**[00:09] Koyomi**
*I truly love Hitagi Senjyogahara.*
**[00:11] Koyomi**
*I can say so without shame.*
**[00:14] Koyomi**
* However, to think that I would actually feel*
* about someone else in this manner...*
**[00:20] Koyomi**
* ...was something that would never*
* cross my mind a year ago.*
**[00:24] Koyomi**
* To love someone else...*
* was something I feared.*
**[00:29] Koyomi**
* Then why was I so cowardly about*
* loving someone like that?*
**[00:38] Koyomi**
* That is a simple, straightforward story.*
* It was just a self-preservation instinct.*
**[00:44] Koyomi**
* I loved who I was,*
* and I was afraid of losing that.*
**[00:47] Koyomi**
*I was scared of changing.*
**[00:49] Koyomi**
*I was scared of being changed.*
**[00:56] Koyomi**
* If I don't abandon the*
* foundation of narcissism,*
**[00:59] Koyomi**
* I can't possibly love anyone*
* other than myself.*
**[01:04] Koyomi**
* For this one point, perhaps Hitagi*
* Senjyogahara feels more strongly about it than I do.*
**[01:10] Koyomi**
*And, I think that's perfectly fine.*
**[01:13] Koyomi**
*Her affection is... probably...*
**[01:15] Koyomi**
* ...too heavy a burden to*
* point just at herself.*
**[01:18] Koyomi**
* It's just about right when*
* she shares it with me.*
**[01:21] Koyomi**
*After imagining that far, I had a thought.*
**[01:24] Koyomi**
*I truly love Hitagi Senjyogahara.*
**[01:27] Koyomi**
* And I can say so without*
* shame... but in return,*
**[01:31] Koyomi**
* from some point, perhaps I*
* have lost my narcissism.*
**[01:35] Koyomi**
* Sure enough, am I able to love*
* myself just like I love her?*
**[01:41] Koyomi**
*If that is not the case...*
**[01:45] Koyomi**
*I am as good as dead as a human.*
***SIGN*** Part One
***SIGN*** March 13th
**[01:55] Hitagi**
We're going on a date.
**[01:58] Hitagi**
That's not it. That's not how it goes.
**[02:00] Koyomi**
N-Not it?
**[02:02] Hitagi**
Well, it's been quite a while since the last
time I had a proper appearance like this,
**[02:05] Hitagi**
so I've forgotten what
my character is like.
**[02:10] Hitagi**
Date me.
**[02:14] Koyomi**
I-Isn't your character straying
off course, Senjyogahara-san?
**[02:17] Hitagi**
Tomorrow. Let us use the day called
tomorrow to its full potential,
**[02:21] Hitagi**
and go on a date worth six
months' time, Araragi-kun.
**[02:23] Hitagi**
Do you understand what I am talking about?
**[02:27] Koyomi**
No, unfortunately, not at all...
**[02:29] ---**
Recording
**[02:30] Hitagi**
Then, I will explain it to you, much
like the supplementary audio channel.
**[02:35] Hitagi**
First off, thank you for all
the hard work, Araragi-kun.
**[02:37] ---**
Araragi
**[02:38] Hitagi**
You gave so much effort until today, so
even if it doesn't lead to good results,
**[02:42] Hitagi**
you shouldn't feel ashamed.
**[02:44] Hitagi**
You have already completed your mission.
**[02:46] Koyomi**
Can you stop moving along on the
premise that I don't get accepted?
**[02:49] Koyomi**
That's not kindness, but consolation.
**[02:51] Koyomi**
Don't set up foreshadowing for consolation.
I haven't said anything yet.
**[02:55] Koyomi**
It's not over until the results are out.
**[02:57] Hitagi**
No, it is already over.
**[02:59] Hitagi**
Your battle ended right here.
**[03:05] Hitagi**
And so...
**[03:06] Hitagi**
I have been voluntarily refraining
from dates for the past
**[03:09] Hitagi**
six months or so, and want to resume them.
**[03:11] Hitagi**
That is what I am desiring, Araragi-kun.
**[03:15] Hitagi**
I will use all the points I
have saved up until now.
**[03:17] Hitagi**
Strangely enough, tomorrow is
March 14th, White Day.
**[03:21] Hitagi**
It is an anniversary perfectly
suited for a date.
**[03:25] Hitagi**
You just thought how you hated
anniversaries right now, didn't you?
***SIGN*** How did that come across even when I'm silent?
***SIGN*** Can telepathy really be this one-sided?
**[03:34] Hitagi**
Our graduation ceremony is the day
after tomorrow, Araragi-kun.
***SIGN*** Monday, March 13th
**[03:37] Hitagi**
In other words, the way we are now,
**[03:39] Hitagi**
we will end our blossoming days in
high school with hardly any dates.
***SIGN*** Naoetsu High
**[03:43] Hitagi**
Isn't that just too sad a thing?
**[03:45] Koyomi**
Well, if you put it that way...
**[03:48] Hitagi**
That's why.
**[03:49] Hitagi**
We are going to go on enough
dates for the past six months'
**[03:51] Hitagi**
worth in one fell swoop
tomorrow, Araragi-kun.
**[03:53] Hitagi**
In other words, it's the
abridged "digest" version.
**[03:55] Hitagi**
We are going to execute the highlight
reel of our high school life.
**[03:58] Koyomi**
Highlight reel...?
***SIGN*** The main portion doesn't even exist - how are you going to create a digest version of it?
**[04:01] Hitagi**
I've already got the scoop
on you, Araragi-kun.
**[04:04] Koyomi**
Eh?
**[04:05] Hitagi**
Araragi-kun, your body somehow
has recovered, so I hear?
**[04:09] Koyomi**
Oh, well...
**[04:11] Hitagi**
So for you, Araragi-kun,
all your pending issues,
**[04:13] Hitagi**
both the entrance exams and your
physical body, are done, yes?
**[04:16] Hitagi**
It means that they have come
to a conclusion, right?
**[04:19] Hitagi**
Then, there should be no reason why you
should hesitate in going out on a date with me.
**[04:23] Hitagi**
If there's any time to resolve the status
of lacking dates, that time is now.
**[04:27] Koyomi**
Status of lacking dates?
**[04:30] Hitagi**
And so, you should go on a
date with me, Araragi-kun.
**[04:37] Koyomi**
I get it, Senjyogahara.
**[04:39] Koyomi**
It'll be more of the wrap-up ending
than a highlight reel...
**[04:41] Koyomi**
Let's use the day tomorrow to its fullest,
and go on six months' worth of dates.
**[04:45] Hitagi**
Oh, I'm sorry. The full day is a bit much...
**[04:49] Hitagi**
I have something I need
to do in the evening.
**[04:51] Koyomi**
Eh?
**[04:52] Hitagi**
So, it's more like early in the morning
until late afternoon, or something like that.
