[01:38] ---
Let us ever remember.
[01:40] ---
The Shadows are an
outstanding family of nobles.
[01:43] ---
To serve them is the pride
and joy of every living doll.
[04:35] ---
Good morning, Mistress Kate.
[04:38] ---
I'm the living doll who will
be serving you starting today.
[04:44] ---
Your name?
[04:45] ---
Ma'am?
[04:46] ---
You must be given a name.
[04:49] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[04:50] ---
Katie, Kathy, Kat...
[04:53] ---
No, perhaps not.
[04:57] ---
Maybe later.
[04:58] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[06:30] ---
"The Shadow and Her Doll"
[06:50] ---
Could you not stare?
[06:52] ---
Forgive me!
[07:03] ---
Kate does not...
[07:04] ---
Yes, Mistress Kate?
[07:06] ---
Kate doesn't like
looking people in the eye.
[07:09] ---
If you looked at their forehead,
[07:11] ---
wouldn't it seem like you
were looking in their eyes?
[07:14] ---
Like this?
[07:16] ---
Well, it's not like you can tell.
[07:19] ---
It looks like you're looking at me.
[07:22] ---
You're just saying that.
[07:25] ---
After all, no one can see a shadow's face.
[07:30] ---
Excuse me, but...
[07:32] ---
The soot? It emanates due to
anger or other negative emotions.
[07:36] ---
Are you angry right now?
[07:40] ---
No. Anxious, perhaps.
[07:43] ---
Anxious.
[07:49] ---
Soot collects in nooks and crannies.
[07:51] ---
I had no idea.
[07:58] ---
You are staring again.
[08:00] ---
That makes Kate more anxious than ever.
[08:03] ---
Forgive me.
[08:14] ---
She's anxious.
[08:16] ---
I feel anxious, too, Mistress Kate.
[08:27] ---
I can't read this.
I can't read any of these.
[08:30] ---
How will I ever be of
service to Mistress Kate?
[08:47] ---
Forgive me, Mistress Kate!
[08:50] ---
What's done is done. Just clean it up.
[08:53] ---
Yes, ma'am.
[08:55] ---
I'm really sorry.
[08:56] ---
Kate is going to take a bath.
[08:58] ---
Yes, ma'am! I'll finish
cleaning up before you're done!
[09:06] ---
My body isn't working right.
[09:09] ---
Can I fix it by applying oil somewhere?
[09:20] ---
If I break, will I be thrown out, too?
[09:23] ---
No, no! I'm completely fine!
[09:25] ---
I am as fit as a fiddle!
[09:34] ---
I did it again.
[09:37] ---
It seems dolls feel pain, too.
[09:47] ---
Clothes are not for cleaning up spills.
[09:50] ---
You're absolutely right.
[09:52] ---
But I needed a big cloth.
I don't mind looking like this.
[09:58] ---
Listen. The Shadows family's
living dolls are not mere servants.
[10:02] ---
They were created to
precisely mimic human beings.
[10:05] ---
Without faces, it's hard to tell the
members of the Shadows family apart.
[10:09] ---
Living dolls, such as you,
serve as our faces.
[10:13] ---
As such, we cannot have you
neglecting your appearance.
[10:16] ---
Forgive me for bringing
shame upon your family.
[10:20] ---
There is so much you don't know,
but you will gradually learn.
[10:24] ---
Um...
[10:25] ---
Yes?
[10:26] ---
I'm a doll someone created, aren't I?
[10:30] ---
That's right.
[10:31] ---
Why are we created to look human?
[10:34] ---
Perhaps because it allows
you to move about, work,
[10:38] ---
and serve as our faces.
[10:40] ---
Mistress Kate, are you human?
[10:44] ---
You ask too many questions.
[10:47] ---
Forgive me.
[10:55] ---
What is it? Are you all right?
[10:57] ---
I think this might be it for me.
[11:00] ---
I'm broken beyond repair.
[11:03] ---
My body won't move.
[11:05] ---
I can no longer fulfill my duties.
[11:08] ---
I wish I could've had more
time with you, Mistress Kate.
[11:11] ---
This will not do.
Without you, Kate cannot--
[11:18] ---
Hmm?
[11:20] ---
Now my body is making strange sounds.
[11:22] ---
Have you eaten?
[11:23] ---
No, I'm a doll.
[11:26] ---
Food supplies the energy your body needs.
[11:29] ---
It should be delivered
to your room each day.
[11:32] ---
Forgive me. It's my first day.
I only ate a tiny bit.
[11:34] ---
Well, eat more!
[11:36] ---
I thought the rest was yours,
so I left it on the cabinet.
[11:39] ---
Wait there. Kate will bring you something.
[11:44] ---
Mistress Kate...
[11:48] ---
Wow! Is this all for me?
[11:52] ---
It is.
[11:52] ---
This is the bread you eat.
[11:55] ---
It's not like the bread
that's brought to my room.
[11:58] ---
It's white, and soft,
and so yummy looking!
[12:01] ---
No! No matter how hungry I am,
[12:04] ---
I don't want to become a doll so greedy
she'd dare eat her mistress's bread!
[12:10] ---
You are Kate's face, are you not?
[12:13] ---
Yes.
[12:15] ---
Kate would like to see what she looks
like when eating something delicious.
[12:20] ---
So that's part of my job, too?!
[12:22] ---
Then I won't hold back!
[12:24] ---
Thank you for this bread!
[12:29] ---
What is it? Does such food
not suit a living doll?
[12:32] ---
It's so yummy!
[12:34] ---
How can bread be this good?!
[12:36] ---
It's so very, very delicious!
[12:39] ---
Hmm? Mistress Kate, why do
you suddenly seem so merry?
[12:44] ---
It's quite amusing to see someone
so delighted over some bread.
[12:48] ---
But it's so delicious!
[12:52] ---
This is just too yummy!
[12:56] ---
Don't roll around while you eat!
[13:01] ---
Kate is going to bed now.
[13:02] ---
Thank you for cleaning all day.
[13:04] ---
You're welcome, but I'm afraid
I was nothing but trouble.
[13:08] ---
I'm so very happy, and I thank you
for bringing me such delicious bread.
[13:13] ---
You're welcome. How do you feel now?
[13:16] ---
I feel wonderful and full of energy!
[13:18] ---
You sure are positive, aren't you?
[13:23] ---
Did you forget already? Don't stare.
[13:26] ---
Forgive me. The thought of not seeing
you till tomorrow made me feel lonely.
[13:29] ---
Huh?
[13:30] ---
You're a strange one.
[13:33] ---
Good night.
[14:03] ---
Hmm?
[14:16] ---
You made a sootman!
[14:19] ---
How long have you been there?!
[14:20] ---
From the very start! It's a masterpiece.
[14:23] ---
It was merely to pass the time.
There's nothing else to do.
[14:26] ---
You may return to your room if you'd like.
[14:29] ---
No! I enjoy watching you, Mistress Kate!
[14:33] ---
It makes Kate uncomfortable
to be stared at like that.
[14:40] ---
Would you care to play a game of cards?
[14:43] ---
May I?!
[14:49] ---
Excuse me. How do you read this one?
[14:53] ---
I can't read this one or this one, either.
[15:05] ---
You taught me so much today. I'm so happy!
[15:08] ---
I want to study even more
so I may better serve you.
[15:11] ---
You're right.
[15:13] ---
If you get up to clean
an hour earlier tomorrow,
[15:17] ---
Kate will continue today's lesson.
[15:21] ---
Hurray! That's wonderful!
[15:26] ---
Mistress Kate taught me
this letter. This one, too!
[15:30] ---
So that's how you write this.
[15:34] ---
It's kind of hard to read.
[15:37] ---
But I'm sure I'll be able to read
better tomorrow. I can't wait!
[15:45] ---
I overslept!
[15:53] ---
Good morning.
[15:58] ---
Good morning.
[16:04] ---
You're late.
[16:07] ---
Kate is going to take a bath.
Please clean up this mess.
[16:11] ---
Yes, ma'am! I will do my best!
[16:20] ---
You've made good progress.
[16:25] ---
Mistress Kate! I could see your face!
[16:28] ---
Please stay like that a moment.
[16:30] ---
Perhaps your profile
will tell me how you feel.
[16:34] ---
Please smile.
[16:37] ---
Like this?
[16:39] ---
Could you try a big, loud laugh?
[16:42] ---
Kate's never done that before.
[16:45] ---
Like this.
[16:49] ---
Amazing. Such laughter
with no cause whatsoever.
[16:54] ---
As you said, profiles are very important.
[16:57] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[17:02] ---
I'm done cleaning.
[17:04] ---
Well done.
[17:06] ---
You're quite dirty. Go wash up and change.
[17:10] ---
Then we'll have tea.
[17:11] ---
Together with you?!
[17:13] ---
I'll prepare at once!
[17:24] ---
That's better!
[17:29] ---
It's almost ready.
[17:32] ---
You only washed what you
saw in the mirror, didn't you?
[17:35] ---
What?! Oh, forgive me!
[17:38] ---
Come here. Let's wipe you off.
[17:41] ---
I was wondering.
[17:42] ---
Do all members of the Shadows
family have a living doll like me?
[17:47] ---
Though the timing differs,
[17:50] ---
we all get a living doll as
recognition of our coming of age.
[17:53] ---
Oh, I see.
[17:57] ---
What is it?
[17:58] ---
I was wondering. Am I defective?
[18:02] ---
Mistress Kate, you are so prim
and proper, so utterly unlike me.
[18:07] ---
Will I ever be beautiful?
[18:15] ---
You can be made more ladylike.
[18:19] ---
Kate is skilled at
makeovers. Come sit here.
[18:23] ---
Oh, no, forgive me.
Please forget I ever said that.
[18:27] ---
There's no need to make
a fuss over me. I'll be fine.
[18:31] ---
Kate wants to play with her doll. Sit.
[18:37] ---
It's so sparkly!
[18:39] ---
I wish I had one!
[18:40] ---
It's a makeup box. You'll look
beautiful if you learn how to use it.
[18:45] ---
What's this?
[18:47] ---
Powder for making your face
look pretty. But you don't need it yet.
[18:52] ---
I just had a wonderful idea!
[18:56] ---
If you use this, maybe we'll
be able to see your face.
[19:01] ---
No! Don't!
[19:06] ---
Forgive the raised voice, but
Kate does not need such things.
[19:10] ---
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that.
[19:13] ---
After all, I'm your face.
[19:18] ---
You are Kate's cherished identity.
[19:21] ---
I'm your identity?
I wonder if I'm serving you well.
[19:26] ---
I will just have to try harder!
[19:29] ---
Be still.
[19:30] ---
Forgive me.
[19:35] ---
Maybe we should play dress-up, too.
[19:37] ---
My clothes are in the room
over there. Go try something on.
[19:40] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[19:44] ---
How do I look?
[19:48] ---
Actually, it is prohibited to dress up
a living doll in a shadow's clothes.
[19:52] ---
What?! I'll change at once!
[19:54] ---
The reason is clear now.
Dolls look like perfect human beings.
[20:00] ---
That's not true!
[20:03] ---
I don't notice when I get dirty,
and my behavior is uncouth.
[20:08] ---
Even if I wear a lovely outfit,
I'll end up falling and ruining it.
[20:11] ---
Mistress Kate, you're the one
who made me look like this!
[20:16] ---
I am your mirror.
[20:19] ---
See? You're smiling!
[20:23] ---
Do not presume to control Kate's emotions.
[20:26] ---
Forgive me! I got carried away!
[20:28] ---
That wasn't my intent.
I just thought you were smiling.
[20:32] ---
Oh, but you're not emitting soot.
[20:34] ---
You no longer feel anxious around me.
[20:38] ---
Perhaps you're right.
[20:43] ---
You just laughed!
[20:45] ---
It was as plain as day.
[20:48] ---
You know what?
[20:49] ---
Ma'am?
[20:50] ---
You are still in need of a name.
But it is so hard to decide.
[20:55] ---
One idea is "Emily,"
the heroine of this book.
[20:59] ---
Emily? How wonderful!
[21:01] ---
She's positive and cheerful just like you.
[21:04] ---
I'm so happy!
[21:05] ---
But you are rather
strange and funny to watch.
[21:10] ---
I'm funny?
[21:12] ---
How about Emily with
a twist? Maybe "Emilico"?
[21:16] ---
Emilico.
[21:18] ---
You don't approve?
[21:19] ---
No, it's a wonderful name!
[21:22] ---
Emilico. Starting from today,
I'm Emilico. Hurray!
[21:27] ---
Make us proud, Emilico...
[21:30] ---
in your own special way.
[21:32] ---
I'll try my hardest to be of
service to you, Mistress Kate!
[21:35] ---
Thank you so very much!
[21:46] ---
Emilico.
[21:47] ---
Ma'am?
[21:48] ---
Isn't that spot outside?
[21:51] ---
Outside?
[21:55] ---
I wonder if there are other members
of the Shadows family out there.
[23:42] ---

[00:09] ---
Waking each morning, one finds
black soot covering everything.
[00:14] ---
Nightclothes are blackened.
[00:18] ---
The bed is blackened.
[00:22] ---
Whatever one touches...
[00:27] ---
...gets dirty.
[00:30] ---
Dirty.

Dirty.

Dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty,
[00:45] ---
dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty,
dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty!
[02:22] ---
I'm a living doll, and I'm here
to serve Mistress Kate.
[02:27] ---
I'm a living doll, and I'm here
to serve Mistress Kate.
[02:36] ---
Good morning!
[02:40] ---
We always emit soot when we sleep,
but this morning is worse than usual.
[02:45] ---
It will be a chore to clean.
[02:48] ---
I love to clean!
[02:51] ---
I'm here to serve!
[03:06] ---
Are you all right?
[03:07] ---
Yes. I've grown quite used to my work!
[03:10] ---
You have.
[03:12] ---
It won't be long before you are
summoned to clean outside this room.
[03:16] ---
Outside this room?
[03:18] ---
Yes, with the other living dolls.
[03:22] ---
You will help clean the rest of the house.
[03:28] ---
Me? Outside this room?
[05:08] ---
"Outside the Room"
[05:14] ---
I'm nervous. I've never done this before.
[05:22] ---
Let's go. Come on.
[05:27] ---
What's your name?
[05:28] ---
I'm Emilico.
[05:30] ---
I'm Mia from the room above.
Nice to meet you.
[05:33] ---
It's very nice to meet you, too.
[05:36] ---
All right, then, follow me!
[05:38] ---
O-Okay!
[05:42] ---
Ever been outside of your rooms?
[05:44] ---
It's my first time.
[05:45] ---
Really? You're in for quite
a surprise. It's truly amazing.
[05:49] ---
Do you get along with your shadow master?
[05:52] ---
Shadow master?
[05:53] ---
That's what we call shadows
when we don't know their names.
[05:57] ---
So, Emilico, how would
you describe yourself?
[06:00] ---
Oh, um...
[06:03] ---
You're the silent type.
So you're like Lou?
[06:06] ---
This way.
[06:25] ---
See those beams?
[06:27] ---
You can clean the ceiling from up there.
It's fun to be up so high.
[06:39] ---
There are so many living dolls!
[06:42] ---
The house is so big, our cleaning duties
never end, even with this many dolls!
[06:58] ---
There you are.
[06:59] ---
My, what an adorable new doll.
[07:03] ---
This is our team leader, Rosemary.
The quiet one is Lou.
[07:06] ---
This is Emilico.
[07:10] ---
The four of us will
work together as a team.
[07:14] ---
As the oldest, I was
appointed as our leader.
[07:17] ---
But there is no need to stand on ceremony.
[07:20] ---
It's nice to meet you, Emilico.
[07:27] ---
What's wrong, Emilico?!
[07:30] ---
This is all quite a surprise.
[07:34] ---
I didn't expect so many living dolls
and such a huge area outside our rooms.
[07:41] ---
I know what you mean.
[07:43] ---
But don't worry.
They are all very nice dolls.
[07:48] ---
Well, most of them are.
[07:52] ---
But this house really is huge, isn't it?
[07:55] ---
That hallway goes on forever!
[07:58] ---
It goes on forever?!
[08:00] ---
No, not forever.
[08:04] ---
Are we all supposed to
clean that hallway, too?
[08:07] ---
That's right.
[08:10] ---
All the living dolls here?
[08:13] ---
Yes.
[08:14] ---
Will I get along with everyone?
[08:16] ---
Emilico. You're a living doll.
Don't fret over trivial matters.
[08:21] ---
As long as we're diligent
in our cleaning duties
[08:24] ---
and serve the Shadows family well,
[08:27] ---
we'll be happy, won't we?
[08:31] ---
She's right, Emilico.
[08:34] ---
Here are your cleaning kit and soot suit.
[08:37] ---
Thank you.
[08:42] ---
But you won't need your soot suit today.
We're not doing a deep cleaning.
[08:47] ---
They are your very own.
[08:50] ---
You mean these are mine?!
[08:57] ---
I am so happy.
[09:02] ---
That's right. We are truly blessed!
[09:07] ---
Though today we clean
[09:09] ---
Tomorrow the soot will collect once more
[09:12] ---
So let it collect
[09:14] ---
For we shall again wipe it away
[09:17] ---
Now, let's get to work
[09:22] ---
Let's make ourselves useful
[09:26] ---
Don't fret over trivial matters
[09:31] ---
For the sake of the Shadows family
[09:36] ---
Now, let's get to work
[09:41] ---
Let's make ourselves useful
[09:45] ---
Don't fret over trivial matters
[09:51] ---
For the sake of the Shadows family
[10:02] ---
Mistress Kate!
[10:04] ---
You're covered in soot.
You must have worked quite hard.
[10:09] ---
About that...
[10:12] ---
Look!
[10:15] ---
Why are you baring your feet?
[10:17] ---
It's like they were lying down on the job!
[10:40] ---
I'm back.
[10:43] ---
How was the soot remover?
[10:46] ---
It was so powerful.
[10:48] ---
I could barely breathe.
[10:51] ---
But I'm fine now.
[10:52] ---
It was fun cleaning outside of here.
[10:55] ---
A living doll named Mia
[10:56] ---
taught me so many new things!
[10:59] ---
That's wonderful.
[11:01] ---
Now, let's get to work
[11:05] ---
Let's make ourselves useful
[11:10] ---
Don't fret over trivial matters
[11:16] ---
The book!
[11:18] ---
What a relief. I didn't get
the book or the floor wet.
[11:23] ---
Emilico.
[11:24] ---
That's...
[11:26] ---
Oh, it was right there, so I used it to...
[11:29] ---
Forgive me.
[11:32] ---
Stuffed toys are never
the same once they get wet.
[11:36] ---
Um, shall I throw it away
like I did the last time I--
[11:40] ---
Leave it right there!
[11:45] ---
Do what you will with
whatever else you see here.
[11:50] ---
But Kate treasures that stuffed toy!
[11:54] ---
You don't treasure anything,
so you wouldn't understand.
[11:58] ---
M-Mistress Kate, I treasure you--
[12:00] ---
Enough!
[12:02] ---
Kate is going to take a bath.
[12:05] ---
Forgive me, Mistress Kate.
I'll do my best to clean up.
[12:25] ---
It won't come off.
[12:28] ---
"When soot will not come off,
[12:31] ---
the shadow's... has... in..."
[12:39] ---
I'll have Mistress Kate read this.
[12:44] ---
Do what you will with
whatever else you see here.
[12:47] ---
But Kate treasures that stuffed toy!
[13:05] ---
Living dolls must be of
service to the Shadows family.
[13:11] ---
Living dolls...
[13:13] ---
must be of service to the Shadows family.
[13:56] ---
Emilico.
[13:58] ---
What are you doing?
[13:59] ---
Forgive me for using
this room without permission.
[14:04] ---
Emilico, is that...?
[14:08] ---
I tried...
[14:11] ---
...to fix it.
[14:14] ---
Am I in trouble for not
asking permission again?
[14:22] ---
This is wonderful.
[14:27] ---
Kate is sorry, Emilico.
[14:30] ---
You were never told not to
touch it. That is Kate's fault.
[14:35] ---
Forgive the outburst.
[14:36] ---
Don't be silly!
[14:38] ---
What's that?
[14:40] ---
I made my own stuffed toy
while yours was drying.
[14:43] ---
I'm going to treasure it.
[14:47] ---
I named him Rolly.
[14:49] ---
You really do love bread, don't you?
[14:52] ---
Oh, I almost forgot!
I had a question about cleaning.
[14:56] ---
What about soot that won't come off?
[15:09] ---
It came off.
[15:44] ---
Rolly!
[15:47] ---
Emilico!
[16:59] ---
Emilico!
[17:06] ---
Are you all right?
[17:08] ---
Mistress Kate!
[17:09] ---
Can you move?
[17:10] ---
Yes. I didn't break anything.
[17:13] ---
Mistress Kate, thank you for coming
all the way down here to check on me!
[17:19] ---
All right, we better hurry back.
[17:36] ---
Oh, it's you.
[17:39] ---
Oh my, who do we have here?
[17:41] ---
You must not have had your debut yet.
[17:45] ---
Hi, Mia!
[17:47] ---
Mistress Kate,
[17:48] ---
this is the living doll who taught me lots
of things while we were cleaning!
[17:54] ---
What's with this face
speaking when it should not?
[17:58] ---
Huh?
[18:00] ---
Good day, Kate.
[18:02] ---
Pleased to meet you.
Sarah at your service.
[18:05] ---
Pleased to meet you.
[18:08] ---
Oh dear, Kate. You've turned pale.
[18:14] ---
Mistress Kate looks quite impressive!
[18:23] ---
You could learn a lot from Sarah's face,
[18:27] ---
Little Miss Failure.
[18:34] ---
Where do you think you're going?
[18:37] ---
You intend to ignore Sarah's advice?
[18:40] ---
Tell us, Little Miss Failure.
[18:42] ---
What sort of face is Sarah making now?
[18:46] ---
You're... angry.
[18:48] ---
That's right.
[18:50] ---
How about Kate?
[18:51] ---
Oh, dear. Kate, what's the matter?
[18:54] ---
Oh, that's right. You have no face!
[18:56] ---
What sort of expression
are you making now?
[19:00] ---
Are you even looking at Sarah?
[19:07] ---
Perhaps this was a waste of time.
[19:10] ---
Surely such a failed shadow and face
[19:13] ---
will end up being discarded
by our Lord Grandfather.
[19:18] ---
Goodbye, Kate. You were lucky
it was Sarah you came across.
[19:23] ---
This little faux pas
shall remain between us.
[19:29] ---
Don't walk about with that face.
[19:31] ---
Shadows must be more confident.
[19:35] ---
Forgive me.
[19:40] ---
Am I a failure? I've caused
you nothing but trouble.
[19:47] ---
It can't be helped.
One cannot choose one's face.
[19:53] ---
But, Emilico...
[19:56] ---
you tried to protect
that which you treasure.
[20:02] ---
That is progress.
[20:06] ---
Yes, Mistress Kate! I shall
work hard to better serve you!
[20:10] ---
I await your instructions!
[20:13] ---
Okay, then. Take better care of yourself.
[20:25] ---
I scraped my knee.
[20:29] ---
It will heal faster if I go to bed early!
[20:39] ---
Oh, no! I can't sleep!
[20:43] ---
I should be sleepy, but
there is so much on my mind.
[20:46] ---
But living dolls are not supposed
to fret over trivial matters.
[20:51] ---
I know!
[20:56] ---
I'll make a "don't fret" notebook
[20:58] ---
of trivial matters I've
thought about, then I'll forget them!
[21:01] ---
First, I'm always worrying about
how to better serve Kate.
[21:07] ---
And I'm always wondering
what the debut is.
[21:11] ---
What else?
[21:13] ---
The Lord Grandfather...
[21:18] ---
Shadows House...
[21:24] ---
I mustn't speak of such things!
[21:29] ---
And yet, I wonder...
[21:39] ---
What is Shadows House?
[23:15] ---
Good night, Mistress Sarah.

[00:11] ---
I have my first class today.
[00:14] ---
We'll teach each other
stuff we don't know.
[00:16] ---
There's so much I still don't know
about Shadows House. I can hardly wait!
[00:23] ---
However...
[00:26] ---
Oh!
[00:28] ---
Mia.
[00:30] ---
U-Um...
[00:33] ---
Emilico! Good morning!
[00:35] ---
Huh?
[00:38] ---
What's wrong?
[00:39] ---
Still half-asleep?
[00:44] ---
I thought you didn't like me.
[00:47] ---
You mean the last time we met?
Those were Sarah's emotions.
[00:51] ---
You have a lot to learn.
[00:53] ---
Oh...
[00:55] ---
Did I miss something?
[00:58] ---
It's our little secret, isn't it?
[01:02] ---
Everyone is here.
[01:05] ---
Let the class begin.
[01:07] ---
But let us dispense with the formalities.
[01:10] ---
We shall give Emilico
a tour of the house today.
[01:14] ---
Okay!
[02:46] ---
"The Soot Sickness"
[02:48] ---
First, the hall of cleaning implements.
[02:51] ---
One might call this
a gathering spot for living dolls.
[02:54] ---
After we cleaned the great hall,
I put my broom away here!
[02:58] ---
Mine is...
[03:00] ---
this one!
[03:01] ---
That's right.
[03:02] ---
Next time, you can come get it yourself.
[03:05] ---
Are these for cleaning, too?
[03:08] ---
We use them in emergencies.
But that doesn't happen too often.
[03:13] ---
Hmm?
[03:16] ---
Where do those stairs go?
[03:19] ---
To the kitchen and laundry.
[03:21] ---
Lou, do you know who works there?
[03:24] ---
The veiled dolls.
There's no need for us to go there.
