[00:02] Towa
    Round and round they went,
[00:06] Towa
    and came out squeaky clean!
[00:11] Towa
    It's so hot lately, I get sweaty
    just folding the laundry.
[00:24] Towa
    God,
[00:25] Towa
    for the first time since I came to Earth,
[00:28] Towa
    the seasons are changing.

SIGN    Occult Research Club
[02:04] All
    Finals are finally over.
[02:08] Shintaro
    And yet here we are again, for some reason.
[02:11] Tsumugi
    Right?
[02:13] Noel
    True...
[02:15] Shintaro
    I never thought we'd be spending so
    much time in the occult club's room.
SIGN    Occult Research Club
SIGN    A little over a week ago
    The day of their first occult club visit
[02:22] (Flashback) Noel
    Wait!
[02:23] (Flashback) Noel
    I came to ask Shintaro if
    we could study together!
[02:27] (Flashback) Noel
    I believe that studying for exams
    together is a friend thing to do!
[02:30] (Flashback) Shintaro
    Huh? Is it?
[02:32] (Flashback) Noel
    Your place or mine? I don't mind either.
[02:35] (Flashback) Shintaro
    We're studying at home? Again, I'd have to...
[02:39] (Flashback) Tsumugi
    I-In that case, I wanna join. I'll go, too.
[02:42] (Flashback) Tsumugi
    May I?
[02:44] (Flashback) Shintaro
    Hmm... I'll have to ask Towa-chan first.
[02:47] (Flashback) Shintaro
    Also, I've never actually
    studied with friends before.
[02:50] (Flashback) Noel
    No way. Is that purely fictional, too?
[02:53] (Flashback) Shintaro
    No, I don't think so, but...
[02:57] (Flashback) Lilishka
    Why not study here?
[03:04] Noel
    Getting to use this place really helped.
[03:08] Tsumugi
    Yeah. We owe Lili-chan big time.
[03:13] Tsumugi
    We got to be friends with Mofumofu, too.
[03:16] Tsumugi
    How are you so cute every day?
[03:22] Lilishka
    If you ask me, though, Madame
    Tsumugi carried most of the load.
SIGN    Note: Handmade from Cardboard
[03:37] Lilishka
    I truly appreciate all the
    help over the exam period.
[03:40] Shintaro
    Way to show up in a coffin like it's nothing.
[03:43] Lilishka
    Dare I say it? She was simply divine!
[03:45] Noel
    Let's go, Gihren!
[03:47] Tsumugi
    Oh, it wasn't that big a deal.
[03:49] Shintaro
    No, but it's true.
[03:52] Shintaro
    I would've failed for sure if it
    wasn't for you, Tsutsumi-san.
[03:55] Tsumugi
    Huh?
[03:56] Noel
    Yeah.
[03:56] Tsumugi
    What?
[03:58] Lilishka
    Indubitably!
[04:00] (Flashback) Tsumugi
    Use the formula from earlier.
[04:02] (Flashback) Tsumugi
    Oh, be careful. That's a trick question.
[04:04] Tsumugi
    Yeah, yeah! That's the way!
[04:04] Lilishka
    The clarity of Madame Tsumugi's
    explanations, her attentiveness...
[04:07] Tsumugi
    Let's try that one more time.
[04:09] Tsumugi
    Way to go, Tokumitsu! Solve the
    next problem the same way.
[04:09] Lilishka
    I am filled with awe and gratitude.
[04:12] Noel
    For real.
[04:13] Noel
    Thank you, Tsumugi-sama.
SIGN    Gratitude...
[04:15] Shintaro
    Tsumugi-sama!
[04:16] Lilishka
    Tsumugi-sama...
[04:18] Tsumugi
    Quit teasing me! Jeez!
[04:20] Tsumugi
    Wait, did Tokumitsu just call me "Tsumugi"?
[04:25] Tsumugi
    That has to be the first time...
[04:27] Shintaro
    Tsutsumi-san?
SIGN    Flinch
[04:29] Tsumugi
    I-It's nothing!
[04:31] Tsumugi
    By the way,
[04:32] Tsumugi
    exams are over now, so won't our presence
    bother the other occult club members?
[04:37] Shintaro
    Oh, you're right.
