[00:07] Karen
    Hey, kiss-freak...
[00:10] Koyomi
    We're going home.
[00:11] Karen
    Shut up.
[00:12] Karen
    Go home by yourself.
[00:13] Karen
    Don't try and stop me.
[00:15] Karen
    I told you...
[00:17] Karen
    How mad he made me.
[00:20] Koyomi
    And I told you to leave the rest to me.
[00:23] Karen
    I...
[00:24] Karen
    I never said I would.
[00:26] Koyomi
    Don't push yourself...
[00:28] Koyomi
    You should rest right now.
[00:31] Karen
    I'm not going to talk about this.
[00:34] Karen
    You won't listen to what I have to say anyway.
[00:37] Koyomi
    I'll listen later.
[00:39] Koyomi
    I'll sit beside you, peeling apples,
[00:41] Koyomi
    while you rest.
[00:43] Karen
    Come to think of it,
[00:45] ---
    it's been a long time since
    I've had a real, serious
[00:47] ---
    fight with you!
SIGN    Episode 7: Karen Bee, Part 7
[00:55] Koyomi
    Don't be stupid.
[00:56] Koyomi
    I've never been serious
    against my little sister.
[01:00] Koyomi
    This isn't the dojo.
[01:03] Koyomi
    And you're not in great shape,
SIGN    Stung by Supernatural Bee
[01:05] Koyomi
    
[01:05] Koyomi
    right?
[01:06] Karen
    Great shape?
[01:07] Karen
    You've got that right.
[01:09] Karen
    My head's all stuffed up,
    and my whole body is hot.
[01:13] Karen
    It feels like my clothes are
    about to catch fire.
[01:15] Karen
    My muscles ache, and I can barely walk.
[01:19] Karen
    And maybe there isn't enough moisture
[01:21] ---
    in my eyes, 'cause you look all blurry.
[01:24] Karen
    The next time I blink, I might
    never open my eyes again.
[01:28] Karen
    So I'm in the best shape of my life!
[01:32] Koyomi
    Pretty cool...
[01:33] Koyomi
    If you weren't my sister,
    I'd fall in love with you.
[01:36] Karen
    If you weren't my brother,
    I might be able to hold back!
SIGN    
[01:49] Karen
    Thanks, Nii-chan...
[01:51] Karen
    That woke me up!
[01:53] Karen
    There are twenty minutes till
    the next bus comes.
[01:57] Karen
    Nii-chan, should I call you an ambulance?
[01:59] Koyomi
    Hell, no.
[02:00] Koyomi
    The one who'll be taking the ambulance...
[02:04] ---
    is you!
[02:05] Karen
    No way.
[02:06] Karen
    How can he stand?
[02:07] Karen
    That could've killed him.
[02:09] Karen
    I was told never to use it outside the dojo...
[02:12] Koyomi
    Then I think it's time they kicked you out!
[02:14] Karen
    Don't try and stop me!
[02:27] Karen
    By the way, Nii-chan...
SIGN    When Your Body Feels Hot
[02:29] Karen
    When you say, "Your body feels hot,"
[02:32] Karen
    don't you think it seems kinda naughty?
[02:34] Koyomi
    I don't...
[02:37] Karen
    Because
[02:37] Karen
    "hot" is the first three letters of "hotel"!
[02:39] Koyomi
    Are you my junior?!
SIGN    Naughtiness in the Athletic Storeroom
    A beast of lust arrives!
SIGN    Talk to us about anything
[02:41] Karen
    Your junior? Who's that?
[02:43] Koyomi
    The biggest pervert I know!

SIGN    Recreation
[02:54] Shinobu
    Hey, master...
SIGN    Recreation
[02:58] Shinobu
    Did I not tell you?
[03:00] Shinobu
    Just as your fears are transmitted to me directly,
[03:05] Shinobu
    I feel your pain, as well.
[03:11] Koyomi
    Put up with it for a little longer.
SIGN    Recreation
[03:13] Shinobu
    If you order me to, I will act.
[03:16] Koyomi
    Here's your order: do nothing.
SIGN    Recreation
[03:19] Shinobu
    You ask the hardest things...
[03:22] Koyomi
    I'll pat your head later.