[03:28] ---
That's right. Well done.
[03:30] ---
Emilico, you need not give any
thought to such places, either.
[03:37] ---
This is the classroom!
[03:38] ---
Will I learn my letters here?
[03:41] ---
Let's do that next time.
[03:46] ---
This is Shadows House's...
[03:48] ---
That's right. This house
has different floors.
[03:52] ---
The living dolls' rooms are below
the Shadows family's living quarters.
[03:58] ---
What's this?
[03:59] ---
That is a portrait. You wear
it when serving as a face.
[04:04] ---
The arms and legs are covered
in lace so your face will stand out.
[04:08] ---
It's a living doll's formal attire.
[04:10] ---
You will wear it after the debut.
[04:13] ---
The debut?
[04:14] ---
It's yet to come for you and Lou.
[04:17] ---
Lou hasn't done it yet, either?
[04:21] ---
This is the great hall,
which we cleaned last time.
[04:24] ---
Huh?
[04:27] ---
Hmm?
[04:35] ---
The soot is already collecting.
Shall we clean it up?
[04:38] ---
Oh my!
[04:40] ---
Your sharp eye is impressive!
[04:42] ---
I think I'm going to like you!
[04:45] ---
But you need not fret
over such a small amount.
[04:48] ---
Ordinarily, we would clean it up,
but our lesson takes precedence today!
[04:52] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[05:00] ---
Lou, can you tell us
where that hallway leads?
[05:04] ---
The debut hall.
[05:05] ---
Yes, that is correct. Very good!
[05:08] ---
Um, what do we do during the debut?
[05:11] ---
It is a very important ceremony.
[05:14] ---
The competency of both
shadow and doll will be judged.
[05:16] ---
And whether they will be
an asset to the Shadows family.
[05:20] ---
Once a Shadows family member debuts,
they are said to have a face.
[05:24] ---
That is a sign of adulthood.
[05:26] ---
Oh, so then Mistress Kate
is not yet an adult?
[05:30] ---
Right. You might say
she is in her trial period.
[05:35] ---
Do debuts ever not go so well?
[05:41] ---
Forgive me, but we're not supposed
to discuss any details about the debut.
[05:45] ---
All we can say is do the best you can.
[05:52] ---
Are there any dolls
older than you, Rosemary?
[05:55] ---
Why, of course there are.
[05:58] ---
They're in another wing of the house.
[06:00] ---
It's where the lords live.
[06:03] ---
You mustn't fret over trivial matters.
[06:07] ---
Living dolls must feel nothing but
loyalty toward the Shadows family.
[06:12] ---
You must remember that.
[06:14] ---
How go your sentiments
toward the Shadows family,
[06:16] ---
so they go toward each shadow master.
[06:18] ---
Abide by this, and we shall be happy.
[06:22] ---
But living dolls that
are not loyal and useful
[06:24] ---
will be discarded.
[06:28] ---
Discarded?
[06:29] ---
Come to think of it, Lord Grandfather--
[06:34] ---
Only the members of the
Shadows family call him that.
[06:38] ---
We call him the Lord of Shadows
House and the Shadows Family,
[06:42] ---
Father of All Living Dolls,
[06:45] ---
The Grand Creator.
[06:48] ---
But those words must
seldom pass your lips.
[06:50] ---
Such an eminent name will be tainted
if those of our standing speak it.
[06:57] ---
Did I say more than I should have?
[07:00] ---
It's the emergency bell. That means...
[07:04] ---
A phantom.
[07:07] ---
A phantom?
[07:09] ---
To the hall of cleaning implements!
[07:18] ---
Mia, how do I put this on?
[07:21] ---
Your soot suit is fine for now. Hurry!
[07:24] ---
This is for places that
are thick with soot.
[07:29] ---
But it obscures your vision.
We must use our tools properly.
[07:34] ---
A phantom? As in that thing
we heard of? They really do exist?
[07:38] ---
This is my first time, too.
[07:40] ---
What thing?
[07:41] ---
A cluster of scorches.
[07:43] ---
What's a scorch?
[07:45] ---
A scorch is soot that gathers together
and begins to move with ill intent.
[07:50] ---
Soot... that moves?
[07:56] ---
What is that?!
[08:04] ---
What now?
[08:05] ---
Let's wait for the
Star Bearer's instructions.
[08:08] ---
Get to work, you sluggards!
[08:11] ---
It's the doll I saw the other day.
[08:12] ---
This problem won't fix itself!
[08:14] ---
Barbie! We brought the hammers. What now?
[08:17] ---
Smash it to bits, you maggots!
[08:31] ---
Are you all right?
[08:32] ---
Rose, you dimwit!
[08:34] ---
Is your whole team
made up of dimwits, too?!
[08:37] ---
The rest of you worthless fools,
smash those scorches!
[08:43] ---
Emilico, let's get 'em!
[08:44] ---
Y-Yes, ma'am!
[08:53] ---
That Star Bearer truly
is a horrible creature.
[08:56] ---
Star Bearers are very important dolls,
[08:59] ---
and scorches are soot that
gathered and started to move.
[09:02] ---
And if even more gather,
they form a phantom.
[09:07] ---
Save it for later. This isn't a classroom!
[09:13] ---
Where did it hide?
[09:18] ---
I think it's behind this painting.
[09:21] ---
I want you to poke it from that side.
[09:23] ---
I'll smack it when it comes out.
[09:25] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[09:26] ---
You two sure are quick.
[09:30] ---
Look out!
[09:37] ---
Rosemary!
[09:42] ---
Smack it! Smack it!
[09:44] ---
No, Lou! Not Rose!
Smack the soot on her head!
[09:52] ---
She collapsed!
[09:54] ---
We must remove it quickly!
[09:57] ---
There's one over here, too!
[10:27] ---
Oh, no!
[10:29] ---
She'll hang to death!
[10:33] ---
Stop kicking, Rose!
[10:36] ---
Please! Not my face!
[10:39] ---
Water.
[10:40] ---
Huh?
[10:41] ---
Pouring water on scorches
makes them slow and brittle.
[10:45] ---
I read it in the manual.
[10:48] ---
Cleaning spray.
[10:54] ---
It worked! Try some more!
[11:01] ---
Lou! It won't reach!
[11:03] ---
This is all I have in my cleaning kit.
[11:06] ---
I'll go fill up a bucket!
[11:08] ---
It's too far. You won't make it in time.
[11:10] ---
Enough of this!
[11:11] ---
I'm going to let go
before she scars my face!
[11:15] ---
I don't like making choices.
[11:17] ---
Emilico, which one would
you save, Mia or Rosemary?
[11:29] ---
Emilico!
[11:43] ---
Ow, ow, ow.
[11:46] ---
What a relief. The scorch came off.
[11:50] ---
We're supposed to clean up,
yet you made a mess with that water.
[11:55] ---
F-Forgive me!
[11:56] ---
That never occurred to me.
[11:59] ---
You're amazing, Emilico.
[12:03] ---
Mistress Kate is always scolding me
for tipping over vases full of water.
[12:09] ---
You never think outside the box, Lou.
[12:16] ---
Rosemary?
[12:33] ---
Rosemary?
[12:35] ---
It's the soot sickness.
[12:36] ---
The first-aid team will handle it.
[12:42] ---
We must have her drink
a large quantity of water.
[12:45] ---
Let's take her to the washroom.
[12:47] ---
Put her to sleep.
[12:52] ---
We better clean up all this soot.
[12:55] ---
You're right.
[12:59] ---
Rosemary.
[13:01] ---
We never finished today's lesson,
but I learned something important.
[13:06] ---
We must always be diligent in our cleaning
[13:10] ---
so that soot can't collect
and start moving.
[13:31] ---
Good morning, Rolly.
[13:35] ---
Y-You moved!
[13:38] ---
Rolly, I'm right here. Come to me!
[13:42] ---
Huh?
[13:45] ---
That's strange.
[13:47] ---
I just saw you move.
[13:51] ---
What's wrong, Emilico?
Didn't get enough sleep?
[13:53] ---
Yes, ma'am. I didn't
sleep well last night.
[13:57] ---
I'm not surprised, considering
that scare on your first day of class.
[14:01] ---
It shocked even me.
[14:03] ---
Is Rosemary going to be all right?
[14:05] ---
She'll be fine. She was
still moving, after all.
[14:08] ---
And it's Rose we're talking about.
[14:12] ---
She'll say something like,
"That was so embarrassing,"
[14:14] ---
and be back before you know it.
[14:18] ---
But enough about that.
Today, we have something fun in store!
[14:23] ---
We will wash ourselves
squeaky clean in the washroom.
[14:26] ---
Each bath is made for two.
[14:29] ---
Emilico, you can go in with me.
[14:31] ---
Lou, you go find someone else.
[14:34] ---
But first...
[14:36] ---
Huh?
[14:41] ---
I'll never get used to that.
[14:44] ---
It makes me dizzy.
[14:49] ---
This feels so good!
[14:50] ---
Is this the same stuff used for cleaning?
[14:52] ---
It's a special type of soap for dolls.
[14:55] ---
I was scared.
[14:56] ---
I thought water would
get inside me, and I'd break.
[15:01] ---
Don't worry. Living dolls
are finely crafted.
[15:05] ---
Does "finely crafted"
mean we're built to last?
[15:10] ---
Something like that.
[15:11] ---
Come to think of it, you don't
know many words, do you?
[15:15] ---
That's right. I'm still
learning my letters.
[15:19] ---
I was able to read when I was born.
[15:22] ---
You could?
[15:23] ---
It seems the starting
line differs for each doll.
[15:27] ---
I was born brilliant.
[15:29] ---
Mistress Sarah was quite delighted
when I came to serve as her face.
[15:33] ---
And you?
[15:34] ---
Mistress Kate is always scolding me.
[15:38] ---
Well, consider yourself lucky.
I will teach you all sorts of things.
[15:43] ---
Hurray! I can hardly wait!
[15:45] ---
What do we do here?
[16:01] ---
You didn't warn me.
[16:04] ---
It was just a little prank.
[16:05] ---
Forgive me!
[16:09] ---
All right, we're even now! Stop!
[16:18] ---
Did you enjoy your cleaning?
[16:20] ---
Even better things await as your
shadow master's standing rises.
[16:26] ---
There's Lou!
[16:29] ---
Rosemary!
[16:31] ---
Are you all better now?
[16:33] ---
Yes, but I had quite a fright.
[16:36] ---
I had heard of the soot sickness,
but to think I would contract it.
[16:40] ---
What is the soot sickness?
[16:43] ---
It occurs when scorches enter the body.
[16:46] ---
If left untreated,
the afflicted doll will break.
[16:48] ---
It is quite dreadful.
[16:50] ---
But with swift treatment,
one need not worry.
[16:52] ---
We have an excellent first-aid team.
[16:54] ---
You must drink plenty of water.
[16:57] ---
Indeed. You must flush out all the soot.
[17:00] ---
It is so much water,
you never want to drink again.
[17:02] ---
So you're all better now! I'm so glad!
[17:06] ---
This just won't do.
[17:07] ---
I wished to show what
a fine team leader I could be.
[17:12] ---
That was so embarrassing.
[17:20] ---
Did I say something funny?
[17:23] ---
And then Rosemary came back,
and she was completely fine.
[17:27] ---
The first-aid team is the best!
[17:29] ---
I'm so glad the four of us will
be able to clean together again.
[17:32] ---
Oh, that's wonderful.
[17:35] ---
Is something wrong?
[17:37] ---
Kate has never heard of a phantom.
[17:40] ---
Oh, forgive me. I didn't mean
to keep talking like that.
[17:44] ---
No, it's quite all right.
[17:46] ---
However...
[17:47] ---
As you've been told before,
[17:49] ---
if you move things while cleaning,
put them back where you found them.
[17:54] ---
Forgive me! I hadn't noticed!
[17:57] ---
What was it I moved?
[18:00] ---
That stuffed toy wasn't where it belongs.
[18:03] ---
Yours, too, Mistress Kate?!
[18:05] ---
My Rolly moved on his own, too!
[18:08] ---
You may correct your failings,
but excuses will not be tolerated.
[18:13] ---
B-But I saw it happen!
[18:17] ---
Living dolls can move,
so stuffed toys should be--
[18:21] ---
They're not the same thing!
[18:29] ---
It flew.
[18:30] ---
I knew it! Stuffed toys can move!
[18:33] ---
It is the power of our Lord Grandfather
that breathes life into living dolls.
[18:38] ---
Dolls and toys couldn't
possibly move on their own.
[18:41] ---
Then perhaps you, too,
have great power, Mistress Kate.
[18:46] ---
Why don't you try and make Rolly move?
[18:50] ---
Is such a thing possible?
[18:59] ---
It truly was Kate.
[19:01] ---
I knew it!
[19:02] ---
To think such a thing was possible...
[19:05] ---
But nothing else moves
besides stuffed toys.
[19:10] ---
Why stuffed toys?
[19:12] ---
Rolly and Kate's stuffed toy...
[19:15] ---
I sewed them up.
[19:16] ---
Oh, I know! It's the soot!
[19:19] ---
Mistress Kate, you can make soot move!
[19:21] ---
But it was the stuffed toys that moved.
[19:24] ---
Actually, I stuffed Rolly with
the soot from your sootman.
[19:29] ---
What? Why would you do that?
[19:31] ---
I didn't have any spare cotton.
[19:33] ---
Plus...
[19:35] ---
I wanted to put something
I treasure into something I cherish.
[19:39] ---
Now I'll always feel like you are nearby.
[19:43] ---
To think you'd use a sootman
Kate made in that manner...
[19:47] ---
You're weird.
[19:49] ---
D-Did I do something wrong?!
[19:51] ---
Never mind. Just clean up.
[19:53] ---
Yes, ma'am.
[19:56] ---
Soot is emitted due to negative feelings.
[19:59] ---
That's why scorches
begin moving with ill intent.
[20:02] ---
But soot can also be made to move
on purpose like Mistress Kate did.
[20:07] ---
Why can Mistress Kate make soot move?
[20:10] ---
And that phantom we saw...
Was someone making it move?
[20:14] ---
And the lords in the
other wing of the house...
[20:18] ---
Living dolls must feel nothing but
loyalty toward the Shadows family!
[20:23] ---
I mustn't fret over trivial matters!
[20:28] ---
You rang, Mistress Kate?
[20:35] ---
Wow! I can't believe you can
already control it like that!
[20:38] ---
But only for a short time.
[20:40] ---
It's still amazing!
[20:42] ---
I can't wait to tell the other
living dolls what you can do!
[20:47] ---
That is why Kate summoned you.
[20:48] ---
Tell no one about this, at least not yet.
[20:52] ---
Shadow lore says
nothing about such things.
[20:55] ---
We must be careful.
[20:57] ---
Yes, ma'am.
[20:59] ---
The debut draws near,
and there is so much to learn.
[21:02] ---
But shadows mustn't
leave their room before then.
[21:05] ---
We must study using what books we have.
[21:08] ---
Living dolls are allowed
to gather, but not shadows?
[21:13] ---
That's right. But we could learn more from
one another by exchanging information.
[21:17] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[21:19] ---
We shall have to study together.
[21:21] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[21:24] ---
Mistress Kate!
[21:26] ---
You're quite weary.
[21:29] ---
We'll begin our studies tomorrow.
[21:32] ---
Forgive me.
[23:05] ---
How many candidates remain?
[23:08] ---
We must cull the failed fruit with haste.
[23:11] ---
Let us hope it's as fun as last time.
[23:14] ---
Edward, how goes the debut preparations?
[23:17] ---
All shall be ready soon.
[23:19] ---
Please leave it to me.
[23:21] ---
The debut... It's my big chance now
that I've been chosen as judge.
[23:26] ---
I will give the third-floor lords
a show they won't forget.
[23:29] ---
Perhaps I'll even rise to the third floor
if Lord Grandfather notices me.
[23:35] ---
The candidates are of no consequence.
[23:37] ---
What matters is that
this goes as I planned.

[00:09] ---
Shut your pieholes!
[00:13] ---
What happened?
[00:14] ---
Why are we here?
[00:16] ---
Today, we're being blessed
with a Star Bearer's wisdom.
[00:21] ---
This is about that phantom mayhem.
[00:24] ---
One of your teams' lazy
cleaning habits caused this!
[00:28] ---
I'm here to question you until
we get to the bottom of it!
[02:03] ---
"Watchers in the Night"
[02:06] ---
All right, next!
[02:08] ---
Get back to cleaning if I'm done with you!
[02:11] ---
Next, we have dimwitted Rose.
[02:14] ---
It was your team that
let those scorches slip by.
[02:16] ---
Explain yourself!
[02:18] ---
That wasn't a matter
of anything slipping by.
[02:21] ---
We were holding class that day, and--
[02:23] ---
You're always rambling!
[02:26] ---
You people were neglecting
your cleaning duties!
[02:29] ---
Our newest member, Emilico,
was still being trained.
[02:33] ---
And we had never faced such a disturbance,
hence our delayed response.
[02:37] ---
But we dealt with it accordingly.
[02:39] ---
We did not neglect our cleaning.
[02:41] ---
I'd be happy to submit
our work for your inspection.
[02:44] ---
I understand perfectly now.
[02:50] ---
This whole team is a bunch of dimwits.
[02:53] ---
Watch it, bigmouth!
I was talking to your team leader.
[02:57] ---
You kicked her! How mean!
[03:03] ---
You're the one who was
waving at me from that window.
[03:07] ---
I see you're one of those sunshiney types.
You think I'm mean?
[03:12] ---
Are you criticizing how I do my job?
[03:16] ---
Barbie, look out!
[03:18] ---
Are you hurt?
[03:20] ---
You maggot!
[03:21] ---
How dare you bump into me?!
[03:25] ---
Forgive me. My eyesight is poor.
It was not my intention to bump into you.
[03:30] ---
Wear glasses if you
have trouble seeing people!
[03:33] ---
My master doesn't wear glasses,
so wouldn't it be odd for me to?
[03:38] ---
You dare talk back to me?
[03:45] ---
That's no way to speak to Barbie.
She's a Star Bearer!
[03:48] ---
You're the black sheep of our team.
[03:54] ---
What now?!
[03:58] ---
F-For... Forgive me.
[04:00] ---
F-F-Forgive me.
[04:02] ---
You.
[04:05] ---
You're the most inept of all.
[04:08] ---
You're always dropping things and
scattering the soot you've collected.
[04:12] ---
I've read the reports.
[04:15] ---
You can't fool me.
[04:18] ---
That phantom mayhem was your fault!
[04:21] ---
That's not--
[04:24] ---
She's part of your team,
isn't she? Please help her!
[04:27] ---
What?
[04:28] ---
Why? The truth is we cannot do a thing.
[04:32] ---
Plus, she has been nothing
but trouble for our team.
[04:35] ---
B-But all the blame will be pinned on her.
[04:38] ---
Someone must take the blame.
It might as well be her.
[04:42] ---
A doll as inept as her won't
make it past the debut anyway.
[04:46] ---
She is a failure.
[04:50] ---
Please, Barbie, don't!
[04:52] ---
You again?
[04:54] ---
There must be an explanation.
[04:57] ---
An explanation?
[04:59] ---
All right, in that case...
[05:02] ---
Sunshine,
[05:04] ---
Good-for-Nothing,
[05:05] ---
Black Sheep!
[05:06] ---
Huh?
[05:07] ---
She means you.
[05:08] ---
I hereby assign you
three to the night watch.
[05:11] ---
I'll see that your rooms
are left unlocked.
[05:14] ---
I'll report your ineptness to the adults
in the other wing if you fail.
[05:19] ---
What is your name?
[05:20] ---
I'm Ricky.
[05:22] ---
Out of all the new dolls,
you're the only promising one.
[05:26] ---
Thank you.
[05:27] ---
Everyone, back to your cleaning!
[05:30] ---
Your work is not done!
[05:32] ---
We're not done because of Barbie.
She's abusing the new dolls!
[05:36] ---
And, Emilico, no good will
come of standing up for others.
[05:40] ---
Yes, ma'am.
[05:41] ---
You really should avoid provoking Barbie.
[05:45] ---
Her shadow master is
a very important figure.
[05:48] ---
Still, it is nothing
you need to fret over.
[05:51] ---
Barbie will soon lose interest in this.
[06:13] ---
Oh, welcome back, Emilico.
[06:15] ---
It's good to be back, Mistress Kate.
[06:18] ---
Might you be available tonight?
[06:21] ---
It would be nice to study together.
[06:23] ---
Oh, forgive me. Tonight,
I have work outside your room.
[06:29] ---
But I would love to some other time!
[06:32] ---
Is that so? Be careful out there.
[06:35] ---
Yes, ma'am! But before that,
I'll clean your room until it sparkles!
[06:55] ---
Really? A Star Bearer already praised you?
That's quite impressive, Ricky.
[07:00] ---
There's this one doll who's
the black sheep of our team.
[07:04] ---
But I showed him his place,
and none too gently.
[07:08] ---
Excellent work.
[07:10] ---
I simply did what was befitting
of your face, Master Patrick.
[07:30] ---
Good evening, I'm Emilico.
Let's do the best job we can!
[07:35] ---
So, what are your names?
[07:41] ---
I'm Shaun.
[07:43] ---
Well, um, shall we start our watch?
[07:47] ---
We'll find something if we look around!
[07:49] ---
"Something," you say? As if new
dolls like us could solve anything.
[07:53] ---
We have plenty of time before
the major house cleaning in one week.
[07:57] ---
We'll do just fine.
[08:06] ---
Nothing unusual in this room.
[08:10] ---
Huh? Where's Shaun?
[08:14] ---
Oh, there he is.
[08:16] ---
We're over here!
[08:21] ---
Oh, right. You can't see very well.
[08:23] ---
That wasn't me you saw.
[08:26] ---
What?!
[08:27] ---
Oh, no. Now that other
doll is falling behind.
[08:52] ---
Nothing unusual here, either.
[08:54] ---
Wait. Did we already look in here?
[09:01] ---
How is this watch duty
going to help my master?
[09:13] ---
Let's do our best again tomorrow.
[10:14] ---
This is our fifth night.
[10:15] ---
I really hope we can get to the
bottom of that phantom mayhem.
[10:22] ---
Shaun!
[10:23] ---
Did you bring something that might help?
[10:26] ---
Blankets.
[10:27] ---
Blankets? What for?
[10:30] ---
To sleep.
[10:30] ---
But why?
[10:32] ---
They lock our doors
once we leave our rooms.
[10:35] ---
So I'll sleep here till our time is up.
[10:37] ---
But we only have until
the day after tomorrow.
[10:40] ---
Barbie just wants to sow discord
between our masters and us.
[10:44] ---
My daily cleaning is starting
to suffer from my lack of sleep.
[10:48] ---
And you, Emilico?
[10:50] ---
I did Mistress Kate a disservice
by oversleeping this morning.
[10:54] ---
B-But blaming it on someone
else without reason isn't right!
[10:59] ---
We are our masters' faces. How can we
fulfill our role if we look all worn out?
[11:05] ---
I only take my master's
instructions seriously.
[11:08] ---
Please don't give up yet!
[11:10] ---
I brought something that will help.
[11:13] ---
It's a map! Mia from
our team drew it for me.
[11:20] ---
Let's look around together.
[11:22] ---
Wait.
[11:23] ---
So then you will help us?
[11:26] ---
I brought blankets for both of you.
[11:29] ---
Sleep if you want.
That's all I have to say.
[11:32] ---
Oh, thank you.
[11:36] ---
Shall we sleep, then?
[11:37] ---
It's true, we shouldn't overdo it.
[11:43] ---
I'm not used to this.
It's hard to fall asleep.
[11:46] ---
The ceiling is so high.
[11:48] ---
And I've never had anyone
next to me as I fall asleep.
[11:52] ---
You're right, Shaun.
It's also important to sleep.
[11:57] ---
And you may try to hide it,
but I can tell you care about us.
[12:01] ---
After all, you helped me
during Barbie's scolding.
[12:05] ---
I only did it because she irritated me.
[12:12] ---
I-I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
[12:15] ---
L-Let's forget about watch duty.
[12:18] ---
I'm nothing but trouble for you two.
[12:22] ---
I-It's because I'm a failure.
[12:26] ---
Nobody even needs me.
[12:29] ---
I'm sorry.
[12:31] ---
Hurray!
[12:32] ---
I'm so glad you finally spoke!
[12:35] ---
You're no trouble.
[12:37] ---
I'm so happy I became
friends with you and Shaun.
[12:42] ---
I've also been called a failure.
[12:46] ---
But Mistress Kate protects me anyway.
[12:50] ---
Somebody needs you.
There isn't anyone who isn't needed.
[12:55] ---
I want to be friends with you.
[12:59] ---
I want to be friends
with you, too, of course!
[13:01] ---
Um, what I mean is...
[13:04] ---
Rum.
[13:06] ---
My name is Rum.
[13:11] ---
Rum!
[13:12] ---
What a wonderful name!
[13:19] ---
Hey.
[13:20] ---
Something's coming.
[13:29] ---
Could it be a phantom?
[13:43] ---
Rum!
[13:44] ---
Shaun, it's a phantom! Let's run!
[13:46] ---
No, wait.
[13:51] ---
It's a veiled doll.
[13:54] ---
What's a veiled doll?
[13:56] ---
You've never seen one before?
[13:58] ---
They bring us our food and clean clothes.
[14:01] ---
Oh, so that's who does that!
[14:03] ---
Thank you for all your help!
[14:06] ---
We're trying to get to the
bottom of the phantom mayhem.
[14:09] ---
Don't waste your breath.
Unlike us, veiled dolls don't speak.
[14:14] ---
It most likely heard our voices
and came to see what's going on.
