[00:12] Kojou
    Goodbye, Himeragi.
[00:14] Yukina
    Wait, Senpai! I... I...
[00:25] Yukina
    Tears?
[00:38] Yukina
    What...
[00:41] Yukina
    was I about to say?
[02:18] Yukina
    Um...
[02:20] Yukina
    Senpai, if I were to go away,
    what would you do?
[02:24] Kojou
    Huh? What brought this on?
[02:27] Yukina
    Uh... I was just wondering.
[02:31] Yukina
    What would you do?
[02:32] Kojou
    Well, you did go away
    for the training camp...
[02:37] Kojou
    I guess it would make some
    things easier for both of us.
[02:43] Yukina
    I see. You'd prefer that I wasn't here.
[02:46] Yukina
    I understand.
[02:48] Kojou
    No, I didn't say I'd prefer it!
[02:51] Kojou
    I just meant observing me every
    day must be tough on you...
[02:57] Nagisa
    Ow!
[02:58] Nagisa
    Oww...
[03:00] Girl
    So close!
[03:01] Girl
    Don't worry about it!
[03:04] (Flashback) Kojou
    ...easier for both of us.
[03:07] Yukina
    Stupid Senpai...
[03:09] Yukina
    He's the one who starts doing
    irresponsible things
[03:12] Yukina
    as soon as I take my eyes off of him...
[03:16] Yukina
    Still, what did he mean by "easier"?
[03:19] Yukina
    He could've found a
    better way to say that!
[03:22] Yukina
    He could have!
[03:36] Nagisa
    Yukina-chan, that was awesome!
[03:38] Kanon
    That was really beautiful.
[03:42] Shindou
    You really are amazing, Yukina.
[03:45] Shindou
    Are you doing any sports?
[03:47] Yukina
    Oh, uh... Not really...
[03:50] Yukina
    I was just thinking about something...
[03:52] Shindou
    Wow! You can jump like
    that just by thinking?
[03:54] Nagisa
    I get it! Like you're in a
    state of nothingness, right?
[03:59] Sasa
    All right, all right! Next jump!
[04:07] Sasa
    Okay, that's it for gym class today.
[04:10] Sasa
    Oh, Himeragi-chan!
[04:12] Sasa
    Are you on duty today?
[04:15] Yukina
    Future plans questionnaires?
[04:18] Sasa
    They were actually supposed to be handed
    out in homeroom this morning,
[04:22] Sasa
    but I guess I forgot.
[04:24] Sasa
    Sorry, but could you hand them out now?
[04:26] Yukina
    Okay.
[04:28] Sasa
    Oh, and be sure to write down
    your plans for the future, too.
[04:33] Yukina
    You know, don't you, Sensei? That I'm...
[04:36] Sasa
    Of course I do.
[04:38] Sasa
    But you're only in your
    third year of junior high.
[04:42] Sasa
    If there's anything you want to do,
[04:43] Sasa
    Natsuki-senpai and I will do
    all we can to support you.
[04:55] Yukina
    My... future?
[04:59] Yukina
    I never thought about it.
[05:02] Yukina
    Growing up in High God Forest,
[05:04] Yukina
    all I knew was that I had
    to hurry and become a
[05:08] Yukina
    full-fledged Sword Shaman...
[05:25] Yukina
    You're...
[05:31] Yukina
    No...
[05:33] Yukina
    Why?
[05:48] Sayaka
    Lord Ardeal!
[06:00] Sayaka
    Th-This outfit was a
    penalty... I mean...
[06:03] Sayaka
    It's part of my training,
    so don't give it any thought!
[06:06] Sayaka
    More importantly, what brings
    you to a place like this?
[06:10] Vatler
    So even a War Dancer of
    the Lion King Organization
[06:13] Vatler
    didn't feel anything?
[06:15] Vatler
    Am I just being a bit too high-strung?
[06:20] Vatler
    I thought I felt the dragon,
[06:23] Vatler
    directly below here, that supports
    Itogami Island writhing...
[06:26] Sayaka
    The dragon veins... The ley lines?
[06:28] Vatler
    Well, hopefully, I was
    just overthinking things.
[06:38] Sayaka
    What was that?
[06:48] Kid
    I'm starving!
[06:49] Kid
    What're you eating for lunch?
[06:49] Yaze
    Oh, it's Himeragi-chan.
[06:52] Yaze
    She's as pretty as ever.
[06:56] Yaze
    It's like she lives
    in a world of her own.
[06:58] Yaze
    She's cute, she's thin,
    her face is tiny, she's cute...
[07:01] Yaze
    And that little bit of ditz
    mixed in is irresistible!