SIGN    Recreation
[03:25] Shinobu
    That isn't enough.
[03:26] Shinobu
    I request a ritual one level higher.
[03:31] Koyomi
    I didn't know there was one.
SIGN    Recreation
[03:32] Koyomi
    Out of curiosity, what is it?
[03:35] Shinobu
    Don't pat my head...
[03:39] Shinobu
    Rub my breasts.
SIGN    Recreation
SIGN    Recreation
[03:43] Koyomi
    Why didn't you say that to me
[03:45] ---
    when you were still an adult?!
SIGN    Punch
[03:55] Karen
    Give it up, already.
[03:57] Karen
    It hurts my fists when I punch you...
[04:00] Koyomi
    Forget that.
[04:01] Koyomi
    It hurts me when you punch me.
[04:04] Karen
    You can't beat me, Nii-chan.
[04:07] Koyomi
    You can't beat me, Karen-chan.
[04:09] Karen
    This is your chance to surrender, Nii-chan!
[04:12] Koyomi
    It's way too late for that line.
[04:16] Karen
    My fists hurt, so I'm going
    to stop punching you.
[04:26] Karen
    Not bad, Nii-chan!
[04:34] Koyomi
    Hey!
[04:54] Karen
    You get it now, right?
[04:56] Karen
    You can't beat me, Nii-chan!
[04:58] Koyomi
    You're the one who needs to get it...
[05:01] Koyomi
    You can't beat me, Karen-chan!
[05:04] Karen
    The good guy always wins, right?
[05:07] Karen
    Doesn't that mean that whoever
    wins is right, Nii-chan?
[05:10] Karen
    So if I beat you, I can go?
[05:13] Koyomi
    That way of thinking is dangerous.
[05:16] Koyomi
    It's about as far from justice as you can get.
[05:19] Karen
    What are you talking about?
[05:20] Karen
    You always say that, don't you?
[05:22] Karen
    Like a big arrogant jerk.
[05:24] Koyomi
    What do I say?
[05:26] Karen
    About Tsukihi-chan and me...
[05:28] Karen
    We're right, but we aren't strong.
[05:31] Karen
    And the good guys always win,
    so you can't lose.
SIGN    Fakes
[05:35] Karen
    You always talk like you're so
    much better than we are!
[05:40] Karen
    So I tried to make it so I wouldn't lose...
[05:42] Koyomi
    Oh, that?
[05:44] Koyomi
    That's correct.
[05:45] Koyomi
    You're right.
[05:47] Koyomi
    But you aren't strong.
[05:48] Karen
    I am strong...
[05:49] Karen
    Stronger than you, if nothing else.
[05:51] Koyomi
    Physically strong means nothing.
[05:54] Koyomi
    To be the real thing,
[05:56] Koyomi
    you need a strong will.
[05:58] Koyomi
    When you say you can't forgive Kaiki,
    where is your will?
[06:03] Koyomi
    You two are always trying to help others.
[06:06] Koyomi
    You're always doing it for someone else.
[06:08] Koyomi
    There's no will of your own there.
[06:10] Karen
    No!
[06:11] Karen
    We're doing what we think is right.
[06:15] Karen
    Everyone else is just the reason.
[06:17] Koyomi
    Don't make me laugh!
[06:19] Koyomi
    How can someone who seeks
[06:20] ---
    a reason from another person be right?
[06:23] Koyomi
    While you're forcing that reason
[06:24] ---
    on someone else, how can
    you take responsibility?
[06:27] Koyomi
    You're not good, and you're not heroes.
[06:31] Koyomi
    You're just kids playing a game!
SIGN    Fakes
[06:34] Koyomi
    Fakes.
[06:36] Koyomi
    You never go after evil people, just villains.
[06:40] Koyomi
    Am I wrong?
[06:41] Karen
    You are!
[06:42] Karen
    You don't know anything, so shut up.
[06:44] Karen
    Tsubasa-san would understand...
[06:47] Karen
    She knows everything!
[06:49] Koyomi
    She doesn't know everything.
[06:51] Koyomi
    All she knows
[06:53] Koyomi
    is what she knows.
