***SIGN*** CHAPTER 001
**[00:04] Koyomi**
*If I could see Mayoi Hachikuji
one more time, I wouldn't mind dying.*
**[00:08] Koyomi**
*For a while, I truly thought that.*
**[00:12] Koyomi**
*As for why I didn't do so...*
**[00:14] Koyomi**
*Much though I was okay with dying,
perhaps more so,*
**[00:17] Koyomi**
*I still wanted to live, contrary to expectations.*
**[00:21] Koyomi**
*I felt there was something
for me to do while I'm alive.*
**[00:26] Koyomi**
*When there's family or a lover,*
**[00:29] Koyomi**
*benefactors or friends,
those are factors to consider.*
**[00:33] Koyomi**
*However, humans, or at least I,*
**[00:36] Koyomi**
*aren't creatures with such strong self-control
that one would die for an emotion.*
**[00:42] Koyomi**
*I don't need friends.*
**[00:47] Koyomi**
*Because my strength as a human decreases.*
**[00:50] Koyomi**
*Those pet phrases became nostalgic,
so weak I've become.*
**[00:54] Koyomi**
*I am weak as a human.*
**[00:56] Koyomi**
*Weak, so weak...*
**[00:58] Koyomi**
*What's weakest of all is that
I don't particularly loathe my weakened self.*
**[01:06] Koyomi**
*I hold no grudge against it.*
**[01:11] Koyomi**
*However, there may be people out there
who cannot forgive me for becoming weaker.*
**[01:19] Koyomi**
*Overcoming the hell from spring break,
I still continued to live,*
**[01:23] Koyomi**
*and I'm not one who can't notice
someone glaring at me, wishing for me to die.*
**[01:28] Ougi**
You really are a fool, Araragi-senpai.
**[01:34] Koyomi**
*Yeah, it's true.*
**[01:36] Koyomi**
*"He that is born a fool
is never cured until death."*
**[01:38] Koyomi**
*On the other hand,
if it's something that death will cure,*
***SIGN*** KOYOMI ARARAGI
**[01:42] Koyomi**
*being a fool may not have been
that terrible of an illness, either.*

**[03:26] Koyomi**
H-Hachikuji?
**[03:28] Mayoi**
Yes.
**[03:30] Koyomi**
Hachikuji?
**[03:31] Mayoi**
Yes, that's right.
**[03:34] Koyomi**
Mayoi Hachikuji?
**[03:36] Mayoi**
Yes, I'm Mayoi Hachikuji.
**[03:41] Koyomi**
*Now wait, hold on.*
**[03:42] Koyomi**
*Don't panic.*
***SIGN*** ARARAGI
***SIGN*** KOYOMI
**[03:44] Koyomi**
*Right, just remember...*
**[03:45] Koyomi**
*What kind of a situation was this now?*
***SIGN*** Exam-taker number: 0049 Name: Araragi, Koyomi Foreign Subjects Taken: English, German, Chinese, Russian, Japanese (circle two subjects that apply)
**[03:48] Koyomi**
*Right. Today, March 13th
was the day of my entrance exams.*
***SIGN*** Exam Date: 3/13/xxxx (Tue) General Entrance Exams Japanese - oo:oo ~ oo:oo
**[03:53] Koyomi**
*Before heading to the college campus
to take the exam, I had made a detour.*
**[03:57] Koyomi**
*There, I saw the leader of the specialists,*
**[04:00] Koyomi**
*Gaen Izuko-san, waiting for me within
the shrine grounds, and I had to face her.*
**[04:10] Koyomi**
*And?*
**[04:11] Koyomi**
*And, why Hachikuji?*
**[04:13] Koyomi**
*Mayoi Hachikuji-san?*
**[04:22] Koyomi**
*Oh, brother.
Looks like there's a problem.*
**[04:25] Koyomi**
*From this turn of events,*
**[04:26] Koyomi**
*I'm sure everyone is thinking of
a surprising reunion with someone
*
**[04:30] Koyomi**
*Koyomi Araragi would never see again,
the one close to his heart, Mayoi Hachikuji,*
**[04:34] Koyomi**
*jumping for joy, choked with gratified tears,
trembling from the touching moment,*
**[04:38] Koyomi**
*rejoicing and screaming nonsense,
and he would first attempt to hug her.*
**[04:44] Koyomi**
*I'm sure that's what everyone expects.*
**[04:46] Koyomi**
*I'm sure that's what is expected of me.*
**[04:50] Koyomi**
*That's quite the burden of expectation.*
**[04:52] Koyomi**
*My adolescent self, the one who
jumped at Hachikuji with a rocket-like start*
**[04:57] Koyomi**
*each time he saw her walking around town,
is no longer here.*
**[04:59] Koyomi**
*If that is Koyomi Araragi, then he is already dead.*
**[05:03] Koyomi**
*He. Is. Dead.*
**[05:05] Koyomi**
*Such a Koyomi Araragi
that is better off dead, really was dead.*
**[05:10] Koyomi**
*He met a fitting end.*
**[05:12] Koyomi**
*But well, that said...*
**[05:14] Koyomi**
*That said...*
**[05:16] Koyomi**
*Tracing back the faint threads of memory,
I am indebted to Hachikuji quite a bit as well.*
**[05:22] Koyomi**
*Benevolence, justice, rites, knowledge,
loyalty, integrity, filial piety, sibling piety.*
***SIGN*** BENEVOLENCE, JUSTICE, RITES, KNOWLEDGE, LOYALTY, INTEGRITY, FILIAL PIETY, SIBLING PIETY
**[05:26] Koyomi**
*Return gratitude worth returning.*
**[05:28] Koyomi**
*It is only natural to approach someone who took care of you with gratitude.*
**[05:32] Koyomi**
*If that's been decided, then all is well.*
**[05:36] Koyomi**
*On your mark, get set...*
**[06:03] Koyomi**
Hachikuji!
**[06:10] Koyomi**
Hachikuji! Hachikuji! Hachikuji!
**[06:16] Koyomi**
What are you doing here?
Why are you here for me right now?
**[06:20] Koyomi**
No, I don't care about the reason,
I'm just happy that you're here for me.
**[06:23] Koyomi**
I can't put these touching feelings to words!
**[06:32] Koyomi**
Oh, how this feels to the touch...
The feeling of huggin you...
**[06:34] Koyomi**
This size, and how it
completely fits within my arms!