[14:18] ---
Oh! We better go after Rum!
[14:25] ---
Where am I?
[14:28] ---
Please talk to me, Rummy.
I'm scared of the dark.
[14:32] ---
Rum, do you think they will come save you?
[14:36] ---
Who do you mean?
[14:37] ---
That doll.
[14:39] ---
She's not coming. The phantom got her.
[14:43] ---
Even if it didn't, she won't come.
[14:46] ---
I left them behind and ran.
[14:49] ---
Still, I have a feeling
she will come for you.
[14:53] ---
Living dolls are expendable.
Only the outstanding ones last very long.
[14:58] ---
It wouldn't make sense for her
to care about another doll.
[15:01] ---
Wouldn't you be happy if she did come?
[15:04] ---
Happy? I don't know
what it feels like to be happy.
[15:10] ---
Rum? Where are you? Rum?
[15:14] ---
Rum?
[15:15] ---
You're a strange one.
[15:18] ---
Strange? Mistress Kate said that, too!
[15:21] ---
"Fret not over trivial matters."
[15:23] ---
That's one of the rules living dolls
learn from the time they are born.
[15:27] ---
We live for the sake of our masters.
It's pointless to worry about other dolls.
[15:32] ---
It seems I'm not an outstanding doll.
[15:35] ---
You're right, Shaun.
[15:37] ---
I should only concern
myself with Mistress Kate.
[15:40] ---
But the way you defied Barbie
wasn't a good idea, either, was it?
[15:44] ---
It's true.
[15:46] ---
That was of no benefit to my master.
[15:49] ---
I'm not an outstanding doll, either.
[15:54] ---
Would you like a roll?
[15:58] ---
Why do you have a roll in your pocket?
[16:02] ---
Shaun, you smiled!
[16:04] ---
What do you mean?
[16:05] ---
I thought your face might be ceramic.
[16:08] ---
Our expressions are for our masters.
[16:12] ---
But your cheeks will harden
if you don't move your face.
[16:16] ---
You have a point.
[16:19] ---
There's still no sign of Rum.
[16:23] ---
What about that map of yours?
[16:26] ---
Oh, I forgot about that!
[16:29] ---
We've already searched the great hall.
[16:32] ---
We still haven't tried
[16:34] ---
the hallway that leads to the front door.
[16:46] ---
Mia left a note saying
we mustn't go there.
[16:50] ---
I'm not surprised.
[16:51] ---
Venturing outside the house,
[16:53] ---
let alone entering this hallway,
is strictly forbidden.
[16:58] ---
Nevertheless, I'm going.
We must find Rum before dawn!
[17:20] ---
Wait!
[17:28] ---
Does this mean that all who try to leave
Shadows House are immediately eliminated?
[17:34] ---
Would they really go so far?
[17:36] ---
Living dolls have thoughts and feelings
[17:38] ---
and wish to be of service
to their shadow masters.
[17:43] ---
"Fret not over trivial matters."
[17:46] ---
That's a rule living dolls must follow.
[17:49] ---
Let's head back. There's no way
Rum made it through this hallway.
[17:57] ---
Rum!
[17:58] ---
It came from behind this wall!
Show me the map!
[18:03] ---
I don't see a door that leads there.
[18:06] ---
A door?
[18:12] ---
I know how to get there!
[18:15] ---
Huh?
[18:16] ---
It's just like our rooms!
[18:23] ---
So that's it! A revolving door!
[18:27] ---
Emilico! Did you find anything?
[18:30] ---
It's too dark to see!
[18:32] ---
My whole body aches from
plunging through the door!
[18:35] ---
If you knew about the door,
you could've opened it normally.
[18:38] ---
You're absolutely right.
[18:40] ---
Ouch! I just ran into a wall.
[18:42] ---
Wait for me. I'll be right there.
[18:47] ---
Rum!
[18:51] ---
We were worried about you!
Are you all right?
[18:55] ---
We heard you scream. Did something happen?
[19:00] ---
S-S... Scorches!
[19:04] ---
Don't worry. I've dealt with them before!
[19:08] ---
Take that, and that!
[19:08] ---
Rum! Light up the room!
[19:11] ---
Take that!
[19:12] ---
And that!
[19:22] ---
A phantom!
[19:23] ---
So this is where they're coming from.
[19:26] ---
But I didn't bring any water!
[19:27] ---
That was a big mistake.
Water works great on phantoms!
[19:31] ---
We'll have to clobber it!
Try to hold it still.
[19:35] ---
Leave it to me!
[19:37] ---
But, um...
[19:38] ---
How exactly do I do that?
[19:40] ---
Here it comes!
[19:41] ---
Um... uh... Oh!
[19:44] ---
Shaun, let me borrow this.
[19:53] ---
Keep screaming so I know where you are!
[19:55] ---
The phantom is above my head!
That's your right, no left!
[20:01] ---
If I get close enough,
I can figure it out myself!
[20:07] ---
You smashed it to bits.
[20:09] ---
You're really strong, Shaun!
[20:11] ---
Tie it up just in case.
[20:15] ---
Our work's not done!
[20:19] ---
Look at that!
[20:21] ---
At what?
[20:22] ---
The trapdoor on the ceiling is loose,
and soot is leaking out.
[20:27] ---
What's soot doing up there?
[20:39] ---
Hey!
[20:48] ---
So that's it! Soot from each
room passes through the attic!
[20:52] ---
That's where the soot is leaking from.
[20:55] ---
The hinge rusted and broke,
causing the trapdoor to crack open.
[21:00] ---
The soot leaking from there
collected until it became a phantom.
[21:04] ---
So that's it.
[21:05] ---
It was nobody's fault! Case solved!
[21:12] ---
Now let's celebrate! Here's a roll!
[21:17] ---
I don't need any.
[21:26] ---
Yum!
[21:28] ---
Isn't this the bread
the Shadows family eats?
[21:31] ---
Mistress Kate shares it with me.
[21:33] ---
I wanted everyone to try it.
[21:35] ---
She's that close to her master?
[21:38] ---
She really is a strange one.
[21:41] ---
Is it yummy, Rum?
[21:50] ---
How much longer will Emilico
be working outside this room?
[21:56] ---
We promised to share information.
[22:00] ---
At this rate, we'll never
make it past the debut.

[01:36] ---
"The Debut"
[01:36] ---
Now we know!
[01:38] ---
The phantom mayhem was
caused by an equipment failure.
[01:42] ---
But if you slack off,
it will happen again!
[01:46] ---
So keep on your toes! Dismissed!
[01:51] ---
Did you see how
disappointed Barbie looked?
[01:54] ---
Rose and I know nothing about
the soot processing equipment.
[01:58] ---
The Star Bearers handle that.
Barbie must've been sleeping on the job.
[02:02] ---
Well done, Emilico!
[02:06] ---
Exchanging letters with you helped.
[02:09] ---
I never expected a handmade
doll as your reply. Thank you.
[02:14] ---
I still can't write very well,
so I let my sewing do the talking.
[02:18] ---
It's about time to return to our rooms.
[02:21] ---
So it is. We must hurry.
[02:23] ---
Bye, everyone!
[02:24] ---
Goodbye!
[02:27] ---
I really enjoyed that.
[02:46] ---
Mistress Sarah.
[02:51] ---
The debut is tomorrow?!
[02:53] ---
You've been so busy.
There was no chance to tell you.
[02:57] ---
And we couldn't study together.
[03:01] ---
Will you make that face at the debut?
[03:04] ---
You need not clean
anymore today. Go to bed now.
[03:07] ---
But...!
[03:08] ---
Your job right now is to sleep.
[03:11] ---
Yes, ma'am. Good night.
[03:19] ---
Wait.
[03:21] ---
Come here.
[03:28] ---
Laugh.
[03:29] ---
Huh?
[03:35] ---
Now, act sad.
[03:36] ---
Oh, um...
[03:42] ---
That's enough.
[03:43] ---
Huh? What was that all about?
[03:46] ---
Never mind. Hurry up and get to bed.
[03:55] ---
I've caused Mistress Kate
nothing but trouble.
[03:59] ---
I don't understand what she is feeling.
[04:04] ---
I wonder if Mia understands
everything that Mistress Sarah is feeling.
[04:16] ---
Mistress Sarah, I beg you to
give me the opportunity to grow.
[04:24] ---
Very well.
[04:36] ---
Mistress Kate told me about scorches.
[04:40] ---
She said they are soot that gathered
and started to move with ill intent.
[04:44] ---
But if that happens after
soot gathers together awhile...
[04:48] ---
Will Rolly be all right?
[04:51] ---
But it's been a while,
and he hasn't done anything bad yet.
[04:55] ---
He's full of Mistress Kate's
goodwill! He'll be fine!
[05:03] ---
We're not supposed to
go outside of the house.
[05:06] ---
I wonder if there are people out there
and whether I can meet them.
[05:11] ---
Maybe I'd learn lots of new things
if I became a Star Bearer.
[05:15] ---
If so, I want to be a Star Bearer!
[05:18] ---
We must...
[05:20] ---
become...
[05:22] ---
Star Bearers!
[05:25] ---
We shall be the ones who gain
Lord Grandfather's approval.
[05:29] ---
We haven't had our debut,
yet you waste your time with that failure!
[05:35] ---
Mia, you are to serve Sarah alone!
[05:38] ---
You are meant to make Sarah shine!
[05:41] ---
You are exceptional!
[05:46] ---
I wonder what Mistress Kate wants.
Does she want to be a Star Bearer?
[05:53] ---
But first, the debut.
[06:01] ---
If I fail at the debut,
I'll probably be discarded.
[06:06] ---
I'll never see Mistress Kate again.
[06:10] ---
I wonder if she has any friends.
[06:13] ---
I wonder what she likes to do.
[06:16] ---
I don't know anything about Mistress Kate.
[06:23] ---
I really want to make it past the debut.
[06:28] ---
Listen, Shaun.
[06:32] ---
Yes, Master John?
[06:33] ---
The debut is tomorrow.
[06:35] ---
Your nightly watch duty must be tiring,
so enough cleaning. Go rest.
[06:40] ---
Not yet.
[06:41] ---
Why?
[06:42] ---
It's my duty to finish
cleaning my master's room.
[06:46] ---
Your master, John,
is telling you to go rest.
[06:49] ---
But I cannot rest while
your room is still dirty.
[06:53] ---
You're always so stubborn.
[06:55] ---
And you haven't worn your glasses lately.
You used to wear them here.
[07:00] ---
I want to get used to not wearing them.
Plus, I have sharp ears and a good nose.
[07:05] ---
I'll wear them for detailed cleaning.
[07:08] ---
But why are you wearing glasses?
[07:11] ---
You finally asked about the glasses!
[07:14] ---
John asked a veiled doll
to find a pair just like yours!
[07:18] ---
Now there's no reason
for you not to wear glasses.
[07:21] ---
Master John, I should be
the one trying to match you.
[07:25] ---
You don't appreciate
John's attempt at a compromise?
[07:29] ---
Forgive me.
[07:30] ---
But if I don't properly
fulfill my role as a living doll,
[07:34] ---
it will lead to a poor debut evaluation.
[07:37] ---
You have a point there, Shaun.
Let's dispense with the glasses.
[07:41] ---
But get some rest. At least
fulfill one of John's requests.
[07:47] ---
Very well.
[07:48] ---
John will turn in, too.
[07:53] ---
Good night, Master John.
[08:15] ---
I have never given
Mistress Shirley a kiss good night.
[08:20] ---
Tomorrow, I'll fail at the debut,
and that will be the end of my life here.
[08:25] ---
Rum, are you okay with that?
[08:29] ---
It doesn't matter, Rummy!
I don't have anyone who...
[08:37] ---
I could be friends with her,
but it's already too late.
[08:43] ---
Black Sheep, Good-for-Nothing, and...
What was the other one, Ricky?
[08:48] ---
Sunshine, Master Patrick.
[08:52] ---
Yes, that was it!
[08:54] ---
Competition like that can only
serve to make Patrick look good.
[08:59] ---
There is one more candidate
on dimwitted Roses' team,
[09:03] ---
but she is not much of a threat.
[09:05] ---
So then, the only viable
candidate tomorrow is Patrick.
[09:09] ---
Ricky, you are a fine face.
Patrick is sure to be a Star Bearer.
[09:14] ---
Then he shall have
Lord Grandfather's love.
[09:17] ---
All who dare stand in
the way shall be struck down.
[09:21] ---
We must dispose of
Shadows House's excess baggage.
[09:24] ---
Patrick will sort
the garbage at the debut.
[09:27] ---
Will you help, Ricky?
[09:29] ---
Gladly. I will take out the
garbage once you have sorted it.
[09:34] ---
Ricky, that's the look.
[09:37] ---
That is Patrick's face, the look
of contempt for those beneath us.
[09:41] ---
Don't ever forget that face.
[09:44] ---
All done with your morning cleaning, Lou?
[09:47] ---
Then we shall pretty you up.
[09:50] ---
In addition to paintings, we can also
take and display photos at the debut.
[09:55] ---
It shall be wonderful!
[09:57] ---
Let's try some makeup, too.
[10:03] ---
Oh, how pretty. What a joy it is
to see Louise's face like this.
[10:08] ---
Aren't you happy, too, Lou?
[10:09] ---
Of course, Mistress Louise.
[10:11] ---
Oh, what flawless skin.
Louise simply must touch it.
[10:17] ---
Oh dear, we must start over
so that you'll look pretty.
[10:26] ---
I have to wear that?
[10:29] ---
That's right. We must hide
you before the debut.
[10:41] ---
A pleasure to meet you. I am Edward,
[10:44] ---
a special doll who lives in
Lord Grandfather's wing of the house.
[10:48] ---
Lord Grandfather's wing?
[10:50] ---
What does it mean to be special?
[10:53] ---
Now then, this way to the debut hall.
[11:03] ---
A question for the dolls.
[11:05] ---
Why do you suppose this corridor
to Lord Grandfather's wing is so long?
[11:11] ---
Is it a security measure?
[11:13] ---
It's so the lords can
feel safe and secure.
[11:16] ---
Living dolls shouldn't
think about such things.
[11:21] ---
We have some promising dolls as well.
[11:40] ---
Now, let the debut begin.
[11:50] ---
Are debuts always this empty?
[11:54] ---
We can't meet Lord Grandfather yet?
[11:57] ---
The living dolls may remove their veils,
and you are free to speak.
[12:02] ---
You are the candidates for today's debut.
[12:15] ---
Show me what you've got.
[12:17] ---
Umm...
[12:19] ---
Hmm?
[12:20] ---
The shadow masters are getting anxious.
They don't know what to do.
[12:25] ---
We'll be rated according
to what we do here.
[12:28] ---
I can't mess this up.
[12:31] ---
"Show me what you've got"?
What does that even mean?!
[12:34] ---
Master John!
[12:49] ---
There's food here.
Perhaps we should help ourselves.
[12:52] ---
Kate shall have some tea to start.
[12:55] ---
Louise shall have something to eat.
[12:59] ---
So, your name is Kate, is it?
[13:02] ---
Yes.
[13:03] ---
Having never met another shadow
before made Louise quite anxious.
[13:07] ---
Really? Let's be friends.
[13:09] ---
No. There is no need for that.
[13:11] ---
Huh?
[13:12] ---
Look, look!
[13:13] ---
This is Louise's face. Isn't it so pretty?
[13:17] ---
It is.
[13:18] ---
Right? So glad you agree.
[13:20] ---
One becomes so anxious
without an objective opinion.
[13:23] ---
You may tell Louise how wonderful she is.
[13:26] ---
No, thank you.
[13:27] ---
Oh, but your face says you would
like to keep looking at Louise.
[13:32] ---
That makeup makes Lou look even prettier.
[13:37] ---
Forgive me, Mistress Kate!
[13:39] ---
Your face isn't anything special.
[13:42] ---
What did you say?
[13:43] ---
Look at Patrick's face.
It's nothing like...
[13:47] ---
It's nothing like...
[13:48] ---
The fake smile of one who
doesn't know her place.
[13:51] ---
Right! It's an expression
you could not possibly make.
[13:55] ---
How rude! What an atrocious personality!
[13:57] ---
Atrocious? I beg to differ.
[13:59] ---
Patrick's face has
a marvelous personality.
[14:02] ---
Faces have personalities?
[14:08] ---
N-No! It's Patrick's marvelous
personality that exudes from his face!
[14:13] ---
Very well, if you say so.
[14:16] ---
Mistress Louise rose one rank
[14:18] ---
because the correct way to view
living dolls is as mere faces.
[14:23] ---
But that is kind of sad.
[14:26] ---
No! I must remember
my "don't fret" notebook.
[14:29] ---
Fret not over...
[14:32] ---
Rum.
[14:39] ---
Rum.
[14:41] ---
Why don't you try talking to your
shadow master with your finger?
[14:45] ---
You know, like you did with me that time?
[14:48] ---
You know about Rummy?
[14:51] ---
Rummy! I talk to my stuffed toy,
Rolly, just like Rum talks to you.
[15:01] ---
Would you like some tea?
[15:14] ---
Oh no! I left Mistress Kate all alone!
[15:23] ---
A face that forgot where its body was.
[15:27] ---
No need to be so aggressive.
It's a party. Let's have fun.
[15:33] ---
Shaun is fulfilling his role as a face.
[15:58] ---
I-It's so...
[16:00] ---
It's so yummy! It makes one
want to roll upon the floor!
[16:05] ---
Mistress Kate is acting like me now.
[16:08] ---
You're no ice queen.
You're so expressive about food.
[16:13] ---
You're John's cup of tea.
[16:14] ---
Listen, Kate. That face's behavior
has been atrocious today.
[16:19] ---
And what's with the name Emilico?
[16:21] ---
What of it?
[16:23] ---
Faces must have a name.
It's one of the rules.
[16:26] ---
Emilico? What a strange name.
[16:29] ---
A name closer to one's own is customary.
[16:32] ---
Huh?
[16:33] ---
Who knows about that shy one,
[16:36] ---
but the rest of us have such names.
[16:38] ---
Louise and Lou, John and Shaun,
Patrick and Ricky...
[16:43] ---
It's one's own face, so it's only natural.
[16:45] ---
Kate must not like her face.
[16:48] ---
It is a face so unloved.
[17:00] ---
This won't do. If we remain
so emotionally distant,
[17:03] ---
we shall fail the debut.
[17:05] ---
What is wrong with her?
[17:07] ---
Why won't she act as Kate wishes?
[17:09] ---
We must be more like Sarah and Mia.
[17:13] ---
But she frets over trivial matters.
[17:15] ---
She befriends other faces.
[17:17] ---
She let that name issue get to her.
[17:20] ---
Living dolls exist only
to be a shadow's face.
[17:24] ---
Fretting over trivial matters
amounts to defying your master.
[17:28] ---
Come what may, a doll must swear
to be ever loyal to its master.
[17:33] ---
Living dolls need not befriend each other.
[17:49] ---
What an elegant tune.
[17:51] ---
Who knew special dolls
could play the piano?
[17:56] ---
Maybe he wants us to dance to see
if we're at one with each other.
[18:00] ---
Oh, um, very well. Shall we dance, Ricky?
[18:04] ---
Oh my! Louise loves to dance.
[18:07] ---
We've practiced this dance
so very much, haven't we, Lou?
[18:12] ---
They practiced?
[18:15] ---
I don't know how to dance.
[18:21] ---
One can easily see that Louise truly
loves her face, or in short, herself.
[18:26] ---
She is leading Lou, and Lou is
surrendering to her master.
[18:31] ---
But with Patrick,
Ricky leads him at times.
[18:35] ---
Ricky is spotlighting Patrick
without standing out too much.
[18:38] ---
They are in harmony with
their similar personalities.
[18:42] ---
We're falling behind.
Emilico will never be Kate's face.
[18:47] ---
Isn't there some way
we can pass the debut?
[18:50] ---
Kate doesn't want to get eliminated here.
There is something she must do.
[19:01] ---
Would you... care to dance...
Mistress Shirley?
[19:15] ---
Thank you.
[19:21] ---
Shall we join them, Shaun?
[19:30] ---
Don't give up.
[19:37] ---
Mistress Kate! Forgive me
for feeling discouraged.
[19:40] ---
I won't give up!
[19:42] ---
I was wrong.
[19:44] ---
It was I who was not
paying attention to Emilico.
[19:49] ---
Very well. Let's dance, Emilico.
[19:52] ---
But first... laugh.
[19:55] ---
Laugh out loud.
[19:57] ---
A grand laugh.
[20:04] ---
That's it. You are fine
just the way you are.
[20:08] ---
I was never seeking
to be the perfect shadow.
[20:15] ---
Follow Kate's lead.
Her secret talent will handle the rest.
[20:19] ---
Huh? My legs are moving on their own.
[20:22] ---
Surrender yourself to Kate,
and you'll be fine.
[20:27] ---
Emilico...
[20:30] ---
look how well I can control soot now.
[20:34] ---
You're hopeless. So many blunders.
[20:37] ---
You won't ignore those in need,
and you fret over trivial matters.
[20:42] ---
You're a terrible living doll.
[20:44] ---
But I think the truly unique
part of you is wonderful.
[20:50] ---
Plus, you try hard
and are nice to everyone.
[20:53] ---
But I'd like you to pay
attention to me sometimes.
[21:19] ---
How dare a living doll
treat a shadow so rudely.
[21:24] ---
Being judged by a doll was
intolerable from the start.
[21:27] ---
Where is your shadow, Edward?
[21:30] ---
I am a special living doll.
[21:33] ---
Are you suggesting a high-ranking shadow
[21:35] ---
must appear before
a lowly shadow like you?
[21:38] ---
Still, you are shadows.
I should have paid you more respect.
[21:45] ---
Let me apologize by
showing you our lovely garden.
[21:48] ---
This way, please.
[21:50] ---
A splendid idea.
Louise would love to see it.
[21:55] ---
What do you think you're doing?
[21:57] ---
Huh?
[21:58] ---
Eat your sweets.

[00:07] ---
He means we must stay here.
[00:11] ---
The door's been locked.
[00:14] ---
I don't understand the criteria.
[00:17] ---
He's definitely watching how we
fulfill our role as a shadow face.
[00:21] ---
But why was Ricky demoted one rank?
[00:25] ---
What was the reason behind your demotion?
[00:27] ---
Enough, already!
[00:29] ---
We weren't told to dance.
[00:30] ---
So it's my fault for
taking the initiative?
[00:33] ---
You all danced, so you're just as guilty!
[00:36] ---
It probably all hinges on how
Edward feels at the moment.
[00:40] ---
That's so unfair!
[00:42] ---
We are living dolls.
[00:45] ---
The Shadows family may
treat us however they see fit.
[00:49] ---
Aren't you fretting
over trivial matters, Ricky?
[00:51] ---
You're one to talk!
[02:28] ---
What's taking so long?
Are we supposed to go, too?
[02:29] ---
"The Garden Labyrinth"
[02:32] ---
Don't be stupid. It's locked,
and he didn't tell us to come along.
[02:37] ---
Use your brain, Black Sheep.
[02:39] ---
He never said we shouldn't come!
[02:41] ---
But that's what he meant!
[02:53] ---
Please don't fight!
[02:56] ---
This is why they call you Sunshine.
[02:59] ---
We're bitter rivals.
[03:01] ---
And why in the world do
you hold your cup like that?
[03:05] ---
How sorry I feel for Kate.
[03:08] ---
You hold cups by their handle.
[03:12] ---
Elegant, right?
[03:14] ---
No one holds it in both hands.
[03:16] ---
Oh, Ricky!
[03:19] ---
Thank you for telling me!
[03:25] ---
Emilico! You're just some
unloved doll with a strange name!
[03:31] ---
Mistress Kate told me
I was fine just how I am.
[03:35] ---
And I have no right or
reason to not believe her.
[03:51] ---
Th-That's disgusting!
You're trying to mock me!
[03:54] ---
Huh?
[03:56] ---
A stone?
[03:57] ---
You fool! That's what you get
for thinking it was okay to eat!
[04:01] ---
It's more of Edward's abuse.
[04:04] ---
Hm? Where have I seen this before?
[04:07] ---
Oh, that's a fève. I read about them.
[04:10] ---
It's a small porcelain good luck charm.
[04:12] ---
One is placed inside galette des rois,
a sweet pastry eaten on New Year's.
[04:17] ---
Happiness comes to whoever finds it.
[04:19] ---
What does such useless knowledge
have to do with the debut?
[04:23] ---
There's writing on it.
[04:25] ---
Edward did say we should eat our sweets.
[04:28] ---
Maybe there are more
fèves in the other sweets.
[04:32] ---
They might spell out a message.
[04:34] ---
Nice work, Emilico!
[04:36] ---
Come on, let's eat!
[04:41] ---
All this... for the five of us?
[04:44] ---
I'm not eating that.
Your theory is just a wild guess.
[04:48] ---
Fine, if you think you know better.
[04:50] ---
But don't come crying
if your rating goes down.
[05:11] ---
"There is a good luck charm
in the galette des rois."
[05:16] ---
But that's...
[05:19] ---
What are we supposed to do with that?
[05:21] ---
Damn it! I knew this was
just more of his abuse!
[05:28] ---
I ate too much. I feel sick.
[05:38] ---
Emilico.
[06:02] ---
It opened!
[06:04] ---
This means we should go after them, right?
[06:07] ---
It might be a trap.
[06:09] ---
Besides, we don't even know
if those really are fèves.
[06:15] ---
Come on, let's go!
[06:17] ---
Worrying about our masters
isn't a trivial matter!
[06:38] ---
It was supposed to be easy.
[06:42] ---
Kate can be brought down,
no, must be brought down.