[06:55] Koyomi
    If you can't give up the idea of self-sacrifice
    and be content with self-satisfaction,
[06:59] Koyomi
    you need to shut up.
[07:00] Koyomi
    It gives me a headache to hear you talk.
[07:03] Karen
    What's wrong with doing
    something for someone else?
[07:06] Karen
    What's wrong with self-sacrifice?
[07:08] Karen
    Even if... Even if we're fakes,
    what's wrong with that?
[07:13] Karen
    Has it ever caused any trouble for you?!
[07:16] Koyomi
    For a long time now.
[07:18] Koyomi
    But...
[07:21] Koyomi
    I never said it was wrong.
[07:24] Koyomi
    If you're prepared to live with a sense
    of inferiority for the rest of your life,
[07:27] Koyomi
    then even if you're a fake,
    isn't that the same as being real?
[07:31] Koyomi
    Just so we're clear, I hate you two.
[07:34] Koyomi
    But I'm always proud of you.
[07:37] Karen
    Nii-chan.
[07:38] Koyomi
    You said he made you mad, right?
[07:41] Koyomi
    I heard you...
[07:43] Koyomi
    However, I'm much madder...
[07:47] Koyomi
    He hurt something I'm
    proud of, and he'll pay.
[07:49] Koyomi
    Leave the rest to me!
[07:51] Karen
    I'm mad, but I also feel pathetic.
[07:54] Karen
    Making you clean up after my mess...
[07:56] Koyomi
    You can't even clean up your own sweat.
    Don't worry about it.
[08:00] Koyomi
    Cleaning up after their
[08:01] ---
    little sister is an honor for a big brother.
[08:05] Koyomi
    This time, I'll show you being cool.
[08:08] Koyomi
    Make sure you don't fall in love.
[08:10] Koyomi
    It'd be incestuous...
[08:12] Karen
    I'm already in love, Nii-chan.
[08:17] Karen
    You take care of the rest.
SIGN    Black Scene
SIGN    7/30 Sunday
SIGN    After that, I carried Karen home on my back.
    I don't think she'll be running off again,
    but just in case, I wrote "Any man will do"
    on her face with permanent marker, so she can't leave.
    (While I was at it, I wrote "Wearing a bra is a pain,
    so I'm not" on Tsukihi's. She shares responsibility, too.)
    Then I went to meet up with Senjougahara again. Then...
[08:29] Kaiki
    Aren't you the one I met in front
    of the Gaen child's house?
SIGN    Fine-ground and Deep-roasted
[08:35] Kaiki
    You're here about your sister?
SIGN    Naughty Ferris Wheel
[08:37] Kaiki
    A very manly child, then.
    Rare these days.
[08:42] Kaiki
    Your charm is gone, Senjougahara.
[08:46] Kaiki
    You've become a normal girl.
[08:48] Suruga
    What?
[08:49] Suruga
    I never wanted to see you again.
[08:52] Suruga
    Actually, that's a lie.
[08:54] Suruga
    I never wanted to see you in the first place.
[08:59] Suruga
    But I can say this now...
[09:04] Suruga
    I've been wanting to see you, Kaiki-san.
[09:06] Kaiki
    I didn't want to see you,
[09:08] Kaiki
    now that you're just a normal girl.
SIGN    Naughty Ferris Wheel
[09:12] Kaiki
    The last time we met,
    you shone like darkness.
[09:16] Kaiki
    No, better to say you'd attained
    a level of enlightenment.
[09:19] Kaiki
    Someone well worth deceiving...
[09:21] Kaiki
    Stop. Let's talk.
[09:23] Kaiki
    I've come to talk.
[09:25] Kaiki
    So did you, right?
[09:27] Kaiki
    Am I wrong?
[09:30] Kaiki
    Very well. I get it...
[09:33] Kaiki
    I'll stop cheating the middle schoolers.
[09:35] Kaiki
    And I won't spread the charms anymore.
[09:40] Kaiki
    And that lively little girl,
[09:42] ---
    your sister... Don't worry
    about her, Araragi.
[09:46] Kaiki
    It's called instant hypnosis.
[09:49] Kaiki
    She'll recover her health within
    the next three days.
[09:52] Kaiki
    And, Senjougahara...