**[06:37] Koyomi**
This truly is Hachikuji!
**[06:39] Koyomi**
Thankful, so thankful!
**[06:41] Koyomi**
The more we rub cheeks,
the more it feels like Hachikuji!
**[06:44] Koyomi**
The more I lick around,
the more it feels like Hachikuji!
**[06:46] Koyomi**
The more it ripens,
the more I can lick Hachikuji!
**[06:50] Koyomi**
Come on, let me touch you more!
**[06:52] Koyomi**
Let me hug you more!
**[06:53] Koyomi**
Let me lick you more!
**[06:58] Koyomi**
Hey now! Don't thrash about!
It's harder for us to get naked!
**[07:08] Koyomi**
Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!
What the hell are you doing, brat?
***SIGN*** CHAPTER 003
**[07:20] Koyomi**
How to put it...
**[07:22] Koyomi**
That's right. After I parted ways with you,
***SIGN*** SEISHIROU SHISHIRUI
**[07:24] Koyomi**
Shinobu's first minion showed up,
**[07:27] Koyomi**
Oikura returned,
***SIGN*** SODACHI OIKURA
**[07:29] Koyomi**
Sengoku had all that happen
to her here at this shrine,
***SIGN*** NADEKO SENGOKU
***SIGN*** DEISHU KAIKI
**[07:32] Koyomi**
I bumped into Kaiki,
***SIGN*** KOYOMI ARARAGI
**[07:34] Koyomi**
I turned into a vampire on my own,
**[07:36] Koyomi**
that and I had Ononoki-chan
kill one of her own creators,
***SIGN*** YOTSUGI ONONOKI
***SIGN*** SURUGA KANBARU
**[07:40] Koyomi**
oh right, that was here at this shrine, too.
***SIGN*** KAREN ARARAGI / TSUKIHI ARARAGI
***SIGN*** YODURU KAGENUI
**[07:44] Koyomi**
And also at this shrine,
Kagenui-san went missing, too.
**[07:48] Koyomi**
I had one bad thing
happen to me after another.
**[07:51] Koyomi**
For all this time, I called the two weeks
of spring break as a hellish time for me.
**[07:56] Koyomi**
But the true hell
may have been the past six months—
**[07:59] Mayoi**
That's incorrect, Araragi-san.
**[08:02] Koyomi**
Hm? What is?
**[08:04] Mayoi**
Ara-lucky-san.
**[08:07] Koyomi**
Hachikuji, I was just talking about how
unfortunate of a person I had been.
**[08:12] Koyomi**
I don't care how you flub, but just don't flub
in such a positive, happy light like that.
**[08:17] Koyomi**
At the least, you should have said Un-lucky-san.
**[08:20] Koyomi**
That, and my name is Araragi.
**[08:23] Mayoi**
I'm sorry. I flubbed.
**[08:24] Koyomi**
No, that was intentional.
**[08:26] Mayoi**
I fwubbed.
**[08:27] Koyomi**
It's not intentional?
**[08:29] Mayoi**
Flub-dub-cub-hub-stub-grub-sub-bub-rub-club-tub.
**[08:33] Koyomi**
How can you recite that without flubbing?
**[08:35] Koyomi**
I can't help but marvel at you as you do that!
**[08:38] Mayoi**
You're incorrect, Araragi-san.
**[08:46] Mayoi**
It's more realistic an error,
or rather a more practical error...
**[08:50] Mayoi**
To be frank, the location is different.
**[08:54] Koyomi**
Location?
**[08:57] Mayoi**
For a while, Araragi-san,
**[09:00] Mayoi**
you've been saying
"this shrine" this, "this shrine" that.
**[09:06] Mayoi**
But, this isn't North Shirahebi Shrine.
**[09:11] Mayoi**
Huh? What?
**[09:14] Mayoi**
And, it's not even that park
where I first met you, Araragi-san.
**[09:18] Koyomi**
What?
**[09:21] Mayoi**
Araragi-san,
please stay calm and listen to me.
**[09:26] Mayoi**
Araragi-san, you may be thinking that I,
**[09:28] Mayoi**
someone who has rested in peace,
have returned before you.
**[09:33] Mayoi**
But actually, in reality, that is not the case.
**[09:37] Koyomi**
What?
***SIGN*** WHAT
**[09:38] Mayoi**
It's not that I have appeared
before you, Araragi-san.
**[09:41] Mayoi**
Araragi-san, you were the one
who appeared before me, okay?
***SIGN*** WHAT
**[09:44] Koyomi**
What, what?
***SIGN*** WHAT²
**[09:45] Mayoi**
Araragi-san, early in the morning on March 13th,
you visited said North Shirahebi Shrine,
**[09:51] Mayoi**
met with Gaen Izuko-san,
and you were murdered.
**[09:58] Izuko**
*And that solution is for you to die.*
**[10:01] Izuko**
*It's all right. It will only hurt for an instant.*
***SIGN*** HACHIKUJI BUS
**[10:06] Mayoi**
This place, Araragi-san...
**[10:08] Mayoi**
is Hell.
**[10:10] Koyomi**
What?
**[10:11] Mayoi**
The bottommost layer of hell
among all hells...
**[10:16] Mayoi**
Avici Hell.
***SIGN*** CHAPTER 004
**[10:23] Koyomi**
Hell? Hell? Avici Hell?
***SIGN*** *SANJIVA / KALASUTRA / SAMGHATA /
RAURAVA / MAHARAURAVA / TAPANA*
**[10:27] Koyomi**
Let's say this is indeed *Avici*.
I have one big question.
**[10:32] Mayoi**
Oh, you're wondering why you fell into
such a deep part of hell, Araragi-san?
**[10:38] Mayoi**
You see, Araragi-san,
you have turned into a vampire, right?
***SIGN*** HMRGH?
**[10:42] Mayoi**
The main sin that lowered you down
to *Avichi* is just that. Saving a demon.
***SIGN*** TOUR OF HELL
**[10:48] Mayoi**
Of course you'd go to hell for that.
**[11:00] Koyomi**
*I see.*
**[11:02] Koyomi**
*No, the big question I had
wasn't about my grave sin.*
**[11:08] Koyomi**
What the hell are you doing here?
**[11:11] Mayoi**
Why, you ask...
**[11:13] Mayoi**
But well, you see, I fell down to hell.
**[11:21] Koyomi**
You've got to be kidding me.
After such a touching resting into peace!?