**[05:00] Hitagi**
It's fine. All plans are already in here.
***SIGN*** I'd be lying if I said that...
***SIGN*** ...I didn't feel a vague sense of anxiety.
**[05:07] Koyomi**
Roger, roger... Araragi, roger that.
**[05:09] Koyomi**
By the way, what's this that you
need to do in the evening?
**[05:14] Hitagi**
See, tomorrow is White Day, right?
**[05:17] Hitagi**
So I'm going out to dinner
with Father in the evening.
**[05:24] Yotsugi**
Date? Tomorrow?
**[05:26] Yotsugi**
Come on now, you should tell me
these things a bit earlier.
**[05:29] Yotsugi**
It's a bit rushed.
**[05:30] Yotsugi**
I have my own circumstances, too.
**[05:33] Yotsugi**
But well, it can't be helped.
**[05:35] Yotsugi**
This is for Devilish Big Brother's
sake. I'll somehow make some time.
**[05:38] Koyomi**
Wait, why are you speaking on the
premise that you are tagging along?
**[05:41] Koyomi**
What kind of position are you taking?
**[05:45] Yotsugi**
What is it?
**[05:46] Yotsugi**
Devilish Big Brother. Big
Demo-ther for short.
**[05:49] Yotsugi**
You are staring at my face.
**[05:51] Yotsugi**
Is there anything stuck (tsuku) on my
face? After all, I'm a Tsukumo-gami.
**[05:55] Koyomi**
Well, hold on a second.
**[05:56] Koyomi**
Ononoki-chan, I have a serious topic
to talk about. You have a moment?
**[05:59] Yotsugi**
I am always serious. I have never had any
conversation that was not serious.
**[06:03] Yotsugi**
Being serious (majime) got so bad that they
called me Grapevine Stretch (manji-gatame).
**[06:08] Yotsugi**
I see.
**[06:10] Koyomi**
Come on. You don't feel anything after
hearing tales of Tadatsuru, one of your creators?
**[06:15] Koyomi**
He told me to send you his regards.
**[06:17] Yotsugi**
Not really. I told you, right?
**[06:20] Yotsugi**
Don't ask me to harbor
such humanly emotions.
**[06:23] Yotsugi**
Even if he was dead to begin with, even if he's
immortal in some way, even if he's a living doll,
**[06:28] Yotsugi**
that doesn't change the implications
of what I have done.
**[06:31] Yotsugi**
Not for the implications
on you, Big Demo-ther.
**[06:34] Yotsugi**
However, there are other
important matters for me.
***SIGN*** I can't keep from speaking about her master, Kagenui-san.
**[06:38] Yotsugi**
Kiss-shot Acerola-orion Heart-under-blade
has fully revived.
**[06:44] Yotsugi**
Let's hear the details about that.
**[06:47] Yotsugi**
That is something that directly
relates to my own safety.
**[06:54] Yotsugi**
I had thought she was a young
girl that were some dregs,
**[06:56] Yotsugi**
so I've been merciless with the insults.
**[06:59] Yotsugi**
But, if she is back to her complete self, I
have to alter that attitude drastically.
**[07:05] Yotsugi**
Big Demo-ther.
**[07:06] Yotsugi**
Can you teach me how to speak politely?
**[07:07] ---**
Black Scene
**[07:09] Yotsugi**
Is Heart-under-blade-sama taking a drink
(kikoshi-mesu) within that shadow?
**[07:12] Koyomi**
You're using the phrase
"kikoshi-mesu" wrong.
***SIGN*** I'm guessing that the intended question was whether or not she was lurking inside the shadow.
**[07:17] Koyomi**
No, she's not here.
**[07:21] Koyomi**
Shinobu is with Gaen-san
together with Hachikuji.
**[07:25] Koyomi**
A meeting, or rather, a discussion,
about what to do from here on.
**[07:28] Yotsugi**
"What to do from here on"
arouses my interest.
**[07:31] Yotsugi**
After all, Big Demo-ther, you finally were
able to return to being a normal guy.
**[07:35] Yotsugi**
What, are you still going to
do something from here on?
**[07:38] Yotsugi**
Even if it is exactly what Gaen-san wants?
**[07:40] Koyomi**
Well, concerning that case, I don't
think I gave a clear answer...
**[07:45] Koyomi**
Besides, there's the bit
about Kagenui-san, too.
***SIGN*** Yoduru Kagenui
***SIGN*** And—Meme Oshino. Where are they now?
**[07:51] Yotsugi**
If it's about Big Brother Oshino, isn't he
just leading his usual wandering lifestyle?
**[07:57] Koyomi**
We've gone this far to search for him, but
he's still nowhere to be found, you know?
**[08:01] Koyomi**
Even the Hanekawa is searching,
and can't find him, right?
***SIGN*** Yeah. The girl that doesn't run everything...
***SIGN*** No, that doesn't know everything.
**[08:05] Yotsugi**
It's not like that person is a professional
at finding people or anything.
**[08:09] Yotsugi**
Well, I have no intent on meddling
in how you think, Big Demo-ther.
**[08:13] Yotsugi**
By the way, in the case of Big Sister,
**[08:15] Yotsugi**
I deduce that she went on a trip to
perfect her martial arts skills.
**[08:18] Koyomi**
But Ononoki-chan, what will you do if
Kagenui-san is gone like this and never returns?
**[08:23] Koyomi**
What happens if Kagenui-san
doesn't come to pick you up?
**[08:25] Yotsugi**
In that case...
**[08:27] Yotsugi**
I guess I'd have to be
in this house forever.
**[08:29] Yotsugi**
Of course, Big Demo-ther, if you
get married and leave this house,
**[08:32] Yotsugi**
I'll tag along to wherever you go.
**[08:34] Koyomi**
Don't be putting up some
preposterous plan for your life.
**[08:36] Koyomi**
What do you mean, "of course (touzen)"?
**[08:38] Yotsugi**
Would it have been better to say
"astonishingly (gakuzen)"?
**[08:40] Yotsugi**
But still, Big Demo-ther, watching over you is
the task that I am currently assigned to do.
**[08:45] Yotsugi**
Until I am relieved of that, I can't
possibly separate myself from you.
**[08:48] Yotsugi**
In other words...
**[08:49] Yotsugi**
If Big Sister is gone like
this and never returns,
**[08:52] Yotsugi**
Big Demo-ther, you and I will
be in an eternal fellowship.
**[08:55] Koyomi**
Eternal...
***SIGN*** Back to the main story
**[08:57] Yotsugi**
By the way, Big Demo-ther.
**[09:00] Yotsugi**
By the way, by the way, Big Demo-ther.
**[09:02] Yotsugi**
How in the world did those
college entrance exams go?
**[09:04] Koyomi**
Well, I did what I could. You did take
care of me, so thank you for that.
**[09:09] Yotsugi**
You're welcome.
