] Cat Sovereign
    I can't have that. Stop it, okay?
[06:43] Cat Sovereign
    Or if you prefer... You can die.
[06:55] Sumireko
    Stop this!
[06:56] Cat Sovereign
    So you're the Bearer of Youth?
[06:58] Cat Sovereign
    Don't interfere, meow!
[07:00] Sumireko
    What about you?
[07:01] Sumireko
    What do you have against Adashino-kun?
[07:04] Cat Sovereign
    All he does is get in my way.
[07:07] Cat Sovereign
    What don't I have against him?
[07:08] Sumireko
    But starting a fight out
    of nowhere isn't right!
[07:14] Cat Sovereign
    Knock that Bearer of Youth down
    until she can't get up again!
[07:17] Cat Sovereign
    Huh? What is it?
[07:29] Cat Sovereign
    What? You owe the Bearer of Youth a debt
    of gratitude for a night's food and rest,
[07:33] Cat Sovereign
    so you don't want to bully her?
[07:37] Cat Sovereign
    Tch! I guess we'll leave it at that for today.
[07:47] Adashino
    Hello?
[07:48] Old Man
    It seems she's something like the boss
    of the Curiosities in that area.
[07:52] Old Man
    She hates you, but you can
    just leave her alone for now.
[07:56] Adashino
    Seriously, where is he watching from?
[08:01] Sumireko
    Here.
[08:03] Adashino
    Thank you.
[08:04] Sumireko
    It's important to you, right?
[08:07] Adashino
    I'm sorry for being so weak.
[08:18] Adashino
    Well, here's where we part ways for today.
[08:20] Sumireko
    Okay. I hope you can get the ticket you need.
[08:23] Adashino
    Me, too.
[08:25] Sumireko
    You seem a little down.
[08:27] Adashino
    Only because you won't let me
    pick out a swimsuit for you.
[08:31] Sumireko
    When you ask the impossible,
    don't be disappointed with the answer.
[08:34] Sumireko
    I'll see you tomorrow at the bookstore.
[08:36] Adashino
    Right.
[08:47] Sumireko
    How did Yorumun become self-aware?
    And how many meters long was she?
[09:04] (Flashback) Oto
    Surprise.
SIGN    KISARAGI
[09:15] Conductor
    My, my! An electronic device
    with a garei sealed inside.
[09:20] Conductor
    There has been a slight
    increase in those lately.
[09:23] Adashino; telepathy
    Will this do?
[09:24] Conductor
    It seems that the Curiosity's data hasn't
    been saved within this cursed object.
[09:31] Conductor
    I'd say it would be best
    not to get your hopes up.
[09:35] Adashino; telepathy
    I see.
[09:37] Conductor
    However, if by chance...
[09:56] Oto
    Ren-nii!
[10:20] umpire
    Strike!
[10:32] Shizuku
    Really? You won't be around
    during summer vacation?
[10:36] Oto
    No, so I won't be able to
    come here. I'm very sorry.
[10:39] Shizuku
    You're wearing the clothes I bought you.
[10:42] Oto
    Yes.
[10:43] Shizuku
    That's enough to make me happy.
[10:48] Oto
    Meow!
[11:12] Sumireko
    Is something wrong?
[11:13] Oto
    I was wondering if it'd be all right
    for me to stay over again.
[11:16] Sumireko
    I see.
[11:20] Sumireko
    So, how'd it go? Did everything
    with the ticket work out?
[11:24] Oto
    It seems we'll be able to go home.
[11:27] Sumireko
    Really? Is that really true?
[11:29] Oto
    Yes.
[11:30] Sumireko
    At long last?
[11:32] Oto
    That's right.
[11:33] Sumireko
    That's great, Oto-chan!
[11:35] Sumireko
    So you can go back where you're from, right?
[11:38] Oto
    Yes.
[11:40] Oto
    Oh. The black aeonium bloomed.
[11:44] Oto
    I'm glad.
[11:46] Sumireko
    Are you hungry?
[11:48] Sumireko
    Sorry. I don't really eat while I'm writing.
[11:52] Oto
    I brought food.
[11:53] Sumireko
    You're a lifesaver!
    I'll take a little break, then.
[12:01] Sumireko
    When will you be leaving?
[12:03] Oto
    Ren-nii is saying it'll be after
    he reads your new novel.
[12:08] Sumireko
    Really? You might make it
    home really soon, then.
[12:12] Oto
    What?
[12:14] Sumireko
    I think it's just about finished.
[12:17] Sumireko
    And if that's the case,
    I'll have to work my hardest!
[12:23] Oto
    I see.
[12:27] Adashino
    Really? So she'll be finished
    writing soon, then.
[12:31] Oto
    That's what she said.
[12:32] Adashino
    All right. Your summer vacation
    starts tomorrow, right?
[12:35] Oto
    Yes.
[12:36] Adashino
    You should relax and rest at
    Sumireko-san's place tonight.