[04:39] Shintaro
    I kinda assumed Kagami-san
    was the only member.
[04:41] Shintaro
    Of course there'd be others.
[04:44] Shintaro
    Let's leave so we're not a bother.
[04:46] Tsumugi
    Right.
[04:48] Noel
    How about we stop by somewhere to
    celebrate the end of exams, then?
[04:51] Tsumugi
    You mean at a café or something?
[04:53] Noel
    Yeah!
[04:54] Shintaro
    Sounds good! Wanna join us, Kagami-san?
[04:56] Lilishka
    Hold it!
[04:58] Lilishka
    I cannot let that slide!
[05:00] Shintaro
    Wait, what?
[05:03] Lilishka
    "Kagami Sayuri" is the fake
    name I use undercover!
[05:07] Lilishka
    Call me Lilishka!
[05:10] Shintaro
    That's your issue?
[05:11] Shintaro
    And why do you always strike a pose?
[05:14] Lilishka
    FYI, the noble name Lilishka
[05:16] Lilishka
    comes from mixing the "yuri" as in "lily"
    in "Sayuri" with a famous vampire's name.
[05:21] Shintaro
    Uh, you just admitted that
    Lilishka was the fake name.
SIGN    Ba-dun
[05:25] Lilishka
    I will be the one to choose my name!
[05:28] Shintaro
    Seriously, what's with the pose?
[05:30] Noel
    Wait, by "famous vampire's name,"
    you mean the one from Van Helsing?
[05:34] Lilishka
    Indubitably!
[05:36] Noel
    Isn't it great that Dracula's brides
    have names in that one? It's rare!
[05:41] Lilishka
    It appears you have a deep understanding
    of the world, Madame Noel.
[05:44] Shintaro
    These two are somehow on
    the same wavelength...
[05:47] Shintaro
    Anyway, let's go.
[05:50] Tsumugi
    Yeah.
[05:52] Shintaro
    That reminds me.
[05:53] Shintaro
    You're only counted as an official club
    if you have at least three members, right?
[05:57] Shintaro
    Does that mean you have three members?
[06:00] Lilishka
    But of course.
[06:01] Lilishka
    First, there's me.
[06:03] Lilishka
    Then...
[06:04] Lilishka
    there's President (TBD).
[06:06] Shintaro
    Whoa, that's freaky!
[06:08] Shintaro
    Why do you even have that thing?!
[06:10] Lilishka
    I found it dumped in storage.
[06:12] Shintaro
    I think the verb you're
    looking for is "stored."
[06:14] Lilishka
    And then there's one more...
[06:23] Shintaro
    Oh, sorry!
[06:29] Shintaro
    Are you okay?
SIGN    Tearing up...
[06:37] Shintaro
    Wh-What?! S-Sorry!
[06:40] Shintaro
    I made her cry!
[06:43] Lilishka
    Let me introduce you.
[06:45] Lilishka
    This is Tsurumi Hisui From Class 1-2.
[06:47] Lilishka
    She's the other occult club member.
[06:49] Tsumugi
    She's tiny!
[06:50] Noel
    We have a smol duo!
[06:52] Shintaro
    What do I do? She's terrified.
[06:55] Shintaro
    I-I should try to be as smooth as possible...
[06:58] Shintaro
    Uh, I'm Tokumitsu Shintaro from Class 1-1.
[07:02] Shintaro
    Nice to meet you.
[07:06] Shintaro
    She hates me!
[07:09] Lilishka
    Don't mind Hisui, Shintaro.
[07:11] Lilishka
    She's always like this.
[07:14] Lilishka
    She hates humans.
[07:16] Hisui
    U-Uh... S-Say I'm shy instead...
[07:20] Lilishka
    The very sight of humans
    makes her seethe in rage.
[07:24] Lilishka
    Her tragic karma compels her to.
[07:26] Hisui
    No... I just have social anxiety...
[07:29] Shintaro
    Give her a break, Lilishka.
[07:31] Tsumugi
    Sorry, Tsurumi-san.
[07:33] Tsumugi
    We were using this room
    to study for the finals,
[07:36] Tsumugi
    but we'll be leaving now.
[07:40] Shintaro
    Thanks for having us.
[07:41] Shintaro
    Oh.