**[09:10] Yotsugi**
Were the results being announced after the
graduation ceremony, or beforehand?
**[09:13] Koyomi**
After.
**[09:15] Yotsugi**
Hmm, then it may be a good idea to
have the date sooner than later.
**[09:19] Yotsugi**
After all, it'd be hard to go out
after one of the two gets rejected.
**[09:24] Koyomi**
* I would like to think Senjyogahara didn't set*
* the date to be tomorrow from such an intent...*
**[09:34] Tsukihi**
Big Brother!
**[09:35] Tsukihi**
You took one of the plushies from
my room again, didn't you!?
**[09:38] Tsukihi**
Oh!
**[09:40] Tsukihi**
Here it is! Just as I thought!
**[09:41] Tsukihi**
Geez, stop it already. Don't enter
my room without permission!
**[09:44] Tsukihi**
You have it lying on your bed and stuff.
**[09:46] Tsukihi**
You weren't using it for weird things
or anything, were you, Big Brother?
**[09:49] Tsukihi**
This is my precious plushie.
**[09:51] Koyomi**
No, it wouldn't even be exaggerating
if I said I was entertaining it...
**[09:55] Tsukihi**
I'm not the type that has a
lot of plushies and stuff.
**[09:59] Tsukihi**
But for some reason, I feel sympathy
for this particular plushie.
**[10:03] Tsukihi**
That's why I've told you again and
again that you can't take it out!
**[10:07] Koyomi**
Sympathy, huh?
**[10:09] Tsukihi**
Big Brother, you were home.
**[10:11] Tsukihi**
Now that entrance exams are over,
you can play as much as you want!
**[10:15] Tsukihi**
Big Brother is going to be in
college from next month, huh?
**[10:18] Tsukihi**
That's cause for celebration! I'll
prepare for a celebration!
**[10:21] Tsukihi**
Tonight, we'll gather all the neighborhood
middle school girls, and have a party!
**[10:24] Koyomi**
So optimistic...
**[10:25] Koyomi**
Hm... That's not a bad proposal,
**[10:28] Koyomi**
but unfortunately, I already have
an appointment for tomorrow.
**[10:30] Koyomi**
But, if it's sometime this month,
I can manage to make some time.
**[10:34] Tsukihi**
Oh, Big Brother, you've gained
some composure now.
**[10:38] Tsukihi**
Until a short while ago,
**[10:39] Tsukihi**
when your little sister invited you to go
play, you just punched her on the spot.
**[10:43] Koyomi**
Was I that raging a big brother?
**[10:45] Tsukihi**
Then, we'll say sometime this month.
**[10:47] Koyomi**
Yeah. I'll leave you to do the planning.
**[10:50] Tsukihi**
I see, but Big Brother's going on a date
with Senjyogahara-san tomorrow, huh.
**[10:55] Tsukihi**
I'm jealous that you're so lovey-dovey..
**[10:57] Tsukihi**
I've been dating Rousokuzawa-kun for so
long that we've basically settled down.
**[11:02] Tsukihi**
Or rather, he invited me to go
out somewhere for White Day...
**[11:04] Tsukihi**
...but for some reason or
another, I declined.
**[11:07] Koyomi**
Wait, huh? Did I tell you that my prior
appointment was with Senjyogahara?
**[11:12] Tsukihi**
I can tell even if you didn't tell me.
**[11:14] Tsukihi**
A prior appointment on March 14th means that
it's with a lover, or with Einstein.
**[11:19] Koyomi**
If it was with Einstein, that
would be a huge deal!
**[11:24] Koyomi**
Well, you're right.
**[11:25] Tsukihi**
All right, then tomorrow I'll
go visit Nadeko-chan.
**[11:31] Tsukihi**
She got released from the hospital, but
she's still resting up back at home.
**[11:35] Tsukihi**
Apparently, she'll start going
to school in the new term.
**[11:38] Tsukihi**
I'm sure she's lonely if she's
cooped up all alone in the house,
**[11:40] Tsukihi**
so I should go over and be really rowdy!
**[11:43] Koyomi**
You're going there pretty often.
**[11:46] Koyomi**
To be honest, it's unexpected.
**[11:47] Koyomi**
Even if you said you were friends,
**[11:49] Koyomi**
you and Sengoku didn't give me an image
that you were that good friends.
**[11:53] Tsukihi**
That's not true. We're
totally best friends!
**[11:58] Tsukihi**
She told me a secret the other day, too.
**[12:01] Koyomi**
A secret? What's that?
**[12:03] Tsukihi**
It's a secret, so of course
I won't tell you.
**[12:06] Koyomi**
Eh?
**[12:08] Tsukihi**
Now, now... Leave Nadeko-chan to me,
**[12:11] Tsukihi**
and Big Brother, you can just go
lovey-dovey with Senjyogahara-san!
***SIGN*** March 14th

Black Scene
**[12:34] Hitagi**
Welcome to a wonderful today.
**[12:37] Hitagi**
I tried to be conscious of
the old Hanekawa-san.
**[12:40] Koyomi**
Your sense of friendship
is a bit too big a burden...
**[12:43] Hitagi**
Even for you, Araragi-kun,
**[12:45] Hitagi**
doesn't it make you happier if I got myself
closer to what Hanekawa-san is like?
**[12:50] Koyomi**
That's another heavy statement there...
**[12:52] Hitagi**
Now, let's go. I have to
be back here by 7:00PM.
**[12:57] Hitagi**
I can't be late for my appointment with
Father, so we have to hurry things a bit..
**[13:01] Hitagi**
We don't have a moment to spare!
**[13:03] Koyomi**
Um, can you not have your dinner with
your father tonight be your main event for today?
**[13:08] Koyomi**
It's okay if it's the main event for you,
**[13:09] Koyomi**
but please don't bring it to words.
**[13:12] Hitagi**
Heh.
**[13:13] Hitagi**
Then, why don't you quiet
me down with a kiss?
**[13:20] Hitagi**
Now, go into the passenger seat.
**[13:23] Koyomi**
Eh?
**[13:25] Koyomi**
Eeh?
**[13:26] Koyomi**
Eeeeehh?
**[13:28] Koyomi**
Waitgahara-san,
**[13:29] Koyomi**
Wait, wait, wait, wait!
**[13:31] Koyomi**
Perhaps it may be, but can it be that
you're driving the car today!?
**[13:37] Koyomi**
You're going to be controlling
the steering wheel?
**[13:39] Koyomi**
Hitagi Drivergahara!?
**[13:42] Hitagi**
Ta-dee-dah!
***SIGN*** Name: Hitagi Senjyogahara
***SIGN*** Valid Until August 7th
**[13:45] Hitagi**
Hehe, were you surprised?
**[13:47] Hitagi**
Araragi-kun, while you were feverishly
studying for entrance exams,
**[13:50] Hitagi**
I was also studying hard for the exam
to obtain a driver's license, too.