[07:05] Reina
    Ow!
[07:07] Kojou
    Uh, that was more than
    just a little bit of ditz.
[07:11] Kojou
    What is she doing?
[07:14] Kojou
    Are you okay, Himeragi?
[07:16] Reina
    Uh, yes... I guess...
[07:18] Yukina
    Wait, what? Kojou-kun?
[07:22] Kojou
    Kojou... "kun"?
[07:25] Reina
    Please excuse me, Akatsuki-senpai.
[07:29] Kojou
    No, I don't care what you call me...
[07:33] Kojou
    But you're not hurt, are you?
[07:35] Reina
    No, I'm fine.
[07:37] Reina
    I guess this door isn't automatic ye—
[07:43] Reina
    Are you Yaze-senpai?
[07:46] Reina
    You're kidding!
[07:47] Yaze
    What's with you all of a sudden?
[07:48] Yaze
    You're acting like you don't know me.
[07:50] Reina
    Well, you're much thinner.
[07:53] Reina
    And your hair is so thick...
[07:55] Yaze
    Wait a second!
[07:56] Yaze
    Could you not say things that
    make me worry about my future?!
[07:59] Reina
    I-I'm sorry.
[08:01] Reina
    But you might want to go a
    little easier on the hair dyes.
[08:06] Reina
    It could damage your scalp...
[08:09] Yaze
    Y-You've got a point. The UV rays are
    strong on Itogami Island, too...
[08:14] Kojou
    What's up with you, Himeragi?
[08:16] Kojou
    You're acting weird.
[08:18] Reina
    Um... Senpai?
[08:21] Reina
    You're touching me?
[08:23] Kojou
    Oh, sorry. Did it bother you?
[08:25] Reina
    No, not at all.
[08:27] Reina
    It just wasn't like what I'd heard...
[08:32] Reina
    Were we always this close?
[08:36] Kojou
    Huh?
[08:37] Yaze
    You so were!
[08:38] Yaze
    Flirting in front of us all the time...
[08:41] Yaze
    Everyone's always thinking,
    "Just die, Kojou!"
[08:43] Kojou
    That's not everyone!
    That's just your own opinion!
[08:47] Kojou
    Himeragi, come with me.
[08:50] Kojou
    Seriously, what's going on?
[08:52] Kojou
    You're the one who says
    you follow me around
[08:54] Kojou
    because you're my observer!
[08:56] Reina
    I do?
[08:57] Reina
    So, for example... we go to
    and from school together?
[09:01] Kojou
    We just did this morning, didn't we?
[09:03] Yukina
    And of course, I've let
    you drink my blood, right?
[09:07] Kojou
    W-We didn't have any choice!
[09:10] Kojou
    I was dying, and stuff was happening...
[09:12] Reina
    Oh? Well, that's what I figured.
[09:16] Reina
    You really are an indecent guy.
[09:19] Kojou
    Hey, Himeragi!
[09:21] Natsuki
    What's all the fuss, Akatsuki Kojou?
[09:25] Natsuki
    If you go into heat here,
    you'll disrupt traffic.
[09:28] Kojou
    I'm not in heat!
[09:30] Kojou
    You're a teacher! What are you saying?!
[09:32] Reina
    N-Natsuki-chan?
[09:37] Reina
    You really are Natsuki-chan!
[09:40] Reina
    It's like you haven't grown at all!
[09:43] Natsuki
    You've picked up quite the habit of
[09:45] Natsuki
    talking down to me since I last saw you,
[09:48] Natsuki
    transfer student.
[09:50] Natsuki
    Wait, you're... That feeling...
[09:56] Yukina
    P-Please, stop that!
[09:58] Kojou
    Natsuki-chan! You shouldn't do that in public!
[10:11] Nagisa
    Oh, Yukina-chan!
[10:13] Nagisa
    I was worried when you didn't
    come to the cafeteria.
[10:16] Kojou
    Nagisa...
[10:17] Reina
    Huh? Aunt Nagisa?! You're so young!
[10:19] Nagisa
    Aunt?
[10:20] Nagisa
    That's harsh, Yukina-chan!
[10:23] Nagisa
    I know people say I'm like
    an old woman in the family
[10:26] Nagisa
    because I talk so much, but...
[10:28] Reina
    I didn't mean that, Aunt Nagisa...
[10:29] Nagisa
    There! You called me Aunt again!
[10:34] Nagisa
    Asagi-chan, what do I do?!
[10:35] Asagi
    There, there. Don't cry.
[10:37] Asagi
    I bet she just means you're dependable.
[10:39] Asagi
    Or maybe she's just showing affection.