[07:43] Shintaro
    Kagami—
SIGN    Grr
[07:45] Shintaro
    I mean, Lili-chan. What will you do?
[07:48] Shintaro
    Tsurumi-san's here, so do you
    want to stay and focus on club?
[07:56] Lilishka
    No. I'll go with you.
[07:59] Lilishka
    I have something important to discuss with
    you, Madame Tsumugi, and Madame Noel.
[08:08] Lilishka
    Before, the occult research club
[08:10] Lilishka
    only had third-year members,
    and they graduated earlier this year.
[08:14] Lilishka
    It was fated to die, but it stayed
    alive because Hisui and I joined.
[08:19] Shintaro
    So you two are the only members now?
[08:22] Lilishka
    Yes.
[08:23] Lilishka
    As such, we are in a very
    precarious position right now.
[08:28] Lilishka
    If nobody joins, we'll go from
    the official occult research club
[08:32] Lilishka
    to the unofficial occult research club.
[08:35] Shintaro
    Uh, I fail to see the problem?
[08:38] Lilishka
    That's where you fine folks come in!
[08:40] Lilishka
    I have deemed you worthy of the ultimate
    honor: becoming new club members!
SIGN    Club
    Membership
    Application
[08:44] Lilishka
    Join us in exploring the deep abyss
    of the mysterious and the unexplained!
[08:49] Shintaro
    Nah, pass.
[08:51] Lilishka
    Wha?!
SIGN    Shock
[08:52] Lilishka
    But you'll get to spend all the time
    you want with your cute senior!
SIGN    Booyah
[08:57] Shintaro
    Still no.
[08:58] Shintaro
    And, what, Mofumofu really is
    gonna be higher up the ladder?
[09:01] Lilishka
    We have A/C! And all-you-can-drink soft drinks!
[09:05] Shintaro
    Urk... That is kinda tempting...
[09:08] Shintaro
    But I'm still not joining!
[09:10] Noel
    Huh? He's not joining?
[09:10] Tsumugi
    Huh? He's not joining?
SIGN    These two were considering joining if Shintaro did.
[09:14] Shintaro
    Wait, is that what you wanted to discuss?
[09:17] Shintaro
    Sorry for dragging you into this, Tsurumi-san.
[09:23] Shintaro
    Uh...
[09:24] Shintaro
    Oh, if you're a member of this club,
    I guess you must like the occult, too.
[09:29] Shintaro
    What are you into?
[09:35] Shintaro
    I made her cry again!
[09:38] Shintaro
    Sorry! You don't have to talk
    to me if you don't want to!
[09:41] Shintaro
    I'm sorry!
[09:44] Shintaro
    Yeah, she does hate me.
[09:47] Shintaro
    I should probably stop talking to her.
[09:49] Lilishka
    Books, Shintaro.
[09:52] Lilishka
    Hisui loves books.
[09:54] Lilishka
    But she freaks out when people
    sit beside her in the library,
[09:57] Lilishka
    so she reads in the club room.
[09:58] Shintaro
    I see.
[10:01] Shintaro
    But why pick the occult club?
[10:08] Noel
    Shintaro, where do you want to celebrate?
[10:11] Noel
    We should decide while
    walking to the station.
[10:13] Tsumugi
    How about a casual restaurant?
    They have all-you-can-drink.
[10:16] Shintaro
    Hmm... Oh, how about the
    Missus D's by the station?
[10:20] Shintaro
    They have a big dining space.
[10:27] Tsumugi
    What? There's a festival going on?
[10:29] Noel
    This is no time for Missus D's.
[10:32] Noel
    Festival, Shintaro! A festival!
[10:34] Lilishka
    This must be fate—nay, destiny!
[10:46] Shintaro
    Sh-She really can't stand me!
[10:50] Staff
    Come one, come all!
[10:53] Tsumugi
    A festival has a totally different
    feel when it's bright out, huh?
[10:57] Shintaro
    I know what you mean.
    You tend to go to these at night.
[11:01] Noel
    Going to a festival with friends...
[11:03] Noel
    It happens IRL too, huh, Shintaro?
[11:07] Shintaro
    Yeah, I guess so.
[11:08] Shintaro
    It's a first for me, too.
