[00:01] Kiriha
    This tactic won't work anymore. What now?
[00:06] Kazuya
    Your projection!
[00:14] Kiriha
    Fool! Why didn't you defend
    with a Shield Weave?!
[00:19] Sunao
    You're mine!
[00:20] Sunao
    They're in my sword's range now!
[00:23] Sunao
    Try Shield Weaving or Wall Weaving this!
[00:26] Kazuya
    I won't hesitate to use it...
[00:27] Kazuya
    But I won't let Kiriha-san get hurt, either!
[00:30] Kazuya

    It doesn't matter!

[02:18] Honoka
    He redirected it!
[02:19] Kukuri
    Try blockin' with an obi,
    and a sword will slice clean through.
[02:22] Kukuri
    But that ain't the case with redirectin'!
[02:24] Sunao
    My full-force attack was
    shut down... and by a mere obi!
[02:27] Kotetsu
    Sunao-sama! Here they come!
[02:33] Sunao
    My water doll can't take much more!
[02:38] Kazuya
    She's retreating?
[02:39] Kiriha
    She's made room to catch her breath!
[02:41] Kiriha
    Don't give her the chance!
[02:43] ---
    Right!
[02:45] Sunao
    Don't get so cocky!
[02:50] Kotetsu
    Sunao-sama! You must save
    your spiritual energy—
[02:52] Sunao
    Shut up!
[02:57] Sunao
    A projection...
[02:58] Sunao
    I can't do any damage like this!
[03:01] Sunao
    In that case...
[03:02] Sunao
    off the parry...
[03:03] Sunao
    Empty Blade!
[03:08] Kazuya
    A counter...
[03:09] Kiriha
    We can't take initiative
    from a distance anymore!
[03:17] Kukuri
    They've stopped.
[03:18] HOnoka
    Hmm. Whoever moves first
    is at a disadvantage, now.
[03:22] Kiriha
    We have two obi at our disposal right now.
[03:24] Kiriha
    We can block attacks, but not strike back.
[03:26] Kiriha
    Staying defensive is wisest.
[03:28] Sunao
    Ranged attacks won't work anymore.
[03:30] Sunao
    And they won't come after me,
    since attacking leaves them open.
[03:34] Sunao
    Getting within the sword's
    range is my only hope.
[03:37] Sunao
    But my water doll can't take much more.
[03:40] Sunao
    If I take any damage while
    closing in, I'll lose.
[03:45] Honoka
    It's over.
[03:47] Kukuri
    Giving up already? That ain't like you.
[03:49] Honoka
    The more they dawdle,
    the more the obi recovers.
[03:53] Honoka
    Once they're back to three obi,
    it's game over.
[03:55] Kukuri
    Didn't Sunao withstand your big one
     during the regional god trial?
[04:00] Kukuri
    Ain't she got some
    trump card to turn the tables?
[04:02] Honoka
    She does, in a sense.
[04:04] Honoka
    The technique with which
    Sunao staved off Skyfire.
[04:06] Kukuri
    Skyfire?! Were you testin' her
     or murderin' her?!
SIGN    Skyfire
[04:09] Honoka
    Well, I had a hunch Sunao could take it.
[04:12] Honoka
    And the fact is, she did!
[04:14] Honoka
    That technique is plenty potent
[04:17] Honoka
    but only works within the sword's range.
[04:20] Honoka
    And with how things stand,
    Sunao won't be able to get them to close in.
[04:26] Kukuri
    I wouldn't be so sure.
[04:30] Kazuya
    I can't.
[04:31] Kiriha
    But why?!
[04:32] Kiriha
    We're sure to win if we
    stay on the defensive!
[04:35] Kazuya
    That isn't good enough.
[04:37] Kazuya
    We can't truly win unless
    we face Sunao-san at her best!
[04:41] Kiriha
    Kazuya... Why does it matter so to you?
[04:44] Kazuya
    Tsugumomo are more than just tools.
[04:47] Kazuya
    The only way we can make her
    understand that is by winning!
[04:51] Kazuya
    By showing her our all!
[04:55] Kiriha
    Very well. Understood!
[04:56] Kiriha
    Let's give her everything we have!
[04:59] ---
    Right!
[05:02] Kotetsu
    They're closing in on us?!
[05:04] Kotetsu
    But if they'd stayed away and
    recovered, they'd have won!