**[11:25] Koyomi**
You fell to hell after that?
Seriously? That was such a waste!
**[11:29] Koyomi**
What are you doing? This just can't be!
**[11:34] Mayoi**
See, I didn't know
until I fell down here myself.
**[11:39] Mayoi**
When children die before their parents,
they apparently go straight to hell, no matter what.
***SIGN*** IT'S THAT BIT ABOUT PILING UP STONES ON THE BANKS OF HELL
**[11:48] Koyomi**
You're kidding, right?
**[11:52] Mayoi**
Hmm? What's the matter, Araragi-san?
**[11:55] Koyomi**
*But still...*
**[11:57] Koyomi**
That's not a sin that would make you fall
all the way down to *Avichi* unlike me, right?
**[12:03] Koyomi**
Shouldn't you be piling stones
on the banks of hell?
**[12:06] Mayoi**
Yes, that's right, Araragi-san.
**[12:10] Mayoi**
I knew this is where
you'd come falling down to, Araragi-san.
**[12:14] Mayoi**
That is why I took a trip
from the banks of Hell to pick you up.
**[12:22] Mayoi**
"It looks like I'm having a friend come nearby,
so I'll take a break from piling stones today!"
**[12:27] Mayoi**
That's how I got out of there.
**[12:29] Koyomi**
So the banks of hell
is that easygoing a place to be?
**[12:38] Koyomi**
You had known in advance?
**[12:40] Mayoi**
No, it's not that I knew.
The person who told me about it, did know.
**[12:47] Mayoi**
Apparently that person...
**[12:50] Mayoi**
...knows everything.
***SIGN*** CHAPTER 005
**[12:55] Mayoi**
Now that all the detailed explanations
for every mystery has been explained,
**[12:59] Mayoi**
let us start heading over.
**[13:02] Mayoi**
Let's go, Araragi-san.
**[13:07] Koyomi**
Hachikuji, you haven't had any hesitation
in your steps at all until here.
**[13:10] Koyomi**
At the least, can you tell me
where our destination is?
**[13:13] Mayoi**
To tell you the destination where we are heading
based on the objective for heading there...
**[13:18] Mayoi**
Araragi-san, it's my job
to resurrect you back to life.
**[13:22] Koyomi**
Eh? I can be resurrected?
**[13:25] Mayoi**
Of course you can.
What are you going to do by staying dead?
**[13:28] Koyomi**
But, Gaen-san...
**[13:30] Mayoi**
No, that's why you need
to get a grip, Araragi-san.
**[13:34] Mayoi**
In other words,
"dying then resurrecting" was included
**[13:37] Mayoi**
in everything proceeding according
to her calculations.
**[13:40] Koyomi**
What's up with that fruitless calculation?
**[13:42] Koyomi**
That's a pretty meaningless act, much like
dividing by two after multiplying by two.
**[13:47] Mayoi**
It's not "dividing by two
after multiplying by two."
**[13:50] Mayoi**
There is subtraction as well.
**[13:53] Mayoi**
Well, I'm sure you'll figure it out eventually.
**[13:58] Mayoi**
Oh, Araragi-san.
**[14:01] Mayoi**
Someone has sunken into the ground over there.
***SIGN*** CHAPTER 006
**[14:09] Koyomi**
Sh-Shinobu!
**[14:19] Mayoi**
Was it like your body
moved on its own, Araragi-san?
**[14:23] Mayoi**
That's strange. Araragi-san, you regretted
saving Shinobu-san over spring break so much.
**[14:29] Mayoi**
But here, in the same situation,
why did you try to do the same thing again?
**[14:34] Koyomi**
Well, that's... Um...
**[14:37] Koyomi**
All I can say is that my body moved on its own.
**[14:42] Koyomi**
Well, I still do wonder
**[14:43] Koyomi**
to this day, what would have happened
if I had ignored Shinobu back then.
**[14:47] Koyomi**
I think and dream about it even now.
**[14:51] Mayoi**
Over here!
**[14:57] Mayoi**
Oh, Araragi-san, a pervert
is coming this way. Please be careful.
**[15:01] Koyomi**
A pervert is coming? That's a big deal.
**[15:04] Koyomi**
Hachikuji, hide inside my clothes,
I mean, behind my back.
**[15:07] Mayoi**
You've already said "inside my clothes" there.
**[15:12] Mayoi**
You could say, Araragi-san,
that your life turned tumultuous
**[15:15] Mayoi**
from when you saved Shinobu-san.
**[15:18] Mayoi**
But if you say that,
a big aspect was you getting to know
**[15:21] Mayoi**
Hanekawa-san right before
you saved Shinobu-san.
**[15:24] Koyomi**
Well, I won't deny that it was
Hanekawa's fault in all sorts of ways.
**[15:29] Koyomi**
Because she doesn't know everything, but knows only
what she knows, and exposed truths she didn't need to,
**[15:36] Koyomi**
and because she forgot truths
that she didn't have to forget,
**[15:39] Koyomi**
we went through reckless shortcuts
and impossible detours this whole time.
**[15:44] Koyomi**
But...
**[15:45] Koyomi**
Even then, I am glad
that I became friends with her.
**[15:49] Koyomi**
That, I believe from the bottom of my heart.
**[15:59] Koyomi**
Senjyogahara!
**[16:05] Mayoi**
I believe there was an option here to not catch
Senjyogahara-san after her foot slipped.
***SIGN*** BACK THEN, SENJYOGAHARA-SAN HAD ALMOST NO WEIGHT
***SIGN*** SO SHE PROBABLY WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN INJURED
**[16:13] Mayoi**
But Araragi-san...
**[16:15] Koyomi**
I'll catch her, as many times as I need to,
**[16:17] Koyomi**
if Senjyogahara would come falling down.
**[16:20] Mayoi**
Suppose that, back then,
if you had not caught Senjyogahara-san.
**[16:26] Mayoi**
That con artist is going to show up
in this town shortly after this, right?
**[16:31] Koyomi**
The con artist... Deishu Kaiki.
**[16:35] Mayoi**
If, back then, you had not gotten
in the way, Araragi-san,
**[16:38] Mayoi**
perhaps they may have
gotten back together again?
**[16:45] Mayoi**
How is it, Araragi-san?
**[16:47] Mayoi**
If you imagined that perhaps you got in the way
of Senjyogahara-san and Kaiki-san's romance...
**[16:53] Koyomi**
If I imagined?
