**[00:02] Himari**
What do we have for first period today again?
**[00:18] Himari**
U-um, excuse me...
**[00:24] Hidaka**
Stay away from me.
**[00:27] Hidaka**
You'll catch a curse.
**[00:37] Aoi**
You mustn't look at me.
***SIGN*** You mustn't look at me.
***SIGN*** Episode 5 Inari Sunset
**[02:14] Classmate A**
He came today?
**[02:15] Classmate B**
I'm still scared of him.
**[02:17] Classmate C**
Hidaka the cursed...
**[02:18] Himari**
He's cursed?
**[02:21] Madarame**
Morning, Himari!
**[02:23] Himari**
Rui! Morning!
**[02:24] Himari**
Hey, who's that?
**[02:27] Madarame**
Oh, Hayato Hidaka.
**[02:29] Madarame**
Is this the first you've seen of him?
**[02:32] Himari**
Hidaka-kun...?
**[02:33] Iizuka**
He doesn't come to school much,
and he's... not the most approachable.
**[02:38] Madarame**
Definitely got big "leave me alone" vibes.
**[02:41] Iizuka**
Yeah. Plus, there's that weird rumor...
**[02:44] Himari**
What rumor?
**[02:45] Iizuka**
They say if you get near Hidaka-kun,
you'll get sick or hurt.
**[02:49] Himari**
I had no idea...
**[02:51] Iizuka**
Yeah. It's just a rumor, though.
**[02:54] Senno**
I heard Mr. Hidaka used to be very outgoing.
**[02:59] Senno**
But his personality suddenly changed
and he started saying odd things
**[03:03] Senno**
about a childhood friend who disappeared.
**[03:05] Himari**
A childhood friend?
**[03:07] Iizuka**
That's why everyone says
Hidaka-kun's cursed.
**[03:10] Madarame**
But it's all just a stupid rumor.
**[03:13] Senoo**
It doesn't help that Mr. Hidaka's family
is known to be a tsukimono clan.
**[03:18] Himari**
A tsukimono clan? What's that?
**[03:21] Senoo**
Perhaps you should ask Nachi-sensei
for more information.
**[03:26] Senoo**
He may teach classical Japanese,
**[03:28] Senoo**
but he's also very knowledgeable about
local culture, history, and folklore.
**[03:32] Senoo**
I visit him sometimes to pick his brain.
**[03:35] Himari**
Wow, who knew?
**[03:37] Madarame**
It's still nothing more than a rumor, but...
**[03:40] Iizuka**
Be careful, Himari-chan.
**[03:42] Himari**
Thanks. I will.
**[03:44] Nachi**
Oh, Hidaka-kun?
**[03:47] Nachi**
He doesn't come to school very often.
**[03:50] Nachi**
I've been worried about him, too.
**[03:52] Nachi**
So I'm glad you're not afraid of him
and would like to get to know him.
**[03:58] Himari**
But what's all this about a "tsukimono clan"?
**[04:04] Nachi**
Simply put, they're families who employ
ayakashi from generation and generation.
**[04:12] Nachi**
There are many types to contract with,
including foxes, dogs, snakes, and much more.
**[04:17] Nachi**
Most tsukimono clans are wealthy families,
**[04:21] Nachi**
and they're often despised
and discriminated against.
**[04:26] Himari**
Despised? Why is that?
**[04:28] Nachi**
There are lots of reasons,
but the predominant cause is human jealousy.
**[04:33] Nachi**
And perhaps fear of the unknown.
**[04:37] Nachi**
People don't necessarily always understand
those with extraordinary talent.
**[04:43] Nachi**
Fortunately, the Hidakas weren't subjected
to such discrimination that I'm aware of.
**[04:49] Nachi**
They had excellent advisors
from the Momochi family.
**[04:53] Himari**
What?! Y-You mean my family?
**[04:55] Nachi**
Apparently, the Momochis acted
as spiritual mediators of a sort,
**[05:00] Nachi**
helping families like the Hidakas and others.
**[05:04] Nachi**
I hear the previous heads of the Momochi
family were a very kind married couple.
**[05:10] Nachi**
I'm sure the Hidakas
counted on them a great deal.
**[05:13] Himari**
The previous heads? They must have been my...
**[05:16] Himari**
* Maybe I can learn more about my parents*
* if I visit Hidaka-kun's house.*
**[05:22] Nachi**
That's about the extent of what I know.