[09:54] Kaiki
    I'll officially apologize for what
    happened with your mother.
[09:58] Kaiki
    And I'll do my best to return the money
[10:02] ---
    taken from your father.
[10:09] Suruga
    That's quite gracious of you...
[10:12] Suruga
    Did you really think I'd believe it?
[10:14] Suruga
    You don't seem repentant at all.
[10:18] Suruga
    Not the slightest bit.
[10:20] Kaiki
    Don't I?
[10:21] Kaiki
    Come to think of it,
    I didn't actually apologize.
[10:25] Kaiki
    Or beg for my life.
[10:28] Kaiki
    Sorry, very sorry, guys.
[10:30] Kaiki
    I'm very repentant.
[10:32] Kaiki
    Very sorry.
[10:33] Suruga
    I'm supposed to believe that
    half-hearted apology?
[10:37] Suruga
    Every word you say is a lie.
[10:40] Kaiki
    Perhaps.
[10:42] Suruga
    I'd prefer if you didn't upset me.
[10:44] Suruga
    I'm doing everything I can to hold
    myself back right now.
[10:47] Suruga
    Refraining from killing you is very difficult.
[10:51] Kaiki
    So it seems.
[10:52] Kaiki
    And it's in that respect that
    you've become normal.
[10:59] Kaiki
    The old you would never have held back.
[11:03] Suruga
    I won't ask you to return the money.
[11:06] Suruga
    That won't bring my family back.
[11:09] Kaiki
    You won't?
[11:11] Kaiki
    That's great.
[11:12] Kaiki
    I go through money fast.

[11:25] Kaiki
    Very well.
[11:28] Kaiki
    What's wrong, Araragi?
[11:29] Kaiki
    Why do you look at me with those eyes?
[11:32] Kaiki
    I hurt your sister.
[11:35] Kaiki
    Shouldn't I see more hatred in them?
[11:39] Koyomi
    She got what was coming to her.
[11:42] Koyomi
    It's her fault for getting involved
    with someone like you.
[11:45] Suruga
    That's not true.
[11:46] Suruga
    Her mistake was coming to see me alone.
[11:50] Suruga
    If she wanted to get me, she should have
[11:52] ---
    come with greater numbers,
    just as you have.
[11:56] Suruga
    In most other respects, she was right.
[12:02] Suruga
    Or, Araragi, did you decide on
    your own that she is a fool,
[12:06] Suruga
    thereby denying her?
[12:10] Koyomi
    I think she's right. Just...
[12:12] Kaiki
    She isn't strong?
[12:14] Kaiki
    True, she isn't.
[12:16] Kaiki
    But denying her kindness is a mistake.
[12:20] Kaiki
    And...
[12:23] Kaiki
    And without girls like that around,
[12:25] Kaiki
    I'd be out of business as a con man.
[12:29] Suruga
    So why is a con man like that
[12:32] ---
    doing what I want?
[12:34] Suruga
    It would be easy to talk me into
    doing whatever you wished.
[12:37] Suruga
    Like before.
[12:38] Kaiki
    Senjougahara,
[12:39] Kaiki
    you have the wrong idea about me.
[12:42] Kaiki
    No, you have the right idea.
    You merely overestimate me.
[12:46] Kaiki
    The person you view as your enemy
[12:49] ---
    is just a pathetic, middle-aged man.
[12:51] Kaiki
    Even as a con man,
    he's a minor and shabby one.
[12:54] Kaiki
    Or did I seem to you like
    some sort of monster?
[12:58] Suruga
    Of course not.
SIGN    Black Scene
[13:00] Suruga
    You're just...
[13:04] Suruga

[13:08] Kaiki
    Yes, that's right.

    I'm a fake.
[13:12] Kaiki
    I'm no one special.
[13:14] Kaiki
    Nor are you.
[13:16] Kaiki
    There's nothing dramatic about me
[13:18] Kaiki
    or about you.
[13:21] Kaiki
    Araragi, what about you?
[13:24] Kaiki
    I'd like to ask you a question.
SIGN    Naughty Ferris Wheel
[13:27] Kaiki
    Is your life dramatic?
SIGN    Tragic
[13:30] Kaiki
    Tragic?
