[00:01] (Flashback) Classmate A
    Nachi-kun says he's seeing ghosts again.
[00:05] (Flashback) Classmate B
    You're such a liar.
[00:06] (Flashback) Classmate C
    You just want attention.
[00:10] (Flashback) Younger Nachi
    I'm not lying... It's the truth.
[00:16] (Flashback) Nachi's Father
    Takamura, why are you making
    up such creepy nonsense?
[00:20] (Flashback) Younger Nachi
    I'm not! There's a black thing right there!
[00:24] (Flashback) Nachi's Mother
    I don't know... I just don't know anymore...
[00:30] (Flashback) Younger Nachi
    Dad... Mom...
[00:34] Aoi
    You mustn't look at me.
SIGN    You mustn't look at me.
SIGN    Episode 10 Shelf of Hearts
[02:16] Aoi
    Why...?
[02:18] Nachi
    You can't transform into Nue, can you?
[02:21] Nachi
    Just as I planned.
[02:26] Nachi
    You're all mine now, Aoi-kun.
[02:31] Nachi
    I wonder how much you've grown...
    as part of my powers.
[02:36] Ise/Yukari
    Aoi!
[02:38] Ise
    D-Damn it!
[02:39] Nachi
    It's no use. The harder you try to
    escape, the stronger it'll bind you.
[02:44] Nachi
    Like this.
[02:48] Himari
    Yukari-san! Ise!
[02:48] Aoi
    Yukari! Ise!
[02:49] Himari
    Stop this!
[02:51] Aoi
    Why would you do something like this?
[02:55] Nachi
    It all comes down to "fate."
[03:00] Nachi
    To gain the power to rule ayakashi,
[03:03] Nachi
    I looked for Momochi House
    but could never reach it.
[03:09] Nachi
    Only those suited to become
     the Omamori-sama are welcomed there.
[03:14] Nachi
    But I didn't qualify as a candidate...
[03:17] Nachi
    When I realized I wasn't fit, I figured
    I could find someone who was.
[03:22] Nachi
    Day in and day out, I searched
    for a child who would do.
[03:31] Nachi
    And then...
[03:33] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    Is that your friend?
[03:38] (Flashback) Nachi
    So you can see it?
[03:41] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    Hey, can you teach me more about ayakashi?
[03:46] (Flashback) Nachi
    I don't mind, but...
[03:48] (Flashback) Nachi
    Is it okay for you to be
    coming here every day?
[03:50] (Flashback) Nachi
    What about your school friends?
[03:53] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    I don't want to trouble them, so...
[03:56] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    I want to stay with you.
    You don't call me a liar.
[04:01] (Flashback) Nachi
    Has your family said that to you?
[04:04] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    Yeah.
[04:05] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    These weird things follow me around.
[04:09] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    But no one believes me when I tell them...
[04:12] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    They say I'm going to ruin the family.
[04:20] (Flashback) Nachi
    They might be right.
[04:22] (Flashback) Nachi
    Aoi-kun, everyone else may
    be happier if you disappear.
[04:34] (Flashback) Nachi
    Deep in those mountains is a vacant manor
    no one uses called Momochi House.
[04:39] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    Momochi House?
[04:40] (Flashback) Nachi
    That's right. What if you hide
    there for a little while?
[04:45] (Flashback) Nachi
    I bet your family will go looking
    for you if you go missing.
[04:51] (Flashback) Aoi
    But... what if no one comes for me?
[04:55] (Flashback) Nachi
    Don't worry. I'll come get you.
[04:59] (Flashback) Aoi
    You mean it?
[05:00] (Flashback) Nachi
    Sure. I promise.
[05:11] (Flashback) Nachi
    Now, run along to Momochi House.
[05:20] Nachi
    It turns out you're just
    as talented as I hoped.
[05:25] Nachi
    Momochi House instantly chose you
    as the new Omamori-sama.
[05:30] Himari
    How awful...
[05:33] Aoi
    So why didn't I remember you at first?
[05:37] Nachi
    Poor thing. You must have
    been pushed to the brink.
[05:43] Nachi
    By your family, by the bad faith of others,
[05:47] Nachi
    and by evil ayakashi.
[05:52] Nachi
    It's taken me so long,
[05:55] Nachi
    but I can finally realize my deepest desires.
[05:58] Nachi
    Although, Aoi-kun...
[06:00] Nachi
    You've shown a bit too much promise.
[06:03] Nachi
    Unlike with other shikigami,
[06:05] Nachi
    trying to dominate you in Nue's form
     would've been quite the task.
[06:10] Nachi
    That's where my next idea came into play.
[06:15] Nachi
    And that was you, Momochi-kun.
[06:19] Nachi
    Thanks to you, Aoi-kun's heart wavered.