**[13:56] Hitagi**
Got it on the first shot.
**[13:59] Koyomi**
Y-Y-You know your school rules!?
**[14:02] Koyomi**
Not only would acceptance to a college
by recommendation be cancelled,
**[14:05] Koyomi**
this level of barbarism will cast
shadows on graduation, too.
**[14:08] Koyomi**
In the first place, Senjyogahara,
why did you do such a thing?
**[14:12] Hitagi**
I mean, I didn't have to go
to school for the third term,
**[14:15] Hitagi**
so I was bored, so bored,
that I couldn't help it.
***SIGN*** An idle brain is the devil's shop.
**[14:19] Hitagi**
Besides, see? Araragi-kun, you probably wouldn't
be able to obtain a driver's license,
**[14:22] ---**
so I thought I'd get ahead.
**[14:27] Hitagi**
Well, in the end that turned out to be
unnecessary anxiety for me, it seems.
**[14:32] ---**
Photo Booth
**[14:32] Koyomi**
Until yesterday, one symptom of the physical
advancement of my vampiric nature...
**[14:36] Koyomi**
...caused me to not show
up in photographs.
***SIGN*** Test #
**[14:40] Koyomi**
That means I would not be able to have
a driver's license issued to me...
***SIGN*** Name: Koyomi Araragi
**[14:44] Koyomi**
And so for that aspect, Senjyogahara was
being attentive in her own way, I guess.
**[14:49] Koyomi**
When I think about it that way, it was
misconduct that was hard for me to scold her for.
**[14:53] ---**
Black Scene
**[14:53] Koyomi**
No, wait, that just can't be.
**[14:55] Koyomi**
Don't think that I'd get
moved by emotions.
**[14:58] Koyomi**
I won't be moved by affection, either.
**[15:02] Koyomi**
If you become unable to graduate, that
would mean you had the wrong priorities.
**[15:05] Hitagi**
If that happens, I'll break
up with you, Araragi-kun,
**[15:07] Hitagi**
and be chummy with Kanbaru,
so I'll be fine.
**[15:10] Koyomi**
Don't nonchalantly say that
you'll break up with me.
**[15:12] Koyomi**
And Kanbaru would surely get
slightly bewildered by that,
**[15:14] Koyomi**
if she ends up in the same class as you.
**[15:17] Hitagi**
I think she'd rejoice
in a carefree manner.
**[15:22] Koyomi**
It seems like I'm the one
that has to compromise.
**[15:26] Hitagi**
Araragi-kun, you're the one that needs
to remember to fasten your seatbelt.
**[15:31] Koyomi**
Yeah, I know...
**[15:33] Koyomi**
I don't have enough courage to ride with someone
who just got their license without a seatbelt.
**[15:37] Koyomi**
Normally I'm called a raging bull,
but for today, I'm a chicken.
***SIGN*** BABY ON BOARD
**[15:41] Koyomi**
If possible, I'd even like
to be in a child-seat.
**[15:46] Koyomi**
So, where is our destination?
**[15:49] Hitagi**
The planetarium.
**[15:52] Koyomi**
Planetarium?
**[15:54] Hitagi**
Yes. Planetarium.
**[16:23] Hitagi**
Oh, by the way, Araragi-kun.
**[16:25] Hitagi**
I received a phone call from
Hanekawa-san last night.
**[16:27] Koyomi**
Eh? Really?
**[16:29] Hitagi**
Yes. It was something about somehow being
able to make it back for graduation.
**[16:33] Koyomi**
I see...
**[16:37] Koyomi**
It feels like I haven't seen Hanekawa
in quite a long time now.
**[16:43] Koyomi**
What? That means that she called
you, but she didn't call me?
**[16:49] Hitagi**
Right.
**[16:50] Hitagi**
I wonder why Hanekawa-san
didn't call Araragi-kun.
**[16:54] Hitagi**
Perhaps it was because I told her
that I'll tell you for her.
**[16:59] Koyomi**
No other reason can be thought of!
***SIGN*** "Tsubasa Hanekawa-sama, The weather has been warming up lately. How have you been doing? I have acknowledged your intent to attend the Naoetsu High School Graduation Ceremony on 3/14. I am very pleased that we will be able to share in the joy of that day together. (Excised) Note that I will tell all parties involved, particularly Koyomi Araragi, about this, so no need to worry. (Excised) So Please do not contact Koyomi Araragi yourself. Thank you. PS: Please do not called Araragi-kun Directly"
**[17:01] Hitagi**
Specifically, it might be because I asked
her to not call you, Araragi-kun.
**[17:05] Koyomi**
You went that far? You said something that
specific? Why did you do such a thing?
***SIGN*** Petition
***SIGN*** Petition
***SIGN*** Petition
**[17:11] Hitagi**
Oh, that's right. I had been given a message
by Hanekawa-san to convey to you.
**[17:15] Koyomi**
Convey?
***SIGN*** That's some mysterious polite talk.
**[17:17] Hitagi**
She said she found Oshino-san.
**[17:20] Koyomi**
Hmm...
**[17:21] Koyomi**
Huh!?
**[17:25] Koyomi**
Seriously?
**[17:26] Hitagi**
Seriously.
**[17:27] Hitagi**
Well, to be precise, the story was that she
found out where Oshino-san was hiding...
**[17:32] Hitagi**
Though, I don't remember it too well.
**[17:34] Koyomi**
I beg of you, please remember.
Give it everything you got.
**[17:39] Hitagi**
Though, she said after many deductions,
**[17:41] Hitagi**
Oshino-san's possible whereabouts were
narrowed down to two locations.
**[17:45] Koyomi**
Two locations?
**[17:46] Hitagi**
Yes. I wasn't interested so I didn't ask about the
details. But that's definitely what she had said.
**[17:52] Hitagi**
I wonder what it was.
**[17:56] Hitagi**
She said it was the reverse.
**[17:58] Koyomi**
Reverse?
**[17:59] Hitagi**
Yes. That her approach was the reverse.
**[18:02] Koyomi**
Reverse? What does that mean?
**[18:05] Hitagi**
She was making remarks such as
"This is a pen" or something.
**[18:08] Koyomi**
Making remarks?
**[18:10] Koyomi**
"This is a pen"?
***SIGN*** There is much to think about,
***SIGN*** and I'm still worried,
***SIGN*** but it seems there's nothing I can do in my current state.
**[18:17] Koyomi**
What other stuff did you
talk about with Hanekawa?
**[18:20] Koyomi**
Did she say anything other
than the bit about Oshino?
**[18:22] Hitagi**
Let's see. I consulted with her
about my plans for today's date.
**[18:26] Hitagi**
I'll confess.
**[18:28] Hitagi**
Actually, it was Hanekawa-san's
idea that it would be good
**[18:30] Hitagi**
to first head over to a planetarium.
**[18:32] Koyomi**
Is that so?