[06:46] ---
But I got her living doll all fired up.
[06:50] ---
On top of that,
[06:51] ---
when I played piano to calm myself,
Patrick and his doll start dancing!
[06:57] ---
Now Kate and her doll are closer,
making it harder to eliminate them!
[07:02] ---
This debut is a test
of my skill as a judge.
[07:06] ---
I will seem less than
motivated if no one fails.
[07:09] ---
But I can't simply fail
a pair without reason.
[07:13] ---
I must get my plan back on track!
[07:18] ---
Calm yourself, Edward.
It really isn't that difficult.
[07:24] ---
That took longer than I'd thought.
[07:26] ---
Aren't you forgetting something important?
[07:30] ---
Where are our shadow masters?
[07:33] ---
The rules are simple.
[07:35] ---
You must exit the garden
before the allotted time expires.
[07:39] ---
But first, you must save your masters.
[07:41] ---
Save them? What have you done?
[07:44] ---
You must be concerned.
It's important to feel that way.
[07:47] ---
After all, living dolls exist
for the sake of their masters.
[07:50] ---
Why are you putting us through this?!
[07:53] ---
Such questions are trivial, immaterial!
[07:56] ---
Consider carefully what
you should be thinking about
[08:00] ---
and what you should not be.
[08:02] ---
You must protect your masters,
for they are nobles.
[08:05] ---
No harm must come to a living
doll's face while in the labyrinth.
[08:09] ---
And a shadow's attire must not get dirty.
[08:13] ---
Thus far, the ranking from
the top is Lou, Shaun, Ricky, Rum,
[08:18] ---
and last, Emilico.
[08:21] ---
Higher rankings yield a greater advantage.
[08:25] ---
The items you see over there
may prove useful in this test.
[08:30] ---
The top-ranked doll chooses first.
[08:37] ---
Why choose a rock over one of those items?
[08:41] ---
Huh?
[08:45] ---
I'll take this.
[08:46] ---
That's how you choose?!
[08:48] ---
I have trouble making up my mind.
[08:50] ---
Don't neglect important decisions.
[08:52] ---
But it's not like you have
the capacity for regret.
[08:58] ---
It's not my style to carry junk around.
[09:01] ---
What is my style?
[09:03] ---
It could be trouble if she
threatens me with those shears.
[09:07] ---
Should I choose that weapon?
[09:10] ---
I need something really versatile.
[09:13] ---
Water.
[09:14] ---
Does that mean we'll
have to deal with scorches?
[09:19] ---
Bread.
[09:20] ---
This won't be over today?
We're in for a long haul?
[09:23] ---
Hurry up and choose.
You two are ranked the same.
[09:27] ---
You can decide who picks first.
[09:30] ---
All right, I'll go first.
[09:33] ---
Like hell you will!
[09:34] ---
You got some nerve!
[09:40] ---
You better stop messing with me.
[09:44] ---
You already punched me once.
Shall we pick up where we left off?
[09:50] ---
Um, why don't you say what you
want to choose at the same time?
[09:56] ---
There's but one choice!
[09:59] ---
The magnifying glass!
[09:59] ---
The soot suit!
[10:04] ---
Isn't that wonderful, you two?
[10:12] ---
Next is Rum.
[10:24] ---
A lantern during the day? That's stupid.
[10:30] ---
Ricky, you talk tough, but you
chose something to protect yourself.
[10:34] ---
Didn't you hear the rules?
No harm must come to a living doll's face.
[10:39] ---
And last, Emilico.
[10:41] ---
Hurray! What I want is still there.
[10:43] ---
I know you're lying.
There's only junk left!
[10:46] ---
Junk? What about that bread?!
[10:50] ---
You're still thinking
about food after all we ate?
[10:53] ---
Bread... That's no surprise.
[10:56] ---
Sorry, bread, not this time.
[11:00] ---
This is what I wanted!
[11:04] ---
She's an even bigger idiot than I thought!
[11:07] ---
Emilico, why'd you pick that?
[11:10] ---
It looks heavy.
[11:13] ---
I had to have this!
[11:20] ---
The sootglass takes about two hours
for the soot to go from bottom to top.
[11:25] ---
You must bring your master
to the exit before then.
[11:29] ---
Take this and wait at the entrance
I told each of you to go to.
[11:40] ---
Now, go!
[11:46] ---
A pencil, rope, scissors,
a handkerchief, and a map.
[11:55] ---
This mark looks like a small hut.
[11:59] ---
Hmm? What's this black dot?
[12:03] ---
Oh, there are five of them.
Is that where the shadow masters are?
[12:09] ---
Is that writing?
[12:11] ---
Must be a hint!
[12:13] ---
The magnifying glass was a smart move!
Maybe I can pinpoint my master's location.
[12:21] ---
I can't read it even with this.
[12:24] ---
Emilico has sharp eyes.
Maybe she could read it.
[12:34] ---
Rum! What a coincidence!
[12:39] ---
Just kidding!
My entrance was next to yours,
[12:43] ---
so I thought I might run
into you if came this way.
[12:49] ---
Me, too.
[12:53] ---
Have you decided where to go?
[12:58] ---
I'm heading for this hut mark
nearby. Let's go together!
[13:10] ---
Hm?
[13:13] ---
I'll be right back.
[13:19] ---
There's a waterway below!
[13:23] ---
I must pay more attention.
I nearly fell in.
[13:28] ---
Let's put it on the map.
[13:38] ---
Isn't this kind of fun?
[13:50] ---
I really could've used that lantern.
[14:20] ---
Hush.
[14:22] ---
Seriously? You cut a shortcut through
the hedge?! Is that even allowed?
[14:27] ---
Wait. I might be able to
use her to my advantage.
[14:33] ---
Lou, where are you headed?
[14:35] ---
Nowhere special.
[14:36] ---
Your utter lack of thought is impressive.
[14:40] ---
I think I know where
the shadow masters are.
[14:42] ---
No, you don't.
[14:43] ---
Yes, I do! There's a hint
right on the map.
[14:46] ---
What map?
[14:47] ---
Look in the bag we received!
[14:50] ---
The map has dots that seem worthless.
I'm the only one who noticed!
[14:54] ---
I'll take you there if
you hack us a shortcut.
[15:00] ---
Okay, tell me where to start.
[15:03] ---
However...
[15:05] ---
I'll give you a buzz cut if you're lying.
[15:10] ---
It's a deal!
[15:21] ---
You can put your stuff in here.
[15:23] ---
Oh, um...
[15:24] ---
Go ahead.
[15:48] ---
I'm fine.
[15:50] ---
See? I can even push it with one hand.
[16:02] ---
That was scary!
[16:04] ---
But at least it stopped.
[16:10] ---
Don't worry. I don't need help.
[16:14] ---
That was my fault.
[16:24] ---
All right!
[16:32] ---
I want to help.
[16:41] ---
We can push it up if we work together.
[16:51] ---
I was trying to be strong.
[17:01] ---
We can get more done by working together!
[17:24] ---
We made it!
[17:30] ---
Nice work!
[17:37] ---
An explosion?!
[17:39] ---
Did someone trigger a trap?
[17:43] ---
Soot really packs a punch.
[17:56] ---
The air is so refreshing.
[18:00] ---
A stroll might be nice.
[18:07] ---
This place is huge!
[18:09] ---
We can see all sorts
of things from up here.
[18:17] ---
Is that... soot?
[18:28] ---
There are little black dots here.
[18:30] ---
I know! These are where
the shadow masters are!
[18:34] ---
This dot is nearby. Let's go have a look!
[18:43] ---
I'll pick a few more
oranges for Mistress Kate.
[18:54] ---
Edward said wait here
till someone comes, but...
[19:01] ---
Maybe this soot power could help.
[19:05] ---
Or is it risky drawing attention to it?
[19:10] ---
It is so tempting, though.
[19:12] ---
Oh, it's you, Kate.
[19:14] ---
That's an interesting spot.
[19:16] ---
John!
[19:17] ---
This is perfect.
There's a question that cannot wait.
[19:22] ---
John wants your hand in marriage!
[19:26] ---
Not a chance.
[19:27] ---
Don't be so hasty.
John has taken a fancy to you.
[19:30] ---
He shall be King of Shadows House.
[19:33] ---
You will not regret this.
[19:35] ---
What's with him? Is he an utter fool?
[19:38] ---
Are you saying you'll help
if we're to be married?
[19:41] ---
Kate will not marry
someone so calculating.
[19:44] ---
Yes, that was the plan.
[19:47] ---
Quite perceptive.
You are the one for John.
[19:50] ---
I wish he'd go away already.
[19:53] ---
John was put in a crate,
[19:55] ---
but with a wham, bang, kaboom,
he blew it to bits and escaped!
[20:00] ---
If you overcome this ordeal
on your own, we'll be equals.
[20:04] ---
Then we may revisit the subject.
[20:07] ---
Wait. Didn't Shaun help you escape?
[20:10] ---
No, John did it without
anyone else's help.
[20:14] ---
How?
[20:15] ---
Weren't you listening?
It was like, wham, bang, kaboom!
[20:19] ---
It doesn't appear he was
consciously controlling soot.
[20:23] ---
But in your case...
[20:28] ---
that cage is quite a sight to see.
[20:31] ---
It looks more challenging
than John's crate.
[20:33] ---
How will Shaun find you if
you're not where you should be?
[20:37] ---
Oh, right. We were told to wait.
Shaun was supposed to come?
[20:42] ---
So that's it. You're a smart one, Kate.
[20:44] ---
Goodbye for now. Call John really
loud if you wish to be saved.
[20:51] ---
There were no repercussions
for his conspicuous use of soot.
[20:55] ---
Good to know.
[20:57] ---
And it's good to know that there are
other shadows who can control soot.
[21:02] ---
This whole test is like one big spectacle.
[21:07] ---
This debut...
[21:09] ---
It's as if someone were watching us.
[21:18] ---
It seems John failed
to throw Kate off-kilter.
[21:22] ---
But his high soot volume
was quite impressive.
[21:27] ---
Epic failures are more entertaining
than outstanding candidates.
[21:30] ---
What vulgar tastes you have.
This is a test.
[21:34] ---
Oh, please. It is one of
the few diversions we have.
[21:37] ---
John and that labyrinth-chopping
doll are most entertaining.
[21:42] ---
But Edward went through such
pains to create it, the poor fellow.
[21:46] ---
Does he mean to be a gardener?
His obstinate personality is clear to see.
[21:51] ---
Should you not say, earnest?
[21:53] ---
He is trying to please
Lord Grandfather, no doubt.
[21:57] ---
In any case, Edward's bias in
regards to the test is unflattering.
[22:01] ---
Notably, his treatment
of poor last-place Kate.
[22:05] ---
Even worse, her living doll
has sunshine on the brain.

[01:36] ---
"An Incomplete Map"
[01:41] ---
Hey, Gerald.
[01:43] ---
These two have stopped moving.
[01:45] ---
They're the ones who will fail.
Never take your eyes off them.
[01:49] ---
Forgive me.
[01:53] ---
Perhaps we should send Edward a message.
[01:56] ---
Aileen.
[01:58] ---
Yes, ma'am,
[02:24] ---
Must they send these inane messages?
[02:26] ---
And can't these soot pigeons
deliver them quietly?
[02:32] ---
Come look at this! Shaun is going down!
[02:34] ---
What?!
[02:50] ---
Oh, it was just a pit trap.
[02:53] ---
That fool!
[02:54] ---
Neglecting to show elevation
on the map was by design?
[02:59] ---
As expected, it seems
Lou will arrive first.
[03:02] ---
Perhaps not.
[03:04] ---
It's about to get interesting.
[03:17] ---
Lou!
[03:21] ---
What the hell?
[03:27] ---
Is Lou out of the picture?
[03:39] ---
Lou! Wait! I wasn't trying
to steal your shears!
[03:43] ---
I'm, um... so glad... you're all right!
[03:49] ---
Has my face been harmed?
[03:58] ---
I can't tell when you're that close.
[04:02] ---
You look fine.
[04:03] ---
Then let's go.
[04:05] ---
Do you have any feelings at all?
[04:09] ---
She ignored me!
[04:13] ---
I'm amazed you didn't fall off that cliff.
[04:15] ---
I grabbed a vine and hung on.
[04:19] ---
You're bleeding. Doesn't it hurt?
[04:22] ---
It hurts.
[04:25] ---
Wait.
[04:29] ---
Sit.
[04:31] ---
There. That should do it.
[04:34] ---
Seeing you all bloodied was repulsive.
[04:36] ---
You're concerned for me?
[04:38] ---
Don't flatter yourself!
[04:40] ---
The only one I'm worried
about is Master Patrick.
[04:44] ---
I imagine he's feeling quite anxious.
[04:51] ---
Damn it. What is this place?
[04:55] ---
How dare you coop Patrick up like this?
You'll pay for this, Edward.
[05:02] ---
Ricky, get over here, already.
Come to the rescue.
[05:07] ---
You will come, won't you?
[05:10] ---
What is Patrick supposed
to do without you?
[05:14] ---
Somebody open up this damn thing!
[05:17] ---
Enough! This is absurd!
Don't keep Patrick cooped up like this!
[05:21] ---
This is no way to treat a shadow!
[05:25] ---
Please. This is unbearable.
[05:28] ---
Ricky. Ricky...
[05:35] ---
Master Patrick?
[05:36] ---
Is that your voice I hear?
[05:40] ---
Don't worry. I'll help you.
[05:44] ---
Good day, Master Patrick. Can you see me?
[05:48] ---
I don't think he can see you
with your eye pressed so close.
[05:52] ---
Oh, really?
[05:55] ---
You're... Sunshine? Emilico, was it?
[06:00] ---
That's me!
[06:04] ---
Wait, did you hear what Patrick
was saying a moment ago?
[06:08] ---
Yes. I'm sorry, but I heard what you said.
[06:11] ---
This is absurd! Patrick doesn't
get rescued out of pity!
[06:14] ---
And especially not by a failure like you!
[06:18] ---
Get out of here!
No one makes a fool of Patrick!
[06:21] ---
I'm not!
[06:22] ---
Liar! How could you not be?!
[06:24] ---
I said I'm not!
[06:25] ---
Put a cork in it! Go away, already!
[06:27] ---
I can't do that!
[06:31] ---
No one would wish to be
left all alone in such a place.
[06:36] ---
I never imagined that a shadow master
would be confined like this.
[06:40] ---
I'm worried about Mistress Kate.
[06:44] ---
And Ricky is worried
about you, Master Patrick.
[06:48] ---
I know! I'll catch you up about Ricky.
[06:51] ---
Edward read us a rule that said no harm
must come to a living doll's face.
[06:56] ---
So Ricky chose a soot suit
to protect his face.
[06:59] ---
He's really using his brain.
[07:02] ---
Oh, and a shadow's attire
must not get dirty.
[07:05] ---
You must take care, Master Patrick.
[07:08] ---
Let's see. The crate is locked,
and there's a single air hole.
[07:12] ---
Are there any hints about opening it?
[07:15] ---
You won't pass the
test if you help Patrick.
[07:19] ---
How can I fail for helping?
As long as I'm being of service,
[07:22] ---
I'm more than happy!
[07:26] ---
Enough. Hurry up and go find Kate.
[07:29] ---
Huh?! But--
[07:30] ---
Save your scorn!
[07:32] ---
Ricky will be the one to save Patrick!
He will come.
[07:36] ---
Besides, it will look bad
if Patrick doesn't wait.
[07:41] ---
I almost stole Ricky's
chance to do his job.
[07:45] ---
Well, please at least accept
what I drop through the hole.
[07:53] ---
What's this?
[07:54] ---
An orange. It will boost your energy.
[07:58] ---
Here's one more thing.
[08:01] ---
It's a pretty flower I picked on the way.
[08:04] ---
It will help the time fly
if you look at it.
[08:08] ---
Goodbye.
[08:16] ---
Next time, I look forward to
seeing you along with Mistress Kate.
[08:25] ---
A flower? Sunshine really is
the perfect nickname for her.
[08:42] ---
A heavy door? That's some
pretty plain-vanilla abuse.
[08:46] ---
Shaun!
[08:48] ---
Emilico!
[08:50] ---
Three of the dolls have
come together here.
[08:53] ---
Shaun certainly looks promising.
[08:55] ---
If Dorothy were Sunshine,
she'd use him to her advantage.
[08:59] ---
Sunshine does not think like that.
[09:02] ---
If Ryan were Shaun,
[09:04] ---
he would use that heavy door
to trap and eliminate them.
[09:09] ---
Then again, trapping them
would be a waste.
[09:12] ---
Their looks of despair
would truly be a sight to see!
[09:16] ---
What a creep.
[09:17] ---
Have you not read their profiles?
The three of them are fast friends.
[09:22] ---
And neither of you is Shaun or Emilico.
[09:26] ---
This is what makes those two so unlikable.
[09:30] ---
Something is written under the dots
marking the shadow masters' locations.
[09:35] ---
But I can't see very well.
[09:37] ---
Can you read it?
[09:40] ---
This isn't writing!
[09:41] ---
It's not?
[09:42] ---
It looks like a line.
[09:44] ---
No one can write that small.
[09:47] ---
That's true.
[09:49] ---
Let's share our routes so far.
[09:51] ---
The black dots caught my eye,
[09:54] ---
but I wanted to join up
with you first, so I came here.
[09:57] ---
Wouldn't you rather investigate
that explosion together?
[10:00] ---
This dot is Master Patrick.
[10:03] ---
I think the explosion was here,
where there's a shadow master.
[10:06] ---
I saw it from high up.
[10:07] ---
I suspected as much.
[10:09] ---
It has me worried,
so let's head there next.
[10:11] ---
Sounds good.
[10:13] ---
If we want the shortest route
through the labyrinth,
[10:17] ---
we'll have to pass through
the area we are in now.
[10:23] ---
Another head-scratcher.
[10:26] ---
It's not on the map.
[10:29] ---
And there's no way to open these bars.
[10:32] ---
Can't you climb over the wall?
[10:35] ---
No, the trees on the
other side are full of thorns.
[10:38] ---
Plus, we found each other.
Let's finish this together.
[10:42] ---
Thank you so much!
[10:50] ---
There's something
about these animal statues.
[10:54] ---
There's a gap at the base.
[10:59] ---
It turns!
[11:05] ---
Muddy water!
[11:06] ---
Now that's a stupid trap.
[11:10] ---
Forgive me, Shaun!
I didn't mean to get you dirty!
[11:13] ---
Don't worry.
[11:15] ---
Now we know the statues move.
[11:17] ---
I bet one of them is a
switch for opening the bars.
[11:20] ---
But the others could be more traps.
[11:23] ---
There might even be one
that harms your face.
[11:27] ---
Maybe we should take the long way through.
[11:30] ---
You're overthinking things, Shaun.
[11:33] ---
Let's relax on this bench
and eat an orange!
[11:37] ---
You'll never change.
Is that from the greenhouse?
[11:41] ---
That's a lot of stuff.
[11:43] ---
It will be hard to push uphill.
[11:45] ---
We already did.
[11:49] ---
The weight from sitting...
[11:51] ---
That's it!
[11:52] ---
The statues are a diversion.
The bench is the switch!
[11:56] ---
And it's built for three.
Let's all sit down!
[12:04] ---
Nothing happened!
[12:06] ---
Oh, right. Masters
and dolls come in pairs.
[12:09] ---
There's no need for a three-seater.
[12:12] ---
F-Forgive me.
[12:13] ---
It was Shaun's idea for
the three of us to sit.
[12:16] ---
Oh, um... Benches such as
these are often found in gardens.
[12:20] ---
They are placed for
viewing special scenery.
[12:23] ---
The view here is quite nice!
[12:25] ---
The way those trees overlap
makes them look like a rabbit!
[12:34] ---
Let's go!
[12:41] ---
What in the world happened?
[12:47] ---
Soot.
[12:48] ---
There are footprints here.
[12:50] ---
Whose could they be?
[12:53] ---
Master John.
[12:54] ---
Let's follow them!
[12:56] ---
Was he caught in a trap?
Who would do such a thing?
[13:00] ---
Master John!
[13:06] ---
It's hard to see around here,
and the footprints are gone.
[13:10] ---
He's moving on his own,
so he must be fine!
[13:13] ---
Maybe he's on a walk!
[13:14] ---
You're right. That sounds like
something Master John would do.
[13:20] ---
A phantom!
[13:21] ---
No, it's just a folly.
Don't scare me like that.
[13:25] ---
What's a folly?
[13:26] ---
A structure or other feature placed
in a garden for decorative purposes.
[13:30] ---
They can even be hideous.
[13:34] ---
It's huge! I'm going to climb up!
[13:37] ---
Go ahead. I'll devise a plan.
[13:39] ---
Okay!
[13:41] ---
If Master John is on a walk,
he'll be hard to find.
[13:44] ---
With this terrain, we could
nearly cross paths and not notice.
[13:48] ---
Maybe we should split up and search.
[13:50] ---
It's Emilico from the beast's hair!
[13:54] ---
I started out so close to Master John,
but I was so bent on solving riddles
[14:00] ---
that I ended up heading
in Emilico's direction.
[14:02] ---
That's just like you, Shaun.
[14:08] ---
Master John?!
[14:09] ---
Hi.
[14:10] ---
What are you doing up there?
[14:12] ---
What is John doing? This folly is
so big and perfect for climbing.
[14:18] ---
I'm glad you're safe.
[14:20] ---
How'd you get out of the crate?
[14:22] ---
Soot is quite remarkable.
[14:24] ---
Or perhaps one could say,
John is quite remarkable.
[14:29] ---
In short, it was like, wham, bang, kaboom!
[14:34] ---
Master John, you have
some amazing soot power, too!
[14:38] ---
Shaun?
[14:39] ---
Master John, your clothes are...
[14:44] ---
A shadow's attire
[14:46] ---
must not
[14:47] ---
get dirty.
[14:49] ---
What?! No one told John about that.
[14:52] ---
Is there nothing we could do?
[14:54] ---
I don't know.
[14:55] ---
Shadows emit soot that
slowly dirties their clothes.
[14:59] ---
Putting someone like that
in such a confined space...
[15:03] ---
Damn you, Edward!
[15:06] ---
John's power will blow away
every speck of soot!
[15:09] ---
Master John, you'll just make it worse!
[15:11] ---
Depriving one of such information
results in a huge disadvantage!
[15:16] ---
John must go back and warn Kate!
[15:19] ---
Did you see Mistress Kate?
[15:22] ---
John is aiming for the top!
[15:28] ---
What?
[15:29] ---
In other words, the path that
goes uphill leads to Mistress Kate!
[15:34] ---
Emilico, why do you suddenly
understand everything Master John says?
[15:38] ---
John had a word with Kate and...
[15:44] ---
What's the matter?!
[15:47] ---
Your fiancée?!
[15:49] ---
King of Shadows House?!
[15:50] ---
Not another word!
John knows what you're thinking!
[15:54] ---
It sounds completely crazy.
[15:57] ---
Blurting it all out like
that was not intentional!
[16:00] ---
But it can't be helped
when one is nervous.
[16:04] ---
I never knew Master John lost
his inhibitions when nervous.
[16:08] ---
Don't feel blue.
[16:09] ---
Have an orange!
[16:11] ---
That's a map, not a napkin.
[16:13] ---
Come to think of it, you're Kate's face.
[16:16] ---
Yes, sir!
[16:18] ---
Don't tell her what you just heard.
[16:20] ---
Yes, sir!
[16:21] ---
Here you are.
[16:28] ---
You're adorable, like a little sister,
but a bit too childish for Kate's face.
[16:34] ---
Then again, John fell
for what's inside of Kate.
[16:38] ---
Plus, she has fine soot.
[16:40] ---
And you can tell how beautiful
her heart is by looking at her face.
[16:44] ---
The face one cultivates
reflects one's self.
[16:47] ---
That means Kate must have
an adorable side just like you.
[16:51] ---
Nobility and sweetness all in one package!
[16:55] ---
But enough about that.
[16:57] ---
Emilico, it won't be easy saving Kate.
[17:01] ---
Huh?
[17:04] ---
Oh, I see. Mistress Kate is
in a frightening predicament.
[17:09] ---
Surely you'll think of something.
[17:12] ---
You're a fine face.
[17:15] ---
Shaun, may I borrow your magnifying glass?
[17:18] ---
I will check the route to Mistress Kate.
[17:21] ---
It's too dark here.
[17:23] ---
Rum, may I borrow your lantern?
[17:25] ---
Mm-hmm.
[17:29] ---
Magnifying glasses are so much fun!
[17:32] ---
Oh, an ant just crawled onto the map!
[17:35] ---
Stop playing around.
[17:36] ---
She's far too optimistic,
but it's one of her charms.
[17:41] ---
You know that writing you thought
was under the dots? I figured it out.
[17:46] ---
I thought it was a single line,
but a closer look reveals dashes.
[17:50] ---
It's a code for the rankings
we received in the debut hall.
[17:55] ---
Here's Master John...
[17:57] ---
Master Patrick...
[17:59] ---
Mistress Louise...
[18:01] ---
Mistress Shirley...
[18:04] ---
and Mistress Kate!
[18:05] ---
Now we know where each shadow master is!
[18:09] ---
Isn't that wonderful, Rum?
Mistress Shirley is close by.
[18:14] ---
I held the map too close,
and it started to burn!
[18:17] ---
But what an interesting pattern!
[18:19] ---
There are scorches where
the orange juice dripped.
[18:23] ---
There are other strange
scorches like this one.
[18:29] ---
Let's try my map, too.
[18:31] ---
Try John's, too.
[18:32] ---
Master John?!
[18:35] ---
Nice work, Rum!
[18:40] ---
The dark areas that appear are...
