[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
    Huh? Who's Aoi?
[21:45] Aoi
    He'll be fine now.
[21:48] Aoi
    You'll be able to forget
    everything for sure this time...
[21:57] Hidaka
    Momochi? You okay?
[21:59] Himari
    Yeah, I'm fine!
[22:03] Himari
    I get how both Hidaka-kun and Aoi feel.
[22:07] Himari
    I know this is how it has to be...
[22:11] Himari
    But are you really okay with this, Aoi?