**[18:34] Hitagi**
Personally, a planetarium is a place
where I frequently go to begin with.
**[18:38] Hitagi**
So, for me, it doesn't feel like
much of a special event.
**[18:42] Hitagi**
But, it's rather stylish to go
together with you, Araragi-kun.
**[18:46] Koyomi**
Hmm... But, that said, wouldn't it be a date
that's lacking in amusement for you?
**[18:52] Hitagi**
Well, when I go to a planetarium,
it's not for leisure,
**[18:56] Hitagi**
and the side about learning
something tends to kick in...
**[18:59] Hitagi**
Once in a while, I'd like to head into seeing
artificial stars without mentally preparing to do so.
**[19:03] Hitagi**
It's not a case where I lack enthusiasm,
either. So, rest assured in that aspect as well.
**[19:07] Koyomi**
The side about learning
something? Oh, I see.
**[19:11] Koyomi**
You were rather acrobatic for
being a student at our school...
**[19:15] Koyomi**
in selecting geoscience for
your science elective.
***SIGN*** I must say, I don't even know what people study in the field of geoscience...
***SIGN*** For Senjyogahara, who cherishes memories of going to the observatory with her family when she was young,
***SIGN*** it seems that she has special emotions invested into celestial bodies after all.
**[19:24] Koyomi**
I want to know something.
**[19:26] Koyomi**
Senjyogahara, what do you
study in geoscience?
**[19:29] Koyomi**
It's not like you simply learn all
about celestial bodies, right?
**[19:33] Hitagi**
To be precise, it's an abbreviated
form of "earth sciences".
***SIGN*** Earth Sciences
**[19:37] Hitagi**
In other words, we mainly learn about
Earth as a celestial body, I guess.
**[19:41] Hitagi**
I can't help it that my fascination points
towards the entire universe, though.
**[19:46] Hitagi**
Someday, I'd like to draw the perfect space
map, and be dubbed Tadataka Inou the Second.
**[19:51] Hitagi**
That's my dream.
**[19:52] Koyomi**
Tadataka Inou the Second...
**[19:55] Hitagi**
That is what I want to do in college.
***SIGN*** This is the first I've heard of this.
***SIGN*** But my girlfriend is striving to become an astronaut...
***SIGN*** Is that for real?
**[20:00] Koyomi**
More like, what's a space
map? Such a thing exists?
**[20:05] Hitagi**
Most of space is a vacuum,
and galaxies, groups of stars,
**[20:09] Hitagi**
are sporadically placed in it.
**[20:12] Hitagi**
Probability-wise, it seems like stars are
dispersed equally within the vacuum,
**[20:17] Hitagi**
but in reality nothing like that happens.
**[20:19] Hitagi**
The stars clump up, and exist
terribly out of balance.
**[20:22] Hitagi**
Drawing that into a diagram
is a space map.
**[20:26] Hitagi**
Perhaps stars are like people,
and easily feels loneliness.
**[20:33] Koyomi**
You talk like this is a lesson,
**[20:34] Koyomi**
but I've never seen an actual space map, so
it just doesn't click with me at all...
**[20:39] Hitagi**
By the way, a space map is not a square like
a map of the world, or a map of Japan.
**[20:45] Hitagi**
It's in the shape of a hand fan (ougi).
**[20:49] Koyomi**
Ougi...
**[20:50] Koyomi**
To that word, I... don't react.
***SIGN*** Part Two
**[21:07] Ougi**
Yes, yes, hello there, Araragi-senpai.
**[21:11] Ougi**
This is Ougi Oshino.
**[21:12] Ougi**
Now today, we will be studying
about constellations.
**[21:17] Koyomi**
* I realized right away*
* that this was a dream.*
**[21:23] Ougi**
For Araragi-senpai, who lives in Japan, the
constellations in the southern skies may be difficult.
**[21:29] Ougi**
Though my rival, Hanekawa-senpai, may perhaps
be looking at them now from around Australia.
**[21:36] Ougi**
No, but really,
**[21:37] Ougi**
the southern hemisphere has many unfamiliar
constellations, so it is amusing.
**[21:42] Ougi**
There is Chameleon over that way.
**[21:45] Ougi**
There's also Pictor (easel) and Vela (sail).
**[21:48] Ougi**
There's even a constellation
called Hydrus (water snake).
***SIGN*** Water Snake
***SIGN*** Snake—with a "water" radical
**[21:52] Ougi**
I guess it's what we would call
the Hydra (sea snake).
**[21:56] Ougi**
Surely you know of this one, the Hydra?
**[21:59] Ougi**
It's the biggest of the 88 constellations.
**[22:03] Ougi**
Though, it's difficult to determine how the
size of a constellation is measured.
**[22:11] Ougi**
When you think of it three-dimensionally,
it pretty much falls apart.
**[22:14] Ougi**
However, the presence
that this Hydra has...
**[22:18] Ougi**
...reminds one of Kiss-shot
Acerola-orion Heart-under-blade.
**[22:25] Ougi**
They call the creature
in Hydra a "sea snake",
**[22:28] Ougi**
but it actually points to
the legendary hydras.
**[22:32] Ougi**
Do you know what a hydra is?
**[22:33] Ougi**
It's not an exaggeration
to say it's immortal.
**[22:36] Ougi**
It's a monster that keeps regenerating
no matter how much you cut off.
**[22:40] Ougi**
The one that defeats that hydra is
the famous, courageous Heracles.
**[22:47] Ougi**
You probably cannot defeat Kiss-shot
Acerola-orion Heart-under-blade with this method,
**[22:53] Ougi**
but he chopped the nine heads
of the hydra one by one,
**[22:56] Ougi**
and burnt the cut sections shut with a
flame to prevent them from regenerating.
**[23:02] Ougi**
As a side note, during this fight
between Heracles and the hydra,
**[23:06] Ougi**
the crab from Cancer sided with the
hydra and attacked Heracles.
**[23:12] Ougi**
It used its big claws you know
of to cut at Heracles.
**[23:16] Ougi**
Its attitude of challenging a giant
enemy with a small weapon is,
**[23:19] Ougi**
in fact, Senjyogahara-senpai herself.
**[23:22] Ougi**
When you awaken, please tell
Senjyogahara-senpai about this episode,
**[23:27] Ougi**
so that you can be well-liked.
**[23:30] Ougi**
Serpens, the one that isn't Hydra,
**[23:33] Ougi**
is also a symbol of immortality,
though not as much as the hydra.
**[23:38] Ougi**
After all, Serpens has a special
characteristic that you can say
**[23:42] Ougi**
is unique among all 88
constellations in the sky.
**[23:46] Ougi**
Do you know what it is, Araragi-senpai?
***SIGN*** I don't know.
**[23:51] Koyomi**
*Does Ougi-chan know what it is?*
**[23:54] Ougi**
I don't know anything.