[11:10] Tsumugi
    Do you go to festivals often, Tsurumi-san?
[11:13] Hisui
    I like festivals.
[11:16] Hisui
    Especially summer ones.
[11:18] Tsumugi
    I get it. Summer festivals have this
    free-spirited vibe to them, don't they?
[11:22] Hisui
    Mhm.
[11:24] Shintaro
    Wait, what?
[11:26] Shintaro
    Where'd Lili-chan go?
[11:28] Lilishka
    Right here.
[11:34] Shintaro
    She got all swagged out in an instant!
[11:37] Lilishka
    Each person carries multiple
    personae within themselves.
[11:40] Lilishka
    Manifesting one to wear it proudly
    can also be a form of expression.
[11:45] Shintaro
    Mic drop moment, but not with that mask on.
[11:49] Lilishka
    What's wrong, Shintaro?
    Is something bothering you?
[11:53] Lilishka
    Your scent now has the bittersweet
    tinge of angst to it.
[11:59] Lilishka
    I kind of like it, to be honest.
[12:01] Lilishka
    Let me nibble on you for a bit.
[12:03] Shintaro
    Where'd that come from? And no.
[12:06] Lilishka
    Anyway, tell me what's bothering you.
[12:13] Shintaro
    Listen...
[12:14] Shintaro
    I feel like Tsurumi-san's
    especially scared of me.
[12:18] Shintaro
    Not so much with the other girls.
[12:21] Shintaro
    Is it because I startled
    her right off the bat?
[12:24] Hisui
    Huh?
[12:25] Shintaro
    Oh, crap! She heard that!
[12:27] Shintaro
    S-Sor...
[12:30] Lilishka
    Maybe she's mad at you
    because you saw her panties?
[12:33] Shintarohisui
    Pa—?!
[12:35] Hisui
    N-No, Lili-chan...
[12:37] Shintaro
    I-I don't think I saw them, though!
[12:39] Tsumugi
    Well...
[12:41] Tsumugi
    I can't say they weren't visible.
[12:44] Noel
    Shintaro, it was an accident. It happens.
[12:47] Noel
    Like when you saw mine.
[12:49] Shintaro
    Seriously, I didn't see them this time!
[12:51] Hisui
    Uh, no... I...
[12:54] Shintaro
    I really didn't see!
[12:57] Tsumugi
    His desperate pleas are only backing
    her further into a corner...
[13:03] Tsumugi
    Hey, I'm starting to get hungry.
[13:06] Tsumugi
    I want to grab a bite, so why
    don't we split up for a bit?
[13:09] Noel
    Good idea!
[13:11] Noel
    Let's go, Shintaro!
[13:14] Tsumugi
    Hey, wait!
[13:28] Lilishka
    Evil eye unleashed.
[13:47] Noel
    Oh woy, I weay gan'd dalg bwobery
    when I ead zomeding gold.
[13:53] Noel
    But gwabbing a bite with
    fwiends is so fwiendingwike!
[13:58] Noel
    This is weally fun!
[13:59] Tsumugi
    Uh... "fwiendingwike"?
[14:02] Shintaro
    I think she meant to say "friending-like."
SIGN    Fwiendingwike
[14:05] Shintaro
    Not that you can find
    it in any dictionaries.
SIGN    Friending-like
[14:12] Noel
    Oh, I wanna eat some buttered potato, too.
[14:14] Noel
    Let me go get one.
SIGN    Buttered Potatoes
[14:16] Tsumugi
    Hey, that sounds good.
[14:17] Lilishka
    I'll go with you.
[14:19] Hisui
    Oh, wait...
[14:20] Shintaro
    The girls are going ham on the food.
[14:23] Shintaro
    Maybe I should get something, too.
[14:28] Shintaro
    Wow, grilled corn! A staple
    of summer festivals!
SIGN    200 yen
     each
[14:35] Shintaro
    Chilled cucumber? Another staple...
[14:39] Shintaro
    But I don't think I've ever
    had one. I think I'll try it.
[14:48] Shintaro
    Do you want one too, Tsurumi-san?
[14:53] Shintaro
    I-I startled her again.
[14:55] Shintaro
    Oh, sorry! Let's just get some!
