[00:06] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    That completes the agreement.
[00:09] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    We'll have forever to get
    to know each other, Ise.
[00:12] Ise
    It started as something out of my hands.
[00:15] Ise
    A pact that had to be made.
[00:17] Ise
    And yet...
[00:20] Aoi
    You mustn't look at me.
SIGN    You mustn't look at me.
SIGN    Episode 4  Crimson Burns the Dark
[01:58] Aoi
    Another seal...
[02:00] Yukari
    We haven't seen any major
    issues as of yet, but...
[02:03] Yukari
    This is the third today alone.
[02:05] Yukari
    Hardly ordinary.
[02:06] Aoi
    All because we let Kasha in Momochi House...
[02:12] Ise
    Kasha...
[02:17] Aoi
    Quick! Get ready to restore the seal!
[02:19] Yukari/Ise
    As you wish!
[02:20] Aoi
    We must nip every risk of danger in the bud.
[02:24] Aoi
    Himari needs me to protect her.
[02:28] Himari
    I'm home!
[02:34] Himari
    Hmm... Something's making me kind of uneasy.
[02:40] Himari
    I'm back!
[02:41] Himari
    Huh? What's wrong with you guys?
[02:44] Lesser yokai
    Himari!
[02:46] Daikon
    Somethin's real fishy!
[02:47] Namazu
    I've got shivers!
[02:49] Himari
    So you guys feel it, too?
[02:51] Himari
    I thought the house seemed weird.
[02:54] Onmoraki
    I'm ashamed!
[02:55] Onmoraki
    To think a great demon—I mean that man
     could shake me like this!
[02:59] Himari
    "That man"?
[03:04] Himari
    You mean Kasha?
[03:07] Taikomochi
    Y-You musn't invoke his name so carelessly!
[03:11] Zushi
    The ayakashi world has a strict hierarchy!
[03:14] Zushi
    I'm sure you humans wouldn't understand.
[03:17] Zushi
    Ancient ayakashi and those of noble
     lineage possess great spiritual powers.
[03:23] Zushi
    Among them, he is in a class of his own.
[03:26] Taikomochi
    We lesser yokai can scarcely say the great
     Kasha-sama's name without trembling!
[03:35] Himari
    Kasha-sama, huh?
[03:37] Zushi
    I-I am a shikigami to Nue-sama!
[03:40] Zushi
    His greatness cannot be rivaled!
[03:43] Zushi
    I-I'm not a-afraid of any K-Kasha...
[03:45] Himari
    Doesn't look like it.
[03:47] Zushi
    I'm not!
[03:48] Himari
    I didn't realize he was such a big deal.
[03:49] Zushi
    Scared, me?! Not a chance!
[03:51] Himari
    Wait, but Yukari-san and Ise
    didn't seem to fear him.
[03:57] Zushi
    How could you be so ignorant?!
[04:00] Himari
    What's that mean?
[04:01] Zushi
    Listen here, you.
[04:02] Zushi
    Yukari-sama and Ise-sama
     are both of high status.
[04:05] Zushi
    You should feel lucky
    to even get to speak with them!
[04:09] Zushi
    Yukari-sama the Mizuchi
    is a great yokai who lives eternal.
[04:13] Zushi
    And while still young, Ise-sama is of
    the noble ayakashi lineage of Shojo!
[04:18] Himari
    I can see Yukari-san being a great yokai...
[04:23] Himari
    But Ise? Some upper-crust nepo baby? No way.
[04:26] Zushi
    How rude!
[04:28] Zushi
    Shojo are remarkable!
[04:30] Zushi
    Their bodies aflame in crimson,
    their roars are heard across seas!
[04:34] Zushi
    They are feared and respected
    as great legendary yokai!
[04:40] Himari
    Great legendary yokai, huh?
[04:42] Himari
    There's still so much I don't know.
[04:46] Himari
    Not just about my parents,
    but also Yukari-san, Ise, and even Aoi.
[04:52] Himari
    So for now...
[04:53] Himari
    Okay!
[05:02] Yukari
    Well done.
[05:04] Ise
    How are you feeling?
[05:05] Aoi
    I'm fine. The individual rifts aren't so bad.