[06:23] Nachi
    He began to reclaim his human side,
[06:26] Nachi
    so much so that he
    couldn't maintain the balance.
[06:29] Himari
    What are you talking about?
[06:31] Nachi
    You've truly been an incredible student,
    acting exactly according to my plans.
[06:38] Nachi
    I'm so grateful you came to
    Momochi House, Himari Momochi-kun.
SIGN    Last Will and Testament
[06:46] Himari
    Don't tell me...
[06:47] Himari
    That will...
[06:50] Nachi
    It all comes down to "fate."
[06:52] Nachi
    And fate can be woven with one's own hands.
[06:57] Himari
    How could you...?
[06:59] Nachi
    That should answer any
    questions you may have.
[07:02] Nachi
    Let's wrap up this lesson
    and get down to business.
[07:08] Himari
    Aoi!
[07:11] Aoi
    Himari!
[07:13] Nachi
    Such little power for someone
     with the Momochi name...
[07:20] Aoi
    Himari...
[07:23] Nachi
    I'm the only one who can
    truly understand you.
[07:26] Nachi
    Give me all your misery, your loneliness.
     Give me everything.
[07:30] Nachi
    Become my shikigami, Aoi-kun.
[07:34] Nachi
    Or rather, "Omamori-sama."
[07:42] Himari
    Aoi!
[07:51] Himari
    What's happening?
[07:53] Nachi
    The Omamori-sama...
[07:55] Nachi
    possesses the power to command all
    ayakashi roaming the human world,
[08:01] Nachi
    and the ability to bring peace
    and order to all people!
[08:19] Himari
    Aoi?
[08:21] Himari
    Where did you go?! Aoi!
[08:28] Himari
    Aoi... Where are you?
[08:33] Himari
    Answer if you hear me!
[08:41] Himari
    They're not here...
[08:43] Himari
    Aoi, everyone... Where are you?
[08:47] Kasha
    It's no use searching for them.
[08:52] Himari
    K-Kasha?!
[08:54] Kasha
    Nue and the others are being
    held in that raven's cage.
[08:57] Kasha
    Somewhere out of human reach.
[09:00] Himari
    No way...
[09:08] Nachi
    You worthless ayakashi.
[09:11] Nachi
    There's no place for the
    likes of you in this world.
[09:16] Nachi
    Impressive. You've managed to stay conscious.
[09:20] Aoi
    Please let Yukari and Ise go...
[09:26] Nachi
    You haven't changed one bit.
    Such a kind heart.
[09:32] Nachi
    Listen here, Aoi-kun.
[09:34] Nachi
    Ayakashi are nothing but invaders
    polluting the human world.
[09:38] Nachi
    Humans born without power have
    always lived in fear of them.
[09:42] Nachi
    That's why those with powers
    like us must fight them.
[09:47] Aoi
    What are you talking about?
[09:49] Nachi
    Look at the reality of our world, Aoi-kun.
[09:53] Nachi
    Ayakashi that threaten order
    need to be eliminated.
[09:57] Aoi
    No! I like everyone, all the ayakashi...
[10:03] Nachi
    Poor thing.
[10:05] Nachi
    They must have deceived you,
    growing up in that evil house.
[10:09] Aoi
    Th-That's not true...!
[10:15] Nachi
    Are you in pain? I'm sorry.
[10:19] Nachi
    But it'll all be okay.
    I'll lead you from now on, Aoi-kun.
[10:25] Nachi
    If you submit to me,
     you'll be released from it all.
[10:30] Nachi
    Your pain and your sadness.
[10:34] Nachi
    Humans belong in the human world,
    and ayakashi in the spiritual realm.
[10:37] Nachi
    That's the rightful order of nature.
[10:40] Nachi
    With the power of Nue, the king of ayakashi,
    I shall be the order the world needs.
[10:46] Nachi
    Now, Aoi-kun, let u realize a world
    of beauty and purity together!
[10:51] Aoi
    Himari...
[10:55] Himari
    Kasha! Where are Aoi and the others?
[10:57] Himari
    What do you mean when you say
     they're out of human reach?
[11:00] Kasha
    Your howling is as annoying as ever.
[11:03] Himari
    Like I care! Now tell me!
    Why did everyone disappear?!
[11:07] Kasha
    It's that raven's spell.
[11:10] Kasha
    Momochi House acts as a barrier between
    the human world and spiritual realm.
[11:15] Kasha
    If we were to call you humans' world "yang,"
    the spiritual world would be "yin."
[11:19] Kasha
    And this magic blocks
    the two off from one another.
[11:23] Kasha
    Like he chanted, "Kagome, Kagome..."
[11:25] Himari
    So everyone's in the world
    of "yin" right now?
[11:29] Kasha
    It seems that cunning spellbinder
    excels in separating worlds.
