[00:03] Kokuyo
You there.
[00:08] Shirou
Th... They're huge!
[00:14] Kokuyo
You are Kagami Kazuya, are you not?
[00:17] Shirou
No, not me.
[00:22] Kokuyou
But you look just like him.
[00:23] Shirou
In what universe?
SIGN Kagami Kazuya
[00:25] Kokuyou
I see. I have no business with you, then.
[00:27] Shirou
Wh-Whoa, hang on a second!
[00:29] Shirou
I can't let a chance like this slip by!
[00:32] Kokuyou
What is it? I am quite busy.
[00:35] Shirou
Well...
[00:36] Shirou
Kazuya and I are friends, actually.
[00:39] Kokuyou
What? Take me to him, now.
[00:43] Shirou
Sure thing! But in exchange...

"Kukuri-hime."
[02:40] (Flashback) Kukuri
Should Kazuya-san awaken,
[02:42] (Flashback) Kukuri
the situation will rapidly turn grave.
[02:44] (Flashback) Kukuri
This necessitates emergency measures.
[02:47] (Flashback) Kiriha
Measures...
[02:49] (Flashback) Kikuri
I'll seal away the excess spiritual energy,
along with all his memories of this incident.
[02:55] (Flashback) Kikuri
That ought stabilize him.
[02:58] (Flashback) Kiriha
Then, please!
[02:59] (Flashback) Kikuri
The problem then becomes what happens to you.
[03:03] (Flashback) Kikuri
A tsukumogami forgotten by its owner
[03:06] (Flashback) Kikuri
will very quickly lose its power.
[03:09] (Flashback) Kikuri
At worst, you might revert
to no more than a mere obi.
[03:13] (Flashback) Kikuri
For a tsukumogami,
it would be akin to dying.
[03:19] (Flashback) Kiriha
It matters not.
[03:24] Dad
You forget anything, Kazuya?
[03:26] Dad
Did you use the bathroom?
[03:28] Dad
I'm gonna be home early tonight,
so let's have dinner as a family.
[03:32] Kazuya
Sure! I'm heading out, now.
[03:36] Kiriha
My goodness.
[03:38] Kazuya
What's up?
[03:40] Kiriha
Kazuaki is quite the doting father.
[03:42] Kazuya
I guess so.
[03:43] Kazuya
He used to be more normal, I hear.
[03:47] Shirou
Hey, Kazuya!
[03:50] Shirou
Go to hell!
[03:55] Kazuya
What was that for?!
[03:57] Shirou
Stuff it!
[03:58] Shirou
I had a world of trouble thanks to you!
SIGN Yesterday
[04:02] (Flashback) Kokuyou
Now, hurry up and tell me
where Kagami Kazuya is.
[04:06] (Flashback) Shirou
Take it easy. We've barely met.
[04:10] (Flashback) Shirou
Why not chat a bit first?
[04:12] (Flashback) Kokuyou
I must attend to my commandment
as quickly as possible.
[04:16] (Flashback) Shirou
Why don't you at least order something?
[04:18] (Flashback) Shirou
My treat!
[04:25] Shirou
Damn you, Kazuya.
[04:27] Shirou
You could have told me
you knew a girl like this!
[04:30] Shirou
Even if she's a little... well, a lot weird.
[04:33] Shirou
Her hotness more than makes up for it!
[04:36] Shirou
Especially that chest!
[04:38] Shirou
How glorious!
[04:40] (Flashback) Kokuyou
It's your treat, you said?
[04:42] (Flashback) Shirou
Sure! Order whatever you want.
[04:45] (Flashback) Waitress
Have you decided on your order?
[04:47] (Flashback) Shirou
Let's see...
[04:49] (Flashback) Shirou
Bring me a sirloin steak.
[04:52] (Flashback) Waitress
The sirloin steak, then?
[04:54] (Flashback) Kokuyou
With both soy garlic sauce
and tomato garlic sauces.
[04:57] (Flashback) Waitress
Soy garlic sauce and
tomato garlic sauce...
[04:59] (Flashback) Kokuyou
Also, the mushroom and grated radish
hamburger steak and a beef stew.
[05:04] (Flashback) Kokuyou
A seafood doria and a Japanese
teriyaki chicken doria,
[05:07] (Flashback) Kokuyou
the shrimp and macaroni gratin,
the deluxe beef curry,
[05:10] (Flashback) Kokuyou
the free-range chicken cutlets,
and the stewed flounder.
