**[00:01] Rain**
Reversion?
**[00:03] Doctor**
Yes.
**[00:04] Doctor**
It happens occasionally to people
with yokai in their blood.
**[00:10] Doctor**
Long ago, we kappa lived in rivers.
**[00:15] Doctor**
In winter, we'd go up into the mountains
**[00:17] Doctor**
and hibernate in holes.
**[00:19] Rain**
Hibernate?
**[00:22] Doctor**
Yes.
**[00:23] Doctor**
That old habit is resurfacing
in your body right now.
**[00:29] Doctor**
But don't worry.
**[00:31] Doctor**
Your symptoms will clear up.
**[00:35] Doctor**
Just take care you don't start hibernating.
**[00:40] Doctor**
Your daughter's body
isn't used to hibernation,
**[00:43] Doctor**
so keep her warm, just as you've
been doing, to be on the safe side.
**[00:48] Minako**
Okay.
**[00:49] Doctor**
You should stay home from school
on cold days, in particular.
**[00:55] Doctor**
And avoid entering cold water.
**[00:59] Rain**
School...
**[00:59] Doctor**
Only keep some in the dish on your head.
**[01:02] Rain**
*Ryo-kun...*
**[02:39] Hiromu**
Rain-chan's out again today.
**[02:42] Kotone**
Well, it's still cold out.
**[02:44] Hiromu**
Want to go visit her again?
**[02:46] Kotone**
Yeah.
**[02:47] Murata**
Hey, Ryo.
**[02:50] Murata**
You think Nakagawa-san's actually been
skipping school because you ignored her?
**[02:55] Ryo**
Huh?
**[02:56] Ryo**
B-But I didn't.
**[02:58] Murata**
I mean, even when she called out to you,
**[03:02] Murata**
you didn't answer her at all.
**[03:05] Murata**
Wasn't that ignoring her?
**[03:14] Ryo**
*I wasn't...*
**[03:16] Ryo**
*I wasn't! I...*
**[03:20] Ryo**
Shoot... I have to talk to her!
**[03:23] Ryo**
I have to apologize to Nakagawa!
**[03:31] Minako**
Coming.
**[03:34] Minako**
Ryo-kun!
**[03:35] Minako**
Hello, there.
**[03:37] Ryo**
H-Hello.
**[03:38] Minako**
Are you here to see Rain?
**[03:41] Ryo**
Uh... yes.
**[03:43] Minako**
I'm sorry.
**[03:45] Minako**
Since it's warm today,
she's out playing with Kotone-chan.
**[03:49] Ryo**
Huh?
**[03:57] (Flashback) Minako**
*I'll let Rain know you were here. Thank you!*
**[04:02] Ryo**
Will I even be able to tell her I'm sorry?
**[04:06] Takumi**
Hey, Ryo!
**[04:09] Takumi**
I thought you weren't gonna show!
**[04:12] Ryo**
Huh?
**[04:12] Takumi**
We said we were gonna shoot
that video today!
**[04:15] Ryo**
Oh...
**[04:17] Ryo**
*I forgot about that.*
**[04:18] Ryo**
Okay, let's do it.
**[04:22] Mutsumi**
Is here okay?
**[04:23] Takumi**
Yeah.
**[04:25] Takumi**
Come running up like
you're bursting with youth.
**[04:27] Nakano**
Should we pose?
**[04:28] Tomoki**
Like this, maybe?
**[04:35] Takumi**
Uh-oh! An accident!
**[04:38] Tomoki**
Crap! That's my brother's ball!
**[04:44] Tomoki**
Oh, good! It's stuck on something!
**[04:47] Utako**
Wait! It's dangerous to go near the river!
**[04:51] Mutsumi**
She's right!
**[04:52] Mutsumi**
The river god is asleep during the winter!
**[04:54] Tomoki**
I know that!
**[04:58] Ryo**
I'll try to get it.
**[05:07] Kotone**
What the heck are they doing?
**[05:17] Rain**
Ryo-kun!
**[05:18] Rain**
Get away!
**[05:19] Ryo**
Huh?
**[05:25] Kotone**
Sano-kun disap—
**[05:27] Rain**
He fell in a hole!
**[05:28] Kotone**
A hole?
**[05:30] Rain**
Ryo-kun!
**[05:36] (Flashback) Doctor**
*And avoid entering cold water.*
**[05:38] Rain**
Ryo-kun!
**[05:39] Tomoki**
Hey! Nakaga—
**[05:44] Rain**
Ryo-kun!
