[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.