[05:12] (Flashback) Kokuyou
Also, the tuna tataki over rice and
extra-fluffy rice omelet with ripe tomatoes,
[05:17] (Flashback) Kokuyou
the wild vegetable soba,
tofu and vegetable soup...
[05:19] (Flashback) Shirou
Wait—
[05:20] (Flashback) Kokuyou
The Shanghai fried rice with clear sauce,
[05:22] (Flashback) Kokuyou
the stone-baked supreme pizza...
[05:23] (Flashback) Shirou
Whoa, hold—
[05:24] (Flashback) Kokuyou
...and the pappardelle
di melanzane con pomodorini.
[05:28] (Flashback) Servers
Here's part of your order.
[05:30] (Flashback) Servers
Here's more of your order.
[05:32] (Flashback) Servers
Sorry about the wait!
[05:34] (Flashback) Servers
Here's the rest!
[06:09] (Flashback) Servers
She finished it all!
[06:13] (Flashback) Servers
Please, take this assortment
of cakes as a reward.
[06:16] (Flashback) Kokuyou
Right. Thank you.
[06:19] (Flashback) Kokuyou
The meal was most appreciated. Farewell, now.
[06:23] (Flashback) Servers
Thanks for dining with us!
[06:28] (Flashback) Shirou
Well, I'd better get going—
[06:32] (Flashback) Servers
Sir...
[06:34] Shirou
So they took all the money I had,
[06:37] Shirou
and on top of that, I'm in debt to Osamu now!
[06:39] Osamu
Don't worry.
[06:40] Osamu
You need but provide 500,000
yen's worth of service.
[06:43] Osamu
Erasing, screen tones...
I've got plenty of work in mind.
[06:48] Shirou
Right on, Osamu-sama! Just name it.
[06:52] Shirou
After this, Shiramine Shirou
[06:54] Shirou
was subjected to a summer
of doujinshi creation hell.
[06:59] Kazuya
Anyway, you said this lady
was looking for me?
[07:02] Shirou
I have no idea who she could be.
[07:04] Shirou
Quit playing dumb!
You can't deny the evidence!
[07:07] Kazuya
So what am I supposed to say?
[07:13] (Flashback) Kukuri
You knucklehead!
[07:15] (Flashback) Kukuri
Ya get treated to a meal at a restaurant...
[07:18] (Flashback) Kukuri
and ya end up forgettin' your job?!
[07:20] (Flashback) Kukuri
You birdbrain!
[07:21] (Flashback) Kokuyou
I'm terribly sorry.
[07:23] (Flashback) Kukuri
Apologies ain't gonna cut it!
[07:25] (Flashback) Kokuyou
Lately, all I've had to eat are
edible grass and mayonnaise,
[07:30] (Flashback) Kokuyou
with my occasional sources of protein
being frogs, snakes, and rats.
[07:34] (Flashback) Kokuyou
I'm afraid the vision of
such a feast stole my heart.
[07:39] (Flashback) Kokuyou
The cause of all our ills is
this shrine's donation situation.
[07:42] (Flashback) Kokuyou
Maybe if its deity were notable enough
to have been in the Kojiki records...
[07:46] (Flashback) Kukuri
So you're gonna go there?!
When ya know I'm sore 'bout that?!
[07:49] (Flashback) Kokuyou
I think you must be hearing things.
SIGN Hakusan Shrine
[07:51] (Flashback) Kokuyou
Who would dare call you a forgettable god,
[07:54] (Flashback) Kokuyou
barely mentioned in a single
sentence of the Nihon Shoki?
[07:57] (Flashback) Kukuri
You, clearly!
[07:58] (Flashback) Kukuri
I've done had it! Just bring
Kagami Kazuya here already!
[08:03] (Flashback) Kokuyou
I shall.
[08:03] (Flashback) Kukuri
Make contact after he leaves school.
[08:06] (Flashback) Kukuri
Got it? Don't go causin' a ruckus!
[08:09] (Flashback) Kukuri
And don't bring the washcloth girl.
[08:17] Shirou
So that being the case...
[08:18] Shirou
I challenge you, with lunch on the line.
[08:21] Shirou
I'm flat broke here, man!
[08:23] Shirou
Besides, Kasumi-san personally
prepares your lunches, right?
[08:27] Kazuya
What do you see in that sister of mine?
[08:30] Shirou
Come on. Arm wrestle me.
[08:35] Kiriha
Arm wrestling, is it?
[08:37] Kazuya
You know about that?
[08:38] Kiriha
Naturally! It was quite the pastime of mine.