**[23:56] Ougi**
It's what you know, Araragi-senpai.
**[24:02] Ougi**
In reality, you should know what it is.
**[24:05] Ougi**
See, like this.
**[24:07] Ougi**
Serpens is the only constellation that exists
split up into the eastern and western parts.
**[24:12] Ougi**
As a snake... It has been chopped up.
**[24:15] Ougi**
This clearly shows immortality.
**[24:18] Ougi**
It's still alive despite its
body chopped in half.
***SIGN*** Well, Araragi-senpai, you seem to have your body chopped into half rather often as well.
**[24:23] Ougi**
Actually, in the gap where it is split up, a
different constellation has been drawn in.
**[24:30] Ougi**
I'm sure you know of it, Araragi-senpai,
but it's Ophiuchus (snake charmer).
**[24:35] Ougi**
The picture depicts the snake charmer
holding the upper and lower halves...
**[24:38] Ougi**
...of the snake's body with his left
and right arms, respectively.
**[24:43] Koyomi**
If I recall, that snake charmer was
Asklepios, dubbed the sage physician?
***SIGN*** Sage physician
**[24:49] Ougi**
That's right. Nothing less from you,
Araragi-senpai. You really have extensive knowledge.
**[24:54] Ougi**
Asklepios' medical skills were
honed remarkably quickly,
**[24:57] Ougi**
and it got to a point where he
could even resurrect the dead.
**[25:02] Ougi**
However, that was going too far.
**[25:05] Ougi**
Going too far. Against the rules.
**[25:07] Ougi**
I guess you could say it went
against the logic of the world.
**[25:10] Ougi**
Bringing forth anger of Hades
the god of the underworld,
**[25:12] Ougi**
Asklepios was struck by lightning
and literally sent to heaven.
**[25:18] Ougi**
Well, bringing a person back to life -- to
mass-produce immortals -- is quite the sin.
**[25:25] Ougi**
Yotsugi Ononoki-chan is also among those
who were resurrected after death, but...
***SIGN*** Tadatsuru Teori
**[25:32] Ougi**
All parties responsible for
her resurrection faced retaliation...
***SIGN*** Yoduru Kagenui
***SIGN*** Meme Oshino
***SIGN*** Deishu Kaiki
**[25:38] Ougi**
...and had curses placed
upon their bodies.
***SIGN*** Hm? What's this about?
***SIGN*** Curses?
**[25:42] Ougi**
If that's the case, what's
going to happen?
**[25:44] Ougi**
What kind of penalty will Gaen-san pay in the
future for reviving Araragi-senpai from hell?
***SIGN*** Izuko Gaen
**[25:52] Ougi**
Ha-hah...
**[25:54] Koyomi**
Ougi-chan, if you're going to sit
down, sit on my left side.
**[25:56] Ougi**
Hmm? Why is that?
**[25:59] Koyomi**
That's Senjyogahara's seat.
**[26:02] Ougi**
My oh my, that is not a cheap seat.
**[26:05] Ougi**
Well, please don't worry.
**[26:07] Ougi**
I have never had any intentions of taking
over the throne of the main heroine.
**[26:11] Ougi**
I wouldn't mind striving to be a
"little sister" character...
**[26:16] Ougi**
But, Karen-chan aside, I wouldn't want
to compete against Tsukihi-chan.
**[26:22] Koyomi**
*She is... Her true identity is...*
**[26:28] Koyomi**
*Tadatsuru Teori said it.*
**[26:30] Koyomi**
*He told me at the bottom of hell.*
**[26:33] Koyomi**
* He mentioned the name of the client who*
* requested him to exterminate me and Shinobu...*
**[26:39] Ougi**
Araragi-senpai. What do you
think is the right thing?
***SIGN*** Oh no, you don't have to think too seriously about it.
**[26:45] Ougi**
It is difficult to be
doing the right thing.
**[26:48] Ougi**
It is especially difficult to
do "just the right thing."
**[26:53] Ougi**
If you try to do the right thing, you
end up also having to do attachments,
**[26:57] Ougi**
wrong things or things that are not right.
**[27:01] Ougi**
So that's why, Araragi-senpai.
***SIGN*** To win, there is an absolute need to lose somewhere along the way.
**[27:04] Ougi**
As long as you are being the right self,
you should not be doing the right thing.
**[27:09] Ougi**
In the end, if a mistake always accompanies
you when you try to do the right thing,
**[27:13] Ougi**
and if that's the case...
**[27:15] Ougi**
In the end it all balances out to zero.
**[27:19] Ougi**
Therefore, the way of life that Kagenui-san
and the Fire Sisters practice
**[27:24] Ougi**
is something they claim to be justice.
**[27:27] Ougi**
But, it is not necessarily
"doing the right thing."
**[27:30] Ougi**
To stay the right selves, they
do not do the right thing,
***SIGN*** MISTAKES
**[27:35] Ougi**
but correct mistakes...
***SIGN*** INJUSTICE
**[27:36] Ougi**
... and correct injustice. That is
the way of life they choose.
***SIGN*** EXAMINE (tadasu)
**[27:40] Ougi**
Examine (tadasu)...
**[27:41] Ougi**
...or Inquire a question (toi-tadasu),
I guess you could say.
***SIGN*** INQUIRE (tadasu)
**[27:44] Ougi**
In other words, your foe's foe is not your
ally, but by becoming a foe against evil,
**[27:50] Ougi**
by becoming the antonym to evil, you
assign yourself justice, so to say.
**[27:55] Ougi**
And I am also one that seeks the type
of "right" that corrects mistakes.
**[28:05] Ougi**
It is my role to eject those
that have broken the rules.
***SIGN*** TO SCATTER (kakusan)
**[28:09] Koyomi**
*Broken the rules...*
***SIGN*** TO DISPERSE (musan)
**[28:10] Koyomi**
*...ejection.*
**[28:12] Ougi**
Araragi-senpai, the program
is about to end.
**[28:16] Ougi**
It's better for you to
wake up now, isn't it?
**[28:20] Ougi**
You should at least continue to enjoy
**[28:22] Ougi**
the rest of your date with the
person you're in love with.
**[28:26] Ougi**
But, since you have the
chance, Araragi-senpai...
**[28:29] Ougi**
Please think about the answer to
the question of what you think
**[28:32] Ougi**
is the right thing when you
have to kill some time.
**[28:34] Ougi**
Let's talk about it again when
I see you in real life.
***SIGN*** Yeah, I got it.
***SIGN*** If I still remember when I wake up.
**[28:40] Koyomi**
But really, what in the world
is your true identity?
**[28:43] Ougi**
That too will be discussed
the next time I see you.
**[28:48] Ougi**
But well, if I were to force myself to
say what I can say at this moment...
**[28:52] Ougi**
I am...
**[28:54] Ougi**
...the principles of the universe.