[18:42] ---
Elevation! This will help figure out
how the paths are connected!
[18:47] ---
You're amazing, Shaun!
[18:49] ---
We should check the sootglass
to see how much time is left.
[18:53] ---
Sootglass, sootglass...
[18:57] ---
There's 50 minutes left.
[19:00] ---
"Based on the amount of soot in the
sootglass and the distance walked..."
[19:06] ---
Forget the sootglass.
She calculated the time!
[19:09] ---
Wow. Who knew you could do that?
[19:12] ---
Now then...
[19:13] ---
What shall we do with Master John's
soot-stained clothes?
[19:17] ---
Maybe there's a change
of clothes near the exit.
[19:20] ---
Besides, is it really that bad?
[19:23] ---
You're filthy.
[19:25] ---
What a royal pain.
John is going to clobber Edward!
[19:27] ---
Wait a moment.
[19:29] ---
I think I figured it out.
[19:32] ---
Look at this.
[19:33] ---
There's no soot there!
[19:35] ---
Let's go have a look, Shaun.
[19:37] ---
Yes, sir.
[19:38] ---
But we can't see the rest of
the information on your map.
[19:49] ---
She said she's memorized
the map, so you can have hers.
[19:53] ---
The whole map? Really?!
[19:55] ---
Thanks, Rum.
[19:56] ---
One more thing.
[19:58] ---
About the path that leads to Kate...
[20:02] ---
The bridge John crossed to get there
[20:04] ---
collapsed.
[20:05] ---
What?!
[20:06] ---
There was a warning
written in front of it.
[20:09] ---
It said, "Two crossings only."
[20:11] ---
The only way now is
that dreadful maze below.
[20:15] ---
I'm getting dizzy just looking at it.
[20:17] ---
All your wandering has complicated things.
[20:21] ---
Shaun, you've adopted a rather
casual tone toward your master.
[20:24] ---
F-Forgive me.
[20:27] ---
No.
[20:29] ---
It's perfect.
[20:31] ---
There's only one path on the
lower level that leads to the exit.
[20:35] ---
So it's Mistress Kate,
[20:37] ---
Mistress Shirley,
[20:38] ---
and then the exit.
[20:39] ---
That's the only route from here.
[20:42] ---
No, we should use this path on the
right to head back the way you came.
[20:47] ---
The path to Mistress Kate
looks kind of hard.
[20:50] ---
I want to help you.
[20:52] ---
You already did.
[20:55] ---
You noticed the lines below the dots.
[20:58] ---
And you told me how
benches are used in gardens.
[21:01] ---
I wouldn't have noticed the rabbit unless
you had told me about viewing the scenery.
[21:07] ---
I've gotten this far thanks
to you, Rum, and Master John.
[21:13] ---
Each doll must save their own master.
[21:16] ---
That's what Master Patrick told me.
[21:19] ---
Shaun, you must be
the one to save Master John!
[21:27] ---
You're right.
[21:30] ---
Well, Emilico, this is where we part ways.
[21:33] ---
All right.
[21:34] ---
Rum, at first I thought you were
all wishy-washy and helpless.
[21:39] ---
But I was wrong. You're quite
capable, and you've got guts.
[21:54] ---
May we all make it through
the debut and meet once more!
[22:18] ---
No ash, no, just shadow
[22:22] ---
A no- "I" body, like a dolly
[22:26] ---
I'm hollow, where'd I go?
[22:30] ---
Nobody knows
[22:33] ---
A murky "I" with black-hole eyes
[22:37] ---
A mimic, oh my! I'm in disguise?
[22:41] ---
"Thank you"? Thank who?
[22:44] ---
Every answer is true
[22:47] ---
If I am no one
[22:51] ---
And I can do nothing
[22:55] ---
Is it a waste to keep living?
[22:58] ---
Is it wrong to go on?
[23:02] ---
What's missing here is me, me, me
[23:07] ---
Without a self
[23:09] ---
Swept away before anyone see, see, sees
[23:14] ---
Like dust from the shelf
[23:17] ---
Neither happy nor sad
[23:21] ---
Don't feel good or bad
[23:24] ---
Not up to snuff
[23:26] ---
I can't even bluff
[23:32] ---
Would you believe this stuff?

[00:07] ---
Where are our shadow masters?
[00:09] ---
The rules are simple.
[00:11] ---
You must exit the garden
before the allotted time expires.
[00:15] ---
But first, you must save your masters.
[00:17] ---
Save them? What have you done?
[00:20] ---
You must be concerned.
It's important to feel that way.
[00:23] ---
After all, living dolls exist
for the sake of their masters.
[00:27] ---
Why are you putting us through this?!
[00:29] ---
Such questions are trivial, immaterial!
[00:32] ---
Consider carefully what you
should be thinking about
[00:36] ---
and what you should not be.
[00:38] ---
You must protect your masters,
for they are nobles.
[00:41] ---
No harm must come to a living doll's
face while in the labyrinth.
[00:46] ---
And a shadow's attire must not get dirty.
[00:49] ---
The sootglass takes about two hours
for the soot to go from bottom to top.
[00:54] ---
You must bring your master
to the exit before then.
[00:58] ---
Take this and wait at the entrance
I told each of you to go to.
[02:36] ---
"In the Palm of His Hand"
[02:41] ---
Her dress has been sewn to the chair.
[02:47] ---
"A flower that causes a rash if touched."
[02:50] ---
Each shadow master has been
restrained in a different manner.
[02:56] ---
What a pleasant surprise.
[02:59] ---
I don't even know her name.
[03:01] ---
We must each go save our own master.
[03:06] ---
You must wait for Rum to come for you.
[03:12] ---
Let's go.
[03:16] ---
Talk about creepy.
[03:18] ---
You and Rum hardly ever speak,
but she's a different kind of scary.
[03:22] ---
You're criticizing a master?
[03:25] ---
N-No! I meant scary in
a reverential sort of way.
[03:29] ---
Don't put words in my mouth!
[03:31] ---
And would you take off that sack already?
[03:37] ---
It protects my face.
I got the idea from your mask.
[03:40] ---
Oh, I see.
[03:42] ---
So you're just another one
who only thinks about themself.
[03:47] ---
You spied Mistress Kate from afar
but didn't stop to help.
[03:51] ---
Are you done pretending
to be friends with Emilico?
[03:54] ---
Emilico will save Mistress Kate.
[03:56] ---
Rum will save her own shadow master.
[03:59] ---
I will save Mistress Louise.
[04:01] ---
It's that simple.
[04:03] ---
Damn her. She's unflappable.
[04:06] ---
Mistress Kate told me
I was fine just how I am.
[04:10] ---
And I have no right or
reason to not believe her.
[04:15] ---
They are all so...
[04:17] ---
How could I not be the
most outstanding doll of all?
[04:21] ---
No way I'm losing to the likes of them.
[04:33] ---
Look! There's soot rising into the sky.
[04:38] ---
Mistress Louise.
[04:45] ---
The soot's gone?
[04:47] ---
Where did it go?
[04:50] ---
And why'd you think
it was Mistress Louise?
[04:53] ---
All we could see was soot.
[04:55] ---
I saw the other shadow
masters in the debut hall.
[04:59] ---
Mistress Kate's soot goes straight up.
[05:02] ---
Master John's looks like sparks.
[05:04] ---
Master Patrick's
spreads in all directions.
[05:07] ---
I couldn't tell with Rum's mistress.
[05:10] ---
Mistress Louise's soot curls.
[05:14] ---
They emit soot in a different
manner? I had no idea.
[05:18] ---
But she did.
[05:20] ---
She noticed something
about Patrick before I did.
[05:24] ---
But I don't know why she's gone.
[05:27] ---
She'd call out to me if she were here.
[05:30] ---
After all, Mistress Louise loves me.
[05:33] ---
Maybe she's unable to
speak for some reason.
[05:36] ---
That must be it! This must also
be a test for the shadow masters.
[05:41] ---
But what are they being tested for?
[05:43] ---
That soot we just saw may have
been an accident, but it drew us here.
[05:48] ---
It indicates that a shadow
master is hidden here.
[05:53] ---
Considering where we've
looked so far, this won't be hard.
[05:57] ---
After all, shadow masters
emit soot when anxious.
[06:01] ---
It seems you're not here,
so I'll go look elsewhere.
[06:05] ---
No, there is a master here!
[06:08] ---
That was on purpose.
[06:11] ---
Mistress Louise can't get
enough of my face and voice.
[06:15] ---
Enough with all the bragging!
[06:18] ---
I, too, have my master's--
[06:19] ---
No.
[06:21] ---
Simply hearing my voice puts her at ease.
[06:36] ---
"Make a rope ladder to save her."
[06:45] ---
Oh, that was positively horrible!
[06:47] ---
Lou, how lovely your face is!
Let Louise have a good look!
[06:53] ---
Hmm? Who is this?
[06:54] ---
Ricky. He helped me get here.
[06:58] ---
O lovely Mistress Louise, it is my
pleasure to be at your service.
[07:03] ---
How repulsive!
[07:05] ---
You followed Louise's lovely face here?
[07:09] ---
How dare a living doll be attracted to
a shadow's face? You forget your place.
[07:13] ---
No, you have it all wrong.
[07:16] ---
Or perhaps it is Patrick who
is fond of Louise. Is that it?
[07:20] ---
Well, a pity for you, but we think not.
Patrick is but a minor figure.
[07:24] ---
The answer is no! No, no, no!
[07:27] ---
Lou...
[07:31] ---
Your work is done here. You may go.
[07:35] ---
How Louise missed her face!
[07:37] ---
Let's get a good look at you.
[07:39] ---
How shocking it was to hear
you say you were not here!
[07:43] ---
You were relying on Louise's soot
to seek her out, were you not?
[07:46] ---
Oh, but we must hurry back
to the hall if we are to win!
[07:51] ---
The fools. They've let their guard down.
[07:55] ---
If I shove them into one of these pits...
[08:05] ---
This is that dreadful maze
that Master John mentioned.
[08:11] ---
Let's go!
[08:20] ---
S-S-Scorches.
[08:22] ---
Th-There's so many.
[08:24] ---
That gave me goosebumps.
[08:27] ---
Now's the time to make a you-know-what!
[08:30] ---
A what?
[08:36] ---
I knew right away that I could make one.
[08:39] ---
With my pushcart,
I can collect whatever I need.
[08:43] ---
And its handle is perfect
for making a broom!
[08:47] ---
She didn't choose the pushcart
in order to carry Mistress Kate?!
[08:52] ---
The bag we received from
Edward gave me another good idea.
[08:58] ---
To help Mistress Kate
return to her everyday life,
[09:04] ---
I must start by dressing as I always have!
[09:08] ---
It's a bit awkward, but...
[09:11] ---
Emilico always has Mistress Kate in mind.
[09:16] ---
But in my case...
[09:19] ---
All ready, Rum? We're going in!
[09:29] ---
Take that!
[09:30] ---
They run if hit from above!
[09:34] ---
Now let's try sideways!
[09:47] ---
Nice one, Rum!
[09:50] ---
Umm...
[09:52] ---
Let's take the left path here,
[09:54] ---
then right at the next branch.
[09:57] ---
You have a fabulous memory, Rum!
[10:01] ---
Something's wrong. We've gone too far.
[10:04] ---
Huh?
[10:08] ---
There was no path branching right,
or perhaps we missed it.
[10:18] ---
Where did we go wrong?
[10:20] ---
It's all wrong.
[10:22] ---
This maze is nothing like the map.
[10:25] ---
The map is probably a lie.
[10:26] ---
You really think so?
[10:38] ---
I'll get rid of the scorches!
[10:41] ---
Rum, see if you can figure out the map!
[10:45] ---
Emilico is counting on me.
[10:49] ---
But I don't know if I can do it.
Rummy, what do you think?
[10:53] ---
There is more to what
Edward said than mere lies.
[10:56] ---
There must be a hint somewhere.
[10:59] ---
A hint?
[11:00] ---
Master John was right about this maze.
It truly is dreadful!
[11:06] ---
The bridge collapsed after
taking the upper route.
[11:12] ---
Emilico, look up there.
[11:18] ---
It's a hut mark, just like on the map!
[11:20] ---
If that's a hut mark up there,
then our current location is...
[11:25] ---
I figured it out!
[11:27] ---
It means we are in the lower area
surrounded by walls.
[11:31] ---
So then this maze doesn't have an exit?
[11:34] ---
No! "Up" is written
inside of that hut mark!
[11:39] ---
There must be a way up somewhere!
[11:41] ---
Let's go find it!
[11:45] ---
That tunnel over there goes up.
[11:47] ---
Let's give it a try!
[11:54] ---
Look!
[11:55] ---
That's our way out!
[11:57] ---
There are more scorches.
[11:59] ---
They never give up.
[12:00] ---
But I can't use the
broom and hold the cart.
[12:04] ---
We can do it.
[12:06] ---
Okay!
[12:07] ---
Here we go!
[12:09] ---
Ready, go!
[12:12] ---
Hang on!
[12:26] ---
We did it!
[12:31] ---
Oh, look at that.
[12:35] ---
There's an opening in the hedge.
[12:37] ---
That's a shortcut to Mistress Shirley.
[12:41] ---
I wonder if it's a trap.
[12:45] ---
I bet Lou did this with her shears!
[12:49] ---
We're all helping each other
even when we don't know it!
[12:52] ---
Now you can go see Mistress Shirley!
[12:58] ---
We've been working
as a team the whole time.
[13:00] ---
It's sad to part ways here,
[13:02] ---
but you'll get to see
Mistress Shirley again!
[13:09] ---
Rum! Are you not feeling well?
Have you been hurt?
[13:14] ---
Once I save Mistress Kate,
maybe I can come help you.
[13:19] ---
It's not that.
[13:22] ---
Rum isn't Mistress Shirley's face.
[13:30] ---
So then...
[13:32] ---
who's your true shadow master?
[13:36] ---
No, what I mean is I'm not Rum!
[13:42] ---
Y-You're not the real Rum?
[13:46] ---
Mistress Shirley... never gave me a name.
[13:54] ---
We've never even had a conversation.
[13:58] ---
After Rummy and I
started talking to each other,
[14:01] ---
that's when Rummy first called me Rum.
[14:05] ---
Mistress Shirley doesn't love me.
[14:08] ---
I have no right to even try and save her.
[14:13] ---
I had no idea.
[14:16] ---
Furthermore, I only think about myself.
[14:21] ---
You're always thinking about Kate,
[14:26] ---
but all I ever thought about was how
much I wanted to make it past the debut.
[14:31] ---
I wasn't thinking about Mistress Shirley.
[14:38] ---
Mistress Shirley emits next to no soot,
[14:42] ---
and her room barely needs cleaning.
[14:45] ---
There's nothing for me to do.
[14:48] ---
I want to make it past the debut,
[14:52] ---
but maybe Mistress Shirley
doesn't feel the same.
[14:56] ---
I can't see her emotions.
[15:02] ---
That's right. We can't see them.
[15:05] ---
And because we can't see them,
I use my imagination.
[15:11] ---
The members of the
Shadows family have it hard.
[15:14] ---
Their soot only expresses
their negative emotions.
[15:18] ---
They can't see themselves.
Perhaps that makes them feel anxious.
[15:23] ---
Mistress Kate and I don't
always get along so well.
[15:27] ---
However...
[15:29] ---
we don't want to want to increase
the sadness they already feel.
[15:34] ---
So I want to liven things up
by having fun whenever possible!
[15:38] ---
Now I can't stop thinking
about Mistress Shirley.
[15:42] ---
Let's use our imagination!
[15:43] ---
Perhaps she's like you
and doesn't like to talk.
[15:47] ---
And if she doesn't emit much soot,
it might mean she's satisfied with you.
[15:53] ---
Perhaps she's so obsessed with cleaning
that you never need to clean her room.
[15:58] ---
Perhaps she's always trying to
make you laugh by making funny faces.
[16:03] ---
Will I get in trouble
for saying such things?
[16:13] ---
I want to... make it past the debut...
[16:20] ---
...with Mistress Shirley!
[16:22] ---
After the debut,
[16:24] ---
we can meet again as Mistress Kate
and Mistress Shirley's faces!
[16:28] ---
And I hope you can be
friends with Mistress Kate!
[16:37] ---
See you soon!
[16:51] ---
One of the chains... broke?
[16:55] ---
What's going on?
[16:59] ---
Another one?
[17:01] ---
If they all break...
[17:05] ---
That vent is drawing in the soot.
[17:09] ---
Were the chains designed to
break as the soot accumulates?
[17:13] ---
If the soot doesn't stop...
[17:16] ---
It's no use. There's no stopping it.
[17:18] ---
Controlling the soot
[17:20] ---
doesn't get rid of
these negative feelings.
[17:24] ---
Emilico.
[17:27] ---
Mistress Kate!
[17:34] ---
Emilico?
[17:40] ---
It is nearly complete.
[17:42] ---
This seems a bit excessive,
but it is certainly a fine view.
[17:46] ---
The veiled dolls are out in force.
[17:53] ---
Edward.
[17:56] ---
It's not often one sees
a debut on this scale.
[18:00] ---
Some even end with a
decision made in the debut hall.
[18:03] ---
Ed, this has your personality
written all over it.
[18:07] ---
This will be quite an enjoyable
debut for the latest candidates,
[18:11] ---
assuming any can enjoy it.
[18:13] ---
Nothing else matters as long
as this goes according to my plan.
[18:19] ---
As long as I entertain
those on the third floor
[18:22] ---
and get Lord Grandfather's attention...
[18:25] ---
You will ascend to the third floor?
[18:29] ---
Yet you already have plenty
of power on the second floor.
[18:33] ---
Upon arriving at Lord Grandfather's wing,
I found three different floors,
[18:38] ---
each with its own ranking.
[18:41] ---
I must rise straight to the top.
[18:44] ---
Those eminent third-floor figures
don't even send out their faces.
[18:47] ---
It's time they open a spot for me.
[18:50] ---
You must not speak lightly of such things.
[18:53] ---
Don't be frightened, Jer.
[18:56] ---
I merely wish to avoid
unnecessary concerns.
[18:58] ---
Let us proceed with caution.
[19:01] ---
After all, we are the only
three left from our debut.
[19:06] ---
Should we not pay
attention to the candidates?
[19:09] ---
Here are the details on all five pairs.
[19:13] ---
I've already seen this.
[19:15] ---
On what will you base your decision?
[19:18] ---
Information on the soot
and refuse from their rooms
[19:20] ---
and the Star Bearers' reports.
[19:22] ---
I've decided all of the roles.
[19:25] ---
His potential may very well blossom.
[19:29] ---
There are outstanding candidates, too.
[19:31] ---
I took that into account
in balancing the game.
[19:34] ---
And this is the one who will fail.
[19:37] ---
Such limited soot emission
and a meager appetite.
[19:42] ---
And this one? I'm not sure.
[19:45] ---
Seeing this again, they seem so ordinary,
[19:48] ---
yet the information is flawless.
[19:50] ---
It's as if they know
they're being watched.
[19:54] ---
Is something the matter, Edward?
[19:55] ---
No, it's nothing important.
[19:59] ---
Aren't you looking forward to the drama?
[20:01] ---
You already know the answer, Allie.
[20:05] ---
The answer is no.
[20:07] ---
Nothing must disturb
the plans for my perfect world.
[20:12] ---
Indeed.
[20:14] ---
Once again, we simply do
what we always do.
[20:17] ---
Edward, you take point,
and Allie and I provide support.
[20:21] ---
Still, you get to be the face interacting
with those kids on the big stage.
[20:26] ---
I envy you, Ed.
[20:28] ---
I'd like Lady Aileen and Lord Gerald to
keep the third-floor lords entertained.
[20:33] ---
Spare me your sarcasm.
[20:54] ---
What a truly inane message.
[20:58] ---
Barring the path to this plaza
merely spoils the landscape.
[21:06] ---
Those dolls I'd taken for dullards--
[21:09] ---
they keep solving the
clever puzzles I put in their path.
[21:55] ---
However, Edward has them
all in the palm of his hand!
[22:03] ---
What a beautiful melody.

[00:08] ---
Faces will lose their
sense of self in due time,
[00:11] ---
becoming but faithful
servants of their shadows.
[00:15] ---
Then shall shadow and face
unite as a complete being.
[00:21] ---
In that sense, it calls into question
the methods of Edward's debut.
[00:27] ---
It's a mistake to have shadows
be friendly with their face.
[00:32] ---
Faces are meant to be taken.
[00:35] ---
Having faces rescue their masters
creates an emotional bond
[00:39] ---
and encourages them
to think for themselves.
[00:43] ---
Is it not important to promote loyalty?
[00:47] ---
However, a debut that could
cause them all to fail is quite a risk.
[00:53] ---
Quite the experiment.
[00:54] ---
Some are showing signs
of new powers blossoming.
[00:57] ---
In that respect,
Sophie looks favorably upon Edward.
[01:01] ---
Do you wish to mass-produce Star Bearers?
[01:04] ---
No good will come of having
them ponder matters to no avail.
[01:07] ---
This means there are yet many
possibilities here in Shadows House.
[01:12] ---
What an interesting debut.
[01:16] ---
Edward's methodology is revolutionary.
[01:19] ---
It will be difficult
for him to judge swiftly.
[01:22] ---
Bah! That Edward makes one's blood boil.
[01:26] ---
He's rolled out quite
the lavish performance.
[01:28] ---
Is he trying to steal Ryan's thunder?
[01:31] ---
No, no.
[01:33] ---
However...
[01:34] ---
that was uncalled for.
[01:36] ---
The union of bodies is
this house's great secret.
[01:39] ---
It was foolish to do so
where the candidates might see.
[01:43] ---
Ed, you have sunk too far
into your own world.
[01:47] ---
Aileen!
[01:49] ---
Yes, ma'am.
[01:53] ---
What becomes of these five pairs
upon the debut's conclusion
[01:59] ---
shall be a sight to see.
[03:32] ---
"A Bird Cage and Flowers"
[03:32] ---
Oh, how wonderful it feels
to have clean clothes once more.
[03:37] ---
That soot remover is superb!
[03:39] ---
There would be no need to change
three times a day with one of those!
[03:44] ---
Then there's this map.
This debut is so much fun!
[03:47] ---
Well, Shaun?
[03:49] ---
Can we get through those bars?
[03:51] ---
I figured it out.
[03:53] ---
They're locked by this
bar sunk into the ground.
[03:56] ---
They should turn if we lift it.
[03:59] ---
But there's also a bar on the other side.
Both have to be lifted at the same time.
[04:05] ---
We can't move the bars
without someone on the other side?
[04:08] ---
There's nothing we can do.
We'll have to take a detour.
[04:12] ---
We can check on Mistress Kate on the way.
[04:15] ---
No, John's not going to meet with her.
[04:17] ---
He promised not to
until he passed this test.
[04:20] ---
Then we won't--
[04:21] ---
But John would save her if she asked!
[04:30] ---
You're the last person I wanted to see.
[04:33] ---
Huh?
[04:38] ---
Oh, I get it.
[04:41] ---
Shaun, you want to get to this side.
[04:44] ---
Get down on your knees
and beg. Then I'll help you.
[04:47] ---
If you came from that direction,
you want to get to this side.
[04:52] ---
No. I've already saved Master Patrick.
[04:55] ---
I'm just killing time
with a little stroll.
[04:58] ---
Is that Patrick's face?
[04:59] ---
Master John?!
[05:01] ---
That's right. I've figured out more
of the labyrinth than you, Ricky.
[05:06] ---
I even know where Master Patrick is.
[05:08] ---
All your bluster was in vain.
[05:10] ---
Considering where you are right now,
you haven't yet saved him.
[05:17] ---
Shaun, would you mind answering this?
[05:19] ---
Yes?
[05:20] ---
Doesn't having your master here
give you an unfair advantage?
[05:24] ---
John wants to learn about
the relations between dolls.
[05:27] ---
So please proceed as if John weren't here.
[05:30] ---
But Ricky would obey you
if you told him to.
[05:36] ---
What a unique shadow master.
[05:39] ---
In any case, I've got the advantage.
[05:42] ---
We still have plenty of time,
even with a detour.
[05:45] ---
I already know most of the paths.
[05:47] ---
You, however, have a long way to go
before you'll see Master Patrick.
[05:52] ---
Your path will take you
about twice around the garden.
[05:56] ---
I'll tell you what.
[05:57] ---
If you apologize for hitting me,
I'll lend you a hand.
[06:02] ---
One point for Shaun.
[06:05] ---
Not so fast.
[06:07] ---
From what you said,
can I assume Master Patrick is here?
[06:10] ---
I really had no idea.
[06:13] ---
I must thank you for
your loose-lipped leak.
[06:17] ---
One point for Ricky.
[06:20] ---
I'm done wasting time here.
[06:23] ---
Let's go, Master.
[06:24] ---
W-Wait! I'll apologize!
[06:29] ---
Hitting you was wrong.
[06:31] ---
That was utterly insincere, but drawing
this out will only waste more time.
[06:36] ---
Emilico would probably help him,
no questions asked.
[06:41] ---
All right, let's open the gate.
[06:43] ---
What? But it's still a two-to-two tie.
[06:47] ---
Enough with that!
[06:48] ---
And when did we each score another point?!
[06:52] ---
Okay, we'll lift the bars together.
[06:58] ---
Aren't those the shears Lou chose?
[07:00] ---
Ricky, what have you done to her?
[07:04] ---
Lou gave them to me.
[07:07] ---
I swear upon Master Patrick
that I'm not lying.
[07:10] ---
Why would Lou give you her shears?
[07:13] ---
You've tried to trick people into
doing your bidding the entire time.