[05:09] Aoi
    Yet that's precisely the part
     that doesn't make sense.
[05:13] Aoi
    Why would he use some trick
     to break seals one at a time?
[05:17] Aoi
    And how did he manage it?
[05:19] Ise
    He's just trying to get under your skin.
[05:21] Yukari
    It's vexing.
[05:23] Yukari
    But for the time being, our only option
    is to check each seal one by one.
[05:27] Aoi
    What could Kasha possibly be up to?
[05:31] Himari
    Aoi!
[05:32] Himari
    I finally found you.
[05:34] Aoi
    What are you doing so far in here?
[05:36] Himari
    I want to ask you about Kasha.
[05:39] Aoi
    Kasha?
[05:41] Himari
    I get that you have your reasons, but...
[05:47] Aoi
    If I tell you, what will
    you do for me in return?
[05:51] Himari
    I-I'm not falling for that today!
[05:54] Himari
    Fine! If Aoi doesn't feel
    like talking, then Ise!
[05:57] Himari
    You're a fire-wielding ayakashi, right?
[06:00] Himari
    So you're basically the same, right?
[06:01] Himari
    You must know something...
[06:04] Ise
    Don't lump me in with him!
[06:06] Ise
    Our flames are totally different colors!
[06:08] Himari
    Oh, right...
[06:09] Ise
    His dark fire virtually consumes everything.
[06:14] Ise
    Mine, on the other hand,
    incinerates anything like hellfire!
[06:18] Ise
    Don't underestimate me, human!
[06:20] Himari
    So you're stronger than him?
[06:22] Ise
    'Course I am, idiot!
[06:24] Ise
    Although...
[06:26] Ise
    I left all that bullshit between ayakashi
    behind when I became Aoi's shikigami.
[06:32] Ise
    After all this time, I'd rather not
    deal with bastards like Kasha.
[06:37] Himari
    Oh, okay...
[06:41] Himari
    But still, Ise, could you incinerate
     that stuff Kasha left?
[06:44] Ise
    You... Did you hear a word I said?!
[06:47] Yukari
    What on earth are you talking about, Himari?
[06:49] Himari
    What? I mean, it's creepy
     and annoying, isn't it?
[06:53] Himari
    Having Kasha's mark or whatever
     all over the house like this...
[06:58] Aoi/Yukari/Ise
    His mark?
[06:59] Himari
    They won't rub off, either.
[07:01] Himari
    They're clearly no ordinary scribbles.
[07:04] Aoi
    Wait, Himari. Do you see something?
[07:07] Himari
    Huh? You guys don't?
[07:10] Himari
    There are black wheels all around the house.
[07:14] Himari
    They're so over the top.
    It just screams "Kasha."
[07:18] Himari
    Look. There's another one.
[07:30] Aoi
    Watch out!
[07:36] Yukari
    That's—
[07:37] Aoi
    It's Gozu! Kasha must've set a trap.
[07:52] Kasha
    I caught you, Nue.
[07:54] Himari
    Aoi!
[07:55] Yukari/Ise
    Nue-sama!
[07:58] Nue
    Stay back.
[08:00] Nue
    You mustn't draw near...
[08:02] Ise
    Those ropes! They're draining his power!
[08:05] Yukari
    So it's a curse directed at Nue-sama!
[08:08] Himari
    Aoi!
[08:14] Ise
    Nue-sama!
[08:15] Yukari
    Halt!
[08:16] Ise
    To hell with that!
    At this rate, Nue-sama will...
[08:18] Yukari
    Kasha's fire absorbs spiritual power.
[08:21] Yukari
    Haphazard attacks
    will only make things worse.
[08:23] Ise
    Fine!
[08:23] Ise
    I'll burn it all down
    with a more powerful flame!
[08:26] Yukari
    Don't, Ise!
[08:29] Ise
    You keep him distracted!
[08:35] Ise
    I'll take care of this side!
[08:36] Yukari
    You mustn't, Ise!
[08:38] Yukari
    If you unleash your power now...
[08:52] Himari
    That's Ise's true form... The Shojo.
[09:00] Himari
    There! He did it!