**[28:56] Koyomi**
*Space map...*
**[28:58] Koyomi**
*...in the shape of a hand fan (ougi).*
**[28:59] Koyomi**
* Pitch black vacuum...*
* and unbalanced galaxies.*
**[29:03] Ougi**
Don't think about this too hard, either.
**[29:06] Ougi**
Now that you came back from hell, and returned
to being completely human, Araragi-senpai...
**[29:10] Ougi**
Surprisingly enough, I may no longer have to be
concerned with you anymore... if things go well.
**[29:17] Ougi**
So, please.
**[29:18] Ougi**
I beg of you, don't get suckered
into Gaen-san's slick talk.
**[29:22] Ougi**
Concerning Kiss-shot Acerola-orion
Heart-under-blade now in her complete form,
**[29:27] Ougi**
or Mayoi Hachikuji who has,
after resting in peace, returned again,
**[29:30] Ougi**
got lost again, within this world...
**[29:33] Ougi**
This time, I expect, from
the bottom of my heart,
**[29:36] Ougi**
that you'll make the right
decision to forsake them...
**[29:40] Ougi**
Araragi-senpai.
***SIGN*** I woke up.
***SIGN*** I woke up?
**[29:52] Koyomi**
Senjyogahara....
**[29:58] Hitagi**
I'm not asleep.
**[30:00] Hitagi**
I'm not asleep at all.
**[30:02] Hitagi**
I'm not asleep at all. I was just
thinking with my eyes shut.
**[30:08] Hitagi**
I'm sorry. I was actually asleep.
**[30:11] Koyomi**
It's fine. I was asleep for a bit, too.
**[30:15] Hitagi**
I see. I guess it means
we were both tired?
**[30:20] Hitagi**
I guess it was too hasty to go on a date
after we only decided on it yesterday.
**[30:27] Koyomi**
So, what kind of plans did
you have after this?
**[30:32] Hitagi**
We're going to learn the state-of-the-art
science at the adjoining science museum.
**[30:36] Hitagi**
After doing a tour of the science
museum, we'll have lunch.
**[30:39] Hitagi**
The plan was to study during the morning,
**[30:40] ---**
Floor Map
**[30:41] Hitagi**
so I have mainly leisurely activities
planned for the afternoon.
**[30:44] Hitagi**
We'll go out to the city by car, and
spend the first half bowling.
**[30:47] Hitagi**
After a bit of tea time, we'll spend
the second half singing karaoke.
**[30:50] Koyomi**
Oh...
**[30:51] Hitagi**
Araragi-kun, what's your
high score in bowling?
**[30:54] Koyomi**
Well, I'm a novice at bowling altogether,
like I don't think I've ever played before.
**[30:59] Hitagi**
Got it. There will be a
penalty on the loser.
**[31:02] Koyomi**
Don't set up a penalty after it came
to light that I'm a novice!
**[31:05] Hitagi**
The loser must swear absolute
obedience to the winner.
**[31:10] Koyomi**
That's a really harsh penalty!
**[31:46] Hitagi**
Dammit... To think that Araragi-kun
would actually lie to me...
**[31:50] Hitagi**
You're not a novice at all.

Fine. I will admit defeat.
**[32:26] Hitagi**
You can order me to do anything.
**[32:29] Hitagi**
So, I wonder what kind of lewd
request will you make of me?
**[32:33] Hitagi**
My anticipation only heightens.
**[32:36] Koyomi**
Just for reference, if you
had won, Senjyogahara,
**[32:39] Koyomi**
what kind of request were
you going to make?
**[32:41] Hitagi**
I was going to make a lewd
request, of course!
**[32:48] Koyomi**
* I struck a deal with something like, "Then*
* let's walk arm-in-arm until our tea time."*
**[32:55] Hitagi**
Hmm... To think that you were having an adventure of
that sort on the actual day of the entrance exams.
**[33:00] Hitagi**
It's unexpected, but it's so
fitting for you, Araragi-kun...
**[33:03] Hitagi**
Though, I have to ask, what in
the world were you doing?
**[33:07] Hitagi**
it's unclear exactly what Gaen-san
is fighting against...
**[33:10] Hitagi**
But perhaps you, Araragi-kun, are
the opponent of that battle.
**[33:17] Hitagi**
No, it's more of a hunch than any meaning.
**[33:20] Hitagi**
Compared to your stance, Araragi-kun, where you
can only see what is right in front of your eyes,
**[33:23] Hitagi**
that macroscopic stance Gaen-san takes would
clash no matter how you look at it.
**[33:28] Hitagi**
Clash... or oppose, if you want
a slightly harsher term.
**[33:35] Hitagi**
We'll duke it out for two hours, and

An 82...

Lies.
**[33:54] Hitagi**
82 percent is a failing score. This is the
first time I've ever scored in the low eighties.
**[34:00] Koyomi**
* What kind of test is it if 82*
* percent is a failing score?*
**[34:03] Hitagi**
Araragi-kun, you spent the majority of your
high school career feeling like this?
**[34:07] Hitagi**
I was not able to understand it at all.
**[34:09] Hitagi**
I was supposed to be a lot kinder to you.
**[34:12] Hitagi**
What kind of horrible things have
I been saying to Araragi-kun?

against Araragi-kun twice in one day.
**[34:40] Hitagi**
Now, feel free to give
me any order you want.
**[34:44] Hitagi**
How about you carry me to

**[34:49] Hitagi**
I'll kill you if you say I'm heavy.
**[34:54] Hitagi**
Nothing less from you, Araragi-kun.
**[34:56] Hitagi**
It shows that you're used to cradling young
girls in your arms in everyday life.

**[35:22] Hitagi**
If it's a request to get
married, I'm okay with it.
**[35:24] Koyomi**
No, it's not that important a topic.
**[35:27] Koyomi**
And that was way too instant a reply.
***SIGN*** IT TURNED INTO A MARRIAGE PROPOSAL
**[35:30] Koyomi**
Actually, it's about a gift in return for the
chocolate I received for Valentine's Day...
**[35:34] Koyomi**
I haven't been able to get one ready.
**[35:36] Koyomi**
I'm sorry. I didn't have
time to get one ready.
**[35:39] Koyomi**
In thinking of what to get,
I thought way too much.
***SIGN*** HONEST MAN
**[35:42] Koyomi**
So, can you wait two or three more days?
***SIGN*** THINKING TOO MUCH
**[35:46] Koyomi**
Of course, I'll tack on the interest
accrued during that period.
**[35:49] Hitagi**
What, you were worried about such a thing?
**[35:52] Hitagi**
It was enough for me that you went on
a date with me the whole day today.
**[35:57] Hitagi**
It's fine for you to just give me
something when you feel like it.
**[35:59] Hitagi**
It wasn't like I made that chocolate
expecting to receive something in return.
**[36:12] Hitagi**
Araragi-kun.
**[36:13] Hitagi**
It's unforgivable.