[07:17] ---
I can't trust you.
[07:20] ---
Wait! Answer my question!
[07:22] ---
You won't believe me no matter what I say.
[07:25] ---
That's the same as
insulting Master Patrick!
[07:34] ---
Mistress Louise has arrived!
[07:37] ---
To think we'd be greeted
so grandly at the exit!
[07:40] ---
How fine it feels to come in first.
[07:44] ---
There's Barbie.
[07:51] ---
Louise made it out. That means...
[07:54] ---
Ricky was telling the truth.
[08:01] ---
Oh, you're a sight for sore eyes, Lou.
Let's see that face.
[08:06] ---
A living doll would never
lay hands on a shadow master.
[08:10] ---
I'm not some fool who'd let a moment
of passion disgrace Master Patrick.
[08:16] ---
Ricky.
[08:21] ---
Here.
[08:24] ---
Mistress Louise's orders?
[08:25] ---
No, it has nothing to do
with Mistress Louise.
[08:29] ---
It's a secret.
[08:31] ---
I wanted you to have them.
[08:38] ---
I've never done such a thing before.
It feels strange.
[08:42] ---
But I had fun while I was with you.
[08:45] ---
I want you and Master Patrick
[08:48] ---
to make it past the debut.
[08:54] ---
Ricky!
[08:55] ---
I owe you an apology.
I'm sorry for doubting you!
[08:59] ---
Come back!
[09:03] ---
You will abandon this
path out of pride, Ricky?
[09:08] ---
The path you've chosen
doesn't lead to the finish line.
[09:12] ---
It's all over for you.
[09:21] ---
That half-wit was right.
I've no chance if I take this detour.
[09:25] ---
Damn it.
[09:31] ---
Ricky came back.
[09:35] ---
Huh?!
[09:36] ---
What the...?!
[09:42] ---
Boulder!
[09:45] ---
Lift the bar on your side!
[09:46] ---
I'd like to, but then
I'd be the one in danger!
[09:50] ---
Hang on! I'll think of something.
[09:54] ---
Take care of Master Patrick.
[09:57] ---
He's quite sensitive.
I fear for him once I'm gone.
[10:03] ---
Who knows what will
happen if he fails the debut.
[10:06] ---
But if he does survive this...
[10:09] ---
Master John! Shaun! Please help him!
[10:18] ---
Master John!
[10:19] ---
This body has a mind of its own.
[10:22] ---
This can't be happening! Master John!
[10:24] ---
Master John!
[10:38] ---
Nice face, Ricky. That's three points!
[10:42] ---
What just happened?
[10:46] ---
How very marvelous.
[10:48] ---
Such a great volume of soot.
If only I could get a closer look.
[10:53] ---
Oh, John! So very irresistible!
[10:55] ---
I wonder what he tastes like.
[10:57] ---
Hey, Sophie. You're so excited,
your face is showing.
[11:01] ---
Her face is showing?
[11:03] ---
So it seems.
[11:08] ---
To liven up the moment is a fine thing.
[11:11] ---
So they say.
[11:13] ---
Sophie, you utterly change when
it comes to soot. It's frightening.
[11:22] ---
At last, the end of the debut draws near.
[11:26] ---
Hey, why are these three going in circles?
[11:30] ---
John went to the other side,
and now he must get back.
[11:34] ---
But he can't rejoin Shaun
unless Ricky goes back.
[11:38] ---
A heroic effort wasted by a feeble fool.
[11:41] ---
And Rum...
[11:43] ---
She's advancing after some confusion.
[11:46] ---
That is the tunnel Ricky did not take.
[11:49] ---
Did Sunshine put some
funny ideas in her head?
[11:52] ---
She's become positively heroic.
[11:54] ---
John and Shaun are heading for the exit.
[11:57] ---
And Ricky and Rum are
reuniting with their masters.
[12:01] ---
The living dolls are growing up
by overcoming many difficulties.
[12:06] ---
He's so pleased, he's chatting up a storm.
But can he open the crate?
[12:10] ---
What does it matter? It's adorable.
[12:13] ---
He has noticed something.
[12:16] ---
The various confines Edward
designed all have soot as their key.
[12:21] ---
Ricky has found a mold for
making a key from hardened soot.
[12:26] ---
John was also in a crate,
but he used his power to destroy it.
[12:30] ---
It seems Ricky has learned by seeing
Louise's rescue and John's wondrous power.
[12:35] ---
Truly magnificent.
[12:38] ---
Well, he's soundly cleared that hurdle.
[12:41] ---
The shadows gain trust toward their faces
and praise them for their efforts.
[12:46] ---
Thus their bond deepens.
[12:50] ---
Shirley has yet to emit any soot.
[12:53] ---
This may prove difficult.
[12:59] ---
What's this? Is she channeling Sunshine?
[13:02] ---
She better be careful.
The sap will splatter all over.
[13:05] ---
This is too scary to watch.
[13:07] ---
Doesn't she know it causes a burning rash?
[13:10] ---
Like Kate's cage, the upper area
comes loose if exposed to soot.
[13:14] ---
The rash-causing flowers
were meant to fall on her.
[13:17] ---
She found a workaround.
[13:19] ---
Rum seemed quite wishy-washy,
but she is unexpectedly resolute.
[13:23] ---
It's an act of loyalty toward Shirley.
[13:35] ---
What's this? Is Shirley speaking?
[13:39] ---
An emotional reunion.
How unfortunate we cannot hear them.
[13:43] ---
The worst candidates staged a comeback.
[13:45] ---
Patrick and Ricky took a detour,
[13:48] ---
but at this rate,
they'll likely make it in time.
[13:50] ---
The grand finale to
a most beauteous debut.
[13:55] ---
They better not all make it
merrily holding hands!
[13:58] ---
Ryan couldn't stomach
such an imbecilic ending!
[14:01] ---
Well, Gerald?!
[14:02] ---
Aileen?!
[14:04] ---
Shadows House is not so kind as
to keep the incompetent around.
[14:08] ---
The fact is that at every debut,
there have been useless individuals.
[14:12] ---
Edward has failed in his task
if he cannot find them.
[14:16] ---
Now, now, Ryan. It is not over yet, is it?
[14:20] ---
They are still in play.
[14:22] ---
The most pitiful of all.
[14:26] ---
Mistress Kate!
[14:29] ---
Mistress Kate.
[14:30] ---
It is you.
[14:34] ---
No, I mustn't cry yet.
[14:37] ---
I'm so glad you're safe.
[14:39] ---
I was so worried.
I couldn't wait to see you again.
[14:42] ---
Forgive me. I imagine this made you
far more anxious than I was.
[14:47] ---
No, but it would've
been nice to have a book.
[14:50] ---
It was so dull here.
[14:52] ---
But you must have had
a terrible time getting here.
[14:56] ---
That's right! Lots and
lots of stuff happened!
[15:01] ---
Please do tell.
[15:02] ---
We were told to proceed
through the garden alone.
[15:06] ---
It must've been so lonely.
[15:07] ---
I saw lots of strange puzzles and traps.
[15:10] ---
We would've had fun strolling
through it together.
[15:13] ---
Kate wishes she could have.
[15:15] ---
I met other masters and dolls,
and together we solved some mysteries!
[15:20] ---
Really?
[15:21] ---
John came across Kate. He is an odd one.
[15:24] ---
I saw him, too. He was a lot of fun.
[15:28] ---
Would you like an orange?
[15:30] ---
Maybe later.
[15:31] ---
Oh, what a wonderful apron.
[15:33] ---
Hurray! I made it
hoping that you'd like it!
[15:38] ---
Seeing you look like you
always do is reassuring.
[15:41] ---
This test has shown me that all the dolls
hold their masters dear, just as I do.
[15:47] ---
That's right.
[15:48] ---
And I defeated a bunch of scorches!
[15:50] ---
You had to do such a thing? Are you hurt?
[15:53] ---
I'm fine!
[15:54] ---
What did you think about while you waited?
[15:57] ---
Giving you that bread you love so much.
[16:04] ---
Let's continue this later over
a cup of tea in Kate's room.
[16:08] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[16:10] ---
Kate has something to talk to you about.
[16:14] ---
There's that bell again.
[16:17] ---
Someone must have passed.
[16:19] ---
You can just see the exit from here.
[16:21] ---
It's not clear who,
but someone is being greeted.
[16:25] ---
Now about how Kate ended up in here.
[16:29] ---
The controls for this cage are on
the other side of the thorn trees.
[16:34] ---
Edward said,
"It is necessary for the debut."
[16:38] ---
There was no choice but to get in.
[16:40] ---
As he operated the controls,
[16:43] ---
the crane started to move
[16:44] ---
until it hung on the other side.
[16:47] ---
The cage itself is the problem.
[16:49] ---
As soot enters the ceiling vent,
the chains by which it's hung break.
[16:54] ---
It's only hanging by five chains now.
[16:57] ---
Oh, no! We must do something quick!
[16:59] ---
How do I get over there?
[17:02] ---
There is a path behind the cage.
[17:05] ---
But the entrance is locked.
[17:08] ---
Edward said the key will be
available at the sootglass plaza.
[17:14] ---
The keys! He must mean those!
[17:18] ---
You don't have them?
[17:21] ---
There was but one chance.
[17:23] ---
Out of my great benevolence,
I gave you one chance of passing.
[17:28] ---
You had to choose the keys at the start.
[17:31] ---
You were doomed to fail the moment
you left the sootglass plaza.
[17:37] ---
Emilico, what are you doing?
[17:39] ---
I can reach the controls
through these thorn trees, right?
[17:43] ---
Well... yes.
[17:45] ---
That's true, but...
[17:47] ---
Then if I can cut through here,
I can save you!
[17:51] ---
You never give up, do you, Emilico?
[17:54] ---
Kate likes that about you.
[17:58] ---
Mistress Kate!
[18:00] ---
I better hurry!
[18:02] ---
But...
[18:07] ---
...there's no time.
[18:09] ---
Yes! I knew Emilico wouldn't give up.
[18:12] ---
How marvelous!
[18:14] ---
Show the third-floor masters how
you struggle in vain until the very end!
[18:20] ---
Mistress Kate!
[18:21] ---
Only two chains left!
[18:25] ---
Emilico is trying her hardest, but I...
[18:30] ---
Emilico.
[18:31] ---
Someone's coming.
[18:38] ---
Ricky.
[18:40] ---
Patrick? Why now?
[18:43] ---
Those are the shears
that Lou chose, aren't they?
[18:47] ---
It's a long story.
[18:49] ---
Did he steal them from Louise?
I wouldn't be surprised.
[18:52] ---
He must think that eliminating rivals
gives him an edge.
[18:56] ---
I knew we couldn't trust the others pairs.
[18:59] ---
What a relief!
[19:01] ---
That bell or the one before it
must've been for Lou!
[19:05] ---
Lou gave you the shears to thank you
for helping her, didn't she?
[19:15] ---
Mistress Kate! Are you all right?!
[19:18] ---
Y-Yes, but...
[19:20] ---
I'm afraid I can't talk right now.
There's something I must do!
[19:32] ---
Give Emilico the shears.
[19:36] ---
There is a debt to pay.
[19:41] ---
Thank you!
[19:43] ---
I will save Mistress Kate!
[19:47] ---
Shaun, Rum, Ricky, and Lou
are all supporting our efforts!
[19:53] ---
But it didn't start out like that.
[19:57] ---
They changed because of you.
[19:59] ---
I was a fool.
[20:01] ---
From the very start,
I was making enemies, not friends.
[20:05] ---
Emilico! It will take too long
to cut it all down.
[20:09] ---
Just cut enough to get through.
Careful you don't get hurt!
[20:12] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[20:17] ---
Mistress Kate!
I've reached the crane's controls.
[20:21] ---
Well done! Do you know how to use it?
[20:23] ---
Oh, no! I need a key here, too!
[20:26] ---
But...
[20:29] ---
Oh, no! The soot is...!
[20:33] ---
It's no use.
[20:35] ---
The soot won't stop.
[20:37] ---
At any moment, I'll be...
[20:39] ---
I'm scared.
[20:41] ---
I'm scared!
[20:43] ---
I'm so scared!
[20:45] ---
I won't give up!
[20:51] ---
I'll save you no matter what!
[20:54] ---
Emilico!
[21:09] ---
Mistress Kate!
[21:19] ---
Mistress Kate, give me your hand!
[21:34] ---
Mia once told me that
she was born brilliant, but...
[21:39] ---
...in my case, it seems I was
born with a sturdy body!
[21:52] ---
No ash, no, just shadow
[21:56] ---
A no- "I" body, like a dolly
[22:00] ---
I'm hollow, where'd I go?
[22:04] ---
Nobody knows
[22:07] ---
A murky "I" with black-hole eyes
[22:12] ---
A mimic, oh my! I'm in disguise?
[22:15] ---
"Thank you"? Thank who?
[22:18] ---
Every answer is true
[22:21] ---
If I am no one
[22:25] ---
And I can do nothing
[22:29] ---
Is it a waste to keep living?
[22:32] ---
Is it wrong to go on?
[22:36] ---
What's missing here is me, me, me
[22:41] ---
Without a self
[22:43] ---
Swept away before anyone see, see, sees
[22:48] ---
Like dust from the shelf
[22:51] ---
Neither happy nor sad
[22:55] ---
Don't feel good or bad
[22:58] ---
Not up to snuff
[23:00] ---
I can't even bluff
[23:06] ---
Would you believe this stuff?
[23:17] ---
How very thrilling.
[23:18] ---
It is getting quite interesting.
[23:21] ---
Interesting?
[23:22] ---
It's just made them
fret over trivial matters.
[23:25] ---
Ryan was looking forward
to their spectacular deaths!
[23:28] ---
Nevertheless...
[23:30] ---
Is this not the end?
[23:33] ---
And their end as well?
[23:42] ---

[01:36] ---
"The Final Pair"
[01:36] ---
Mistress Kate!
[01:43] ---
Give me your hand!
[01:46] ---
It seems I was born with a sturdy body!
[01:53] ---
She cleared a large area of thorn trees
so we'd have somewhere to land,
[01:58] ---
then placed her pushcart full of
flowers and leaves there as a cushion.
[02:02] ---
Did she plan this from the start in case
she couldn't operate the crane?
[02:07] ---
Is there anything she doesn't think of?
[02:12] ---
Emilico, you're bleeding!
[02:17] ---
I've scratched my face!
[02:20] ---
Forgive me, Mistress Kate!
[02:22] ---
There's a river nearby.
Let's go wash it and get you patched up.
[02:34] ---
It's just a little cut on your head.
It's not very deep.
[02:37] ---
I really am a sturdy doll!
[02:41] ---
But what about you,
Mistress Kate? You're not hurt?
[02:44] ---
Kate is just fine.
[02:46] ---
I'm so glad! We're both safe now,
and we can still pass the test!
[02:56] ---
Only ten minutes left.
[03:00] ---
They still have a long road ahead.
[03:05] ---
The bleeding stopped.
[03:06] ---
Then let's go!
[03:15] ---
Mistress Kate?
[03:20] ---
Don't tell me it's already too late.
[03:24] ---
Mistress Kate...
[03:26] ---
You've been true to who you are.
[03:29] ---
It's apparent from the way Patrick acted.
[03:33] ---
That's all Kate needs to be content.
[03:37] ---
It's over!
[03:39] ---
Not everything went as planned,
[03:42] ---
but I succeeded in the end.
[03:47] ---
This debut marks a major step for me.
[03:53] ---
I had that incident in the hall.
[03:55] ---
And the living dolls were
tougher than I thought.
[03:58] ---
I did foresee the
blossoming of John's power.
[04:01] ---
Ricky was nearly flattened,
[04:04] ---
but that, too, was a needless concern.
[04:09] ---
A bit hasty, perhaps?
[04:12] ---
The sootglass has not run out yet.
[04:16] ---
It would take me over ten minutes
from that point, and I know the way!
[04:20] ---
It's physically impossible
no matter how fast they run!
[04:23] ---
The writing is on the wall.
[04:25] ---
You kids need but do as I say.
[04:29] ---
Now keep your mouths shut!
[04:31] ---
Then do as you please.
[04:42] ---
What's that sound?
[04:47] ---
"Check the upper level"?
[04:50] ---
What's Allie talking about?
[04:53] ---
It's going as planned.
It's going as planned!
[04:57] ---
Come what may,
it must all fall into place.
[05:02] ---
I have the whole ending planned!
[05:05] ---
And this one? I'm not sure.
[05:09] ---
Seeing this again, they seem so ordinary,
yet the information is flawless.
[05:13] ---
It's as if they know
they're being watched.
[05:17] ---
Don't tell me...
[05:20] ---
What did I overlook?!
[05:37] ---
Stopping by the river was a good idea!
[05:40] ---
I wonder where this river
comes from and where it goes.
[05:44] ---
We're on a hill, so perhaps it connects
to a waterway that supplies the house.
[05:50] ---
It's just like you thought!
[05:53] ---
Yes, but converting the pushcart into
a boat was a fabulous idea, Emilico!
[05:59] ---
Very impressive.
[06:00] ---
You really do never give up.
[06:04] ---
But this wouldn't have worked
without you, Mistress Kate!
[06:08] ---
Careful! There's a sharp turn.
[06:15] ---
Kate! She can...
[06:18] ---
She can control soot!
Why has she not done so till now?
[06:22] ---
Did her power just awaken?
[06:23] ---
No! She was hiding it.
[06:25] ---
She was always capable of it.
[06:28] ---
Damn it! Why didn't I notice?
[06:31] ---
Her clothes!
[06:32] ---
Your clothes didn't get dirty.
[06:35] ---
You were so anxious
and emitting lots of soot,
[06:38] ---
but you controlled it
so you wouldn't get dirty.
[06:42] ---
You never gave up, Mistress Kate,
so there was no way I would, either!
[06:47] ---
You're always carefully
watching Kate, aren't you?
[06:56] ---
This is dangerous! Let's get off!
[06:58] ---
Stay the course!
[07:02] ---
Emilico, do you know why I named you that?
[07:06] ---
It's true that living dolls are usually
given names that resemble their master's.
[07:12] ---
Shadows aren't supposed to care
what their living dolls are named.
[07:19] ---
But I wanted you to be a unique
individual separate from Kate.
[07:24] ---
So, I gave you a unique name.
[07:27] ---
Emilico, there's so much I wish
to tell you once the debut is over.
[07:32] ---
I'll tell you all my secrets.
[07:38] ---
Jump out!
[08:00] ---
Mistress Kate has arrived!
[08:05] ---
Apologies. Kate's not very strong.
[08:07] ---
I felt so happy cradled in your arms!
[08:15] ---
This way, please.
[08:16] ---
The others who passed
have already filed into the hall.
[08:20] ---
You were the last to arrive.
[08:26] ---
If she could control soot
before the debut test,
[08:31] ---
why did she hide it?
[08:32] ---
What are you up to, Kate?
[08:42] ---
Why is Master Ryan clapping?
[08:45] ---
Oh...
[08:47] ---
Did it finally happen?
[09:05] ---
Rum?
[09:08] ---
Rum.
[09:09] ---
Mistress Shirley! You remembered my name.
[09:14] ---
Forgive me for choosing my own name.
[09:21] ---
The name Rum is all right with you?
[09:24] ---
I'm so glad.
[09:27] ---
I thought we'd make it to the exit.
[09:29] ---
I was sure there was time.
[09:32] ---
But Mistress Shirley started slowing down.
[09:37] ---
Though we had no hope
of making it in time,
[09:40] ---
I continued to hold her hand.
[09:44] ---
And her gentle voice saying my name
remained ever in my mind.
[09:51] ---
Happiness was right before me
if only I had opened my heart sooner.
[09:57] ---
I would have been able to
kiss her good night now.
[10:36] ---
I finally became your face, Mistress Kate!
[10:39] ---
When living dolls wear a portrait,
[10:41] ---
they refrain from speaking and
express only their master's emotions.
[10:45] ---
Kate, you are free to mingle
with the other shadows.
[10:48] ---
However, you must not speak of
your soot powers with them.
[10:53] ---
That is between the Star Bearers and
those in which such power has awakened.
[10:58] ---
Understood.
[11:00] ---
Any questions?
[11:02] ---
No. One need but obey the rules.
[11:05] ---
How infuriating!
[11:07] ---
Let's go.
[11:14] ---
Congratulations to Kate,
the final candidate to pass.
[11:26] ---
Everyone from the
children's wing is gathered here.
[11:31] ---
Would you like a cup?
[11:33] ---
Thank you.
[11:34] ---
What is it? It's so dark.
[11:37] ---
It's a drink served only
to shadows with faces,
[11:40] ---
in other words,
those who are deemed adults.
[11:44] ---
It's so bitter!
[11:46] ---
Once you get used to it,
you won't be able to get enough.
[11:51] ---
Drink, and your worries shall vanish.
[11:55] ---
It's probably a drink called coffee.
It was mentioned in a book.
[11:58] ---
But Kate doesn't care for it.
She prefers tea.
[12:03] ---
It seems such a waste. Allow me!
[12:05] ---
But you didn't seem
to care for it, either.
[12:08] ---
It's so bitter!
[12:11] ---
Kate, congratulations!
[12:17] ---
I am Maryrose! Our faces
are already well acquainted.
[12:23] ---
Rosemary's shadow master!
[12:27] ---
O most beauteous Kate,
our faces are on the same team,
[12:31] ---
so you shall become
quite close to Maryrose.
[12:36] ---
Should you have any questions,
let Maryrose guide you!
[12:39] ---
Now be at ease.
It was a pleasure meeting you!
[12:42] ---
She's a lady, right?
It's just, she seems so gallant.
[12:47] ---
Maryrose!
[12:48] ---
Don't spoil the children.
[12:51] ---
Sarah.
[12:52] ---
Congratulations, Kate. Well done.
[12:55] ---
Sarah thought you a failure, but even
the lowest-ranked shadow passed.
[13:00] ---
One gets shivers up the spine
with each visit here.
[13:03] ---
For it's not every day one gets
to visit Lord Grandfather's wing.
[13:07] ---
But there will come a day when
Sarah shall be summoned here.
[13:12] ---
Of course, this is but the first floor.
[13:14] ---
It may seem strange after
entering from the garden,
[13:17] ---
but this is the ground level.
[13:19] ---
As the lowest ranked,
you must work hard to move up.
[13:23] ---
For starters, you may use Louise
as an excellent example.
[13:27] ---
Louise is at the top.
[13:31] ---
Here are the four pairs
that have grown up today.
[13:35] ---
Please give a hand to the newest
members of the children's wing.
[13:39] ---
Congratulations! Well done!
[13:43] ---
Four pairs?
[13:45] ---
Oh...
[13:47] ---
Emilico, you must be sad.
[13:50] ---
Four of five pairs passed this time,
a most impressive feat.
[13:54] ---
And the single incompetent pair
that failed will be...
[14:00] ---
...discarded!
[14:07] ---
Oh, what a joy to bask in this glory.
[14:09] ---
Louise is so beautiful that anyone
would want to be like her.
[14:14] ---
How can they be so delighted
in the failure of their own kind?
[14:18] ---
What happens to shadows who fail?
[14:21] ---
How should Patrick even feel, Ricky?
[14:27] ---
No, one must learn on one's own.
Be confident, Patrick!
[14:31] ---
So it was Rum.
[14:32] ---
She seemed to be doing well,
but she'll be discarded?
[14:35] ---
No! One cannot question
Shadows House's rules.
[14:38] ---
Isn't that right, Shaun?
[14:42] ---
Let us adjourn to the garden!
It is time to be received in audience.
[15:04] ---
Kate.
[15:07] ---
Now for an encounter
you shall never forget.
[15:09] ---
Presenting the noblest of personages.
[15:28] ---
Lord Grandfather waved to me!
[15:31] ---
Such a glorious sight!
[15:37] ---
So he's the root of all this evil.
[15:49] ---
That dark drink they gave us...
Don't tell me--!
[16:04] ---
Forgive my intrusion.
[16:07] ---
Let us see your faces.
[16:20] ---
Lord Grandfather...
[16:25] ---
...here are the results.
[16:26] ---
Louise receives passing marks for
facial compatibility and soot volume.
[16:31] ---
John's soot volume surpasses expectations,
[16:33] ---
but his personality
is ill-fit for his face.
[16:36] ---
Patrick is compatible with his face,
but his soot volume is poor.
[16:42] ---
As you saw, my lord, Shirley
had yet to acquire a personality--
[16:46] ---
a fundamental flaw.
[16:49] ---
I foresaw such outcomes based
on their pre-debut information.
[16:53] ---
The living doll, Rum,
is inadequate as a face.
[16:57] ---
It's believed that she never
gave her master a kiss good night.
[17:01] ---
Edward, let us test your knowledge.
[17:06] ---
What is a shadow, and what is its purpose?
[17:09] ---
A shadow is a form of morph, a parasitic
fairy skilled in mimicry and imitation.
[17:15] ---
We all once took this form.
[17:18] ---
Lord Grandfather devised the process
[17:20] ---
by which morphs acquire
personalities and become shadows.
[17:24] ---
In stage one, morphs
are shown living dolls
[17:27] ---
so they may recognize
and mimic the human form.
[17:30] ---
In stage two, a personality is acquired
by interacting with a living doll.
[17:35] ---
And in stage three, soot powers awaken
and unification takes place.
[17:40] ---
In short, a face is acquired by
taking over the doll's body,
[17:44] ---
creating a perfect being possessing soot
powers and transcending humankind.
[17:47] ---
But if the shadow fails to
acquire a personality in stage two,
[17:51] ---
we may infer that its
morph's life force was too weak.
[17:55] ---
Shirley certainly fits that pattern.