SIGN    Comedic
[13:31] Kaiki

SIGN    Musical
[13:33] Kaiki
    I feel an unpleasant presence
    from your shadow.
[13:37] Kaiki
    And it appears
[13:38] ---
    you've taken half of your
    sister's pain onto yourself.
[13:42] Kaiki
    Madness...
[13:43] Kaiki
    To do something so risky for no money.
[13:47] Koyomi
    Which are you?
[13:50] Kaiki
    Which am I?
[13:51] Koyomi
    Do you know about the supernatural?
[13:55] Kaiki
    That's a less interesting question
    than I expected...
[13:58] Kaiki
    You're ruining my fun, Araragi.
[14:00] Kaiki
    For example, do you believe in ghosts?
[14:03] Kaiki
    You understand the mind of someone
[14:05] ---
    who doesn't believe in ghosts,
[14:07] ---
    but is still scared of them, right?
[14:09] Kaiki
    I'm something similar.
[14:11] Kaiki
    So let me answer your question this way...
[14:14] Kaiki
    I know nothing about the supernatural.
[14:16] Kaiki
    But I know those who do know.
[14:19] Kaiki
    That is all.
[14:21] Kaiki
    More precisely, I simply know
    those who think they know.
[14:28] Kaiki
    The wreathe-fire bee.
[14:30] Kaiki
    Ever heard of the wreathe-fire bee?
[14:33] Koyomi
    A monster from around the 15th century
    or something, wasn't it?
[14:36] Koyomi
    When a strange plague was explained
[14:37] ---
    as the work of a supernatural monster.
[14:40] Kaiki
    Correct.
[14:41] Kaiki
    However, wrong.

    And thus, no victims.
SIGN    Monster
[15:23] Kaiki
    You think that they exist,
[15:26] Kaiki
    so you feel like they're there.
[15:28] Kaiki
    Let me be clear...
[15:31] Kaiki
    Don't involve me in your delusions.
[15:35] Kaiki
    It's a nuisance.
[15:39] Koyomi
    He's a fake.
[15:42] Koyomi
    Just like Senjougahara said
[15:43] Koyomi
    and he said,
[15:45] Koyomi
    he's decided to live his entire life
    with a sense of inferiority.

[15:48] Koyomi
    A proud fake.
[15:50] Kaiki
    And you've taken half of it upon yourself.
[15:53] Kaiki
    It may not even take three days.
[15:56] Kaiki
    I don't know how you did it,
    but that's impressive.
[16:00] Kaiki
    But that means, Araragi,
SIGN    Naughty Ferris Wheel
[16:02] Kaiki
    that you and I will never
    accept one another.
[16:06] Kaiki
    It's far worse than water and oil.
[16:08] Kaiki
    We're fire and oil.
[16:09] Koyomi
    Who's fire and who's oil?
[16:12] Kaiki
    I don't know.
[16:13] Kaiki
    Since neither of us really seems like fire,
[16:15] Kaiki
    why not rubidium and water instead?
[16:19] Kaiki
    And I'm the rubidium.
[16:21] Koyomi
    So I'm water?
[16:23] Koyomi
    Then the fire is Karen and Tsukihi.
[16:27] Koyomi
    Fire and fire...
[16:28] Koyomi
    Together, they become an inferno,
[16:29] Koyomi
    the Fire Sisters.
[16:31] Suruga
    Your phone.
[16:34] Suruga
    Give me your phone.
[16:41] Kaiki
    That was horrible of you.
[16:43] Kaiki
    Now I won't be able to help those
    poor middle schoolers...
[16:47] Kaiki
    I wouldn't know how to reach them.
[16:51] Suruga
    I'm not asking you to help kids
    I don't even know.
[16:55] Suruga
    Araragi-kun, I'm about to say the
    most horrible thing in the world.
[17:03] Suruga
    It's their fault for being tricked.
[17:07] Suruga
    I'm not a hero or a good guy.
[17:09] Suruga
    I'm just an enemy of evil.
[17:13] Suruga
    You can't do anything for the victims, anyway.
[17:16] Suruga
    Even if you tried,
[17:18] ---
    you'd only end up stealing more from them.
[17:21] Kaiki
    I'm sure I would.