[09:05] Himari
    Ise? What's wrong?!
[09:08] Yukari
    This is bad.
[09:09] Yukari
    He's losing control!
[09:11] Himari
    Losing control?
[09:12] Yukari
    By our pact as shikigami,
    our spiritual powers are bound to Nue-sama.
[09:17] Yukari
    But with Nue-sama neutralized,
[09:20] Yukari
    our bonds as shikigami have all but severed.
[09:23] Himari
    Then what'll happen to Ise?
[09:25] Yukari
    At this rate, Ise could very well incinerate
    himself and succumb to his own flames.
[09:30] Himari
    No!
[09:40] Himari
    Ise!
[09:50] Ise
    No way can I go down!
[09:52] Ise
    I gotta protect my friends!
[09:55] Ise
    This time for sure!
[09:57] Ise
    So...
[10:18] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Ise-dono!
[10:20] (Flashback) Ise
    C'mon. You got chased down
    by an evil ayakashi again?
[10:23] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Yes, as pathetic as that is.
    Thank you for saving me.
[10:26] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    You were brilliant, Ise-dono!
[10:29] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Evil ayakashi scatter at once
    with a flash of your flames!
[10:32] (Flashback) Ise
    Y-Yeah...
[10:35] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Just what you'd expect from a young
    warrior of the noble Shojo clan!
[10:40] (Flashback) Ise
    I wouldn't know, since I've been exiled.
[10:43] (Flashback) Ise
    They even went out of
    their way to put this on me.
[10:47] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    What's that?
[10:48] (Flashback) Ise
    They cast a curse on it.
[10:50] (Flashback) Ise
    If I unleash my power in the human world,
    my entire body will rot away.
[10:54] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    H-How cruel!
[10:57] (Flashback) Ise
    I was already the black sheep of the clan.
[11:01] (Flashback) Ise
    "A fool who disobeys our proud clan's rules."
[11:04] (Flashback) Ise
    "The disgraceful youngest child." And so on.
[11:10] (Flashback) Ise
    Honestly, I'm glad I got away
    from that suffocating clan!
[11:14] (Flashback) Ise
    I don't have an ounce of regret,
    and I certainly don't miss anyone!
[11:20] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Ise-dono...
[11:22] (Flashback) Ise
    Anyway, I bet you were on your way to that
    spring to steal a peek of the human world.
[11:28] (Flashback) Ise
    I was about to take a walk myself.
     I'll go with you.
[11:30] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Why, yes!
[11:31] (Flashback) Ise
    Seriously, what's so
    entertaining about humans?
[11:35] Ise
    What a weird dude, sticking with someone
    like me even though he's so weak...
[11:41] Ise
    But you know, it wouldn't be so bad
    if things stayed this way,
[11:45] Ise
    just hanging out with him
    and living the chill life.
[11:51] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Ise-dono, could you please
    take me to the human world?
[11:55] (Flashback) Ise
    What's up with you?
[11:56] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    I'd like to see humans more up close.
[11:59] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    They're so interesting!
[12:01] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    My heart warms to see their connections
    with what they call "family" and "friends."
[12:06] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    It makes me happy.
[12:08] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    I would want the same for you, Ise-dono.
[12:10] (Flashback) Ise
    Family and friends, eh?
[12:13] (Flashback) Ise
    What good are those for an ayakashi?
[12:16] (Flashback) Ise
    I don't get it, but...
[12:27] (Flashback) Ise
    Fine.
[12:28] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Thank you so much!
[12:38] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Where are we?
[12:39] (Flashback) Ise
    A house that apparently sits on the border
    between the human world and spiritual realm.
[12:44] (Flashback) Ise
    If we go through here and climb the mountain,
[12:47] (Flashback) Ise
    we'll reach a town in the human world.
[12:49] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    How wonderful!
[12:59] (Flashback) Ise
    I won't let you hurt him.
[13:12] (Flashback) Ise
    Burn in hell!
[13:25] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    I-Ise-dono!
[13:28] (Flashback) Ise
    You're not hurt, are you?
[13:31] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Ise-dono!
[13:42] (Flashback) Ise
    Where am I?
[13:44] (Flashback) Ise
    I can't move...