[17:57] ---
No wonder she withered on the vine.
[18:00] ---
But to perish like soot
in the wind was a first.
[18:04] ---
It was hilarious,
but one can't help but wonder.
[18:07] ---
Edward! Did you foresee that happening?
[18:11] ---
N-No, not like that!
[18:14] ---
I wished to entertain
you third-floor lords.
[18:17] ---
And I tried to save the
trouble of discarding her
[18:20] ---
by having her in the debut.
[18:22] ---
A slight error on my part led to Shirley
bonding with her doll during the debut,
[18:27] ---
and even though she was doomed to die,
her personality began to develop.
[18:32] ---
That is why these
unforeseen events occurred,
[18:35] ---
or so I believe.
[18:38] ---
Perhaps I went too far in staging
a shadow's death as some sort of show.
[18:43] ---
It is only natural that
the failures be culled.
[18:46] ---
We need but those who
prove useful to Lord Grandfather.
[18:50] ---
The manner in which the debut
was held is another concern.
[18:54] ---
It led the faces to fret
over trivial matters.
[18:57] ---
Faces with ideas of their own may
cast doubt upon Shadows House.
[19:02] ---
Of course, we can have them
drink Lord Grandfather's soot coffee
[19:06] ---
to alter their thinking.
[19:07] ---
That swiftly erases their memory,
[19:09] ---
filling them with
loyalty toward Grandfather.
[19:12] ---
But what of shadows influenced
by the doubts of their faces?
[19:17] ---
Grandfather's soot has
no effect on shadows.
[19:20] ---
Indeed, the greatest risk lies in shadows
being influenced by a doll's defiance.
[19:26] ---
But if we use the coffee to make
faces loyal to Lord Grandfather,
[19:30] ---
that will influence their shadows,
so you needn't be concerned.
[19:34] ---
I've had Shirley's living doll, Rum,
drink the coffee to reset her memory.
[19:39] ---
She'll be repurposed as a veiled doll.
[19:42] ---
I take great care that
malcontents do not take root in--
[19:46] ---
You think Ryan is worried
about such matters?!
[19:49] ---
No one would dare defy us!
[19:54] ---
Forgive me. I shall take
more care from now on.
[19:58] ---
Enough about that.
[20:00] ---
Now then, Kate, the lowest ranked of all,
was quite amusing.
[20:04] ---
Her power awakened,
a laudable achievement.
[20:10] ---
Edward.
[20:13] ---
By using this debut as a proving ground
for the Shadows family's potential,
[20:18] ---
you hastened a shadow's
awakening and more.
[20:22] ---
From this day forth, we place
the children's wing in your care.
[20:31] ---
Let us see how you do.
[20:35] ---
However!
[20:37] ---
As judge, you failed but one pair,
and they were already goners.
[20:41] ---
Such meager results will
never get you to the third floor.
[20:45] ---
Understood. I shall redouble my efforts.
[20:53] ---
It's a shame we won't rise
to the third floor just yet.
[20:57] ---
The debut was not to their satisfaction.
[21:01] ---
We must be of greater service
to Lord Grandfather.
[21:06] ---
Ryan! That arrogant buffoon had the
nerve to interrupt Lord Grandfather.
[21:11] ---
Why does Lord Grandfather
have such frivolous fools by his side?
[21:15] ---
I should be the one serving him.
[21:19] ---
Those malcontents...
[21:20] ---
Once I expose them,
Lord Grandfather will understand.
[21:25] ---
Those third-floor wastrels
are out to destroy him!
[21:30] ---
In that case, I must catch her in the act.
[21:33] ---
That malcontent...
[21:35] ---
Kate!
[21:40] ---
I've become quite efficient at cleaning.
[21:44] ---
All that's left is to clean the bathroom.
[21:48] ---
Wasn't it a shock what happened to Rum?
[21:52] ---
You were close, weren't you?
[21:54] ---
Yes.
[21:56] ---
That was unfortunate.
[21:57] ---
But living dolls no longer of service
to Shadows House must be discarded.
[22:02] ---
That's the way it is.
[22:18] ---
No ash, no, just shadow
[22:22] ---
A no- "I" body, like a dolly
[22:26] ---
I'm hollow, where'd I go?
[22:30] ---
Nobody knows
[22:33] ---
A murky "I" with black-hole eyes
[22:38] ---
A mimic, oh my! I'm in disguise?
[22:41] ---
"Thank you"? Thank who?
[22:44] ---
Every answer is true
[22:47] ---
If I am no one
[22:51] ---
And I can do nothing
[22:55] ---
Is it a waste to keep living?
[22:58] ---
Is it wrong to go on?
[23:02] ---
What's missing here is me, me, me
[23:07] ---
Without a self
[23:09] ---
Swept away before anyone see, see, sees
[23:14] ---
Like dust from the shelf
[23:17] ---
Neither happy nor sad
[23:21] ---
Don't feel good or bad
[23:24] ---
Not up to snuff
[23:26] ---
I can't even bluff
[23:32] ---
Would you believe this stuff?

[00:07] ---
Now, let's get to work
[00:11] ---
Emilico, when you first arrived...
[00:12] ---
Let's make ourselves useful
[00:15] ---
...you served the Shadows family
without question.
[00:16] ---
Don't fret over trivial matters
[00:19] ---
I couldn't trust you.
[00:22] ---
But it was because
of the coffee, wasn't it?
[00:22] ---
For the sake of the Shadows family
[00:26] ---
And you were made to
drink it again at the debut,
[00:31] ---
just when you were regaining
a sense of who you really are.
[00:38] ---
Emilico is the type that keeps everything.
[00:41] ---
There should be some
sort of a hint in her room.
[00:46] ---
I will get you back,
[00:50] ---
dearly beloved Emilico.
[02:24] ---
"The Dark Drink"
[02:24] ---
The Shadows Family's Teachings.
[02:26] ---
Before the debut,
shadows may not interact with others.
[02:30] ---
One must read this book
to learn the rules to live by.
[02:33] ---
Lord Grandfather is absolute.
[02:36] ---
Always have your living doll with you.
[02:39] ---
Cherish your contact
with your living doll.
[02:42] ---
Maintain your dignity as a master
[02:44] ---
while improving the
chemistry with your face."
[02:47] ---
It also provides information on the
house's wings and the Star Bearers.
[02:54] ---
As for soot, there's a section on how
it's emitted due to negative feelings
[02:59] ---
and how scorches spawn
if you don't clean, but that's about it.
[03:03] ---
There are other books,
[03:05] ---
but they explain how to
become a more cultured noble.
[03:09] ---
They don't teach children
what's really important.
[03:15] ---
The living doll's manual
emphasizes loyalty to Shadows House
[03:19] ---
and the importance of being a living doll.
[03:22] ---
It also covers scorches,
[03:25] ---
but it doesn't appear
Emilico read that far.
[03:31] ---
That should be hung up.
[03:38] ---
She always kept it in her pocket.
[03:42] ---
I feel sorry for you, too.
[03:44] ---
May you one day play with Emilico again.
[03:54] ---
Crash landing.
[04:09] ---
"'Don't Fret' Notebook"?
[04:11] ---
Emilico hid something from me?
[04:14] ---
Forgive me, but I must read this.
[04:17] ---
This notebook is for writing down
things I should not think about
[04:22] ---
so I can forget all about them.
[04:25] ---
Wouldn't that make her
remember them even more?
[04:28] ---
That's just like her.
[04:30] ---
"Great hall major cleaning
with the other living dolls.
[04:34] ---
Team members: Mia, Rosemary, Lou."
[04:38] ---
Should she really be thinking about that?
[04:41] ---
I might as well use this as a diary, too.
[04:44] ---
Now she's making excuses.
[04:46] ---
The phantom mayhem
that Emilico told me about
[04:49] ---
isn't mentioned in
"The Shadows Family's Teachings."
[04:54] ---
"Night watch duty."
[04:56] ---
So she had to do that as punishment?
[04:58] ---
I wish she would've told me the truth.
[05:01] ---
I didn't want Mistress Kate
to get angry, so I kept it a secret.
[05:05] ---
Hey! That makes me seem ill-tempered.
[05:33] ---
Soot sickness? Drink lots of water?
[05:37] ---
That's how Rosemary was cured?
[05:44] ---
You want me to drink this water?
[05:46] ---
That's right. You'll listen to
what Kate wants, won't you?
[05:50] ---
Of course.
[06:00] ---
Based on her notebook,
[06:02] ---
soot sickness seems to be
a sort of mental derangement.
[06:05] ---
But those who drink the coffee
fall into a state of insane loyalty.
[06:10] ---
The symptoms may differ slightly,
but they are both forms of insanity.
[06:16] ---
That coffee was most
likely doctored with soot.
[06:23] ---
Um, I don't think I can drink any more.
[06:30] ---
Keep drinking.
[06:33] ---
Why hide the truth about
soot from us younger shadows?
[06:38] ---
Is it because if we knew
about soot sickness
[06:41] ---
and noticed how our dolls change
[06:43] ---
after drinking the coffee,
[06:45] ---
we'd try to cure them?
[06:56] ---
Emilico.
[06:58] ---
How do you feel about
what happened to Rum?
[07:03] ---
Why are you asking me that now?
[07:08] ---
Drink.
[07:09] ---
Y-Yes, ma'am.
[07:14] ---
I don't want you to forget.
[07:16] ---
Emilico, you had regained
your sense of self.
[07:28] ---
Emilico.
[07:32] ---
Forgive me!
[07:50] ---
That's enough!
[07:54] ---
You don't have to drink any more!
[07:56] ---
You must forgive, Kate!
That must've been difficult!
[07:59] ---
It's not that.
[08:02] ---
I don't understand.
[08:04] ---
I remember.
[08:06] ---
I remember what
happened in the debut hall.
[08:11] ---
I can't believe it, and I'm so very sad.
[08:16] ---
But no matter how much
I think about that day,
[08:20] ---
the only feelings that
come to me are those of joy.
[08:25] ---
How could I feel joy
when Rum's no longer here?
[08:28] ---
She tried so very hard.
[08:32] ---
It's...
[08:35] ---
...too much to bear!
[08:46] ---
Feel better now?
[08:48] ---
Yes, ma'am.
[08:51] ---
You should rest.
[08:55] ---
Listen, Emilico.
[08:57] ---
Kate is going to tell you
something just between us.
[09:06] ---
Such a tedious task.
[09:08] ---
We must all take turns.
[09:09] ---
And is it not a delight to portray
fine nobles beloved by the people?
[09:19] ---
The soot train!
[09:20] ---
Visitors from the Shadows family!
[09:23] ---
I trust the offerings are prepared?
[09:25] ---
Why, you could cut this air with a knife.
[09:29] ---
Though it's not as thick
as Grandfather's soot.
[09:32] ---
Breathing the soot from
the soot coal each day
[09:35] ---
prevents normal thinking,
making the villagers easy to manipulate.
[09:43] ---
We have plenty of soot coal for you.
Make good use of it.
[09:47] ---
Thank you.
We so eagerly awaited this gift.
[09:51] ---
Let's get to it.
[09:53] ---
Yes, lord. This way, if you please.
[10:10] ---
Come now. No need to be so nervous.
[10:13] ---
What a fine complexion.
[10:16] ---
Let us choose more girls this time.
[10:25] ---
This time, the prestigious
assignments go to these three.
[10:29] ---
This is the ceremony
for entering our manor.
[10:32] ---
Now,
[10:34] ---
drink.
[10:46] ---
A little bitter, is it not?
[10:48] ---
Congratulations.
The Shadows family welcomes you.
[10:52] ---
You are the pride of your families.
[11:00] ---
How wonderful that
your daughter was chosen.
[11:03] ---
Yes, she'll live a life of privilege,
working at the manor.
[11:08] ---
What would we do without the manor?
[11:23] ---
The joyous birth of some
new shadows draws near!
[11:27] ---
May you become fine, young living dolls.
[11:33] ---
There are several villages
surrounding the manor.
[11:36] ---
You were born in one of them,
[11:38] ---
but your memory was erased before
you were brought to Shadows House.
[11:43] ---
Emilico, you're human.
[11:47] ---
Shadows House has wronged us.
[11:50] ---
For both shadows and living dolls,
this place is a prison.
[11:55] ---
It must be bewildering.
[12:00] ---
Umm... May I borrow a mirror?
[12:05] ---
I always wanted to see a human!
[12:08] ---
So this is what they look like?
They look just like a living doll!
[12:11] ---
No, you weren't listening.
There's no such thing as a living doll.
[12:16] ---
Oh, right!
[12:20] ---
It's all so confusing, but...
[12:23] ---
I believe you, Mistress Kate!
[12:27] ---
If we're all human, I'd like to help
everyone return to their villages!
[13:02] ---
Emilico, a word, please.
[13:13] ---
Emilico?
[13:18] ---
It was before the debut.
[13:22] ---
John saw a living doll go tumbling
down while gazing out the window.
[13:26] ---
Wanting to see more,
John snuck outside without Shaun noticing.
[13:34] ---
Emilico, you tried to protect
that which you treasure.
[13:37] ---
That is progress.
[13:39] ---
It's...
[13:41] ---
...difficult to explain,
[13:42] ---
but John fell for Kate at that moment.
[13:48] ---
Please come to John's room
if you'd consider getting engaged to him.
[13:59] ---
You came!
[14:01] ---
So you agree to get engaged--
[14:02] ---
Emilico is gone!
[14:04] ---
Huh?
[14:05] ---
Kate freed her from their brainwashing.
[14:08] ---
Brainwashing?
[14:09] ---
Yes. John, please listen.
[14:12] ---
Emilico and the other
living dolls are human.
[14:16] ---
They were brainwashed by Shadows House.
[14:19] ---
Wh-What are you talking about, Kate?
[14:21] ---
Living dolls are human?
[14:23] ---
They're brainwashed?
[14:25] ---
It's true!
[14:26] ---
After Kate freed Emilico's mind
and told her the truth,
[14:31] ---
she completely vanished.
[14:35] ---
So Shaun... he's human, too?
[14:38] ---
Yes.
[14:43] ---
I'm done cleaning the bathroom.
[14:47] ---
John, think carefully.
[14:49] ---
You must've noticed Shaun
acting a bit differently.
[14:52] ---
Different?
[14:54] ---
Shaun, why are you wearing glasses?
[14:57] ---
So I can work more efficiently.
[14:59] ---
Of course, I'll remove
them outside your room.
[15:02] ---
You said you'd always try
to match how John looked.
[15:06] ---
As you wish.
[15:07] ---
You're so... compliant?!
[15:09] ---
You could at least argue a little bit!
[15:12] ---
You're like you were when we first met.
[15:18] ---
Come to think of it,
Shaun often used to lecture John.
[15:22] ---
But not anymore.
[15:24] ---
What's this forlorn feeling?
It's as if his heart's gone cold.
[15:29] ---
Shaun, you know you don't have to
pledge your loyalty to Shadows House?
[15:38] ---
Master John, Shadows House is absolute!
[15:42] ---
Shaun, you never glared
at John like that before!
[15:47] ---
What's wrong?! Snap out of it!
[15:49] ---
Please, calm down--
[15:50] ---
Listen, Shaun. Emilico has disappeared!
[15:53] ---
That's right. You must be shocked!
[15:55] ---
It's terrible news!
[15:57] ---
John is going to look for her.
[15:59] ---
And he's going with or without you!
[16:01] ---
It's forbidden to leave your room
without your living doll.
[16:05] ---
When did you become so coldhearted?!
[16:09] ---
John, stop it!
[16:11] ---
Mistress Kate, what are you doing here?
[16:13] ---
Let go, Kate!
[16:15] ---
We're going to settle this, man to man.
[16:17] ---
Please, stop this! My face will get--
[16:21] ---
Who cares about your face?
[16:23] ---
John wants the old Shaun back!
[16:26] ---
Look at John!
[16:28] ---
He's crying!
[16:29] ---
Do you know why?
[16:31] ---
Because John's heart aches!
[16:35] ---
Stop!
[16:38] ---
I'm the one feeling pain!
[16:44] ---
Now that's the real Shaun.
[16:47] ---
However... it's still not enough!
[17:12] ---
I've failed as a living doll, haven't I?
[17:16] ---
To do something so foolish to my master...
[17:23] ---
That's because...
[17:24] ---
...you're human, Shaun.
[17:41] ---
Where could Kate be?
[17:43] ---
Louise had something
wonderful to show her.
[18:01] ---
What are you doing?
[18:05] ---
Louise!
[18:07] ---
Kate, John, you're just awful.
[18:09] ---
You were trying to
exclude Louise, weren't you?!
[18:12] ---
No! We were in a hurry!
[18:15] ---
Take your quarrel elsewhere.
[18:17] ---
Forgive the sudden intrusion.
[18:21] ---
But there's something you need to hear.
[18:27] ---
Emilico is gone?!
[18:30] ---
Yes. Please help Kate look for her!
[18:35] ---
Who was Emilico, again?
[18:39] ---
Kate's living doll.
[18:42] ---
What an odd name.
[18:43] ---
But enough about that. Look!
[18:45] ---
Louise wanted to find you
and show you this.
[18:56] ---
Sad face.
[18:58] ---
Happiest face in the world!
[19:01] ---
Fabulous, isn't it?
[19:03] ---
Louise has complete control!
[19:05] ---
My power is physical, but it seems there
are also powers that affect the mind.
[19:10] ---
Hold on. What do you mean, control?
[19:14] ---
Kate will explain later.
[19:16] ---
But, Patrick, now's not the time.
[19:19] ---
Louise, were you even listening to Kate?
[19:22] ---
Of course. You were talking
about your living doll.
[19:26] ---
Speaking of dolls, Louise saw a really
tall veiled doll on the way here.
[19:32] ---
It had a cart with a big bundle on it.
[19:35] ---
That was probably a living doll.
[19:38] ---
A living doll... on a cart?
[19:41] ---
And being the clever shadow she is,
Louise figured out who it was!
[19:45] ---
So who was it?
[19:49] ---
Who do you think it was?
[20:05] ---
Wh-Who are you?!
And why are you doing this?!
[20:09] ---
Greetings. Please forgive
the heavy-handed tactics.
[20:13] ---
Who are you?
[20:14] ---
Please take this off! I can't see a thing!
[20:17] ---
The tea leaves are dancing
about as if they feel the heat.
[20:21] ---
You must start by pouring
boiling water most vigorously
[20:24] ---
if you wish to brew the finest tea.
[20:26] ---
Please answer me!
[20:28] ---
Who are you? Why are you doing this?!
[20:32] ---
Now, all there is to do is wait.
[20:36] ---
Edward abducted Emilico?
[20:39] ---
His suit was visible under his robe.
[20:41] ---
Edward is the only one
who wears such vulgar attire.
[20:46] ---
There can be no doubt.
Edward must mistrust Kate.
[20:50] ---
After all, Kate hid her soot power
from him until the debut.
[20:54] ---
He's likely trying to see whether
Kate is loyal to Shadows House.
[21:00] ---
He's pigheaded, all right.
[21:02] ---
That lout didn't tell John
the labyrinth's rules,
[21:05] ---
so his clothes got dirty!
[21:07] ---
You should've seen Shaun's
downcast look when he saw that!
[21:10] ---
Louise detests Edward, too!
[21:13] ---
Those trees he used in the
debut labyrinth were full of thorns!
[21:17] ---
They could have scratched
Lou's beautiful face!
[21:22] ---
Ricky suffered even worse!
[21:24] ---
Edward tried to crush him with a boulder!
[21:28] ---
Shirley's failure at the debut was,
no doubt, Edward's doing!
[21:33] ---
Patrick will help.
[21:37] ---
Louise detests Edward, too,
so she will gladly lend a hand.
[21:42] ---
Louise.
[21:43] ---
The living dolls were quite
helpful during the debut.
[21:48] ---
It's time the shadows pay that debt.
[21:54] ---
Now that that's settled,
we must move quickly.
[21:58] ---
We're dealing with Edward, after all.
Who knows what he will do to Emilico?
[22:06] ---
Emilico...
[22:18] ---
No ash, no, just shadow
[22:22] ---
A no- "I" body, like a dolly
[22:26] ---
I'm hollow, where'd I go?
[22:30] ---
Nobody knows
[22:33] ---
A murky "I" with black-hole eyes
[22:38] ---
A mimic, oh my! I'm in disguise?
[22:41] ---
"Thank you"? Thank who?
[22:44] ---
Every answer is true
[22:47] ---
If I am no one
[22:51] ---
And I can do nothing
[22:55] ---
Is it a waste to keep living?
[22:58] ---
Is it wrong to go on?
[23:02] ---
What's missing here is me, me, me
[23:07] ---
Without a self
[23:09] ---
Swept away before anyone see, see, sees
[23:14] ---
Like dust from the shelf
[23:17] ---
Neither happy nor sad
[23:21] ---
Don't feel good or bad
[23:24] ---
Not up to snuff
[23:26] ---
I can't even bluff
[23:32] ---
Would you believe this stuff?

"To Lord Grandfather's Wing"
[01:41] ---
Who are you?
[01:48] ---
Tea truly is a fine beverage.
[01:51] ---
Pour boiling water upon the leaves,
[01:53] ---
replace the teapot's lid,
and patiently let it brew.
[01:57] ---
The key is to not be hasty.
[01:59] ---
Then open the lid,
gently stir with a spoon,
[02:02] ---
and pour it through a tea strainer.
[02:07] ---
Finally, enjoy the aroma
[02:10] ---
with one's first sip.
[02:15] ---
This is how adults drink it.
[02:17] ---
Are you not thirsty?
[02:19] ---
Just a little.
[02:22] ---
Let us prepare you a cup
with plenty of sugar.
[02:25] ---
That is, if you answer these questions.
[02:28] ---
Your mistress is a malcontent, is she not?
[02:33] ---
What is Kate trying to do?
[02:36] ---
I have nothing to say to you.
[02:39] ---
I don't know who you are,
[02:41] ---
but I won't say a word without
Mistress Kate's permission.
[02:44] ---
Is that so?
[02:45] ---
Th-Threatening me is a waste of time!
[02:48] ---
I can go without drinking anything for a--
[02:58] ---
I should have finished
that roll before I left.
[03:02] ---
You lack a sense of apprehension.
[03:07] ---
But there's plenty of time.
[03:09] ---
I will expose everything come morning
and present it before Lord Grandfather.
[03:15] ---
Edward is in Lord Grandfather's wing.
[03:19] ---
So we'll have to sneak in there?
[03:21] ---
Is such a thing even possible?
[03:25] ---
Perhaps not.
[03:26] ---
Could you take this a bit more seriously?!
[03:28] ---
Well, where is your brilliant idea?
[03:32] ---
Nothing has come to mind yet.
[03:36] ---
Shaun.
[03:37] ---
Yes? May I be of service?
[03:39] ---
Do you have any ideas?
[03:42] ---
You're always so calm and observant,
[03:45] ---
or so Emilico said.
[03:48] ---
Please share your advice.
[03:50] ---
She's right! You really
are smart, aren't you?!
[03:56] ---
Very well. Please give me
a moment to think.
[04:01] ---
Think.
[04:03] ---
How can we get into Lord Grandfather's
wing without anyone noticing?
[04:07] ---
I've nothing to go on.
[04:10] ---
That wing of the manor is
a complete mystery to me.
[04:13] ---
There may even be traps of some sort.
[04:17] ---
The corridor to Lord Grandfather's wing
is the only way I know how to get there.
[04:22] ---
But there are veiled dolls
standing guard at the entrance.
[04:28] ---
Shaun?
[04:31] ---
There is one way.
[04:34] ---
One that's proven successful.
[04:44] ---
That's so yummy!
[04:46] ---
What are you doing?
[04:47] ---
I'm eating a roll.
[04:51] ---
You're a stubborn one.
[04:53] ---
But how much longer can
you keep up this charade?
[04:56] ---
I don't need to. I'm not hungry anymore!
[04:59] ---
You may be freed from your bonds
if you reveal what Kate intends to do.
[05:05] ---
The answer's no!
[05:06] ---
Then remain as you are.
[05:08] ---
I say no to that, too!
[05:09] ---
Then, what of Kate's--
[05:10] ---
No!
[05:12] ---
Do you understand the situation you're in?
[05:17] ---
Are you even listening?!
[05:19] ---
I-I got sleepy because I'm so full.
[05:23] ---
I know! Let's have a
delightful conversation!
[05:26] ---
After all, I can't imagine you're
doing this because you want to.
[05:30] ---
I can't talk about Mistress Kate,
but I'll listen to all you have to say.
[05:35] ---
Let's talk about lots of things!
[05:37] ---
That would certainly
be more fun than this!
[05:41] ---
You'll be the death of me.
[05:51] ---
Calm yourself, Edward.
This isn't that difficult.
[05:56] ---
We'll slip into the other wing
through this connecting corridor.
[06:01] ---
We'll disguise ourselves as veiled dolls.
[06:03] ---
Of course! That's how
Edward pulled it off!
[06:08] ---
Impressive, Shaun! You're so perceptive!
[06:10] ---
You're embarrassing me, Master John.
[06:14] ---
Kate will go.
[06:16] ---
John will, too!
[06:17] ---
The more of us that go,
the greater the risk of discovery.
[06:21] ---
But we've no idea where Emilico is!
We must split up and look for--
[06:25] ---
That won't work. We've no
way of maintaining contact.
[06:29] ---
Kate will go alone.
[06:32] ---
Yes, but searching the
entire wing alone is impossible.
[06:37] ---
Kate read a book about it.
[06:38] ---
In Lord Grandfather's wing,
[06:40] ---
the higher the floor,
the more important the shadows.
[06:43] ---
There's a first, a second,
and a third floor.