**[05:27] Himari**
Thank you so much!
**[05:29] Himari**
I'll try going to visit Hidaka-kun.
**[05:34] Himari**
So this is where Hidaka-kun lives?
**[06:05] Hidaka**
Who's there?!
**[06:08] Hidaka**
It's you... from this morning.
**[06:11] Himari**
I'm Momochi. Himari Momochi.
**[06:13] Hidaka**
What're you doing at my house?
**[06:15] Himari**
I came because I heard your
family and mine were close.
**[06:20] Himari**
Would you happen to know
anything about my parents,
**[06:23] Himari**
the previous heads of Momochi House?
**[06:26] Hidaka**
No clue.
**[06:30] Himari**
I see. Then what's that darkness—
**[06:33] Hidaka**
I told you. Come near me,
and you'll be cursed.
**[06:36] Hidaka**
Get out of here.
**[06:47] Himari**
* It sucks that I didn't learn*
* anything about my parents.*
**[06:52] Himari**
*But could Hidaka-kun's curse be...*
**[06:55] Tamamo**
Begone.
**[06:57] Tamamo**
Don't get any closer to Hidaka.
I won't let him get away.
**[07:08] Himari**
Wh-Who are you?
**[07:17] Aoi**
What's the matter, Himari?
**[07:21] Aoi**
You seem a bit out of it.
**[07:23] Yukari**
Is the food not to your liking?
**[07:25] Himari**
Th-That's not it.
**[07:27] Himari**
Sorry. There was just something on my mind.
**[07:32] Himari**
I met a mysterious child
today wearing a fox mask.
**[07:36] Aoi**
An ayakashi?
**[07:37] Himari**
I think he's connected
to one of my classmates.
**[07:41] Himari**
A boy named Hidaka-kun.
**[07:44] Aoi**
You mean Hayato Hidaka?
**[07:49] Himari**
Aoi, you know Hidaka-kun?
**[07:52] Aoi**
Yes, I do.
**[07:56] Aoi**
He was my childhood friend.
**[07:59] Himari**
Then his childhood friend
who disappeared was...
**[08:02] Aoi**
Yes, that was probably me.
**[08:05] Aoi**
Not that I thought he'd remember...
**[08:11] Himari**
*That's right.*
**[08:12] Himari**
* No one else remembers Aoi now*
* that he's the Omamori-sama,*
**[08:16] Himari**
*even though he remembers them.*
**[08:18] Himari**
If someone does remember you,
would you want to meet them?
**[08:23] Aoi**
I'm fine without all that now.
**[08:26] Aoi**
I live in a different world, so...
**[08:35] Aoi**
Himari? What's wrong?
**[08:38] Aoi**
You seem sad.
**[08:42] Himari**
No, it's nothing.
**[08:59] Hidaka**
I can't remember...
**[09:01] Hidaka**
Who were you?
**[09:12] Himari**
Morning, Hidaka-kun.
**[09:13] Hidaka**
You...
**[09:14] Himari**
My name isn't "you." It's Himari Momochi.
**[09:18] Hidaka**
I thought I told you to stay away from me.
**[09:22] Himari**
'Cause I'll be cursed?
**[09:26] Himari**
I'm fine. I have a pretty high
tolerance for that stuff.
**[09:29] Hidaka**
This isn't some joke.
**[09:31] Himari**
I know you're avoiding people so the curse
doesn't bring bad things upon them.
**[09:37] Himari**
It's very kind.
**[09:40] Himari**
After I left your house yesterday,
I met a kid in a fox mask.
**[09:46] Hidaka**
You can see him?!
**[09:48] Himari**
Yeah, I think he's an ayakashi.
**[09:50] Himari**
Seemed kind of dangerous, actually.
**[09:53] Hidaka**
Then you get it. Now leave me alone.
**[09:57] Himari**
But now that I've seen him,
I can't pretend I haven't.
**[10:03] Himari**
Let's solve this together.
Don't isolate yourself.
**[10:10] Hidaka**
Until my grandpa's generation,
my family could apparently see *things*.
**[10:16] Hidaka**
Now no one can.
**[10:18] Hidaka**
Still, I feel like something's possessing me.
**[10:22] Himari**
Any idea what it could be?
**[10:25] Hidaka**
I made a deal...
**[10:27] Himari**
A deal?
**[10:34] Hidaka**
Look.