**[16:55] Koyomi**
All the same, I can't help but think,
"Serves you right!"
**[17:01] Koyomi**
It seems she was obliged
to Kaiki concerning Sengoku.
**[17:05] Koyomi**
But, that is a completely different matter.
**[17:08] Koyomi**
I can say from the bottom of my heart
that I was better off never meeting him.
**[17:12] Mayoi**
Then lastly, let's walk around the bit
about Sengoku-san, who you just mentioned.
**[17:17] Koyomi**
Wait, what about Kanbaru?
**[17:20] Mayoi**
That is a different part.
**[17:24] Koyomi**
About Shinobu, about Hanekawa,
about Senjyogahara, and of course about Hachikuji...
**[17:30] Koyomi**
If I were to come across
the same situation again,
**[17:32] Koyomi**
I'm sure I would do the same thing
over and over again.
**[17:35] Koyomi**
But, no matter what I do, I can't deny
the feeling that I could have done it better.
**[17:40] Mayoi**
I think you are doing plenty fine,
Araragi-san.
**[17:44] Mayoi**
At least, everything that concerns myself.
**[17:47] Koyomi**
When you say that,
it gives me a small feeling of salvation.
**[17:52] Koyomi**
But at the least, when we're talking
about Sengoku, I failed.
**[18:05] Koyomi**
*On the steps of the actual mountain,
when I passed by Nadeko Sengoku...*
**[18:09] Koyomi**
*Back then, I couldn't come to realize
that she was her.*
**[18:21] Mayoi**
I don't know about that.
After all, you aren't omnipotent.
**[18:25] Mayoi**
You should distinguish things like that,
like Hanekawa-san.
**[18:32] Mayoi**
Come to think, is Ononoki-san doing well?
**[18:36] Koyomi**
Well, she's doing well.
**[18:37] Mayoi**
I see. Then, as the one who assigned her
to be my successor,
**[18:42] Mayoi**
it makes me want to sigh in relief.
**[18:44] Koyomi**
Ononoki-chan was your successor?
**[18:46] Mayoi**
Yes. The sanctioned successor.
***SIGN*** SANCTIONED (KOUNIN)
***SIGN*** SUCCESSOR (KOUNIN)
**[18:50] Mayoi**
I'm sure she has delightful chats
unfolding around you, Araragi-san.
**[18:57] Koyomi**
Come to think, Ononoki-chan isn't included
in this 89-spot pilgrimage, either.
***SIGN*** WRAP IT UP!
**[19:04] Mayoi**
We have time constraints as well.
**[19:06] Koyomi**
Time constraints?
**[19:08] Mayoi**
Yes. Producer Hachikuji
had to make a tough decision.
**[19:11] Mayoi**
Well, the anime shed a lot of light
onto Ononoki-san close up, so it's fine.
**[19:15] Koyomi**
You don't have to balance things out
with such a thing.
**[19:19] Koyomi**
Balance.
**[19:22] Koyomi**
*That's what was on my mind.*
**[19:25] Koyomi**
*Balance.*
**[19:37] Koyomi**
The right thing.
**[19:38] Mayoi**
Yes? What was that, Araragi-san?
**[19:41] Koyomi**
Well, I was thinking
I had a debate with the Fire Sisters,
**[19:44] Koyomi**
an advocate of justice,
about something like that.
**[19:47] Koyomi**
I suddenly was reminded of it.
**[19:50] Mayoi**
Well, we're almost at the pinnacle, so if
there's more you want to discuss, keep it short.
**[19:55] Mayoi**
Because that will most likely be
our final talk session.
**[19:58] Koyomi**
What?
***SIGN*** THEN, I WANT TO TALK ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE.
**[20:04] Koyomi**
It was a talk about how it's difficult
to do the right thing.
**[20:08] Koyomi**
Most people are eager to correct mistakes
more than doing the right thing, right?
**[20:14] Mayoi**
Doing the right thing
and correcting mistakes are different?
**[20:18] Koyomi**
It's similar but different.
It's not on the mark, but pretty close.
***SIGN*** THE ACT OF "CORRECTING A MISTAKE"
***SIGN*** MAKES PEOPLE FEEL LIKE
***SIGN*** THEY ARE "DOING THE RIGHT THING"—
**[20:25] Koyomi**
If you keep correcting mistakes...
**[20:27] Koyomi**
If you crush mistakes one by one,
will it be a pure white kind of right someday?
**[20:33] Koyomi**
If I had to pick, I'd say
it would be a pitch black kind of right.
**[20:37] Koyomi**
Anyways, in a nutshell,
that's what I want to know.
**[20:41] Mayoi**
But, if you go that route,
you won't obtain what you really want.
**[20:46] Koyomi**
I can't obtain...
**[20:49] Koyomi**
...what I really want?
**[20:51] Mayoi**
Because it's on the premise
that someone else is evaluating.
**[20:54] Mayoi**
At that rate, you'll only receive
what others give you.
**[20:57] Mayoi**
Of course, I'm not saying that's a bad thing
**[21:00] Mayoi**
If, like you, Araragi-san, one sought something
beyond reach, or something you don't deserve,
**[21:05] Mayoi**
such a method
would prove to be impossible.

The only thing you can do is succeed, right?
**[21:16] Koyomi**
It's not like I didn't particularly
want to talk about myself here.
**[21:21] Koyomi**
But well, maybe that is the case.
No, that's how it should be.
**[21:26] Mayoi**
You just said you weren't speaking
about yourself.
**[21:30] Mayoi**
Then, who were you speaking about?
**[21:39] Koyomi**
*Was it the defenders of justice,
the Fire Sisters?*
**[21:42] Koyomi**
*Was it a story about Oshino?*
**[21:46] Koyomi**
*That's not it.*
**[21:47] Koyomi**
*Probably, what I wanted to say...*
**[21:50] Koyomi**
*What I wanted to talk about... was her.*
**[21:53] Koyomi**
*The transfer student.*
**[21:55] Koyomi**
*Meme Oshino's niece.*
**[21:57] Koyomi**
*Ougi Oshino. It was about her.*
**[22:01] Koyomi**
*Why didn't her name
cross my mind until right now?*
**[22:05] Koyomi**
*Why couldn't I remember her?
Isn't that a bit strange?*
**[22:09] Koyomi**
*She is the one who, of my past year,*
**[22:12] Koyomi**
*was the most important person
in the second half.*
**[22:23] Tadatsuru**
Hello, Araragi-kun.