[05:07] Sunao
    No, I get it! I know what he's thinking!
[05:11] Sunao
    Victory means triumphing
    over your opponent's all!
[05:13] Sunao
    That's it, isn't it?
[05:16] Sunao
    Fine then,
[05:17] Sunao
    I'll take you on!
[05:20] Honoka
    Kotetsu can do more than project
    blades of spiritual energy.
[05:24] Honoka
    He can also shroud the
    blade in spiritual energy
[05:28] Honoka
    to reduce resistance and boost its speed.
[05:31] Honoka
    Show them, Sunao.
[05:32] ---
    The technique that overcame Skyfire—
    your secret strike, Winged Cutter!
[05:36] Kukuri
    When a tsukumogami overwhelms its wielder,
    it's called tsukumo-possession.
[05:41] Kukuri
    A tsukumo-possessed human
    gains incredible power,
[05:45] Kukuri
    at the cost of losing control
    being physically drained.
[05:49] Kukuri
    But if the two are in perfect harmony
    and share a deep bond,
[05:54] Kukuri
    a type of controlled
    tsukumo-possession is possible!
[05:58] Kukuri
    And it's called...
[05:59] Kazuya
    Kiriha-san!
[06:00] Kiriha
    Right!
SIGN    Divine Possession
[06:06] Kazuya
    Divine Possession!
[06:13] Sunao
    Secret strike...
SIGN    Winged Cutter
[06:16] Sunao
    Winged Cutter!
[06:18] Kazuya
    Power Obi!
[06:37] Honoka
    Divine Possession?!
[06:39] Honoka
    I didn't know any human could use it!
[06:41] Kiriha
    The slightest lapse will cost us!
[06:43] Kiriha
    Every move must be quick and precise!
[06:46] Kotetsu
    This clash is too dangerous!
[06:47] Kotetsu
    We should regroup—
[06:48] Sunao
    No backing down!
[06:54] Kukuri
    They're even?!
[06:55] Honoka
    No.
[07:09] Kazuya
    Power Obi...
SIGN    Coiling
[07:11] Kazuya
    Coiling Serpent!
SIGN    Serpent
[07:37] Kukuri
    That does it.
[07:39] Kukuri
    The winner is Kagami Kazuya!
[07:57] Kazuya
    Ow!
[07:59] Kazuya
    What was that for?!
[08:07] Kukuri
    That was mighty cool, Kazuyan!
[08:09] Kazuya
    Well... thanks.
[08:12] Kiriha
    You're grinning like a buffoon!
[08:14] Sunao
    Kotetsu!
[08:20] Sunao
    Your spiritual energy was too spent
    to maintain the barrage.
[08:24] Sunao
    That and the accumulated damage Kotetsu
    had taken are what decided the match.
[08:28] Sunao
    Honoka-sama...
[08:30] Honoka
    The blade is in one piece. Don't worry.
[08:34] Honoka
    They could have snapped Kotetsu,
    you know. Show some gratitude.
[08:42] Sunao
    Right.
[08:58] Kazuya
    I thought she considered
    tsukumogami mere tools.
[09:02] Kiriha
    No one who really thinks as such
    could demonstrate that much power.
[09:12] Kukuri
    Well, heck! That was some fight!
[09:15] Kiriha
    With an obvious outcome.
[09:17] Kukuri
    Looked to me like y'all cut it pretty close.
[09:21] Kiriha
    Well, it wouldn't be much of a
    contest if we simply dominated.
[09:25] Kukuri
    There you go again!
[09:26] Kukuri
    I reckon we oughta head home and celebrate!
[09:29] Kiriha
    Since when is it your home? It's mine!
[09:32] Kukuri
    It ain't yours, either, Kiriha!
[09:36] Kukuri/Kiriha
    Kazuyan?!
    Kazuya?!
[09:41] Kazuya/Sunao
    Tsugumomo.
[09:46] Everybody
    Tsugumomo!
[10:01] Kukuri
    Then the reason Kazuyan collapsed...
[10:05] Kiriha
    Aye. An effect of Divine Possession.
[10:09] Kiriha
    It's a technique that involves a
    tsukumogami and its user becoming one.
[10:14] Kiriha
    It temporarily grants inhuman power.
[10:18] Kiriha
    But in ruthlessly drawing forth that power,
[10:21] Kiriha
    it puts a commensurate strain on the body.