**[10:35] Himari**
A four-leaf clover? How cute.
**[10:38] Hidaka**
My friend gave it to me as a charm.
**[10:41] Hidaka**
I used to be really close with someone...
**[10:44] Hidaka**
Or, at least, I think I was.
**[10:47] Hidaka**
I can't remember his face or name.
**[10:50] Hidaka**
He was super smart.
We were absolutely nothing alike,
**[10:54] Hidaka**
but we were inseparable. We spent
all our time together, and yet...
**[10:58] Hidaka**
He suddenly began avoiding me.
**[11:01] Himari**
Did you guys have a fight?
**[11:03] Hidaka**
No.
**[11:04] Hidaka**
But I could tell he wanted
nothing to do with me.
**[11:08] Hidaka**
I felt like he'd cast me aside.
**[11:11] Hidaka**
So I had the idea to give him
a matching four-leaf clover charm.
**[11:20] Hidaka**
But look as I might, I couldn't find one.
**[11:22] Hidaka**
That's when I heard
a voice for the first time.
**[11:27] (Flashback) Tamamo**
Want me to grant you your wish?
**[11:31] (Flashback) Tamamo**
Give me what you treasure most
and I'll make your wish come true.
**[11:42] (Flashback) Tamamo**
Very good. That finalizes our agreement!
**[11:55] Hidaka**
I thought we could finally be friends again...
**[11:59] Hidaka**
But then he vanished, like he never existed.
**[12:05] Hidaka**
No one remembers his face or name!
**[12:09] Hidaka**
Not even me...
**[12:10] Hidaka**
I've done something terrible!
**[12:13] Hidaka**
I traded away my best friend just
to grant some stupid, trivial wish!
**[12:19] Hidaka**
I'll never be able to forgive myself!
**[12:23] Hidaka**
I can't even apologize or make it up to him.
**[12:27] Hidaka**
There's nothing I can do!
**[12:29] Himari**
Hidaka-kun...
**[12:30] Hidaka**
So what's happening
to me now is my own fault.
**[12:33] Hidaka**
He probably cursed me.
**[12:35] Himari**
You're wrong!
**[12:37] Himari**
Your childhood friend isn't who cursed you.
**[12:41] Himari**
Hidaka-kun, your friend didn't disappear.
**[12:44] Himari**
He's still with us... I believe that.
**[12:47] Hidaka**
Momochi...
**[12:49] Himari**
Let's lift the curse together, Hidaka-kun.
**[12:57] Aoi**
I see. So in Hayato's eyes, I...
**[13:00] Himari**
Yeah. He can't recall your name of face,
**[13:03] Himari**
but he hasn't completely forgotten you either.
**[13:07] Aoi**
Then I suppose we have no choice.
**[13:08] Aoi**
Let's see what we can do.
**[13:10] Himari**
Thanks!
**[13:11] Aoi**
The main misunderstanding is that Hayato
thinks I disappeared because of him.
**[13:17] Aoi**
The day I wandered into Momochi House
must have been the same day
**[13:23] Aoi**
he made that wish at the shrine.
**[13:26] Aoi**
That's what complicated the whole situation.
**[13:29] Himari**
And the lingering curse is still
causing trouble for him to this day.
**[13:34] Aoi**
The ayakashi you saw in the fox mask
must be the head of that shrine.
**[13:40] Aoi**
The fox spirit that's watched over
the Hidaka family is behind this.
**[13:44] Himari**
Why would the fox spirit watching over
his family curse Hidaka-kun?
**[13:50] Aoi**
Probably because no one in the Hidaka family
knows about the fox spirit anymore.
**[13:56] Aoi**
Tsukimono clans are families that form
agreements with ayakashi to employ them.
**[14:00] Aoi**
But with that comes the difficult
task of handling them.
**[14:03] Aoi**
If not worshipped properly,
they will bring the family misfortune.
**[14:07] Himari**
But Hidaka-kun's family can't
see ayakashi anymore.
**[14:12] Aoi**
It makes no difference.
**[14:14] Aoi**
Ayakashi don't care about what's
convenient for humans or how they feel.
**[14:19] Himari**
That's why it cursed Hidaka-kun...
**[14:22] Aoi**
In exchange for what he "treasured most."
**[14:27] Aoi**
To lift the curse,
**[14:28] Aoi**
we must properly sever the contract
between the fox spirit and Hidaka family.