**[06:20] Yuri**
Hey, the kids are all grouped together.
**[06:23] Jiro**
Let's go!
**[06:28] Ryo**
Nakagawa... Why...
**[06:30] Ryo**
Nakagawa...
**[06:32] Kotone**
Where's Rain-chan?!
**[06:34] Jiro**
Kids!
**[06:36] Takumi**
Jiro!
**[06:38] Jiro**
Did something happen?
**[06:41] Ryo**
I-I'm sorry...
**[06:43] Ryo**
Naka... Nakagawa was...
**[06:48] Kotone**
Ryo-kun fell in the river,
and Rain-chan went in to save him, and...
**[06:54] Kotone**
She disappeared.
**[06:58] Jiro**
*I see.*
**[07:00] Jiro**
* Since it's warm today, the dragon god*
* is sleeping more lightly,*
**[07:04] Jiro**
* and every time she awakens,*
* instabilities appear in the boundary.*
**[07:09] Jiro**
I'll take care of this.
**[07:13] Jiro**
Don't worry. I'll save her.
**[07:16] Jiro**
But it's dangerous,
so all of you need to stay away.
**[07:21] Jiro**
All right?
**[07:22] Takumi**
Got it.
**[07:23] Mutsumi**
Jiro!
**[07:24] Jiro**
Mu-chan.
**[07:26] Jiro**
Stay back.
**[07:29] Yuri**
Hey, Jiro.
**[07:31] Yuri**
Don't do anything crazy.
You promised, remember?
**[07:35] Jiro**
Yeah. I know.
**[07:38] Tomoki**
Are you okay, Ryo?
**[07:38] Yuri**
*So tell Mutsumi.*
**[07:39] Ryo**
Yeah...
**[07:45] Jiro**
*Hear me. Hear me, I plead, great dragon god.*
**[07:51] Jiro**
* Has a child of the river*
* wandered into your waters?*
**[07:59] Rain**
*Huh?*
**[08:02] Rain**
*Why... am I in the water?*
**[08:09] Rain**
*Why was I...*
**[08:17] Jiro**
*She heard me!*
**[08:19] Jiro**
*But I need to be careful...*
**[08:21] Jiro**
*or I'll be pulled in, too.*
**[08:24] Takumi**
Jiro'll save her.
**[08:27] Kotone**
Mu-chan...
**[08:32] Kotone**
Mu-chan!
**[08:35] Jiro**
Mu-chan!
**[08:36] Jiro**
You have to get away! Please!
**[08:37] Mutsumi**
No! No! No!
**[08:41] Mutsumi**
I hate it when you're reckless,
**[08:42] Mutsumi**
and I hate it even more
when you do everything alone!
**[08:47] Yuri**
Mutsumi—
**[08:47] Mutsumi**
All of you!
**[08:49] Mutsumi**
Don't just watch!
**[08:50] Mutsumi**
We all have to save her together!
**[08:55] Ryo**
*I...*
**[08:57] Ryo**
*I want...*
**[08:59] Ryo**
*to save Nakagawa, too!*
**[09:02] Ryo**
Nakagawa!
**[09:03] Kotone**
Rain-chan!
**[09:06] Tomoki**
Let's go!
**[09:10] Yuri**
Hold on and don't let go!
**[09:11] Yuri**
And don't go in the river!
**[09:14] Ryo**
Nakagawa...
**[09:16] Ryo**
Nakagawa!
**[10:10] Doctor**
Hey, there.
**[10:12] Doctor**
I see you're awake.
**[10:15] Doctor**
She's managed to escape
her hibernative state.
**[10:18] Doctor**
We can gradually rehabilitate her now.
**[10:22] Junichiro**
All right.
**[10:23] Minako**
Thank you so much!
**[10:26] Maki**
Mikko!
**[10:29] Minako**
Maki-chan...
**[10:31] Maki**
Thanks for contacting me.
I got here as quickly as I could.
***SIGN*** Nakagawa Rain
**[10:35] Maki**
I'm so glad she's okay!
**[10:37] Minako**
Yeah...
**[10:45] Rain**
Ryo-kun!
**[10:47] Ryo**
Naka—
**[10:50] Rain**
R-Ryo-kun, are you okay?!
**[10:55] Ryo**
Nakagawa... You're awake.
**[10:59] Ryo**
Thank goodness!
**[11:09] Ryo**
I just... I don't know...
**[11:11] Ryo**
The week you spent hibernating
felt... really long.
**[11:18] Rain**
Ryo-kun?