[11:35] Kasha
    As you may recall yourself...
[11:38] (Flashback) Nachi
    Give it a try.
[11:40] Himari
    Of course...
[11:42] Himari
    That looking glass was Nachi-sensei's.
[11:44] Kasha
    A being of such lowly stature daring
    to set foot in the ways of ayakashi...
[11:49] Kasha
    What an impudent and ignorant crow.
[11:52] Himari
    How can we save Aoi and the others?
[11:54] Kasha
    If you wish to pluck the feathers
    of the enemy crow,
[11:57] Kasha
    you'll have to find your own
    way to the spiritual realm.
[11:59] Kasha
    Once there, search for clues
    that will lead you to Nue.
[12:04] Kasha
    Succeed in entering and you'll likely
    break the balance of his spell.
[12:09] Kasha
    However... mortal bodies cannot
    cross into the spiritual realm.
[12:14] Kasha
    Momochi girl, perhaps you
    should try dying once.
[12:17] Himari
    What?!
[12:19] Kasha
    Though the dead become shadows,
    so that wouldn't do.
[12:23] Kasha
    How troublesome. Might as well—
[12:26] Himari
    Wh-What now?
[12:30] Himari
    That's where...
[12:35] Himari
    This is it!
[12:43] Himari
    The winter cherry lantern...
[12:45] Kasha
    Oh? I see you possess a rare trinket.
[12:49] (Flashback) Granny Cat
    It's said that this winter cherry lantern
    can light the way of truth, but only once.
[12:56] Himari
    Only once...
[13:01] Kasha
    Will you go?
[13:02] Himari
    Yup!
[13:03] Kasha
    It's beyond stupid for a mere human to enter
    the spiritual realm with no protection.
[13:09] Kasha
    You must know it could mean
    a fate worse than death.
[13:12] Himari
    I have to have faith
     in the only path open to me.
[13:15] Himari
    No matter what, I'll find them.
    I'll find Aoi.
[13:31] Himari
    It's pitch black.
[13:33] Himari
    I can't even see the way...
[13:41] Himari
    Great! I'll just follow this!
[13:50] Himari
    I have to trust the winter cherry lantern.
[14:02] Himari
    What's this? A gate?
[14:06] Himari
    What could this be doing here?
[14:08] Hakka
    What a tasty-smelling human...
[14:16] Himari
    Wh-Who are you?
[14:18] Himari
    An ayaka—
[14:21] Hakka
    You'd go well with some fine sake.
[14:25] Hakka
    Let me eat you up.
[14:28] Hakka
    Ahhh!
[14:30] Hakka
    I-I'm all out of sake!
[14:33] Hakka
    Aw, man! Without any sake,
    it's a total waste!
[14:38] Himari
    Um, who are you?
[14:41] Hakka
    The gatekeeper, of course.
[14:44] Himari
    Then please open this gate!
[14:46] Himari
    I need to get through!
[14:48] Hakka
    But why? You're a human.
[14:50] Himari
    I'm looking for people very important to me.
[14:52] Himari
    There's a clue to finding them beyond here.
[14:55] Hakka
    Huh.
[14:57] Hakka
    You must be that rumored Momochi girl.
[15:00] Hakka
    That's a pretty fascinating
    destiny you're carrying there.
[15:03] Himari
    You know who I am?
[15:06] Hakka
    Sure I do. I know a lot around here.
[15:11] Hakka
    Fine, I'll let you through.
[15:14] Himari
    Really?
[15:15] Hakka
    Yeah, but you'll have to pay for passage...
[15:19] Hakka
    I'll be taking your soul.
[15:21] Himari
    N-No way!
[15:22] Hakka
    Where you're headed requires such a price.
[15:27] Himari
    H-Hold it!
[15:31] Himari
    Th-The lantern...
[15:37] Hakka
    Ah, what a rare, delicious flavor.
[15:43] Hakka
    All right, I'll accept that as your offering.
[15:46] Himari
    Why?
[15:48] Hakka
    The winter cherry lantern's light
    gave itself up in your place.
[15:52] Hakka
    It seems your true name is
    rather tied to its fate.
[15:56] Himari
    Huh?
[15:57] Hakka
    Ready? The gate's opening.
[16:16] Himari
    Where are we?
[16:19] Hakka
    The storeroom of all memory,
    the Shelf of Hearts.
[16:24] Himari
    What do you mean by "all memory"?
[16:26] Hakka
    People's destinies, their karma...
    Everything concerning a human lies here.
[16:33] Hakka
    Search the memories of the person
    you seek and you'll be able to find them.
[16:38] Himari
    Really?!
[16:39] Himari
    Please, help me find Aoi...
    I need the drawer for Aoi Nanamori!