[08:42] Students
My lunch!
[08:44] Students
Oh, no! Mine's gone, too!
[08:46] Students
I was really looking forward
to that cutlet sandwich!
[08:48] Kazuya
What the...
[08:50] Kazuya
Kiriha-san, you didn't—
[08:53] Kazuya
Sorry...
[08:54] Kiriha
As long as you understand.
[08:56] Chi
Could it be another amasogi?
[08:58] Kazuya
Nah, it's just a thief or something.
[09:01] Kiriha
But what human could
consume the lunches of so many?
[09:06] Kokuyou
Is Kagami Kazuya in here?!
[09:08] Everyone
Found one!
[09:09] Shirou
Wait! That's her!
[09:12] Shirou
The bottomless stomach!
[09:14] Kokuyou
Who are you?
[09:15] Shirou
The guy who paid for your meal yesterday!
[09:18] Shirou
Pay me back! Or let me fondle your tits!
[09:20] Kokuyou
You were most generous to me yesterday.
[09:23] Kokuyou
But you were the one who offered to pay.
[09:25] Shirou
Not for every item on the menu!
[09:27] Shirou
I got screwed over because of you!
[09:29] Kokuyou
I'm sorry to hear that.
[09:31] Kokuyou
But I have no money.
You may rub my breasts.
[09:34] Shirou
Yeah, I figured,
[09:35] Shirou
but what are cops for
if you can talk your way—
[09:38] (Flashback) Kokuyou
But I have no money.
You may rub my breasts.
[09:41] Chi
Judgment!
SIGN Decultu—
[09:44] Kokuyou
That matter aside,
[09:46] ---
Kagami Kazuya, you're coming with me.
[09:48] Kazuya
Huh?
[09:50] Kiriha
I think not!
[09:52] Kiriha
I can hardly have you running
off with my servant.
[09:56] Kazuya
You promised you wouldn't come out!
[09:58] Kokuyou
Do not hinder my commandment,
lowly tsukumogami.
[10:02] Kiriha
I take it you serve her? She failed
to teach you any manners, I see.
[10:06] Kokuyou
I was strictly told not to bring you along.
[10:09] Kokuyou
Begone, washcloth girl.
[10:13] Kiriha
What did you just say?
[10:15] Kokuyou
We have no need of you, washcloth girl.
[10:19] Kiriha
S-So Kukuri's dog dares bark at me?!
[10:22] Kiriha
Face me, you ogress!
[10:23] Kazuya
Let's handle this calmly! Okay?!
[10:26] Kiriha
Unhand me, Kazuya!
[10:29] Kokuyou
Lost your nerve?
[10:30] Kiriha
What?!
[10:31] Kazuya
Easy, easy! Let's resolve
this in a peaceful way!
[10:37] Kiriha
I know.
[10:39] Kiriha
You, with the demon teats.
[10:41] Kokuyou
What is it, washcloth girl?
[10:43] Kiriha
Let us settle this dispute
with a bout of arm wrestling.
[10:48] Kokuyou
Very well.
[10:56] Kokuyou
And why must I change into this outfit?
[10:59] Shirou
That's the official arm wrestling uniform!
[11:02] Kazuya
So it was your idea?
[11:03] Chi
I can't believe you're at it again—
[11:05] Kazuya
So it'll be a single
round of arm wrestling.
[11:08] Kazuya
If Kiriha-san wins,
she comes with us to the shrine.
[11:11] Kazuya
If she loses, she has to stay here.
[11:13] Kazuya
I can't help but notice that
I have to go either way.
[11:17] Kiriha
Kazuya, here.
[11:19] Kiriha
Remove this desk. It's in the way.
[11:23] Kiriha
Each of us may use only one arm.
[11:25] Kiriha
Both feet must remain planted at all times.
[11:28] Kiriha
Fail to do so and you lose.
[11:29] Kiriha
Connect with a clean blow
to the face and you win.
[11:32] Kiriha
If I win, you will take me to her.
[11:36] Kokuyou
I accept.
[11:40] Shirou
I thought this was arm wrestling?
[11:41] Kiriha
Oh, it is.
[11:44] Kiriha
But this is how we do it.
[12:27] PE
Hey! What are you kids doing?!
[12:30] PE
It's way past the end of lunch break!
[12:32] Shirou
Sorry, we got a little absorbed
in the arm wresting match.
[12:36] PE
Arm wrestling?
[12:38] PE
What are you talking about?
[12:41] PE
Huh?