[12:41] Oto
    Ren-nii, goodnight.
[12:44] Adashino
    Goodnight.
[12:51] Oto
    What's your new novel about?
[12:55] Sumireko
    Basically, it's about all the different
    Curiosities I've seen since I met you two.
[13:00] Sumireko
    Of course, since it's a novel,
    I've changed people's names and stuff.
[13:06] Oto
    Is that even interesting?
[13:08] Sumireko
    Don't be rude.
[13:10] Sumireko
    This story is about Adashino-kun and you.
[13:13] Sumireko
    How could it not be interesting?
[13:17] Oto
    I guess that's all right, then.
[13:19] Sumireko
    Does your summer vacation start soon?
[13:21] Oto
    Yep, tomorrow. I'm going
    to the pool at Nodoka's place.
[13:26] Sumireko
    Really? Then your swimsuit
    is in that backpack?
[13:29] Oto
    Yeah...
[13:31] Sumireko
    What kind of swimsuit? Is it a cute one?
[13:34] Sumireko
    Will you show me?
[13:35] Oto
    I don't know...
[13:37] Oto
    If you want to see it, you should just
    come to the pool with us tomorrow.
[13:42] Sumireko
    Unfortunately, I don't have
    a swimsuit of my own.
[13:46] Oto
    What?
[13:48] Sumireko
    It's something my grandmother told me.
[13:50] Sumireko
    She said that if I got close to the ocean
    or a pool, a curse awaited me.
[13:55] Oto
    What? What kind of curse?
[13:57] Sumireko
    Um, well... A kappa's, of course.
[14:01] Oto
    A kappa's?
[14:02] Sumireko
    That's right.
[14:03] Sumireko
    A long time ago, my grandfather saw
    the corpse of a kappa by the Tama River.
[14:08] Sumireko
    That's what she told me.
[14:09] Oto
    So basically, you're scared of water, right?
[14:17] Sumireko
    Oto-chan, what's it like where you're from?
[14:21] Oto
    It's just normal, I think.
    It's where I was born.
[14:24] Sumireko
    Is it a nice place?
[14:26] Oto
    It is. Probably.
[14:28] Sumireko
    What's that supposed to mean?
[14:30] Oto
    I'm sure everyone's waiting for me.
[14:34] Sumireko
    And for Adashino-kun, too?
[14:42] Sumireko
    Oto-chan?
[14:49] Sumireko
    She fell asleep.
[15:04] Oto
    I'm going out.
[15:07] Sumireko
    Okay. Be safe.
[15:28] Tamao
    It's a private pool!

    Occhan, sorry for making you
    worry about me so much.

    I'm glad you're feeling better.
[15:58] Nodoka
    Let's stay friends forever, okay?
[16:02] Oto
    Yeah.
[16:03] Mari; internal
    My! Are those two starting
    something without us?
[16:06] Mari; internal
    Oh, how scandalous. How scandalous!
[16:16] Oto
    Say...
[16:17] Nodoka
    What is it?
[16:19] Oto
    Are friends still friends
    even if they're apart?
[16:22] Nodoka
    Of course they are!
[16:24] Nodoka
    Even if one's on Earth and one's
    on Mars, friends are still friends!
[16:28] Oto
    I thought so. I'm so glad!
[16:32] Sumireko
    What?
[16:33] Sumireko
    Adashino-kun is taking today off?
[16:36] manager
    He called in.
[16:37] manager
    He said he's so incredibly constipated
    that his whole body is stuffed full of poop.
[16:42] manager
    Apparently, he's holed up
    in the bathroom, crying.
[16:45] Sumireko
    Yeah, no way.
[16:46] manager
    I never thought Adashino-kun would end up
    suffering such horrifying constipation, too.
[16:51] Sumireko
    "Too"?
[16:52] manager
    Well, you were the same,
    weren't you, Ogawa-san?
[16:55] manager
    When you took that time off before,
    Adashino-kun told me all about it.
[17:01] Sumireko
    That little...
[17:09] Oto
    Um, everyone?
[17:10] Oto
    For summer vacation, Ren-nii and I
    are going back to visit our hometown.
[17:14] Oto
    So I'll be saying goodbye for a little while.
[17:18] Oto
    Will you accept these?
[17:20] Oto
    Nodoka, here.
[17:21] Nodoka
    Thanks!
[17:22] Oto
    Here, Erika.
[17:24] Erika
    Thank you.
[17:25] Oto
    Here, Tama-chan.
[17:27] Tamao
    Accepted with pleasure!
[17:28] Oto
    Here, Mari.
[17:29] Mari
    Occhan...
[17:30] Nodoka
    And now...
[17:37] Tamao
    Nodoka is as bold as always.
[17:39] Erika
    You know, Nodoka, once you become an idol,
[17:42] Erika
    you'll have to be careful
    of sneak photographers.
[17:44] Nodoka
    I'll be just fine!
