[00:05] Kazuya     These are the tsukumogami from Mayoiga... [00:08] Akito     We'll take the man in the motorcycle jacket. [00:10] Taguri     That leaves tubby and the beanpole for me. [00:12] Kiriha     And we take the woman. [00:14] Kazuya     Okay! [00:24] Genbu     Stay out of this, Akito. [00:26] Genbu     They already know you're     from Mayoiga, don't they? [00:30] Akito     It's not the right time yet. [00:32] Akito     Stay away from the regional god. [00:35] Genbu     Do you know how many of our comrades     have died waiting for "the right time"?! [00:42] Akito     I'm sorry. [00:50] Genbu     I never liked you, anyway. [00:56] Akito     The feeling's mutual. SIGN    Kanayama Hexagonal Adamantine Pillar [01:05] Jungou     What the?!

[03:44] Mimane     Nice, Akito! [03:47] Akito     I've never landed a single     hit on Chikage, though. [03:52] Genbu     You think this is gonna be easy?

[04:33] Akito     Or it'll be more than a     flesh wound next time. [04:37] Genbu     You never cease pissing me off. [04:39] Genbu     But I'm not about to back down! [04:49] Akito     He blocked with one arm? Wait... [04:56] Akito     My body... [04:57] Akito     That's a scissors case. [04:59] Genbu     That's right. [05:00] Genbu     Tsukumogami like us are bound by the     logic of the items from which we are born. [05:06] Genbu     Now, you're done, Akito! [05:12] Taguri     Adamantine Column!

SIGN    Kanayama Hexagonal Adamantine Pillar [05:47] Senga     Fool. [05:49] Senga     You must've underestimated us,     thinking we're ordinary tsukumogami. [05:54] Jungou     A tsukumogami's power gains more breadth and becomes more vast the older they get. [06:00] Jungou     We've got powers that rival     those of your average deity. [06:11] Kyouka     I missed? Lucky for you. [06:17] Kiriha     We can't get closer at this rate.     We need to back away for now. [06:22] Kiriha     Kazuya?! [06:23] Kazuya     Woven Legs! [06:27] Kyouka     Tremor Tone Flute: Hammering Pipe Note! [06:35] Kyouka     You're finished! [06:35] Kiriha     I don't think so! [06:36] Kiriha     Shield Weave! [06:43] Kiriha     Invisible shock waves... What do we do? [06:46] Kazuya     Kiriha-san... [06:49] Kazuya     Let's use Divine Possession. [06:52] Kazuya     We have to beat her! [06:54] Kiriha     What are you saying, you imbecile?! [06:55] Kiriha     What if Divine Possession runs out     before we find a way to take her down? [07:00] Kiriha     You usually fight smarter than this! [07:03] Kiriha     It's not like you to lose your head in a rage! [07:06] Kazuya     But she... [07:08] Kyouka     Aw, done already? [07:12] Kyouka     I have to say, the crow priestess     put up a much better fight. [07:17] Kiriha     What? [07:18] Kyouka     It was a fierce fight, [07:20] Kyouka     but she remained at a safe distance     while throwing out sharp attacks... [07:25] Kyouka     That said, she was completely outnumbered,     so all she could really do was run. [07:30] Kyouka     And that's why, whenever I saw an opening,     I shattered the smaller bones in her body. [07:37] Kyouka     One at a time... bit by bit. [07:42] Kyouka     That cool look on her face     started to warp in agony... [07:47] Kyouka     And before long, she couldn't     choke back her anguished moans. [07:51] Kyouka     But I'm not satisfied in the least. [07:54] Kyouka     I need to hear the melody of my     prey's last cries before dying... [07:59] Kyouka     So I need to make sure     I finish the crow off. [08:05] Kyouka     And when I get to this region's goddess,     I'll spend twice the time... [08:10] Kyouka     I mean, the death of a god? [08:13] Kyouka     That's the kind of sound you'd be     lucky to hear once in a lifetime! [08:21] Kyouka     I'm really looking forward to it. [08:23] Kiriha     You wretch! [08:24] Kazuya     Ayasakura. [08:26] Kazuya     Divine Possession. [08:31] Kyouka     No way... [08:32] Kyouka     Divine Possession?! [08:34] Kyouka     When a master and their tsukumogami unite     as one... I've never seen it before! [08:39] Kiriha     Kazuya commanded me? [08:41] Kiriha     With my real name, so I couldn't refuse? [08:46] Kyouka     High Impact Note: Four Part Harmony! [08:53] Kyouka     Hammering Pipe Note! [08:55] Kazuya     Obi Drum! [08:57] Kyouka     He canceled it out with a lower tone?! [09:02] Kyouka     I won't be able to defend in time. [09:04] Kyouka     In that case...

[10:09] Senga     Well, that just leaves the     one in charge of this region. [10:12] Jungou     Right. [10:13] Taguri     True enough... [10:16] Taguri     You Mayoiga tsukumogami     shouldn't be underestimated. [10:21] Senga     Scattered Flowers hit her dead-on! [10:23] Jungou     Did it not affect her?! [10:26] Taguri     Oh, you'll need more than     that to get through to me. [10:32] Taguri     Now, then... [10:35] Taguri     I've got an idea of your power,     so it's time to put an end to this. [10:44] Jungou     That thing is bad news!     Put everything you've got into blocking it! [10:47] Jungou     Heavenly Defense: Meteorite Shield! [10:49] Senga     Fighting Fans: Stone Headpiece!

[11:16] Taguri     It's only natural that anyone who     goes after Kukuri-chan dies for it. [11:20] Genbu     This is the end, Akito! [11:28] Genbu     What the hell are these?! [11:30] Genbu     Chopsticks?! [11:32] Akito     We knew you were coming,     so we had time to prepare. [11:37] Akito     Mimane brought those chopsticks     from a neighborhood restaurant. [11:42] Akito     They're made of iron birch, [11:45] Akito     also known as "axe-breaking birch." SIGN    Axe-Breaking Birch [11:50] Genbu     Using the same trick that I did, huh?

[12:28] Akito     Genbu wouldn't have given up any secrets,     even if he was tortured until it destroyed him. [12:33] Mimane     Something's funny about this, though. [12:35] Mimane     Didn't Genbu and the others     know they'd be fighting you? [12:39] Mimane     Not to mention the exorcist     and the goddess... [12:42] Akito     Right. [12:42] Mimane     Doesn't it seem like, even if they had won, [12:45] Mimane     they wouldn't have had the     strength to return to Mayoiga? [12:49] Mimane     It's not as if they could use     malison crossing like us. [12:52] Mimane     So how were they gonna bring the shard back? [12:58] Akito     That's it! Genbu and the     others were a distraction! [13:01] Akito     He'll have allies that are     targeting the regional goddess!

[18:12] Kiriha     And there you have it. [18:14] Kukuri     I getcha. Guess she used up too much     strength to maintain her tsukumogami form. [18:20] Kukuri     In that case... [18:23] Kukuri     Kazuyan's gonna need to be     her temp partner for a bit. [18:27] Kukuri     That oughta restore enough spiritual     power to bring her back. [18:32] Kazuya     I see... [18:34] Kazuya     I hope that works. [18:38] Kukuri     Well, I don't figure there's gonna     be any more attacks just yet. [18:42] Kukuri     Good work, people! Much appreciated!

[19:50] Akito     But we've lost even more villagers. [19:53] Akito     For now, we should head back to the     village and report on what's happened. [19:57] Arumi     Brother!