[13:47] (Flashback) Ise
    Oh, right.
[13:49] (Flashback) Ise
    I broke the rule, which means the curse...
[13:57] (Flashback) Ise
    A human?
[13:58] (Flashback) Ise
    Who the hell are you?
[14:00] (Flashback) Aoi
    I'm Aoi. Some call me the Omamori-sama.
[14:04] (Flashback) Ise
    The Omamori-sama...?
[14:06] (Flashback) Aoi
    If we don't do something,
    you're going to die.
[14:10] (Flashback) Aoi
    But if you become my shikigami,
     you'll be okay.
[14:12] (Flashback) Aoi
    Yukari told me so.
[14:14] (Flashback) Ise
    Why would a human kid save a yokai?
[14:17] (Flashback) Ise
    Are you after my powers?
[14:19] (Flashback) Aoi
    No, your friend asked me to help.
[14:23] (Flashback) Ise
    My friend?
[14:25] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Ise-dono!
[14:29] (Flashback) Ise
    You! What happened to you?
[14:32] (Flashback) Aoi
    He used up all of his power to protect you.
[14:37] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    I'm afraid I've remained pathetic
     until the very end...
[14:42] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    But I'm glad I could see you
    one last time, Ise-dono.
[14:47] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Omamori-sama, I beg you to please save him.
[14:51] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Ise-dono is stronger and
    kinder than anyone I know.
[14:54] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    He's very important to me.
[14:59] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Thank goodness...
[15:02] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Ise-dono, thank you for everything.
[15:05] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    I finally realized...
[15:08] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    The time I spent with you was
     like a warm mid-afternoon dream.
[15:14] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    It was a precious treasure to cherish.
[15:17] (Flashback) Ise
    You...
[15:19] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    Please live on.
[15:22] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    I wish for your eternal happiness.
[15:32] (Flashback) Dog Ayakashi
    My dear friend...
[15:41] Ise
    That day, I lost the first friend I ever had.
[15:46] Ise
    And I swore...
[15:49] Ise
    that I would never do anything
    to lose another friend.
[15:53] Ise
    I'll protect them no matter what!
[15:56] Ise
    Even if that means dying myself!
[16:03] Himari
    Ise! Please stop!
[16:06] Himari
    Your body can't take any more!
[16:08] Yukari
    Ise has completely lost control of himself.
[16:10] Yukari
    He can no longer hear us.
[16:12] Himari
    No... There must be something we can do.
[16:15] Yukari
    If only Nue-sama could regain his power
    and command him...
[16:19] Himari
    Those ropes are preventing that, right?
[16:22] Yukari
    Yes.
[16:23] Yukari
    If Kasha's flames relented for even
     a moment, I could break them.
[16:28] Himari
    You only need a second, then? Got it!
[16:32] Himari
    Yukari-san, I have a favor to ask!
[16:34] Yukari
    Himari?
[16:40] Kasha
    That's like music to my ears.
[16:42] Kasha
    Nue, how beautiful you are
    in pain and suffering.
[16:46] Nue
    Kasha...
[16:48] Kasha
    Say, Nue.
[16:49] Kasha
    You never saw the crests I left, did you?
[16:53] Kasha
    Why do you think that is?
[16:58] Kasha
    I'll tell you.
    It's proof that you're one of us.
[17:03] Kasha
    You've already crossed over
    to the ayakashi side.
[17:07] Kasha
    Now, let us go together,
[17:09] Kasha
    my adorable plaything.
[17:11] Kasha
    I welcome you into the beautiful
    world of darkness.
[17:18] Himari
    Aoi!
[17:29] Nue
    Himari...
[17:31] Himari
    I'm fine. Yukari-san's shield
    is protecting me.
[17:35] Himari
    More importantly...
[17:36] Himari
    Get yourself together!
[17:38] Himari
    Your shikigami... Your family is calling you!
[17:40] Himari
    Can't you hear Ise crying out?
[17:45] Nue
    Ise...
[17:48] Himari
    These stupid ropes!
[17:51] Himari
    Yukari-san! Now!
[17:57] Himari
    Come on. Wake up.
[17:59] Himari
    This way, Aoi.