I've been waiting for you.
***SIGN*** CHAPTER 007
**[22:31] Koyomi**
Wha—
**[22:33] Koyomi**
Wh-Why are you here?
**[22:41] Mayoi**
The one who notified me of "her" will
was Teori-san over there.
**[22:47] Koyomi**
N-Notify?
**[22:48] Tadatsuru**
Don't give me that look, Araragi-kun.
**[22:51] Tadatsuru**
I'll give you a full round of explanations.
**[22:55] Koyomi**
You're, I mean...
**[22:57] Koyomi**
a specialist who specializes in the extermination
of immortal apparitions, right?
**[23:02] Tadatsuru**
You don't have to worry
about that for now.
**[23:05] Koyomi**
What?
**[23:07] Tadatsuru**
From you, your vampiric nature...
**[23:09] Tadatsuru**
...has been subtracted.
**[23:16] Koyomi**
*Oh, I see.*
**[23:18] Koyomi**
*So that's what Hachikuji meant
about what she said earlier.*
**[23:22] Koyomi**
*It wasn't just multiplication and division,
but there's subtraction involved as well.*
**[23:26] Koyomi**
*The subtracted number
was my vampiric nature.*
**[23:31] Tadatsuru**
Is Yotsugi doing well? I hope she didn't
worry about the fact that she killed me.
**[23:38] Tadatsuru**
After all, she wasn't told
of the circumstances that we were in.
**[23:42] Koyomi**
What were the circumstances?
**[23:46] Tadatsuru**
To put it plainly...
**[23:48] Tadatsuru**
Being killed by Yotsugi in that manner
was the true role that had been given to me.
**[23:57] Tadatsuru**
To fall to hell ahead of time, and have
all preparations to resurrect you be completed.
**[24:04] Tadatsuru**
That was my job as a professional specialist.
***SIGN*** MAYOI HELL - PART TWO
***SIGN*** CHAPTER 008
**[24:15] Koyomi**
Huh?
***SIGN*** FIVE MINUTES LATER
**[24:26] Koyomi**
You mean you feigned death?
**[24:30] Tadatsuru**
The individual known as me had already
passed away at a point in the distant past.
**[24:36] Tadatsuru**
Back then, my self that Yotsugi killed
was a puppet that I controlled.
**[24:46] Koyomi**
You said that Ononoki-chan
didn't know about that?
**[24:50] Tadatsuru**
Yup, that's right. Not just Yotsugi,
but Yoduru didn't know, either.
**[24:56] Tadatsuru**
The ones who knew about this technique were
**[24:58] Tadatsuru**
Gaen-senpai, and Meme Oshino.
Nobody else.
**[25:05] Koyomi**
If so, then what in the world was that farce?
**[25:09] Tadatsuru**
A farce? That was the best act in my book.
**[25:15] Tadatsuru**
I mean, dying and resurrecting.
**[25:18] Tadatsuru**
You could say it's my specialty
even more than it is for vampires.
**[25:22] Tadatsuru**
Though, strictly speaking,
I'm not really resurrecting back to life.
**[25:27] Tadatsuru**
I am merely possessing a doll,
**[25:29] Tadatsuru**
and through that medium,
I am regressing into the material world.
**[25:32] Koyomi**
From when?
**[25:33] Tadatsuru**
I became a puppeteer
**[25:36] Tadatsuru**
after I created the doll known as Yotsugi,
and parted ways with them.
**[25:42] Tadatsuru**
Whoa.
***SIGN*** WHITE FRAME
**[25:48] Tadatsuru**
It seems I am being hurried.
**[25:50] Tadatsuru**
Allow me to explain plainly.
**[25:54] Tadatsuru**
I quit college, and entered this field.
**[25:58] Tadatsuru**
But as Gaen-senpai was glaring at me,
I couldn't really get things to go my way.
**[26:04] Tadatsuru**
So, the hasty decision I had come up with
was to call the forbidden technique.
**[26:10] Tadatsuru**
As a specialist, it's too powerful of a spell
to use, more than being a forbidden move.
**[26:15] Tadatsuru**
I had tried to create a doll apparition
named Tadatsuru Teori.
**[26:20] Koyomi**
Did that succeed?
**[26:23] Tadatsuru**
I failed, and what you see here is the result.
**[26:27] Tadatsuru**
I became something
like half-man and half-monster,
**[26:30] Tadatsuru**
wandering the boundaries
of the material world and the afterlife.
**[26:34] Tadatsuru**
Well, I say it was a failure,
but I can continue to live through my dolls.
**[26:40] Tadatsuru**
And since then, I succeeded
in the mass-production of the dolls.
**[26:44] Tadatsuru**
So, if you say I'm immortal, I'm immortal.
**[26:46] Tadatsuru**
If you say I'm an apparition,
I'm an apparition.
**[26:49] Tadatsuru**
At most, I make good use of my special
constitution to strive in my own business.
***SIGN*** BECAUSE HE HAD SUCH A SPECIAL CONSTITUTION
***SIGN*** HE WAS ABLE TO COME THIS FAR OUTSIDE OF GAEN-SAN'S NETWORK...
**[26:56] Koyomi**
Then, why did you pretend to die?
**[26:59] Tadatsuru**
It was last month.
**[27:01] Tadatsuru**
One request came flying for me
as a specialist.
**[27:06] Tadatsuru**
It was a request to resolve the anomalies
that were happening in your town.
**[27:12] Tadatsuru**
The contents of that request
had targeted you and ex-Kiss-shot.
**[27:18] Tadatsuru**
You guys were certified as harmless
within Gaen-senpai's network,
**[27:24] Tadatsuru**
but an apparition guarded by the network
was something I targeted as my top priority.
**[27:30] Tadatsuru**
Request or not, you were a target
that I should be on the move for.
**[27:34] Koyomi**
*This guy took my two little sisters
and one underclassman as hostages.*
**[27:39] Koyomi**
*He pulled off such a vicious, cruel act.*
***SIGN*** BLACK FRAME
**[27:44] Tadatsuru**
If something had
not been done in advance,
**[27:47] Tadatsuru**
I wonder if I would have been
unscathed by it all.
**[27:50] Koyomi**
Don't say scary things like that.
**[27:52] Tadatsuru**
I'm the one who is scared saying this.
**[27:55] Tadatsuru**
To think that Suruga Kanbaru
was the daughter of the Gaen clan...