[14:59] Shintaro
    We'll take two, mister!
[15:01] Cucumbermans
    You got it!
[15:03] Shintaro
    Here you are.
[15:04] Hisui
    I-I'll pay...
[15:06] Shintaro
    It's fine. I was getting one anyway.
[15:08] Shintaro
    I'll go eat this over there.
[15:11] Hisui
    W-Wait...
[15:12] Shintaro
    You can relax and enjoy it. Bye.
[15:15] Hisui
    Wait... You...
[15:18] Hisui
    You've got it wrong!
[15:21] Shintaro
    What have I got wrong?
[15:24] Shintaro
    Wait, did you not want the cucumber at all?!
[15:26] Hisui
    N-No...
[15:29] Hisui
    No!
[15:31] Noel
    There they are.
[15:33] Noel
    Shintaro! And Tsurumi-san, too.
[15:36] Tsumugi
    Good thing we found you.
[15:38] Noel
    We had no idea where you'd gone.
[15:40] Shintaro
    Sorry about that. Did you
    get the buttered potato?
[15:42] Noel
    I did. It was really steaming.
[15:49] Noel
    I'm so full.
[15:50] Tsumugi
    And yet you're going to
    town on that shaved ice.
[15:54] Noel
    Man, da waz zo much fun. I don wanna go.
[15:59] Shintaro
    But it's getting dark. We'd better go home.
[16:03] Noel
    Yeah...
[16:05] Shintaro
    This is not how I expected
    to enjoy a summer festival.
[16:09] Shintaro
    I never would've imagined it
    before coming to this school.
[16:12] Shintaro
    We hit up a festival after exams
    and had fun with friends...
[16:17] Shintaro
    It was a good day.
[16:19] Shintaro
    It would've been even better
    if Towa-chan were here.
[16:22] Shintaro
    I should come back with her.
[16:25] Shintaro
    She'll love the festival, I'm sure.
[16:28] Hisui
    Oh, Lili-chan...
[16:32] Lilishka
    The golden ball of fire sinks,
    and in its place rises a pale moon.
[16:37] Lilishka
    As Venus begins to shine, the curtain
    is drawn on an evening of chaos.
[16:42] Shintaro
    Cringe.
[16:44] Noel
    Say, Shintaro.
[16:45] Noel
    Is it just me or is that like a scene
    out of a horror anime set in the boonies?
[16:49] Noel
    Is it because of the shrine gate?!
[16:51] Shintaro
    Stop it! That's scary!
[16:52] Lilishka
    Fates intertwine, piercing the stillness,
[16:56] Lilishka
    as hope and despair begin
    to dance with the night.
[17:00] Shintaro
    Huh?
[17:02] Lilishka
    Memento mori...
[17:04] Shintaro
    Watch out!
[17:08] Shintaro
    Oh, right. She can fly—
[17:11] Tsumugi
    Eek! Tokumitsu!
[17:12] Noel
    Shintaro! No way!
[17:14] Noel
    Shintaro!
[17:15] Tsumugi
    Oh, no. It's too dark under the bridge to see.
[17:24] Tsumugi
    Tsurumi-san?!
[17:28] Shintaro
    C-Crap...
[17:30] Shintaro
    I-I can't breathe!
[17:33] Shintaro
    That's weird...
[17:35] Shintaro
    This river shouldn't be so deep.
[17:48] Noel
    Shintaro!
[17:49] Tsumugi
    Tokumitsu!
[17:50] Tsumugi
    Are you okay?
[17:52] Noel
    Are you hurt? Are you cold?
[17:55] Shintaro
    I'm fine.
[17:56] Lilishka
    F-Forgive me, Shintaro.
    I got too carried away.
[18:02] Shintaro
    You really scared me there.
[18:04] Shintaro
    Thanks for helping me, Tsurumi-san.
[18:07] Hisui
    Y-You've got it wrong.
[18:12] Hisui
    Tokumitsu-kun...
[18:14] Hisui
    I-I'm not used to... talking to boys...
[18:21] Hisui
    I got too nervous to talk to you.
[18:23] Hisui
    So...
[18:24] Hisui
    I'm not scared... of you or anything.
[18:28] Hisui
    Sorry for not saying it sooner
    and making it awkward for you.