SIGN    Aoi Nanamori
[16:55] Himari
    So this is the one...
    Now I just need to look inside.
[17:01] Himari
    Huh? It won't open! It's locked...
[17:07] Himari
    Hey! Wh-What gives?!
[17:11] Hakka
    Maybe what you really desire
    is on a different shelf.
[17:15] Himari
    What do you mean?
[17:17] Hakka
    Look there.
SIGN    Himari Momochi
[17:20] Himari
    Th-This is...
[17:22] Hakka
    That's Himari Momochi's drawer.
[17:25] Hakka
    Everything from your memories
    to your destiny...
[17:27] Hakka
    It's all stored right here.
[17:30] Himari
    You mean it contains everything
    from when I was born until now?
[17:34] Hakka
    Sure does. It even has
    memories of your parents.
[17:39] Himari
    Of my mom and dad...?
[17:42] Hakka
    You could find out
     what your parents were like.
[17:49] Himari
    But right now, I need Aoi's drawer!
[17:53] Himari
    There it is!
[17:57] Himari
    Darn!
[18:11] Hakka
    Don't kid yourself! Why don't
    you accept how you really feel?
[18:15] Himari
    Shut up! Of course I want
    to know about my mom and dad!
[18:18] Himari
    But right now, my top priority is saving Aoi!
[18:21] Himari
    I can look in my box later...
[18:23] Hakka
    Yeah, that's not happening.
[18:26] Hakka
    The Shelf of Hearts will only open once.
[18:29] Hakka
    If you pass it up now, you'll never
     be able to open your own drawer.
[18:34] Himari
    Really? But...
[18:37] Hakka
    Being the gentleman that I am,
    I'll be nice and offer you some advice.
[18:44] Hakka
    The Shelf of Hearts can only
    preserve memories of the living.
[18:49] Himari
    You mean my mom and dad's drawers are...
[18:51] Hakka
    There are no drawers for the dead.
[18:54] Hakka
    Death strips away the memory,
    and all else is erased.
[18:58] Hakka
    I've seen all of your memories so far.
[19:04] Hakka
    Your parents didn't leave
    you anything, did they?
[19:07] Hakka
    Not one article of sentimental value,
    not a clue as to their memory...
[19:10] Hakka
    Not even that will you got was theirs.
[19:14] Hakka
    Your drawer is the only chance you have.
[19:20] Hakka
    Himari Momochi.
[19:22] Hakka
    The memory of your parents
     lies within your drawer.
[19:26] Hakka
    What did they look like?
    What kind of people were they?
[19:29] Hakka
    Their voices, their scents,
     why they named you as they did...
[19:33] Hakka
    You'll find answers to all of your questions.
[19:36] Himari
    Mom... Dad...
[19:40] Hakka
    You still have the chance to embrace
    the love your parents left behind.
[19:46] Hakka
    Isn't that the reason you stayed in
    Momochi House in the first place?
[19:51] Hakka
    Weren't you desperate to know more
     about them and their love?
[19:54] Hakka
    At long last, your wish can be granted. Go on.
SIGN    Aoi Nanamori
[20:15] Hakka
    Is that your final answer?
[20:17] Himari
    Yup.
[20:20] Hakka
    You won't ever know the love
     of your parents this way.
[20:26] Himari
    Even so, I still choose Aoi Nanamori's drawer.
[20:30] Hakka
    So you're throwing away your
    parents for the man you love.
[20:34] Hakka
    If you don't choose them,
    it'll all disappear.
[20:37] Hakka
    You're sentencing your
    parents to a second death.
[20:42] Hakka
    What a heartless girl.
[20:44] Himari
    You're right.
[20:46] Himari
    I know I'm doing something
    terrible to my parents.
[20:52] Himari
    I won't argue if anyone judges me for this.
[20:54] Himari
    But... I have something to prove to them!
[20:57] Himari
    I want to show them their daughter
    protects the people she loves!
[21:02] Himari
    That they left behind something beautiful!
[21:06] Himari
    I'll prove it with my whole life!
[21:08] Himari
    So I choose Aoi Nanamori's box! No regrets!
[21:15] Himari
    The lock!
[21:17] Hakka
    Sounds like you've been approved.
[21:20] Himari
    I can open Aoi's drawer now! Thank you!
[21:26] Hakka
    How hilarious. I like you, Himari Momochi.
[21:40] Hakka
    Let's meet again with some sake next time.
[21:49] Himari
    What a weirdo.
[21:52] Himari
    This is Aoi's drawer...
[21:55] Himari
    All his memories are stored here.
[22:10] Himari
    Are you...?
[22:12] Younger Aoi
    I'm Aoi. Aoi Nanamori.
[23:50] Younger Aoi
    Now, let me tell you of my past.