**[27:59] Tadatsuru**
When I think about what would've happened
if I had injured her without
**[28:02] Tadatsuru**
knowing anything, I start trembling.
**[28:04] Tadatsuru**
I'm glad that I had heard things in advance.
**[28:08] Koyomi**
Tadatsuru, so you had heard something
from Gaen-san before you received the request?
**[28:14] Tadatsuru**
No, it was someone else that was
the middleman between me and Gaen-senpai.
***SIGN*** MIDDLEMAN
**[28:22] Koyomi**
*To the word "middleman,"
I had one inspiration.*
**[28:27] Koyomi**
Oshino?
***SIGN*** OSHINO
**[28:30] Koyomi**
Meme Oshino?
***SIGN*** CHAPTER 009
**[28:32] Tadatsuru**
Correct.
**[28:33] Tadatsuru**
Yes, that man
who acts as he sees through things.
**[28:37] Tadatsuru**
Despite being one of the leading members
of Gaen-senpai's network,
**[28:40] Tadatsuru**
he reached out and contacted me.
**[28:43] Tadatsuru**
That made me feel like
he was still a free man as ever.
**[28:47] Tadatsuru**
He had said that because I was outside
of Gaen-senpai's network,
**[28:51] Tadatsuru**
there was something I could do.
**[28:54] Koyomi**
And that was when you had heard
of Kanbaru's background in advance?
**[28:59] Tadatsuru**
Yup. And there was talk about you as well,
or should I say, talk about you guys?
**[29:05] Tadatsuru**
Now that I think about it, he was appealing to me
about how safe you guys were.
**[29:11] Tadatsuru**
By the way, I realized that he had
**[29:14] Tadatsuru**
seen my true identity as just a doll,
was at that time as well.
**[29:18] Tadatsuru**
No, now that I think about it,
maybe he was threatening me?
**[29:22] Tadatsuru**
Like, "if you laid a hand on my friends,
I'll disclose your true nature."
***SIGN*** TO THINK HE HAD TAKEN COUNTERMEASURES TO PREPARE FOR A SITUATION THAT IS EXPECTED TO HAPPEN
**[29:34] Tadatsuru**
This was the argument he had made.
**[29:37] Tadatsuru**
"Koyomi Araragi and Shinobu Oshino."
**[29:39] Tadatsuru**
"Currently, they are basically harmless."
**[29:42] Tadatsuru**
"As long as you leave them untouched,
there are no problems."
**[29:45] Tadatsuru**
"However, I'm not saying cases
that deviate from the norm don't exist."
**[29:49] Tadatsuru**
"The case IS where Araragi-kun colludes with
Shinobu-chan, and continues to vampirify himself."
**[29:55] Tadatsuru**
In other words, that man was deeply concerned
about the arrival of a situation
**[30:01] Tadatsuru**
where you had to do as such, Araragi-kun.
**[30:03] Tadatsuru**
He seemed to know you'd willingly be reckless
when it came to situations of that sort.
**[30:10] Koyomi**
Even if he knew...
**[30:12] Tadatsuru**
If such turn of events were to happen,
I may receive some sort of a request.
**[30:17] Tadatsuru**
A request to hunt down vampires, that is.
**[30:21] Tadatsuru**
He wanted me to "forget my grudges from the past,
and seek contact with Gaen-senpai."
**[30:26] Tadatsuru**
"And at that point, Gaen-senpai
should be waiting to hear from you."
**[30:31] Tadatsuru**
"Because Gaen-senpai can't move,
as she has her position to hold."
**[30:35] Tadatsuru**
Back then, I didn't really understand
what he was talking about.
**[30:40] Tadatsuru**
But in reality, things went exactly
like he thought it would go.
**[30:44] Tadatsuru**
And that's why, when that request came flying in,
indeed, to exterminate you guys,
**[30:50] Tadatsuru**
it sent shivers up my spine.
**[30:53] Tadatsuru**
At the same time,
I found it rather strange.
**[30:56] Tadatsuru**
If he was so concerned
about this turn of events,
**[30:59] Tadatsuru**
why didn't Oshino want to do something
about it on his own?
**[31:03] Tadatsuru**
That was something I became intrigued in.
**[31:05] Tadatsuru**
That's why I thought I'd play along
with his little arrangement.
**[31:10] Tadatsuru**
I contacted Gaen-senpai.
***SIGN*** AND SO, THE CURTAIN ROSE ON THE FARCE PLAY.
***SIGN*** CHAPTER 010
**[31:24] Mayoi**
Araragi-san, that's your ride
to go back to the material world.
**[31:28] Mayoi**
You really are running out of time.
**[31:31] Mayoi**
If you miss that thread, Araragi-san, you really
will continue to burn forever here in *Avici*.
**[31:38] Mayoi**
And so, Teori-san, I'm terribly sorry,
but can you cut that story out about here?
**[31:44] Koyomi**
No, wait, Hachikuji.
**[31:47] Koyomi**
It wasn't okay to just
merely turn down the request?
**[31:52] Tadatsuru**
"It's better for me to play along
with what the enemy intended."
**[31:56] Tadatsuru**
That was the conclusion
Gaen-senpai and I came to.
**[32:01] Tadatsuru**
I did say it was better to play along
with what they intended,
**[32:04] Tadatsuru**
but their intent is not something
I clearly understand.
**[32:08] Tadatsuru**
I'm doing this because
I want to find out what it is.
**[32:11] Tadatsuru**
That, and simultaneously,
**[32:14] Tadatsuru**
it was a measure necessary in order to stop
progression of you turning into a vampire.
**[32:19] Tadatsuru**
So that I can come to this side
like this, and guide you...
**[32:23] Tadatsuru**
Since it was right after
I played a despicable character,
**[32:26] Tadatsuru**
I also had to have some assistance
from Hachikuji-chan right there to pull it off.
**[32:31] Mayoi**
I was allowed to assist for this.
***SIGN*** KOYOMI ARARAGI TADATSURU TEORI
**[32:33] Mayoi**

**[32:35] Mayoi**
It shows up
at the end of the ending credits.