[18:35] Shintaro
    Oh.
[18:39] Shintaro
    I'm so glad!
[18:43] Shintaro
    I should be the one apologizing
    for making you all nervous.
[18:47] Shintaro
    And I feel like you tried to
    tell me this a bunch of times.
[18:51] Shintaro
    Sorry I didn't hear you out.
[18:53] Hisui
    It's not your fault... Tokumitsu-kun.
[18:58] Shintaro
    Man, I'm glad we got to talk it out.
[19:02] Shintaro
    Today really is a good day.
[19:04] Shintaro
    Outside the whole falling
    into the river thing.
[19:06] Tsumugi
    Huh? Hang on a sec.
[19:08] Tsumugi
    I'm glad you sorted it out,
    but, uh... Tsurumi-san?
[19:13] Tsumugi
    Your head.
[19:15] Noel
    Huh? What is that? A halo?
[19:19] Hisui
    Huh? Why?!
[19:20] Shintaro
    An angel's halo? Wait,
    are you an angel, too?!
[19:24] Hisui
    N-No...
[19:27] Shintaronoeltsumugi
    She's got something on her back!
[19:30] Shintaro
    A shell?
[19:32] Hisui
    No! Er, um...
[19:35] Shintaro
    Does that mean the thing on your head...
[19:38] Shintaro
    is a kappa's dish?
[19:40] Tsumugi
    Th-Th-Th-There it is.
[19:43] Tsumugi
    We have a kappa now.
SIGN    Slam
[19:45] Shintaro
    Huh? Tsutsumi-san?!
[19:47] Lilishka
    I didn't expect Hisui
    to be busted so quickly.
[19:52] Shintaro
    You knew? Why didn't you tell us?
[19:55] Lilishka
    I didn't have Hisui's permission.
[19:59] Shintaro
    Yeah, okay, that makes sense.
[20:01] Shintaro
    She does have her rare sensible moments.
[20:04] Hisui
    Wh-Why is this happening?
[20:06] Hisui
    This wasn't supposed to...
[20:10] Lilishka
    Did you eat any cucumber, Hisui?
[20:13] Hisui
    Oh!
[20:14] Hisui
    I did!
[20:15] Lilishka
    Let me explain.
[20:17] Lilishka
    Hisui turns into a kappa if she makes contact
    with water within an hour of eating cucumber.
[20:22] Shintaro
    So it's my fault for buying
    her that cucumber!
[20:25] Lilishka
    While I'm at it, let me tell you
    that she's no ordinary kappa.
[20:29] Shintaro
    What do you mean, "no ordinary kappa"?
[20:31] Lilishka
    Her grandpa's the boss of the All-Japan
    Kappa Federation that secretly runs Japan.
[20:37] Lilishka
    Which means she's the future
    number one kappa of Japan!
[20:39] Shintaro
    That's such a crazy info dump that it's
    going in one ear and out the other!
[20:43] Hisui
    What do I do? I... I...
[20:47] Noel
    Tsurumi-san.
[20:50] Noel
    It's okay. All three of
    us know about Lili-chan.
[20:55] Noel
    Besides, uh, I'm the same.
[20:59] Hisui
    Huh? Izumi-san...
[21:02] Hisui
    You're a kappa, too?!
[21:03] Noel
    Not quite, sorry!
[21:05] Noel
    So don't worry. We won't tell anyone.
[21:22] Hisui
    Thanks.
[21:24] Shintaro
    Listen.
[21:26] Shintaro
    I'd like you to meet one more
    person, if you don't mind.
[21:29] Shintaro
    Of course, I'd have to ask her first.
[21:32] Shintaro
    What do you say?
[21:34] Hisui
    If you think it's a good idea... I'll do it.
[21:39] Shintaro
    Really?
[21:40] Shintaro
    Then let me go get her right away.
[21:46] Towa
    Wow!
[21:49] Towa
    You're a kappa? Amazing!
[21:51] Towa
    I'm so honored to meet you
    right after meeting a vampire!
[21:57] Towa
    The shell on your back is so wonderful.
[21:57] Shintaro
    Towa-chan, your wings are showing!
[22:00] Shintaro
    So's the shell, but... Calm down, Towa-chan!