[10:24] Kukuri
    Which done put him in this here state.
[10:27] Kukuri
    Y'all didn't barely even use it.
[10:30] Kukuri
    Don't s'pose you know when he'll recover?
[10:32] Kiriha
    I should like to think this is temporary,
    and he'll be back to normal soon.
[10:37] Kukuri
    Still, talk about dangerous.
[10:40] Kukuri
    If Divine Possession had worn off
    'fore you'd beaten Sunao,
[10:44] Kukuri
    you'd have had to protect the immobile
    Kazuyan while fightin', right?
[10:49] Kiriha
    It wouldn't have even gone that far.
[10:52] Kiriha
    I was spiritually depleted to the point
    that I couldn't have projected an obi.
[10:58] Kiriha
    We only tested whether Divine Possession
    was usable during training,
SIGN    Whoa...
SIGN    We can't
    do this
    for long!
[11:01] Kiriha
    but didn't keep it up long enough
    to cause such side effects.
[11:05] Kiriha
    This was the first time we used it seriously.
[11:08] Kiriha
    I didn't think the result
    would be this severe.
[11:11] Kukuri
    A technique you gotta be
    sure you'll win with, huh?
[11:15] Kukuri
    Not somethin' you can pull out whenever.
[11:17] Kasumi
    Hey!
[11:19] Kasumi
    Dinner's ready!
[11:22] Kukuri
    Kazuyan!
[11:24] Kukuri
    Say, "Ahh!"
[11:26] Kazuya
    A-Ahh...
[11:30] Kukuri
    So, whatcha wanna eat next?
[11:33] Kazuya
    Uh, I guess the salad...
[11:36] Kukuri
    Say, "Ahh!"
[11:38] Kasumi
    Wait, what happened to Ya-kun?!
[11:40] Kiriha
    Don't worry. He'll be fine again soon enough.
[11:44] Kasumi
    Don't tell me you forced
    Ya-kun into a dark room
[11:47] Kasumi
    and subjected him to such hardcore treatment
    that he can't even stand anymore?!
[11:51] Kasumi
    But perhaps I could be the one to heal
    Ya-kun's injured body and heart...
[11:55] Kukuri
    You like it, Kazuyan?
[11:57] Kiriha
    My, aren't you enjoying yourself.
[11:59] Kukuri
    N-No! I ain't been thinking a mite
    'bout how we're like newlyweds!
[12:05] Kiriha
    How about it, Kukuri? Why not help
    Kazuya with more than just eating?
[12:09] Kukuri
    I-I don't mind.
[12:14] Kukuri
    Aw...
[12:15] Kukuri
    Aw, shoot...
[12:17] Kukuri
    Not like this!
[12:20] Kazuya
    It's okay, Kiriha-san.
    It won't hurt to skip a single day's bath.
[12:25] Kiriha
    What are you talking about?
    You worked up quite a sweat today!
[12:30] Kiriha
    Didn't you offer to help?
[12:32] Kiriha
    Have you always been such
    an uncaring god, Kukuri?
[12:35] Kukuri
    But I can't help bein' embarrassed.
[12:38] Kukuri
    I mean, yeah, I wanna help Kazuyan, but...
[12:42] Kukuri
    But...
[12:45] Kiriha
    I've a brilliant suggestion, then.
[12:49] Kiriha
    Now then, Kazuya.
[12:50] Kiriha
    Sorry for the wait. You can relax now.
[12:55] Kazuya
    I'm not sure how you expect
    me to do that, considering.
[12:59] Kiriha
    Displeased, Kazuya?
    It must be Kukuri's fault, then.
[13:04] Kukuri
    Forgive me, Kazuyan.
[13:06] Kukuri
    I'm just so dang embarrassed.
[13:08] Kazuya
    Oh, no, it's not your fault, Kukuri-chan!
[13:11] Kiriha
    Here.
[13:12] Kukuri
    Okay.
[13:15] Kiriha
    Now, turn this way.
[13:16] Kazuya
    Hey!
[13:16] Kazuya
    My face is touching them!
[13:18] Kiriha
    So what if it is? Pipe down.
[13:20] Kukuri
    I-I'm gonna wash you now, Kazuyan.
[13:23] Kazuya
    R-Right, thanks.
[13:30] Kiriha
    Aren't you high-and-mighty, Kazuya?
    Making a local god wash your back.