**[14:33] Aoi**
And to make it happen,
I'm going to need your help, Himari.
**[14:39] Himari**
I promise you'll feel better soon.
**[14:42] Himari**
Hang in there a bit longer!
**[14:43] Hidaka**
Momochi, what are you doing?
**[14:45] Himari**
Apparently, we need
to clean the shrine first.
**[14:48] Himari**
Then thank the spirits for all
they've done over the years.
**[14:52] Himari**
Okay, now comes the main part.
**[14:55] Himari**
Ready?
**[15:05] Himari**
*So they're all fox spirits?*
**[15:07] Himari**
*There's so many...*
**[15:08] Hidaka**
What was that gust just now?
**[15:10] Fox spirit (group)**
Hidaka!
**[15:11] Fox spirit (group)**
You trapped us in this shrine
and never worshipped us...
**[15:15] Fox spirit (group)**
We shan't forgive you.
**[15:16] Himari**
Fox spirits!
**[15:17] Himari**
Please hear us out!
**[15:19] Hidaka**
Momochi?
**[15:20] Fox spirit (group)**
Who are you?
**[15:22] Himari**
I'm Himari Momochi.
**[15:24] Fox spirit (group)**
Momochi? From Momochi House?
**[15:27] Himari**
I'm sorry for everything.
**[15:29] Himari**
For keeping you here and
abandoning you all these years.
**[15:34] Fox spirit (group)**
That's right.
**[15:35] Fox spirit (group)**
The Hidaka family suddenly
stopped speaking with us...
**[15:39] Fox spirit (group)**
Why?
**[15:40] Himari**
That's because...
**[15:42] Himari**
There's no one left in the family
who can see you.
**[15:48] Himari**
So... come with me!
**[15:52] Himari**
There are others like you at my house.
**[15:55] Himari**
I'm sure you'll have fun there.
**[15:56] Fox spirit (group)**
Hidaka can no longer see us?
**[16:03] Fox spirit (group)**
And you're... the only one left who can?
**[16:06] Himari**
Yeah.
**[16:11] Fox spirit (group)**
Very well. We shall go with you.
**[16:14] Himari**
Great!
**[16:15] Fox spirit (group)**
But our eldest brother...
**[16:17] Himari**
Your brother? That boy!
**[16:19] Tamamo**
I won't stand for this, Hidaka.
**[16:22] Tamamo**
You can't see me anymore?
**[16:25] Tamamo**
Then I'll eat the Momochi girl
and become a great ayakashi!
**[16:27] Tamamo**
I'll show you how powerful I can be!
**[16:34] Fox spirit (group)**
No, Brother!
**[16:36] Tamamo**
You all! What are you...
**[16:37] Fox spirit (group)**
This girl is the only person we can depend on!
**[16:41] Fox spirit (group)**
So we—
**[16:42] Tamamo**
Out of my way!
**[16:47] Fox Spirit**
Run, Momochi girl!
**[16:49] Himari**
But...
**[16:50] Fox Spirit**
We can't hold him long! Go!
**[16:52] Himari**
Okay! Let's go!
**[16:53] Hidaka**
R-Right.
**[16:56] Tamamo**
I won't let you get away!
**[16:57] Tamamo**
No matter what, Hidaka!
**[17:02] Himari**
We're almost there!
**[17:03] Hidaka**
Right!
**[17:04] Himari**
That boy said he would eat me
to show you how powerful he can be.
**[17:10] Himari**
He must believe that'll make
you finally notice him.
**[17:16] Himari**
He's mainly after me, so...
**[17:19] Himari**
You don't have to come. It's too dangerous.
**[17:22] Hidaka**
This was my problem to begin with.
**[17:24] Hidaka**
I can't let you carry that burden alone.
**[17:26] Hidaka**
Besides...
**[17:27] Hidaka**
I don't want to lose another friend!
**[17:30] Himari**
Hidaka-kun...
**[17:32] Tamamo**
Found you!
**[17:35] Hidaka**
The fox spirit is here, isn't he?!
**[17:37] Tamamo**
Momochi girl and Hidaka...
**[17:39] Tamamo**
I won't let you get away!
**[17:41] Himari**
Hurry!
**[17:43] Tamamo**
I'll eat you and gain power!
**[17:46] Tamamo**
That way, Hidaka will...
**[17:49] Himari**
Please! Let Hidaka-kun go!
**[17:52] Himari**
He can't be with you anymore!