[12:44] Kokuyou
A deal's a deal.
[12:46] Kokuyou
Follow if you must, washcloth girl.
[12:49] Kiriha
Call me that again and
I will rend you asunder!
[12:52] Chi
There goes my spotless attendance record...
[12:56] Kazuya
Why'd you come along, anyway?
[12:58] Chi
I had no idea there was
a shrine on this mountain.
[13:02] Kiriha
Unheard of by the locals. What a sorry state.
[13:06] Kazuya
It's my first time coming this way.
[13:09] Kazuya
Except... it somehow feels like it's not.
SIGN Hakusan Shrine
[13:14] Kokuyou
Here we are.
[13:16] Kokuyou
Welcome to Hakusan Shrine.
[13:27] Kokuyou
The mistress will now
grace us with her presence.
SIGN Kokuyou Conqueror of the entire menu!
[13:53] Kokuyou
Tsugumomo.
[13:59] Kiku
This is Tsugumomo.
[14:11] (Flashback) Kiku
No surprise against this porcelain amasogi.
[14:13] (Flashback) Kiku
A silk obi won't make a scratch.
[14:16] (Flashback) Kiku
Will you call upon a hammer
tsukumogami instead?
[14:19] (Flashback) Kanaka
Nope, it's fine!
[14:20] (Flashback) Kanaka
Let's go, Kiriha-chan!
[14:31] Kiku
Behold the Great Incarnation of
Hakusan-Myouri, Kukuri-hime no Ookami.
[14:36] Kazuya
A mask?
[14:38] Kazuya
Is she the goddess of this shrine?
[14:40] Chi
That's a Noh mask—
a ko-omote, to be exact.
[14:43] Kiriha
Look at you, so desperate to seem impressive.
[14:45] Kiriha
What's this, Kukuri?
[14:47] Kiriha
Our much belated reunion,
and you greet me in a Noh mask?
[14:51] Kokuyou
Watch your mouth!
[14:53] Kiku
I remember asking for only Kazuya-san...
[14:57] Kokuyou
I'm terribly sorry.
[14:59] Kokuyou
I was challenged by the washcloth girl.
[15:02] Kiriha
And I dominated her!
[15:03] Kokuyou
You barely won.
[15:05] Kiku
I see. Arm wrestling, was it?
[15:07] Kiku
Time hasn't dulled your skills, Kiriha.
[15:10] Kiriha
Naturally!
[15:11] Kiriha
I'm the one who leads you,
125 wins to 123 losses.
[15:15] Kiriha
What chance could your disciple have had?
[15:20] Kiku
No, the record is actually 124 battles,
123 losses, and 1 draw, to my advantage.
[15:26] Kiku
Perhaps your mind has grown
frail in lieu of your body.
[15:30] Kiriha
Sounds to me like you've gone senile!
[15:32] Kiriha
And what exactly do you mean, one draw?!
[15:34] Kiku
Do you not recall the battle
we called off due to heavy rain?
[15:38] Kiriha
That drizzle was an excuse
to dodge an imminent loss!
[15:40] Kiku
At any rate, you do not
have more wins than me!
[15:43] Kiku
Stop making up stories!
[15:45] Kiriha
Face the facts, you goddess of idiocy!
[15:47] Kiku
How dare you, you washcloth youkai?!
[15:49] Kazuya
Hey! No fighting, please!
[15:53] Kiku
Now, the reason I summoned...
[15:54] Kiriha
Hold. Before that...
[15:56] Kiriha
The seal was to last until he had fully
matured. Why has it broken already?
[16:01] Kiriha
And the disruptions in malison...
[16:04] Kiriha
Is there something at work here?
[16:06] Kiku
The seal has not been completely broken.
[16:10] Kiku
Its effect has weakened,
[16:12] Kiku
but his memories tied to the truth
remain sealed, don't they?
[16:15] Kiriha
Yes.
[16:16] Kiriha
But this is untenable.
[16:19] Kiriha
You should reapply the seal
and soothe the malison disruption.
[16:24] Kiku
I cannot do that just yet.
[16:27] Kiriha
What?!
[16:28] Kiku
However, there is a solution.
[16:32] Kiku
Kagami Kazuya.
[16:33] Kazuya
Yes?
[16:34] Kiku
You will see to the exorcism of
the phenomena in this region.
[16:39] Kiku
I call upon you to be a malison cleanser.
[16:41] Kazuya
Malison cleanser?
[16:43] Kazuya
Me? Not Kiriha-san?