[10:41] Asagi
    Right, Himeragi-san?
[10:42] Reina
    Huh? Asagi-chan, as in... Doc?!
[10:46] Asagi
    Pardon?
[10:46] Reina
    Is it really you, Doc?!
[10:48] Reina
    You look completely different!
[10:51] Asagi
    H-Himeragi-san? What's wrong?
[10:53] Asagi
    Hey, Kojou, do something!
[10:56] Kojou
    What am I supposed to do?
[10:58] Reina
    What do I do, Senpai?!
[11:00] Reina
    Doc is so cute!
[11:02] Reina
    She's gorgeous, she's young,
    she has a great body,
[11:04] Reina
    she smells good, and she's gorgeous!
[11:06] Reina
    I heard she was a "gal" type,
[11:07] Reina
    so I was expecting garish
    makeup and weird clo—
[11:12] Kojou
    Hey, what happened?
[11:14] Reina
    I'm sorry... I got a little worked up...
[11:21] Kojou
    Hey! Wait up, Himeragi!
[11:24] Nagisa
    Y-Yukina-chan?
[11:26] Asagi
    What was that all about?
[11:28] Yaze
    Beats me.
[11:57] Sayaka
    What is this?
[12:00] Sayaka
    I've never seen waves like these...
[12:07] Sayaka
    Lord Ardeal? What are you...
[12:10] Vatler
    A little test shot, and we'll find out.
[12:12] Vatler
    Upananda!
[12:49] Reina
    I'm sorry, Senpai. I've calmed down now.
[12:54] Kojou
    Vampiric urges?
[12:57] Reina
    You figured it out?
[12:59] Kojou
    You're not Himeragi. Who are you?
[13:02] Reina
    Technically, I'm a Himeragi, too.
[13:06] Reina
    Hmm...
[13:08] Reina
    Himeragi is my maiden
    name, you might say.
[13:11] Kojou
    What?
[13:12] Kojou
    Speaking of which, you said
    some weird things back there.
[13:16] Kojou
    Calling Nagisa your aunt,
    calling Asagi "Doc"...
[13:20] Kojou
    And saying Natsuki-chan hasn't grown.
[13:23] Reina
    Oh, um, that was...
[13:26] Yukina
    Senpai!
[13:27] Yukina
    Get back!
[13:32] Kojou
    Himeragi?
[13:34] Kojou
    That's the real one?
[13:43] Yukina
    Are you all right, Senpai?
[13:45] Kojou
    Yeah...
[13:48] Kojou
    That's right...
[13:49] Kojou
    That's how I know you're Himeragi.
[13:52] Yukina
    I have a feeling you just said
    something very rude about me,
[13:56] Yukina
    but I'll get to that later.
[13:59] Reina
    Oh, darn...
[14:00] Reina
    You came to already?
[14:02] Yukina
    Step away, Senpai.
[14:04] Yukina
    I'll take her on.
[14:06] Kojou
    Take her on?
[14:08] Kojou
    Just because she copied
    you, there's no need to...
[14:11] Yukina
    Schneesturm Wolfin!
[14:13] Reina
    Wait a second!
[14:15] Reina
    For the record, I have my reasons!
[14:17] Reina
    So just listen for a—
[14:19] Yukina
    Enough talk!
[14:23] Reina
    You're still like this...
[14:26] Reina
    Hey, Kojou-kun.
[14:28] Reina
    The way she won't listen to a word
    you say once you get her mad...
[14:32] Reina
    She's been like that ever since now?
[14:33] Kojou
    Uh... Well, I guess she
    can be like that...
[14:37] Yukina
    Senpai!
[14:39] Kojou
    But, hey, she said she has her reasons.
[14:43] Kojou
    Can't we just hear her out?
[14:50] Yukina
    Very well. Explain yourself.
[14:53] Reina
    What's with the attitude?
[14:55] Reina
    It's because you're
    always such a stiff...
[14:57] Reina
    I'll tell you this now.
[15:00] Reina
    The harder you are,
    the more easily you break,
[15:02] Reina
    and the more easily you
    break those around you.
[15:04] Yukina
    Thanks for the warning.
[15:07] Yukina
    Is that all you wanted to say?
[15:09] Kojou
    C-Come on, you two...
[15:12] Kojou
    Let's just calm down and—
[15:22] Asagi
    What was that?
[15:24] Asagi
    It came from behind the school?
[15:28] Asagi
    Weird...
[15:30] Asagi
    Hey, Motoki, you heard it, too, didn't you?
[15:33] Yaze
    Huh? Uh, yeah...
[15:35] Yaze
    I wonder what that was.