***SIGN*** MAYOI HACHIKUJI (CAMEO APPEARANCE)
**[32:39] Koyomi**
*So kill once to reset, and resurrect just
the "human" part of my physical body, huh?*
***SIGN*** IF SO, THEN, IT WOULD'VE BEEN NICE
***SIGN*** IF THEY TOLD ME IN ADVANCE,
***SIGN*** BUT IF THEY DIDN'T TELL ME, THAT MEANS
***SIGN*** THERE WERE CIRCUMSTANCES PREVENTING THEM FROM TELLING ME IN ADVANCE
***SIGN*** THAT PART MAY BE THE TACTIC THEY ARE TAKING AGAINST THE ENEMY
***SIGN*** THERE'S NO WAY FOR ME TO KNOW FROM MY VIEWPOINT.
**[32:55] Tadatsuru**
Of course, if we were to use the demon sword
"Yume Watari" to revive you
**[32:59] Tadatsuru**
after killing you with
the demon sword "Kokoro Watari,"
**[33:02] Tadatsuru**
it may revive you
just the way you were, as a vampire.
**[33:06] Tadatsuru**
That would have put us back
at square one.
**[33:10] Tadatsuru**
In order to not do that, we needed me
**[33:12] Tadatsuru**
to interfere as a specialist
over from the hell side of things.
**[33:17] Tadatsuru**
Without making that correction, there was
nothing we could do against the enemy.
**[33:25] Tadatsuru**
That was the mutual conclusion
that both Gaen-senpai and I came to.
**[33:31] Mayoi**
Let us be on our way, Araragi-san.
**[33:41] Koyomi**
*This thing is alive.*
**[33:50] Koyomi**
Come to think, I hadn't asked yet.
**[33:52] Mayoi**
Yes?
**[33:53] Koyomi**
I was supposedly slain at
North Shirahebi Shrine in the real world.
**[33:57] Koyomi**
Why did I wake up
in that park over in hell?
**[34:00] Mayoi**
That bothers you that much?
**[34:02] Koyomi**
It's not enough to bother me per se, but...
***SIGN*** NO.
***SIGN*** I KNOW. I'M JUST DELAYING.

***SIGN*** I'M DELAYING IT FURTHER AND FURTHER
***SIGN*** PARK
**[34:10] Koyomi**
About the shift, well, I don't care.
**[34:12] Koyomi**
But, if you know what the name
of that park is, I'd like to know.
***SIGN*** NAMISHIRO
**[34:18] Koyomi**
Is it "Namishiro," or "Rouhaku"?
**[34:20] Tadatsuru**
"Shirohebi" Park.
**[34:22] Tadatsuru**
The correct way to read the name
is "Shirohebi" Park, if you go back to its origin.
**[34:26] Koyomi**
Eh? Shirohebi?
***SIGN*** HEBI (SNAKE)
**[34:29] Tadatsuru**
It's not the "insect" radical,
but the "water" radical.
***SIGN*** HEBI
**[34:32] Tadatsuru**
Shirohebi.
***SIGN*** SHIROHEBI
**[34:34] Tadatsuru**
Somewhere along the way,
someone miswrote and HEBI turned into NAMI.
**[34:38] Tadatsuru**
It's why the location became hard to read.
***SIGN*** HEBI
***SIGN*** NAMI
**[34:41] Koyomi**
Wait, "shirohebi"...
**[34:43] Koyomi**
...North "Shirahebi" Shrine.
***SIGN*** NORTH SHIRAHEBI SHRINE
**[34:46] Tadatsuru**
Yup. That's what it means.
**[34:48] Tadatsuru**
Originally, North Shirahebi Shrine
used to be at that location.
**[34:51] Tadatsuru**
That's why that slight shift occurred.
**[34:53] Tadatsuru**
You've heard the story that this shrine
was one that had been relocated, perhaps?
**[34:58] Koyomi**
Yeah, that's—
**[35:01] Koyomi**
I think it was a mistake in connection,
**[35:03] Koyomi**
and became a reason for distortion,
or something.
**[35:06] Tadatsuru**
Right, as it was something like bringing
the god of the seas on top of a mountain.
**[35:11] Tadatsuru**
Though, to be precise, it wasn't a sea but a lake.
**[35:15] Koyomi**
Lake? I think I've heard about that
from someone at some point...
**[35:21] Tadatsuru**
Well, you should
get on your way soon, Araragi-kun.
**[35:25] Tadatsuru**
Please give my regards
to Gaen-senpai. And to Yotsugi.
**[35:29] Tadatsuru**
Please cherish Yotsugi on my behalf as well.
**[35:32] Koyomi**
Yeah, got it.
**[35:35] Koyomi**
But is it all right
for someone like me to resurrect?
***SIGN*** CHAPTER 011
**[35:44] Koyomi**
Hachikuji!
**[35:47] Mayoi**
"Is it all right
for someone like me to resurrect?"
**[35:50] Mayoi**
What kind of a statement is that?
**[35:56] Mayoi**
What, Araragi-san.
Are you chickening out?
**[35:59] Mayoi**
You don't want
to go through difficult ordeals?
**[36:03] Mayoi**
Are you tired of it all?
**[36:09] Koyomi**
No.
**[36:11] Koyomi**
There really was a feeling
like a tense thread snapping.
**[36:16] Koyomi**
I didn't really have the feeling of
"I was finally able to die," either.
**[36:21] Mayoi**
You can only say that because
you don't know the hardships of hell.
**[36:24] Mayoi**
You really are quite fortunate
merely because you can be resurrected.
***SIGN*** FORTUNATE
**[36:31] Koyomi**
But I feel like there are tons of other people
who deserve to be resurrected more than me.
**[36:37] Koyomi**
Is it all right for me to be resurrected?
**[36:40] Koyomi**
It's not that I don't want to be resurrected,
but I feel I'm cutting in line when I shouldn't be.
**[36:46] Mayoi**
You do, indeed!
**[36:47] Mayoi**
You have the right to be resurrected.
**[36:49] Mayoi**
Araragi-san, you have at least
that much of a qualification.
**[36:52] Mayoi**
Because you've done
at least that much to begin with!
**[36:55] Mayoi**
Yes, you have. I know all too well!
**[37:02] Mayoi**
If you're not being resurrected,
who are you saying should be resurrected?
**[37:05] Mayoi**
Without a doubt,
you are the first person in line!
**[37:10] Mayoi**
If you say weak-minded things so much,
I might end up hating you.
**[37:21] Mayoi**
Listen up, Araragi-san.
**[37:23] Mayoi**
The Araragi-san that I know...