[17:23] Kaiki
    I'm a con man.
[17:24] Kaiki
    The whole atonement thing
    was a lie, as well.
[17:26] Kaiki
    You probably don't want to understand this,
[17:28] Kaiki
    but for me, making money isn't
    a matter of profit and loss.
[17:32] Suruga
    That's the part of you...
[17:35] Kaiki
    The "part of me" you what?
[17:39] Kaiki
    No answer?
[17:40] Kaiki
    You really have grown up to be boring...
[17:44] Kaiki
    Dramatic or not, you used to be wonderful.
[17:48] Kaiki
    And now you're just boring.
[17:51] Kaiki
    Heavier and fatter, though.
[17:53] Suruga
    Shut up.
[17:55] Suruga
    I don't care what you say about the old me.
[17:57] Suruga
    But don't insult me as I am now.
[18:00] Suruga
    Araragi-kun says he loves me.
[18:04] Suruga
    He loves me as I am now.
[18:06] Suruga
    Therefore, I like me as I am, too.
[18:09] Suruga
    So I cannot ignore anything you
    say that would damage me.
[18:13] Kaiki
    What?
[18:15] Kaiki
    So you two are like that.
[18:17] Kaiki
    I see... I see.
[18:18] Kaiki
    So that's it...
[18:20] Kaiki
    Then I've nothing more to say.
[18:22] Kaiki
    I don't wish to interfere with
    a budding relationship.
[18:24] Kaiki
    If you're not going to ask for it,
    I won't attempt to atone.
[18:27] Kaiki
    I don't want to do anything that
    won't get me any money.
[18:30] Kaiki
    I'll leave town.
[18:33] Kaiki
    I'll be gone tomorrow.
[18:35] Kaiki
    That's good enough, isn't it, Senjougahara?
[18:37] Kaiki
    Oh, yes... Senjougahara.
[18:39] Kaiki
    Let me tell you something.
[18:41] Suruga
    I don't want to hear it.
[18:42] Kaiki
    The man who once tried to rape you...
[18:45] Kaiki
    He was hit by a car and died.
[18:47] Kaiki
    In a place that had nothing to do with you,
[18:49] Kaiki
    in a way that had nothing to do with you.
[18:52] Kaiki
    And with no drama at all.
[18:55] Kaiki
    That's all there is to the past that
[18:58] ---
    you spend so much time worrying about.
[19:00] Kaiki
    There's nothing even worth settling.
[19:04] Kaiki
    The lesson for you here is not to expect
    anything dramatic from life.
[19:08] Suruga
    That's another lie, of course.
[19:10] Suruga
    The man who'd forgotten about me
    until this morning
[19:12] ---
    wouldn't know a thing about the
    man who tried to rape me.
[19:16] Kaiki
    Senjougahara, try to see past
    the surface of things.
[19:20] Kaiki
    It's possible that the fact that I'd forgotten
[19:23] ---
    about you was a lie, right?
[19:26] Suruga
    A lie...
[19:27] Suruga
    That's a lie.
SIGN    Black Scene
[19:28] Kaiki
    Does it matter if it's a lie?
[19:30] Kaiki
    There's no such thing as truth in this world.
[19:33] Kaiki
    Don't worry.
[19:35] Kaiki
    The fact that you were once in love with me
[19:37] Kaiki
    doesn't count as cheating.
[19:40] Kaiki
    It isn't fair to me if you hate me,
    in an attempt
[19:43] ---
    at loyalty to your current lover.
[19:46] Kaiki
    I'll say it again.
[19:47] Kaiki
    The past is merely the past.
[19:49] Kaiki
    There's no value in overcoming it
    or catching up to it.
[19:52] Kaiki
    A woman like you shouldn't be bound
    by such stupid emotions.
[19:56] Kaiki
    Just be happy with the man you have.
[19:59] Kaiki
    Farewell.
[20:04] Koyomi
    You fell in love with him?
[20:06] Suruga
    What was that?
[20:08] Suruga
    Araragi-kun, did you just attempt
[20:10] ---
    to confirm the virginity of
    the girl you're dating?
[20:13] Suruga
    Of course not.
[20:15] Suruga
    That would never happen.