**[17:54] Tamamo**
Quiet! I won't hear it!
**[17:56] Tamamo**
What could you possibly know?!
**[18:05] Nue**
You've entered my sacred jurisdiction.
**[18:09] Hidaka**
That's... the fox spirit.
**[18:11] Himari**
You can see him, Hidaka-kun?
**[18:13] Hidaka**
Yeah.
**[18:14] Himari**
It must be because we're
in Momochi House...
**[18:17] Tamamo**
Y-You there...
**[18:19] Nue**
"You there"?
**[18:20] Nue**
That's not how you address
the master of Momochi House.
**[18:23] Nue**
You must learn some manners.
**[18:28] Hidaka**
That's...
**[18:31] Himari**
Aoi?!
**[18:33] Tamamo**
I'm not done yet...
**[18:35] Tamamo**
I-I can still show Hidaka...
**[18:37] Nue**
You have plenty of spirit, little fox.
**[18:41] Nue**
Cool your temper, and—
**[18:44] Hidaka**
Wait!
**[18:46] Hidaka**
Please, let me talk with him!
**[18:53] Hidaka**
I'm sorry, fox spirit.
**[18:55] Hidaka**
For not seeing you all these years.
**[18:57] Tamamo**
H-Hidaka...
**[18:59] Hidaka**
That day, you granted me my wish...
**[19:03] Hidaka**
It was to help me
sense your presence, wasn't it?
**[19:11] Hidaka**
I think I understand how you
feel, at least a little.
**[19:16] Hidaka**
You wanted to show me that I need you, right?
**[19:20] Hidaka**
That you didn't want to leave my side...
**[19:23] Hidaka**
I'm really sorry.
**[19:27] Tamamo**
You wouldn't answer me,
no matter how much I called.
**[19:32] Tamamo**
I was lonely. That's why I
thought I needed more power.
**[19:36] Hidaka**
Yeah.
**[19:37] Tamamo**
But it's fine...
**[19:39] Tamamo**
Deep down, I already knew
**[19:41] Tamamo**
that I needed to stop.
**[19:43] Tamamo**
I'm sorry, too.
**[19:45] Tamamo**
I'll give you back your treasure.
**[19:54] Hidaka**
That's right...
**[19:55] Hidaka**
My friend's name was Aoi.
**[20:00] Hidaka**
Wh-What's this?
**[20:01] Nue**
That was a mere remnant.
**[20:03] Hidaka**
What?
**[20:05] Nue**
The fox spirit never took your friend
as payment for your wish.
**[20:10] Nue**
He merely took what remained.
**[20:12] Nue**
Such a little fox does not possess the
power to snatch people and erase memories.
**[20:18] Nue**
You are not at fault for your
friend's disappearance.
**[20:21] Hidaka**
Then where did Aoi...
**[20:24] Nue**
He no longer belongs to the human world.
**[20:30] Hidaka**
Then I'll go where he is.
**[20:35] Hidaka**
I don't want to live with the burden
of what I've lost anymore.
**[20:40] Hidaka**
Please, I'm begging you.
**[20:42] Hidaka**
Take me to where he is.
**[20:50] Nue**
I'm afraid that's not possible.
**[20:57] Himari**
Hidaka-kun!
**[20:59] Aoi**
I put him to sleep. That's all.
**[21:02] Himari**
Will Hidaka-kun be okay?
**[21:05] Aoi**
He'll be fine now.
**[21:09] Aoi**
You sure grew up on the outside.
**[21:14] Aoi**
Hayato...
**[21:21] Himari**
Good morning, Hidaka-kun!
**[21:23] Hidaka**
Morning, Momochi.
**[21:25] Himari**
Hey... Are you okay?
**[21:27] Hidaka**
Yeah, all better.
**[21:28] Himari**
Excellent! Glad to hear it.
**[21:31] Hidaka**
You were a big help
with the whole fox spirit thing.
**[21:34] Hidaka**
Thanks.
**[21:35] Himari**
Now you won't have to worry
about the curse or Aoi.
**[21:40] Hidaka**

**[21:45] Aoi**
*He'll be fine now.*
**[21:48] Aoi**
* You'll be able to forget*

**[21:57] Hidaka**
Momochi? You okay?
**[21:59] Himari**
Yeah, I'm fine!
**[22:03] Himari**

**[22:07] Himari**
*I know this is how it has to be...*