**[37:26] Mayoi**
loves girls, loves young girls, loves little girls,
loves the skirt linings, loves women's hips,
**[37:31] Mayoi**
loves big boobs, loves to be handled roughly,
loves his older little sister,
**[37:35] Mayoi**
loves his younger little sister, loves mature women,
loves toplessness, loves bloomers,
**[37:40] Mayoi**
loves school-issued swimsuits,
loves class reps,
**[37:42] Mayoi**
loves girls who use "boku,"
loves cat ears, loves girls playing sports...
**[37:46] Koyomi**
Hold on a second.
**[37:47] Koyomi**
Hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it!
**[37:49] Koyomi**
My heart is about to completely snap right now.
**[37:54] Mayoi**
And you were someone who loves to be alive.
***SIGN*** IT WAS SO OBVIOUS THAT I HAD FORGOTTEN.

You're right.
**[38:06] Koyomi**
If I'm not alive, I can't cherish girls at all.
**[38:10] Mayoi**
Uhm, no, that's not exactly
what I wanted to tell you.
**[38:16] Koyomi**
To say there was a shift
in the meaning of life...
**[38:20] Koyomi**
There was plenty of meaning
merely by staying alive.
**[38:31] Koyomi**
If you love being alive,
that's all you really needed.
**[38:36] Koyomi**
Because I was able to love
all sorts of things, and people.
**[38:40] Mayoi**
When you say that in this context,
it may be a bit misleading.
**[38:46] Tadatsuru**
If I give the signal from this end, Gaen-senpai
will pull you up from her end. That's about it.
**[38:53] Koyomi**
Got it.
**[38:54] Koyomi**
I'm much obliged, Tadatsuru.
**[38:58] Koyomi**
Tadatsuru-san.
**[38:59] Tadatsuru**
No need to be formal
after all we've been through.
**[39:02] Tadatsuru**
As long as you continue to attempt protecting
Kiss-shot Acerola-orion Heart-under-blade,
**[39:07] Tadatsuru**
...you will be my enemy.
**[39:11] Koyomi**
Even then, I'm much obliged
for this particular case.
**[39:15] Koyomi**
I never thought I'd be able
to chat with you like this.
**[39:19] Koyomi**
Someday, when we have time,
I'd like to settle down and talk with you again.
**[39:25] Tadatsuru**
If you don't mind doing so
while we kill each other.
**[39:31] Koyomi**
Hachikuji.
What are you going to do from here?
**[39:34] Mayoi**
What?
**[39:35] Mayoi**
Me? After I see you off, Araragi-san,
**[39:39] Mayoi**
I'm going back to the banks of hell
to pile stones up every day.
**[39:42] Mayoi**
Perhaps I may reincarnate as the child
of you and Senjyogahara-san.
**[39:48] Koyomi**
That's pretty heavy.
**[39:50] Mayoi**
Now then.
**[39:55] Koyomi**
I'm good. Send me off at any time.
**[39:58] Tadatsuru**
Then, let's countdown.
**[40:01] Tadatsuru**
10... 9...
**[40:03] Tadatsuru**
8...
**[40:04] Tadatsuru**
7...
**[40:05] Tadatsuru**
6...
**[40:06] Tadatsuru**
5...
**[40:07] Tadatsuru**
4... 3...
**[40:09] Tadatsuru**
2...
**[40:10] Tadatsuru**
1...
**[40:11] Tadatsuru**
Ignition.
**[40:18] Koyomi**
*That's right. Hachikuji said the first person
who should be resurrected is me.*
**[40:23] Koyomi**
*But, at the least, I am being
resurrected by shoving Hachikuji aside.*
**[40:29] Koyomi**
*To part with Mayoi Hachikuji...*
**[40:32] Koyomi**
*How many times does this make?*
**[40:35] Koyomi**
*H-Hachikuji!*
**[40:46] Tadatsuru**
Oh, Araragi-kun, one more thing!
**[40:50] Tadatsuru**
I'll tell you the name of the "enemy"
who requested me to exterminate you!
**[40:57] Tadatsuru**
Ougi.
**[40:59] Tadatsuru**
Ougi Oshino.
***SIGN*** CHAPTER 012
**[41:05] Koyomi**
*This is the epilogue,
or the punch line for this episode.*
**[41:16] Izuko**
Really...
**[41:17] Izuko**
To bring Hachikuji-chan with you, Koyomin.
**[41:20] Izuko**
You always are someone who goes
way beyond any of my expectations.
**[41:25] Izuko**
But for now, Koyomin,
**[41:27] Izuko**
can you please ask this scary,
beautiful lady to pull back her claws?
**[41:32] Kiss-shot**
Hey, you.
**[41:37] Kiss-shot**
Hmph. Well, I guess both needless killings
and futile gashes have been avoided.
**[41:42] Kiss-shot**
Though, it was the first time for me
to see "Yume Watari" activate.
**[42:08] Kiss-shot**
You fool, you made me worry.
**[42:11] Kiss-shot**
And, you abducted a young girl from hell.
You really are reckless.
**[42:20] Koyomi**
Hey, Shinobu. This is really bad
no matter how you think about it, right?
**[42:24] Koyomi**
Did once again, Hachikuji fulfill the conditions
for the "darkness" to be triggered?
**[42:28] Izuko**
And I'm saying that's why
you made a fine play, Koyomin.
**[42:32] Izuko**
Thanks to Koyomin's miracle here,
**[42:35] Izuko**
it looks like we'll be able to take
a slight advantage in the battles to come.
**[42:38] Izuko**
The lost girl.
She's a pawn that I had been wanting.
**[42:43] Izuko**
But with how things are turning out,
**[42:44] Izuko**
it looks like I must request help
for a little while longer.
**[42:53] Izuko**
For now, Koyomin, I want you
to head over to your entrance exams.
**[42:57] Izuko**
If you head over now, you'll still make it.
**[42:59] Izuko**
Do your best.
**[43:00] Koyomi**
Well, I will do my best.
**[43:06] Izuko**
Koyomin, I'll have you working for me
starting tomorrow.
**[43:09] Izuko**
Everything will be over
before the graduation ceremony.
**[43:12] Izuko**
I have all of my weapons now.
**[43:14] Izuko**
Let's settle the score, Koyomin.
**[43:17] Izuko**
Strangely enough, tomorrow is White Day, right?
**[43:20] Izuko**
It's the perfect timing to end the story of this town,
where a white snake once reigned.
**[43:27] Izuko**
We're starting our counterattack!