**[36:15] Koyomi**
Eh?
**[36:15] Hitagi**
I can't hardly believe that, on White Day,
one of the three big events of the year for couples,
**[36:19] Hitagi**
you don't have anything
prepared for your lover?
**[36:22] Hitagi**
I have to doubt that you have
any affection towards me.
**[36:25] Koyomi**
Eh? Ehh?
**[36:29] Hitagi**
All day today, I was wondering exactly what
kind of surprise Araragi-kun had prepared for me.
**[36:33] Hitagi**
My heart was racing, and I was so excited...
But you didn't have anything ready.
**[36:38] Hitagi**
What a sidestep that was!
**[36:40] Hitagi**
I had assumed that you would get me a
cruiser or something as a present.
**[36:45] Koyomi**
I-Isn't that expectation a bit too
mega-sized, don't you think?
**[36:48] Hitagi**
Oh, brother. I wonder if I
should just kill myself.
**[36:53] Koyomi**
I-I'm sorry. That's why I'm apologizing.
**[36:57] Koyomi**
Please don't commit suicide.
**[37:00] Koyomi**
T-Then, what can I do for
you to forgive me?
**[37:03] Koyomi**
I can't get you a cruiser, but
I'll do whatever I can-
**[37:06] Hitagi**
Did you just say you'll
do whatever you can?
**[37:09] Hitagi**
Did you say absolute obedience?
**[37:13] Koyomi**
N-No, I didn't say that...
**[37:18] Koyomi**
I did, I did! Indeed, I did say "absolute
obedience" with these lips!
**[37:24] Hitagi**
I see. Nothing less from you,
Araragi-kun. Such a generous heart.
**[37:28] Hitagi**
You really are the man
I fell in love with.
**[37:30] Hitagi**
I've fallen in love with you over again.
**[37:32] Hitagi**
You don't know what I'm
going to request of you,
**[37:35] Hitagi**
but you're willing to be absolutely obedient
to my requests for the rest of your life.
**[37:38] Koyomi**
The rest of my life!?
**[37:41] Koyomi**
S-Sure. The rest of my life.
**[37:44] Koyomi**
I got it. What should I do?
**[37:48] Hitagi**
Call my name.
**[37:52] Hitagi**
Call me... by my name.
**[37:55] Koyomi**
Eh?
**[37:56] Koyomi**
I do call you. "Senjyogahara."
**[37:59] Hitagi**
Not that. My first name,
with no honorifics.
**[38:06] Koyomi**
* So that's why she tried to set up a*
* penalty for bowling and karaoke.*
**[38:12] Koyomi**
* If it wasn't for an opportunity like this, it may*
* have been something I'd have never been able to say.*
**[38:17] Koyomi**
* Absolute obedience for*
* the rest of my life.*
**[38:20] Koyomi**
* Calling her by that name for*

Hello, Araragi-senpai.
**[40:14] Ougi**
I've been waiting for you.
**[40:15] Ougi**
I've gotten tired of waiting.
**[40:17] Ougi**
I got exhausted just by waiting.
**[40:20] Ougi**
How was it?
**[40:21] Ougi**
Did you enjoy your last date
with Senjyogahara-senpai?
**[40:25] Ougi**
At the least, I was being considerate and
avoided butting in over on the physical world.
**[40:30] Ougi**
I'd like you to be appreciative of that.
**[40:32] Koyomi**
I will be appreciative.
**[40:34] Koyomi**
But, how you said "the last date"
creates misunderstanding.
**[40:37] Koyomi**
It was merely the last date
of my high school life.
**[40:41] Ougi**
So is it? Yes, that would be nice if it is...
It'd be nice if the two of you had a future.
**[40:50] Koyomi**
Ougi-chan. Did you try to exterminate me?
**[40:53] Koyomi**
You asked a specialist to do such a thing?
**[40:56] Ougi**
Oh, you heard from someone...
of such false rumors?
**[41:01] Ougi**
But still, that is a sad false alarm...
**[41:04] Ougi**
I would like an explanation.
**[41:06] Ougi**
There is no way I would do anything
to harm you, Araragi-senpai.
**[41:11] Ougi**
That's why I told you, right?
**[41:12] Ougi**
That I am expecting you, Araragi-senpai,
to make the right decision...
**[41:15] Ougi**
...and withdraw, instead of getting
suckered into Gaen-san's slick talk.
**[41:20] Koyomi**
Did you say that?
***SIGN*** Well...
***SIGN*** If she is saying she said it, she probably said it.
**[41:23] Koyomi**
But, it's nonexistent. The choice of forsaking
Shinobu and Hachikuji is something I don't have.
**[41:29] Koyomi**
There is no choice. I have no
surplus within my heart.
**[41:33] Koyomi**
I don't know what the right thing is, but
I do know what path I should take.
**[41:38] Ougi**
I wish you wouldn't hurry to
conclusions like that...
**[41:41] Ougi**
But well, that's fine. I tried to ask you
because I had nothing left to lose.
**[41:46] Ougi**
That said, it's disappointing.
**[41:49] Ougi**
For me personally, I'd like to see you,
Araragi-senpai, retire voluntarily right about now.
**[41:54] Ougi**
But egging you on to do so too much
would be going beyond my bounds.
**[41:58] Ougi**
Hey, Araragi-senpai.
**[42:01] Ougi**
Let me correct one thing that you may
have a misunderstanding about.
**[42:06] Koyomi**
Misunderstanding? What is
the misunderstanding?
**[42:10] Ougi**
I am not the "darkness."
**[42:17] Ougi**
By the way, Araragi-senpai.
**[42:20] Ougi**
Araragi-senpai, you've fallen to
hell, and you've gone on a date,
**[42:23] Ougi**
so you may have nothing you look
back on with regret anymore.
**[42:26] Ougi**
But I currently have one thing that I
look back on with regret in this town.
**[42:32] Koyomi**
Something you look back on with regret?
**[42:34] Ougi**
Something you wouldn't
mind dying to achieve...
**[42:37] Ougi**
Once you achieved this, you wouldn't mind if you died.
Do you have such a goal, Araragi-senpai?
**[42:43] Ougi**
I have one. I have just one more.
**[42:46] Ougi**
That's why I have to do it even if I
have to put everything else aside.
**[42:51] Ougi**
That is why if Izuko Gaen, the leader of the
specialists, were to place a trap, it would be there.
**[42:58] Ougi**
Yes, I know.
**[43:00] Ougi**
I know, but I still have
to fall for that trap...
**[43:03] Ougi**
I have to resign myself to
suffer that counterattack.
**[43:09] Ougi**
In other words, starting right now, I am going to
fight the big sister that knows everything,
**[43:14] Ougi**
with a frontal assault,
with no fudging around...
**[43:17] Ougi**
Araragi-senpai, in this fight,
can you be on my side?
**[43:26] Ougi**
Please, help me.