**[11:20] Ryo**
When Jiro saved you,
I thought you were dead,
**[11:25] Ryo**
but I realized right away
that you were sleeping.
**[11:29] Ryo**
I was still scared, though.
**[11:32] Ryo**
Wasn't that water really cold?
**[11:38] Rain**
Nah.
**[11:40] Rain**
It didn't bother me at all.
**[11:42] Rain**
I'm a kappa, you know.
**[11:46] Rain**
It felt so nice, I got sleepy
and spaced out.
**[11:51] Rain**
It felt like I was a baby again.
**[11:54] Rain**
I wouldn't have minded melting
into the river right then and there.
**[11:59] Rain**
But then... the god...
**[12:03] Rain**
The dragon god spoke to me.
**[12:07] (Flashback) Dragon God**
Child of the river,
**[12:09] (Flashback) Dragon God**
you have found yourself
in the dreams of my light doze.
**[12:13] (Flashback) Dragon God**
Where have you come from?
**[12:17] (Flashback) Dragon God**
Do not be enticed by
the souls of a time long past.
**[12:21] (Flashback) Dragon God**
Hold firm. Remember.
**[12:24] (Flashback) Dragon God**
You were once my child.
**[12:27] (Flashback) Dragon God**
From whom were you born?
**[12:31] (Flashback) Rain**
*Mom... Dad...*
**[12:34] (Flashback) Ryo**
Nakagawa!
**[12:36] (Flashback) Rain**
*That's right... I...*
**[12:39] (Flashback) Ryo**
Nakagawa!
**[12:44] (Flashback) Dragon God**
This is not your home to return to.
**[12:47] (Flashback) Dragon God**
Now, go.
**[12:56] Rain**
I heard your voice.
**[12:59] Rain**
I'm so happy to see you again.
**[13:04] Ryo**
M-Me, too...
**[13:07] Ryo**
That's right! I have to apologize to you!
**[13:10] Rain**
Huh? Don't worry about
what happened at the river!
**[13:13] Ryo**
Not about that. I, uh...
**[13:24] Tazenbo**
Mu-chan!
**[13:27] Tazenbo**
You came all the way out here on your bike?
**[13:30] Mutsumi**
Yep. I did an athletic course.
**[13:33] Tazenbo**
The sun's going down soon.
**[13:35] Tazenbo**
Want a ride back?
**[13:37] Mutsumi**
You sure?
**[13:38] Tazenbo**
We can put your bike in the back.
**[13:42] Jiro**
Get in this side.
**[13:55] Mutsumi**
Hey...
**[13:56] Jiro**
I'm sorry, Mu-chan.
**[13:59] Jiro**
I know I worried you a lot.
**[14:01] Jiro**
I'm really sorry.
**[14:05] Mutsumi**
Not fair!
**[14:07] Mutsumi**
I wanted to tell you I was sorry, too!
**[14:10] Mutsumi**
For hitting you and saying I hated you...
**[14:13] Mutsumi**
That's exactly what's wrong with you, Jiro!
**[14:16] Mutsumi**
Do you have to try so hard by
yourself? Like at the river?
**[14:22] Mutsumi**
Am I not allowed to help you?
**[14:31] Jiro**
Mu-chan, why don't we make a promise again?
**[14:36] Jiro**
Promise you won't be reckless
when you don't have anyone to protect.
**[14:41] Jiro**
And I...
**[14:44] Jiro**
I won't be reckless, either.
And I won't go away.
**[14:49] Jiro**
I promise we'll help each other
by doing whatever we can.
**[14:55] Jiro**
Will you believe me?
**[15:01] Mutsumi**
I wonder if I should...
**[15:07] Mutsumi**
Oh, I guess so!
**[15:09] Mutsumi**
I'll believe you! Promise!
**[15:13] Jiro**
Promise.
**[15:19] Mutsumi**
You better be hearing this, gramps.
**[15:21] Tazenbo**
Yep. Loud and clear.
**[15:23] Tazenbo**
I'm your witness.
**[15:30] Mutsumi**
Hey, Jiro.
**[15:32] Mutsumi**
If there's anything bothering
you, talk to me, okay?
**[15:34] Jiro**
Huh?
**[15:35] Mutsumi**
We help each other! I'll hear you out!
**[15:38] Jiro**
Uh... Nothing right now, really...
**[15:48] Jiro**
Okay.
**[15:49] Jiro**
Will you hear me out, then?
**[15:53] Mutsumi**
Okay!
**[16:02] Jiro**
What do you think I should do
to forget something I want to forget?