[06:46] ---
Which one do you suppose Edward is on?
[06:49] ---
What John doesn't get
is why one so important
[06:51] ---
would resort to sneaky
measures like an abduction.
[06:54] ---
Yes, that is sneaky.
[06:57] ---
Why take such a risk?
[06:59] ---
You will have to steal a
veiled doll's uniform, won't you?
[07:04] ---
How will you manage that?
[07:06] ---
There must be a room
somewhere where they keep--
[07:12] ---
Who could that be at this hour?
[07:15] ---
Patrick, what's all the racket?
Open the door this instant.
[07:20] ---
Isn't that...?
[07:21] ---
Barbara!
[07:22] ---
That Star Bearer?!
[07:24] ---
Oh no. She must've heard us.
[07:26] ---
Let's escape through Ricky's room.
[07:28] ---
But living dolls' rooms
are locked from the outside.
[07:31] ---
John will bust it open if he must!
[07:34] ---
No, they'll suspect Patrick
if the lock is broken.
[07:38] ---
How long will you make Barbara wait?
Open the door now!
[07:42] ---
The time for thinking is over.
[07:44] ---
Just let Patrick and Ricky
handle this. The rest of you, go!
[07:49] ---
All right. Thank you.
[07:54] ---
Ricky, that chair...
[07:57] ---
Barbara! What brings you here so late?
[08:00] ---
Several voices were heard
coming from this room.
[08:04] ---
As a Star Bearer,
Barbara will search every inch.
[08:07] ---
You must be mistaken.
[08:09] ---
If that's the case, you won't take issue.
[08:12] ---
Barbie, get to work.
[08:18] ---
It's no use. It's locked.
[08:20] ---
Then John shall bust it down!
[08:23] ---
Quiet!
[08:31] ---
Excuse me. We need help! Over here!
[08:34] ---
Louise?! What are you doing?!
[08:37] ---
Thank you for making the rounds.
[08:39] ---
Huh? Who are you talking--
[08:49] ---
Now, let's get out of here.
[08:51] ---
What just happened?
[08:54] ---
Louise's soot can control dolls.
Have you forgotten already?
[09:01] ---
There's no one else here.
[09:04] ---
That leaves the living doll's room.
[09:22] ---
What do we do now?
[09:23] ---
Get a uniform for starters.
[09:26] ---
Louise will make the doll show us the way!
[09:29] ---
All right. Kate will go with Louise.
[09:32] ---
What about John and Shaun?
[09:34] ---
Let's go assess the situation
over at the other wing.
[09:38] ---
Perhaps we'll find a way to sneak in.
[09:41] ---
Great! Let's meet in front
of that corridor, Kate!
[09:45] ---
All right. Make sure no one sees you.
[09:49] ---
No one's there.
[09:51] ---
It must've been our heated conversation.
We'll try to be more careful.
[09:56] ---
Hmph.
[09:57] ---
Since when have you been on watch duty?
[10:01] ---
After Edward was put in charge
of the children's wing,
[10:05] ---
he told us to report any trouble,
no matter how small.
[10:09] ---
Edward's in charge?!
[10:10] ---
Perhaps the debut was well received.
[10:13] ---
So it seems. But why bother
reporting minor problems?
[10:18] ---
He's quite the social climber.
[10:21] ---
It's so infuriating!
[10:24] ---
Mistress Barbara.
[10:26] ---
It is time for us to go.
[10:28] ---
See that you avoid actions that
may be deemed suspicious, Patrick.
[10:32] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[10:46] ---
That was close.
[10:47] ---
But we learned something
that might help Emilico.
[10:51] ---
Why do this?
[10:52] ---
Huh?
[10:53] ---
Why go out of your way
to help that living doll?
[11:02] ---
Don't call her "that living doll."
[11:05] ---
Her name is Emilico.
[11:06] ---
And you are Ricky.
[11:15] ---
Well, there they are.
[11:17] ---
And if John has to--
[11:18] ---
No, Master John, no punching.
What if they call for backup?
[11:25] ---
The wings are farther apart than
I thought, and the cliff is high.
[11:29] ---
It's hard to see when it's so dark.
[11:32] ---
We've only been over there once,
and that was during the debut.
[11:36] ---
We must piece together
what it might look like in there
[11:39] ---
based on our memories
and what we see here.
[11:47] ---
How's this?
[11:50] ---
Yes, not bad.
[11:52] ---
That's a relief.
[11:53] ---
Well, this is as far as Louise goes.
[11:56] ---
She cannot take any further risks.
[11:59] ---
But best of luck to you.
[12:01] ---
Understood.
[12:04] ---
You've been quite helpful. Thank you.
[12:07] ---
It was nothing. Louise merely
wished to show off her soot power.
[12:12] ---
Right. Well, keep your fingers crossed.
[12:21] ---
Mistress Louise?
[12:23] ---
This time it is Kate that he is after,
[12:26] ---
but it could have easily been Louise.
[12:29] ---
If that happened, it would've
been you who were abducted.
[12:33] ---
But Louise would never
let him lay a hand on you!
[12:35] ---
That no-good Edward is loathsome!
[12:46] ---
Oh, no! They've found us!
[12:47] ---
Let's run for it!
[12:49] ---
Wait! It's Kate!
[12:51] ---
Kate?!
[12:53] ---
The first floor of our wing connects
to the basement over there.
[12:58] ---
Once you're through the corridor,
find the stairs that lead up.
[13:02] ---
Understood.
[13:03] ---
They must have watch duty
over there as well.
[13:06] ---
But if it's just veiled dolls,
it shouldn't pose a problem.
[13:11] ---
Yes, but reaching the third floor
sounds nearly impossible.
[13:14] ---
No need for that.
[13:18] ---
Patrick! Ricky! So glad you're safe.
[13:20] ---
Barbara had something interesting to say.
[13:23] ---
Edward's in charge of the children's wing,
and he seeks to rise to the third floor.
[13:28] ---
In short--
[13:29] ---
He lives on the first or second floor!
[13:30] ---
That's still a lot of rooms.
You can't possibly search them all.
[13:35] ---
Leave it to Kate.
[13:39] ---
Something came to mind.
[13:44] ---
Don't bungle this.
[13:46] ---
We're counting on you.
[13:47] ---
We will make it back, both of us.
[13:50] ---
John will join you.
[13:52] ---
Master John!
[13:53] ---
Doesn't this worry you sick?!
[13:55] ---
John will go in your stead!
[13:57] ---
You've already done more
than enough, but thanks.
[14:01] ---
Thanks to the rest of you, too.
[14:05] ---
Time to go.
[14:56] ---
It seems she made it safely in.
[15:00] ---
We should return to our rooms.
It'll spell trouble if the watch finds us.
[15:09] ---
We should go, too, Master John.
[15:12] ---
All right.
[15:32] ---
This looks like a cup for that coffee.
So this is where they make it.
[15:39] ---
Nothing out of the ordinary.
[15:41] ---
Perhaps they do something
after they brew the coffee.
[16:09] ---
I am doing this for Kate's sake as well.
[16:13] ---
Huh?
[16:14] ---
I want to help before it's too late,
but you must cooperate.
[16:18] ---
I don't understand.
[16:20] ---
As it stands now, Kate is to be discarded.
[16:23] ---
But why?!
[16:25] ---
Because you are useless.
[16:27] ---
You are such a failure that Kate
is unable to advance any higher.
[16:32] ---
That is why she rebels
against Shadows House.
[16:35] ---
It's akin to a child's temper tantrum.
It's merely out of spite.
[16:39] ---
Don't speak ill of Mistress Kate!
[16:42] ---
Is there nothing you can tell me?
[16:44] ---
After all, you're always
fretting over trivial matters.
[16:47] ---
You ignore the rules.
[16:49] ---
Your failure to obey Shadows House's code
led Kate down the wrong path.
[16:54] ---
Do you deny it?
[16:56] ---
B-But...
[16:59] ---
Listen. I'm giving you a chance here.
[17:03] ---
Confess to everything,
and I shall help Kate.
[17:07] ---
You're the only one who can save her now.
[17:11] ---
So, out with it. What is Kate planning?
[17:21] ---
A large box?
[17:23] ---
Don't tell me--!
[17:33] ---
Rolly, if you're there, move for Kate.
[17:35] ---
Give Kate a sign.
[17:39] ---
Let's try that again with more conviction.
[17:43] ---
Emilico!
[17:51] ---
Soot?
[17:54] ---
No, finding Emilico is the only thing
that's important right now.
[18:13] ---
Rolly!
[18:15] ---
Rolly? What's that?
[18:16] ---
Oh, uh... nothing.
[18:19] ---
Mistress Kate!
[18:22] ---
Now, answer me. What is Kate planning?
[18:27] ---
Mistress Kate...
[18:29] ---
...is braver than anyone
[18:31] ---
and kinder, too.
[18:34] ---
She is my cherished mistress!
[18:38] ---
How absurd!
[18:48] ---
Look at this mess.
[18:57] ---
Don't make a sound.
[19:03] ---
Is that the cart used to abduct Emilico?
[19:13] ---
Oh, it's you.
[19:15] ---
Is everything all right?
We heard something.
[19:22] ---
So you really did take her.
[19:24] ---
Let's speak outside.
[19:32] ---
That sound...
[19:34] ---
I believe it was a cup that broke
after Rolly crashed into it.
[19:41] ---
Mistress Kate wept as she made me
drink glass after glass of water
[19:45] ---
so I could become myself again.
[19:48] ---
She called me Emilico so that
I would be my own person.
[19:53] ---
And she is ever kind and watches out
for me, even though I'm so clumsy!
[20:02] ---
Mistress Kate is here!
[20:05] ---
Mistress Kate. Mistress Kate!
[20:13] ---
All right. No one's here.
[20:27] ---
Just stay calm.
[20:33] ---
Where are you going?
[20:36] ---
Edward said an intruder was coming,
[20:39] ---
so I thought I'd have a look.
[20:42] ---
If they are trying to
save that living doll,
[20:44] ---
they'll use a veiled-doll
disguise like Edward did.
[20:50] ---
And they'll be pushing a cart as well.
[20:53] ---
But I doubt they could
get it to the second floor.
[20:56] ---
The number of carts in the basement
will tell us if they are here.
[21:08] ---
Oh, no. I must rescue
Emilico before they return.
[21:16] ---
Rolly, heed this call if you're there.
[21:20] ---
Where is Emilico?
[21:23] ---
Please respond!
[21:25] ---
Mistress Kate!
[21:30] ---
Mistress Kate!
[21:32] ---
Emilico!
[21:33] ---
In here, Mistress Kate!
[21:38] ---
Emilico?
[21:39] ---
Where are you? Where are you?!
[21:46] ---
Emilico!
[21:50] ---
Are you all right?!
[21:51] ---
Let's take this off.
[21:53] ---
Mistress Kate!
[21:55] ---
It's such a relief to see you safe.
Let's get out of here.
[21:58] ---
Behind you, Mistress Kate!
[22:00] ---
What?
[22:02] ---
Here at last, I see.
[22:08] ---
Mistress Kate.
[22:18] ---
No ash, no, just shadow
[22:22] ---
A no- "I" body, like a dolly
[22:26] ---
I'm hollow, where'd I go?
[22:30] ---
Nobody knows
[22:33] ---
A murky "I" with black-hole eyes
[22:38] ---
A mimic, oh my! I'm in disguise?
[22:41] ---
"Thank you"? Thank who?
[22:44] ---
Every answer is true
[22:47] ---
If I am no one
[22:51] ---
And I can do nothing
[22:55] ---
Is it a waste to keep living?
[22:58] ---
Is it wrong to go on?
[23:02] ---
What's missing here is me, me, me
[23:07] ---
Without a self
[23:09] ---
Swept away before anyone see, see, sees
[23:14] ---
Like dust from the shelf
[23:17] ---
Neither happy nor sad
[23:21] ---
Don't feel good or bad
[23:24] ---
Not up to snuff
[23:26] ---
I can't even bluff
[23:32] ---
Would you believe this stuff?

[00:07] ---
Rolly, heed this call if you're there.
[00:11] ---
Where is Emilico?
[00:14] ---
Please respond!
[00:16] ---
Mistress Kate!
[00:22] ---
Mistress Kate!
[00:23] ---
Emilico!
[00:24] ---
In here, Mistress Kate!
[00:29] ---
Emilico?
[00:31] ---
Where are you? Where are you?!
[00:37] ---
Emilico!
[00:40] ---
Are you all right?!
[00:42] ---
Let's take this off.
[00:44] ---
Mistress Kate!
[00:46] ---
It's a relief to see you're safe.
Let's get out of here.
[00:49] ---
Behind you, Mistress Kate!
[00:51] ---
What?
[00:53] ---
So, you're here at last!
[00:59] ---
Mistress Kate.
[01:01] ---
Edward.
[01:04] ---
It was well worth the wait, Kate.
[01:07] ---
I was sure you would come,
[01:09] ---
for you are a shadow who
truly cares for her doll.
[01:13] ---
So it was Kate you were after all along.
[01:19] ---
Come morning, I'll bring you
before Lord Grandfather
[01:23] ---
and expose you as a malcontent
and enemy of Shadows House.
[01:26] ---
Then I'll likely rise to the third floor,
my long-cherished wish.
[01:31] ---
Now, Kate, answer me this.
[01:36] ---
What is it you're planning?
[01:40] ---
If you think you'll get away with this
by not answering, you are mistaken.
[01:44] ---
Even if you're not a malcontent,
I can accuse you of breaking the rules.
[01:49] ---
After all, I found you dressed like
this in Lord Grandfather's wing.
[01:54] ---
Kate is here to save Emilico,
whom you abducted.
[01:57] ---
Do you truly think he would believe you?
[02:00] ---
I'm an adult, and you're but a child.
[02:02] ---
It's obvious which one
Lord Grandfather would believe.
[02:08] ---
The outcome of our battle
was decided from the start, Kate.
[02:15] ---
Now, let us wait for
Lord Grandfather to wake.
[02:20] ---
A harsh penalty no doubt awaits you.
[02:23] ---
This may be your last cup of tea.
[02:29] ---
Say your prayers.
[02:31] ---
It's all over for you.
[03:06] ---
Kate! John's coming for you!
[04:40] ---
"For the Sake of the Shadows Family"
[04:44] ---
What floor was it again?
[04:52] ---
Who are you?!
[04:58] ---
Go away, you creepy little thing.
[05:01] ---
John, I mean, I am seeking Edward's room.
[05:09] ---
You want me to follow you?
[05:11] ---
Who would fall for--?
[05:14] ---
There were two extra carts.
That means two intruders.
[05:18] ---
Let's keep our eyes peeled.
[05:20] ---
I will inform Edward.
[05:24] ---
They must be disguised as veiled dolls.
[05:32] ---
I-I shall search for the intruders!
[05:35] ---
It spoke.
[05:41] ---
Get back here!
[05:55] ---
Now you won't cause any more trouble.
[06:10] ---
Not a sound.
[06:18] ---
It's so cute!
[06:21] ---
I'll expose them all for
the malcontents they are.
[06:25] ---
That will ensure my
advance to the third floor.
[06:34] ---
Behaving yourselves?
[06:37] ---
It seems you finally conceded defeat.
[06:39] ---
It's beyond foolish to defy Shadows House.
[06:42] ---
But it's too late to rue your mistake.
[06:46] ---
Your last cup of tea has gone cold.
[06:49] ---
Oh, my bad. You can't drink it
in your present state.
[07:00] ---
Now!
[07:04] ---
What the--?!
[07:05] ---
Emilico!
[07:09] ---
Hey, wait!
[07:16] ---
No, it's John.
[07:19] ---
Master John!
[07:21] ---
You came to save us.
[07:22] ---
Naturally.
[07:24] ---
But now John would like some help.
[07:27] ---
What do we do now?
[07:30] ---
You again?
[07:32] ---
She's on our side.
[07:34] ---
Hurry!
[07:41] ---
Did you find John?
[07:43] ---
No, I believe he went to the
other wing to save Mistress Kate.
[07:48] ---
Of all the harebrained ideas.
[07:50] ---
Let's hope he doesn't
do more harm than good.
[07:52] ---
What of Louise and Lou?
[07:55] ---
They were weary and
returned to their rooms.
[07:57] ---
You're all no help at all.
[08:00] ---
They should be back by now
if it went as planned.
[08:04] ---
This is most worrisome.
[08:06] ---
I'm sorry it's causing you such concern.
[08:09] ---
However, I believe in Master John.
[08:11] ---
He will return with those two.
[08:14] ---
But then Edward will no doubt--
[08:18] ---
That will be Patrick's cue
to spring into action.
[08:21] ---
How can Patrick stop him?
[08:23] ---
Oh, no, it's just...
[08:26] ---
Apologies for being so incompetent.
[08:35] ---
Master Patrick, I think your desire to
save your friends is second to none.
[08:43] ---
Your greatest power is your
brave and beautiful heart.
[08:52] ---
If so, it's because of you.
[08:55] ---
During the debut,
[08:57] ---
you tearfully pleaded with John
and Shaun to take care of Patrick.
[09:04] ---
Master Patrick.
[09:14] ---
The roof?
[09:17] ---
You mean it wants us
to escape by jumping?!
[09:27] ---
Our wing is pretty far.
[09:29] ---
Now I have you!
[09:38] ---
Do not resist.
[09:40] ---
It is all over for you,
[09:42] ---
for you have defied Shadows House
and entered this wing without permission.
[09:46] ---
Not before you trespassed
in the children's wing!
[09:49] ---
Who is going to believe
your word over mine?
[10:03] ---
Kate! Take Emilico and jump!
[10:06] ---
What about you, John?!
[10:07] ---
Just go already!
[10:09] ---
Why are you still flapping your gums?!
[10:16] ---
Emilico, hold on tight.
[10:19] ---
Yes, ma'am!
[10:28] ---
Give it up, Kate.
[10:30] ---
Your soot power will
not take you that far.
[10:38] ---
They'll end up plunging to their death.
[10:41] ---
A fitting end for a foolish malcontent.
[10:44] ---
That's what you think!
[10:50] ---
John is not about to let Kate perish!
[11:01] ---
Don't you ever
underestimate John and company.
[11:09] ---
Aileen!
[11:16] ---
John is not about to let Kate perish!
[11:29] ---
We might not make it.
[11:32] ---
Mistress Kate, please forgive me.
[11:35] ---
Having to hold on to me
[11:37] ---
is a terrible burden for you,
Mistress Kate, and for Master John.
[11:43] ---
Now is not the time for that.
[11:48] ---
Emilico, be still!
[11:50] ---
Mistress Kate.
[11:56] ---
So something did go wrong.
[11:58] ---
This is the only way in or out.
[12:03] ---
Look!
[12:06] ---
Wh-What the--?!
[12:16] ---
Mistress Kate! Emilico!
[12:18] ---
Over here!
[12:19] ---
Slowly now! Don't panic!
[12:25] ---
Oh, no!
[12:37] ---
You're safe.
[12:39] ---
Not yet!
[12:47] ---
Edward.
[12:49] ---
Run for it!
[12:56] ---
Kate, what happened to John?
[12:59] ---
He used his soot power to send us flying.
[13:02] ---
But he may be unable
to move because of it.
[13:13] ---
Mistress Kate!
[13:19] ---
Edward.
[13:21] ---
You've been nothing but trouble!
[13:25] ---
This is the children's wing!
[13:28] ---
We won't let you just do as you please!
[13:30] ---
Who do you think you're speaking to?!
[13:33] ---
Know your place!
[13:35] ---
If you wish to survive here
in Shadows House,
[13:38] ---
dispense with this
inane sense of friendship!
[13:42] ---
Now, surrender to your fate, Kate!
[13:46] ---
And if the rest of you continue
to bar my way, I'll discard you all!
[13:51] ---
What exactly does that mean?
[14:06] ---
You didn't go to bed?
[14:09] ---
Change of plans.
[14:10] ---
Calling Barbara was
a fine idea, was it not?
[14:13] ---
Now Louise is sure to be a Star Bearer!
[14:16] ---
That's just like Louise.
[14:18] ---
That's strange.
[14:20] ---
You live in Lord
Grandfather's wing, Edward.
[14:23] ---
Yet here you are in the children's wing.
[14:26] ---
What is the meaning of this?
Explain yourself.
[14:29] ---
I'm instructing them firsthand!
That's my job!
[14:32] ---
What sort of instruction
is done at daybreak?
[14:35] ---
You said, "I'll discard you all."
How is that instruction?
[14:40] ---
Even as caretaker,
[14:42] ---
unauthorized entry to the
children's wing is forbidden to you.
[14:47] ---
The third-floor lords have
already been informed.
[14:51] ---
What's this?!
[14:54] ---
They await you at the end of the corridor.
[15:00] ---
This is all thanks to you.
[15:04] ---
You so kindly instructed us
[15:07] ---
to carefully watch over
this wing each day.
[15:10] ---
That allowed us to expose
your serious violation.
[15:15] ---
We're so very grateful.
[15:37] ---
I am truly sorry for what I have done.
[15:41] ---
It's too late to bow down
and say you're sorry.
[15:45] ---
Edward, you are hereby
banished from Shadows House.
[15:49] ---
Banished, you say?
[15:51] ---
Naturally.
[15:53] ---
You say you were instructing the children,
but you entered their wing to abduct them.
[16:00] ---
No, that was--
[16:01] ---
You dare question us?
[16:03] ---
You became a liability by making the faces
fret over trivial matters at the debut.
[16:09] ---
Shadows House has no use for you.
[16:12] ---
It only needs those who can be
of service to Lord Grandfather.
[16:16] ---
Edward is banished.
[16:18] ---
As for the other two, how about
a demotion to the first floor?
[16:22] ---
It's settled, then.
[16:26] ---
What say you, Lord?
[16:32] ---
Edward, your bold and unique instruction
of the children was of great interest.
[16:39] ---
However, it seems you
have carried it a bit too far.
[16:48] ---
To all three of you, we give you
the sternest of reprimands.
[17:00] ---
You got that? This is your last chance.
[17:03] ---
Yes, sir. I shall devote
myself body and soul.
[17:19] ---
Were we not too lenient?
[17:24] ---
The potential of Shadows House
is as yet manifold.
[17:37] ---
That was a close one.
[17:39] ---
And yet, this puts the
third floor further away.
[17:42] ---
Edward, you must cease
your self-indulgent ways.
[17:46] ---
I have not given up yet.
[17:49] ---
I sense love and great hopes for me
in that magnanimous judgment.
[17:54] ---
I will repay this debt.
[17:57] ---
I hereby vow to get rid of
those fiendish malcontents
[18:02] ---
along with those third-floor maggots.
[18:07] ---
It is all for the sake
of Lord Grandfather!
[18:22] ---
What is it, Emilico?
[18:24] ---
It's hard to believe we're allowed to
venture outside our rooms so openly.
[18:28] ---
And it's such a joy to
walk by your side like this.
[18:32] ---
Is that so?
[18:34] ---
But I wonder. What do you suppose
happened to Master John after that?
[18:38] ---
That is as yet unknown.
[18:44] ---
As the newest of the bunch,
you should have been here first.
[18:48] ---
Apologies. Everyone arrived so quickly.
[18:52] ---
John, you're safe and sound!
[18:54] ---
John hung on for dear life...
[18:57] ---
to the tail of Edward's
soot pigeon, that is!
[19:00] ---
It was thanks to that
strange little creature.
[19:04] ---
How interesting.
[19:09] ---
Come to think of it, where's Louise?
[19:15] ---
O Kate, most beauteous rose!
[19:17] ---
O Louise, daisy in full bloom!
[19:19] ---
Let the orientation begin.
[19:21] ---
You shall learn how to lead
proper lives at the manor!
[19:24] ---
Thank you.
[19:26] ---
Ready here!
[19:31] ---
Mistress Kate, what do
you suppose that thing was?
[19:35] ---
What thing?
[19:36] ---
That cute little creature that helped us.
[19:42] ---
Yes, that was quite unusual.
[19:44] ---
How did it know about Kate's soot powers?
[19:49] ---
Mistress Kate? Is something the matter?
[19:52] ---
Perhaps...
[21:05] ---
Let us ever remember.
[21:06] ---
The Shadows are an
outstanding family of nobles.
[21:09] ---
To serve them is the pride
and joy of every living doll.
[21:20] ---
One must never forget one's eternal
gratitude to Shadows House.
[21:39] ---
Though today we clean
[21:41] ---
Tomorrow the soot will collect once more
[21:43] ---
So let it collect
[21:46] ---
For we shall again wipe it away
[21:49] ---
Now, let's get to work
[21:54] ---
Let's make ourselves useful
[21:58] ---
Don't fret over trivial matters
[22:13] ---
For the sake of the Shadows family.
[22:23] ---
No ash, no, just shadow
[22:27] ---
A no- "I" body, like a dolly
[22:31] ---
I'm hollow, where'd I go?
[22:35] ---
Nobody knows
[22:38] ---
A murky "I" with black-hole eyes
[22:43] ---
A mimic, oh my! I'm in disguise?
[22:46] ---
"Thank you"? Thank who?
[22:49] ---
Every answer is true
[22:52] ---
If I am no one
[22:56] ---
And I can do nothing
[23:00] ---
Is it a waste to keep living?
[23:03] ---
Is it wrong to go on?
[23:07] ---
What's missing here is me, me, me
[23:12] ---
Without a self
[23:14] ---
Swept away before anyone see, see, sees
[23:19] ---
Like dust from the shelf
[23:22] ---
Neither happy nor sad
[23:26] ---
Don't feel good or bad
[23:29] ---
Not up to snuff
[23:31] ---
I can't even bluff
[23:37] ---
Would you believe this stuff?