[18:02] Nue
    Himari...
[18:06] Nue
    I thank you for your help.
[18:10] Himari
    Aoi!
[18:11] Nue
    Heed me, my shikigami.
[18:15] Ise
    That's the voice of my...
[18:17] Nue
    By the order of the Omamori,
    reclaim your name, swift one—Ise!
[18:26] Nue
    I kept you waiting far too long. I apologize.
[18:29] Ise
    Nue-sama...
[18:34] Nue
    Now, Ise, use your true
    flames to burn it down!
[18:55] Himari
    My poor house...
[18:57] Ise
    Them's the breaks.
[18:58] Ise
    I haven't used my full power in a while.
[19:00] Himari
    But my house!
[19:02] Ise
    Damn, put a sock in it already.
[19:04] Ise
    Fine. I'll fix it.
[19:05] Himari
    There you go. That's more like it.
[19:08] Himari
    But don't worry. I'll help you.
[19:11] Himari
    Since we're friends... or maybe family,
[19:15] Himari
    all living under the same roof!
[19:18] Ise
    Shaddup.
[19:20] Yukari
    I'd never have guessed Himari
    could see the hidden crests.
[19:24] Yukari
    And how she fearlessly jumped into
    Kasha's line of fire as a mere human
[19:29] Yukari
    to save you, Aoi...
[19:31] Yukari
    I was surprised, to be honest.
[19:33] Aoi
    Yeah.
[19:34] Aoi
    Himari is much, much stronger
    than I first thought.
[19:39] Aoi
    She's unbound by rules and always teaches me
    what's important while being true to herself.
[19:45] Aoi
    She has something I don't.
[19:48] Yukari
    Does it bother you that you
    couldn't see Kasha's marks?
[19:52] Yukari
    He purposefully planted
     them so you wouldn't—
[19:54] Aoi
    That's not it.
[19:57] Aoi
    You heard what Ise said.
    He's trying to get under my skin.
[20:00] Aoi
    He's taking advantage of my weakness.
[20:03] (Flashback) Kasha
    It's proof that you're one of us.
[20:06] (Flashback) Kasha
    You've already crossed over
    to the ayakashi side.
[20:10] Aoi
    He's always so good at picking at
    what I hate most about myself.
[20:15] Yukari
    Aoi...
[20:26] Himari
    Wh-What's wrong, Aoi?
[20:30] Aoi
    It's nothing.
[20:36] Himari
    Aoi!
[20:37] Aoi
    Sorry, I couldn't help it.
[20:38] Himari
    Help what?
[20:41] Aoi
    Wishing for something.
[20:43] Himari
    I'm asking what!
[20:45] Aoi
    To stay on this side
    a little longer, I guess.
[20:51] Himari
    Gosh, I never get what you're talking about.
[20:56] Yukari
    I wonder...
[20:58] Yukari
    How long we can live like this?
[21:01] Ise
    Beats me.
[21:10] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    That completes the agreement.
[21:13] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    We'll have forever to get
    to know each other, Ise.
[21:16] Ise
    It started as something out of my hands.
[21:18] Ise
    A pact that had to be made.
[21:20] Ise
    And yet...
[21:22] (Flashback) Ise
    So how long's this last? "Forever"?
[21:25] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    Who knows? Until I die, maybe?
[21:31] (Flashback) Ise
    That's it?
[21:33] (Flashback) Ise
    That ain't long at all.
[21:35] (Flashback) Ise
    Humans die before you know it.
[21:39] (Flashback) Younger Aoi
    You're right.
[21:41] Ise
    And yet...
[21:43] Ise
    I won't let go of this bond.
[21:46] Ise
    That's what I swore.
[21:51] Ise
    Who cares about how long it might be?
[21:55] Ise
    I'll stay by Aoi's side forever.
[21:58] Ise
    Same goes for you, right?
[22:00] Yukari
    Yes, I suppose.
[22:04] Ise
    Hey, pal who saved me,
    are you looking down on me?
[22:09] Ise
    I'm here spending another day
    laughing with my best friends.
[23:49] Hidaka
    I can't remember...
[23:52] Hidaka
    Who were you?