**[16:08] Mutsumi**
Something you want to forget? Something bad?
**[16:11] Jiro**
Is it... something bad?
**[16:16] Jiro**
I'm not... really sure.
**[16:18] Mutsumi**
It's not a bad thing?
**[16:22] Mutsumi**
Why do you need to forget it, then?
**[16:26] Mutsumi**
It's something you want to remember, right?
**[16:31] Mutsumi**
So what is it that you can't forget?
**[16:35] Jiro**
A long time ago,
**[16:37] Jiro**
someone told me to forget about them,
**[16:40] Jiro**
because they didn't want me to remember.
**[16:44] Jiro**
So I...
**[16:45] Mutsumi**
That's awful!
**[16:47] Mutsumi**
That's just wrong!
**[16:49] Mutsumi**
I mean, you can't forget them, right?
**[16:51] Mutsumi**
You want to remember, don't you?
**[16:53] Mutsumi**
So I don't think you
have to do what they said!
**[17:00] (Flashback) Haru**
I want... you... to...
**[17:02] (Flashback) Haru**
forget... about... me...
**[17:07] Jiro**
*You know I can't do that.*
**[17:11] Jiro**
*Even if it's what you want...*
**[17:17] Jiro**
*I just can't.*
**[17:31] Jiro**
*I don't want to forget.*
**[17:40] Mutsumi**
Jiro?
**[17:48] Mutsumi**
Need a handkerchief?
**[17:53] Mutsumi**
I'm sorry, Jiro.
**[17:55] Jiro**
No, it's not that.
**[17:59] Jiro**
Thanks.
**[18:00] Mutsumi**
Sure.
**[18:04] Mutsumi**
By the way, Jiro, are you gonna replace
the barrier on the great cedar?
**[18:09] Jiro**
Yeah. Do you want to come with me?
**[18:12] Mutsumi**
Sure.
**[18:22] Jiro**
Okay, I'll put the new barrier on first.
**[18:27] Kozue**
No matter how much I clean,
more things show up.
**[18:31] Kozue**
I need to get these all put away
before Mu-chan comes home.
**[18:35] Kozue**
Oh?
***SIGN*** To
Jiro
**[18:42] Jiro**
Next, I'll transfer the protective
power over from the old barrier.
**[18:47] Jiro**
Here I go.
**[18:56] Mutsumi**
I know this wind.
**[19:01] Mutsumi**
I felt it back then.
**[19:14] Jiro**
Thank you for letting
us borrow your strength.
**[19:19] Jiro**
Mu-chan.
**[19:20] Jiro**
Would you tie the charm onto it?
**[19:25] Mutsumi**
Yeah!
***SIGN*** Dear
Jiro,
**[19:31] Kozue**
It's Mom's writing...
**[19:34] Haru**
*Dear Jiro.*
**[19:37] Haru**
* I'm sure you were quite surprised*
* to receive this letter.*
**[19:43] Haru**
* I made up my mind to write it in order*
* to convey only to you*
**[19:47] Haru**
*the things I have kept within all this time.*
**[19:54] Haru**
*One day, when I am near death,*
**[19:57] Haru**
* I suspect that I will ask you*
* to forget about me.*
**[20:05] Haru**
*But I know you cannot do that,*
**[20:09] Haru**
*because I myself could not.*
**[20:14] Haru**
*But because you are so kind,*
**[20:17] Haru**
* you will surely do your best*
* to grant my wish.*
**[20:22] Haru**
* Perhaps this letter is my attempt to*
* atone for my sins against you.*
**[20:29] Haru**
*Please forgive me for being so selfish.*
**[20:33] Haru**
*From Haru.*
**[20:39] Haru**
*The truth is...*
**[20:41] Haru**
*I want you to refuse my request.*
**[20:44] Haru**
* I want you to scold me*
* for asking something so cruel.*
**[20:47] Haru**
*I want to hear what's in your heart.*
**[20:52] Haru**
* If possible, I want to*
* be by your side forever.*
***SIGN*** I want you to
refuse my request.
I want you to scold me
for asking something
so cruel.
I want to hear
what's in your heart.
If possible, I want to
be by your side forever.
**[21:01] Kozue**
I see.
**[21:03] Kozue**
Both Mom and Jiro...
**[21:07] Kozue**
were never able to speak the truth.
**[21:13] Kozue**
I see.
**[22:56] Mutsumi**
God, please watch over us,
**[22:59] Mutsumi**
so that we can all live
peaceful, healthy lives,