[20:16] Suruga
    He's simply mistaken.
[20:18] Suruga
    What an insult.
[20:20] Suruga
    Disgusting...
[20:21] Suruga
    But at that time,
[20:24] ---
    anyone who attempted to save me
    would have seemed a prince,
[20:27] Suruga
    no matter what kind of person they were.
[20:30] Suruga
    I won't deny that I did feel somewhat
    positively toward that con man.
[20:35] Suruga
    He was still the first...
[20:37] Suruga
    I've discussed this before,
    so I won't dwell on it.
[20:41] Suruga
    If anyone other than you had saved me,
[20:45] Suruga
    it's possible I would've fallen
    in love with them, too.
[20:50] Suruga
    When I think about that, it infuriates me.
[20:53] Suruga
    I'm so glad you were the one who did...
[20:57] Koyomi
    Oshino would say that you just
    got saved by yourself.
[21:02] Suruga
    Possibly.
[21:03] Suruga
    Let's go home.
[21:04] Suruga
    It's getting late.
[21:06] Koyomi
    Oh, right, Senjougahara...
[21:08] Koyomi
    Before we leave, tell me
    that request you had.
[21:11] Koyomi
    What are you going to make me do?
[21:14] Suruga
    Nothing special.
[21:15] Suruga
    I didn't need that con man to tell me.
[21:17] Suruga
    It's possible that my past isn't
    worth settling things with.
[21:22] Suruga
    But I just did.
[21:28] Suruga
    That's what I think.
[21:31] Koyomi
    Settled, huh?
[21:32] Suruga
    Compliment me.
[21:33] Koyomi
    That's your request?
[21:37] Suruga
    No.
[21:38] Suruga
    A compliment from someone like you means
[21:40] ---
    absolutely nothing to me.
[21:42] Suruga
    But you seem to have forgotten
    to fulfill your obvious duty.
[21:47] Suruga
    I simply reminded you.
[21:48] Koyomi
    Really, are you made of iron or something?
[21:51] Suruga
    Iron?
[21:53] Suruga
    Of course not.
[21:54] Suruga
    I am a soft, cute girl.
[21:57] Suruga
    After everything that scum said to me,
    I am terribly hurt.
[22:02] Suruga
    I can barely stand...
[22:05] Koyomi
    Liar.
[22:06] Koyomi
    Are you a con artist, too?
[22:07] Suruga
    It's true.
[22:09] Suruga
    So...
[22:13] Suruga
    Be gentle to me tonight.
SIGN    Black Scene
[22:21] Koyomi
    The next day,
[22:23] Koyomi
    without even waiting for the
    three days Kaiki had stated,
[22:27] Koyomi
    Karen had recovered.
[22:31] Koyomi
    After that, I gave a general explanation
    to Karen and Tsukihi.
[22:35] Koyomi
    That Kaiki was gone from the city.
[22:37] Koyomi
    And thus, there would be no more victims.
[22:41] Karen
    Nii-chan, we'll be gone for a bit.
[22:44] Tsukihi
    Onii-chan, we'll be gone for a while.
[22:46] Koyomi
    Where are you two yuri sisters going?
[22:48] Karen
    Even with the con man gone,
[22:50] ---
    that doesn't mean the charms
    will just disappear.
[22:52] Karen
    And the damage they did
[22:54] ---
    to people's relationships won't heal itself.
[22:56] Karen
    The fact that there are no more victims
[22:58] ---
    doesn't help the victims already there.
[23:01] Tsukihi
    So we want to start cleaning up the mess.
[23:05] Koyomi
    Don't let your game get out of hand.
[23:09] Karen
    It's not a game, Nii-chan!
[23:12] Tsukihi
    We're not good guys.
[23:13] ---
    We're goodness itself, Onii-chan.
[23:15] Tsukihi
    Bye!
[23:18] Koyomi
    My prides.
[23:19] Koyomi
    My little sisters I'm so proud of.
[23:21] Koyomi
    Fakes...
[23:23] Koyomi
    But because of that, closer than
    anything to the real thing.

[23:26] Koyomi
    The Fire Sisters ran out of the house
[23:30] Koyomi
    like a lit firecracker.