[16:45] Kiriha
Impossible!
[16:47] Kiriha
Stop with your sadistic jokes!
[16:49] Kiriha
You can have your priestess there
handle the malison cleansing!
[16:52] Kiku
I'm afraid I'm not joking.
[16:55] Kiku
Kagami Kazuya-san...
[16:58] Kiku
Over the last few days, you've been party
to several strange occurrences, yes?
[17:02] Kazuya
Yes...
[17:04] Kazuya
In this ordinary town,
such aberrations occur only around you.
[17:09] Kazuya
Do you understand why that is?
[17:12] Kazuya
No...
[17:14] Kiriha
Enough, Kukuri!
[17:15] Kiku
It is because you are the beacon
that attracts the malison.
[17:22] Kiku
The root of danger to all people,
wherever you may go...
[17:26] Kiku
That is what you are.
[17:30] Kiku
The otherworldly threats caused by malison
ought be dealt with by their very cause.
[17:35] Kiku
Logical, wouldn't you say?
[17:37] Kiriha
Ignore her, Kazuya!
[17:39] Kiriha
That lying serpent simply
wants you to do her bidding!
[17:43] Kiriha
We're leaving!
[17:52] Kiriha
A barrier?
[17:53] Kiku
This is hallowed ground.
[17:55] Kiku
I'm afraid you'll have no freedom until
I receive an agreeable answer.
[18:00] Kiku
Do you absolutely refuse?
[18:03] Kiriha
Of course! Now drop this and let us through!
[18:09] Kiku
I'm afraid I have no choice, then.
[18:12] Kiku
I suppose I can at least
eliminate the seed of calamity.
[18:18] Kokuyou
Pardon me.
[18:22] Kazuya
Chisato!
[18:26] Kiriha
A hostage?! That's underhanded!
[18:28] Kiku
I am simply removing the innocent bystander.
[18:31] Kiku
I'll ask again...
[18:33] Kiku
Will you accept the duty
of cleansing the malison?
[18:36] Kazuya
M-Me?
[18:38] Kiriha
Enough!
[18:41] Kiku
Very well. I won't tell
you not to fight back.
[18:45] Kiku
Run as you may, and make the most
of your fleeting final moments.
[18:49] Kiriha
Have you gone mad, Kukuri?!
[18:55] Kiku
Bear witness...
[18:57] Kiku
to the power of Kukuri-hime
the water goddess.
[19:00] Kiku
Now, dance for me, O droplets of water.
[19:06] Kiku
Water Pressure.
[19:09] Kazuya
Kiriha-san!
[19:10] Kiriha
Get back, Kazuya!
[19:12] Kiku
Pierce them, spouts of water...
[19:16] Kiriha
Double-Woven Shield Weave!
[19:19] Kiku
Water Spear.
[19:23] Kiriha
She got through both layers like nothing!
[19:29] Kiriha
Wing Weave!
[19:32] Kiriha
I won't play your game!
[19:42] Kiku
Did you think the barrier
did not extend to the sky?
[19:46] Kazuya
Kiriha-san!
[19:47] Kiirha
Do not speak, lest you bite your tongue!
[19:50] Kiriha
There is no way out. In that case...
[19:56] Kiriha
The weakening of the seal...
Her refusal to show her face...
[19:59] Kiriha
It may very well mean...
[20:02] Kiriha
Sledgehammer Weave!
[20:03] Kiku
Water Curtain.
[20:06] Kiriha
Greater Strike!
[20:10] Kiriha
I have you now! Spiral Weave!
[20:13] Kiku
Water Mirage. I'm afraid I have you now.
[20:21] Kazuya
Kiriha-san!
[20:23] Kiku
It was clever of you to aim for the Noh mask.
[20:26] Kiku
As you have surmised, my power
is currently tied to this mask.
[20:31] Kiku
Not that such knowledge will help you.
[20:34] Kazuya
Are you okay, Kiriha-san?
[20:42] Kazuya
That's enough, Kiriha-san!
I'll do what she wants!
[20:46] Kiriha
Fool...
[20:48] Kiriha
You needn't put yourself in the line of fire.
[20:52] Kiriha
Just be silent, and stay behind me!
[20:54] Kazuya
But I...
[20:55] Kiku
Let us put an end to this, then.
[21:05] Kiku
O noble white mountain peaks,
[21:10] Kiku
gush forth with a blessed torrent...
[21:15] Kiriha
She's using the full incantation!
[21:19] Kiku
By the will of those whose
dominion is all that swirls...