[15:39] Asagi
    Huh?
[15:40] Asagi
    Where's Natsuki-chan?
[15:41] Yaze
    Dunno.
[15:44] Yaze
    Is it after Kojou?
[15:46] Yaze
    I haven't picked up information
    on anything dangerous...
[15:50] Yaze
    This one's up to you, Natsuki-chan.
[16:01] Yukina
    Dimension controlling magic?
[16:03] Kojou
    Natsuki-chan?
[16:06] Kojou
    What is that thing?
[16:07] Yukina
    It's most likely a magical beast.
[16:10] Reina
    So you did come here...
[16:12] Kojou
    Do you know somethi—
[16:15] Reina
    Look out!
[16:28] Kojou
    Hey!
[16:29] Yukina
    Senpai!
[16:50] Kojou
    What the hell did you just do?
[16:58] Yukina
    Senpai!
[16:59] Yukina
    Don't!
[17:00] Kojou
    But...
[17:01] Yukina
    Can you control a Familiar
    in your condition?
[17:04] Yukina
    And think about where you are.
[17:06] Yukina
    Even if you don't lose control,
[17:08] Yukina
    your power will hurt
    other people nearby!
[17:21] Yukina
    Its tail... Teleportation?
[17:25] Yukina
    Don't follow its movements.
[17:27] Yukina
    Watch it mentally...
    just a moment's future...
[17:40] Kojou
    I get it.
[17:42] Kojou
    If this had been the real Himeragi,
[17:45] Kojou
    this still could have happened
    to her at any time...
[17:56] Yukina
    What was that sound?
[18:00] Yukina
    Senpai!
[18:02] Yukina
    I, Sword Shaman of the High God, as a
    priestess of the Lion, beseech thee...
[18:06] Yukina
    Dawn light of exorcism,
    spirit wolf of snowy mist...
[18:09] Yukina
    Grant me the divine might of thy steel,
[18:12] Yukina
    that I may smite a hundred evil spirits!
[18:33] Yukina
    It can't be... Schneesturm Wolfin...
[18:36] Yukina
    broke?
[18:40] Kojou
    Himeragi!
[18:41] Reina
    Come, Hasta Aurum!
[19:11] Kojou
    You're...
[19:13] Reina
    You shouldn't be surprised, Kojou-kun.
[19:16] Reina
    I've inherited the curse
    of immortality, too.
[19:19] Reina
    It affects me just a little
    more than most people.
[19:23] Reina
    I followed that magical beast here.
[19:26] Reina
    If it's left alone,
    disaster will come to this island.
[19:31] Reina
    So I can't go back
    until I bring it down.
[19:33] Kojou
    Go back? To where?
[19:36] Kojou
    Who are you?
[19:41] Natsuki
    That's enough, Akatsuki Kojou.
[19:43] Natsuki
    And don't you say any more,
    lookalike of the transfer student.
[19:45] Both
    Natsuki-chan!
[19:49] Natsuki
    I'll look after this girl.
[19:51] Natsuki
    I'll have no objections. Got it?
[19:54] Kojou
    But, Natsuki-chan...
[19:57] Natsuki
    Shouldn't you be
[19:58] Natsuki
    more worried about doing something
    for the real transfer student?
[20:05] Kojou
    Himeragi...
[20:08] Yukina
    Schneesturm Wolfin... broke.
[20:13] Kojou
    Himeragi...
[20:21] Kojou
    B-But, this happened before—
[20:24] Yukina
    This is different!
[20:27] Yukina
    Even the core is completely shattered.
[20:33] Yukina
    It's just like she said.
[20:35] Yukina
    Being too hard makes you fragile.
[20:37] Yukina
    You'll end up breaking yourself
    and those around you.
[20:43] Vatler
    Too bad. Looks like
    the good part's over.
[20:47] Sayaka
    A girl who looks just
    like Yukina? Who is she?
[20:52] Vatler
    I think things just got a tad more interesting.
[21:23] Yukina
    Could that have been...
[21:36] Guy
    I'll be taking your luggage.
[21:38] Guy
    Also, this is for you.
[21:43] Yukina
    "Himeragi Yukina.
[21:45] Yukina
    The Lion King Organization hereby
    orders the aforementioned
[21:51] Yukina
    to return to High God Forest."
SIGN    Next Time
[23:26] Yukina
    What do I want to do?
[23:28] Yukina
    Why are you asking me that?
[23:30] Yukina
    The answer should be obvious!
[23:33] Yukina
    I want to always... always...
SIGN    Empire of the Dawn II
[23:37] Yukina
    "Empire of the Dawn II."