[13:36] Kukuri
    No kiddin', Kazuyan.
[13:38] Kazuya
    You're the one making her do it, Kiriha-san!
[13:41] Kazuya
    Kukuri-chan, you can stop
    if you're uncomfortable.
[13:44] Kukuri
    It's okay.
[13:46] Kukuri
    You did a downright fine job today.
[13:52] Kiriha
    Now then...
[13:54] Kukuri
    There, now turn this way.
[13:58] Kiriha
    Hup.
[14:08] Kiriha
    What's the matter, Kukuri?
    Hurry up and wash it.
[14:12] Kiriha
    His dick.
[14:13] Kukuri
    Don't blurt it out!
[14:14] Kukuri
    You don't have to do that part!
    I can wash it myself, once I can move again!
[14:19] Kiriha
    Don't be foolish. That part
    needs washing the most!
[14:22] Kukuri
    Th-That's right.
[14:24] Kukuri
    The only reason Kazuyan's like this
[14:26] Kukuri
    is 'cause I done made him
    become a malison cleanser.
[14:31] Kukuri
    He's always tendin' to our needs,
    and what's more,
[14:34] Kukuri
    soon 'nuff he might be
    "tendin' to my needs" every night!
[14:38] Kukuri
    All right! I'll wash it!
[14:40] Kukuri
    It's cleanin' time!
[14:43] Kukuri
    Brace yourself!
[14:44] Kazuya
    Hang on a second!
[14:45] Kazuya
    Just give me five min—
[14:52] Kukuri
    It... It's in battle mode!
[14:58] Kazuya
    I mean, you're clinging to me
    and washing me, naked...
[15:02] Kukuri
    En... En garde!
[15:03] Kazuya
    W-Wait! That's enough!
[15:04] Kazuya
    Enough! You don't have to—
[15:19] Kiriha
    Blasted Kukuri. Says she'll take care
    of you, then falls asleep first.
[15:24] Kiriha
    Now then, Kazuya.
[15:27] Kiriha
    I remember promising you a reward if you won.
[15:29] Kazuya
    Did you?
[15:31] Kiriha
    I did.
[15:34] Kiriha
    What kind of reward should I give you?
[15:36] Kazuya
    H-Hang on...
[15:38] Kiriha
    There's no one to interfere now.
[15:40] Kazuya
    Kukuri is right there!
[15:42] Kiriha
    Forget the child. She won't
    wake now that she's asleep.
[15:45] Kazuya
    B-But...
[15:47] Kiriha
    Now...
[15:48] Kiriha
    There's no escape for you, Kazuya.
[15:57] Kiriha
    There!
[15:58] Kiriha
    There!
[15:59] Kazuya
    Wait—
[16:00] Kiriha
    There!
[16:01] Kazuya
    Stop! My underpants—
[16:18] Kukuri
    Well, look at the time.
[16:20] Kukuri
    Hey, Kazuyan. Rise and shine!
[16:26] Kukuri
    Sheesh. Up you go!
[16:30] Kukuri
    Oh, no!
[16:33] Kukuri
    What in tarnation are y'all doin' now?!
[16:35] Kiriha
    Pipe down! It's still early.
[16:39] Kazuya
    She made an obi.
[16:41] Kazuya
    And I can move.
[16:42] Kukuri
    Y'all did this as I was sleepin' beside?!
[16:45] Kukuri
    Heaven may forgive you, but I ain't gonna!
[16:48] Kiriha
    So says the child who couldn't
    even stay awake at night.
[16:51] Kiriha
    Right, Kazuya?
[16:52] Kukuri
    Kazuyan! What did you do?!
[16:54] Kazuya
    To be honest, I kinda
    passed out part way through.
[16:58] Kazuya
    As far as I can remember...
[17:00] Kukuri
    So, how was it? Gimme details!
[17:03] Kasumi
    Damn it all!
[17:05] Kasumi
    What did you do to Ya-kun, you horny youkai?!
[17:07] Kukuri
    Yeah! Don't spare any detail!
[17:09] Kazuya
    I seriously don't remember.
[17:11] Kiriha
    Could you all quiet down?
[17:13] Kasumi
    I can't let you live with this
    lewd tsukumogami anymore!
[17:16] Kasumi
    Ya-kun, you should move into my room!
[17:18] Kazuya
    Uh, I'll pass.
