[00:05] Kuon
    Haku?
[00:07] Twins
    Our new Onkami just manifested before us.
[00:13] Twins
    May he watch over us from
    here for eternity.
[00:30] Kuon
    No... Haku...
[00:35] Kuon
    Haku!
[01:12] Ougi
    Here.
[01:13] Ougi
    This is the new sake for this year.
[01:15] Ougi
    You both loved this brand, didn't you?
[01:20] Ougi
    I didn't think they'd be
    able to make any this year,
[01:23] Ougi
    but it seems we were lucky.
[01:24] Kiwru
    Oh, Ougi?
SIGN    Hey, you're here already?
[01:29] Shinonon
    You're here already?
[01:31] Ougi
    Oh? What brings you here?
SIGN    Same thing as you.
SIGN    It's a special day.
SIGN    We want to share it with them, right?
SIGN    Oshtor, Maroro, are you having fun where you're at?
SIGN    Things are going okay here, I guess.
SIGN    The princesses are all grown up now.
SIGN    Your hard work paid off.
SIGN    Be proud.
[02:06] Kiwru
    It's been a long time, Brother.
[02:09] Kiwru
    I've been so busy governing, I haven't
    had time to visit you. I'm sorry.
[02:14] Kiwru
    I've taken over from my grandfather
    and become an official owlo—
[02:19] Shinonon
    He's getting betrothed to Shinonon!
[02:21] Kiwru
    Huh?! Shinonon?!
[02:23] Shinonon
    We're not? Was I just a toy to you?
[02:28] Kiwru
    A toy? W-W-We never even...
SIGN    Okay, that's enough gloom and seriousness. Let's toast.
[02:38] Ougi
    To Yamato's prosperity!
SIGN    To prosperity!
[02:44] All
    Cheers!
[02:48] Shinonon
    It's been a long time, boss.
[02:50] Shinonon
    Here, have another drink.
[02:53] Kiwru
    What do you suppose Haku's up to?
SIGN    Knowing him, he may be here right now.
[03:01] Shinonon
    Wow, you drink like a real man!
[03:04] Shinonon
    Don't worry, there's plenty more!
[03:07] Shinonon
    Drink! Drink!
SIGN    No, I was just joking.
[03:15] Anju
    It's been a long time.
[03:17] Anju
    I heard you locked yourself
    away after what happened.
[03:20] Anju
    But I guess you're finally out of your hole.
[03:24] Kuon
    And I heard you cried for weeks.
[03:28] Kuon
    Travelers from across the sea told me the
    story of the Mikado who burst into tears.
[03:33] Anju
    I lost a part of myself.
[03:35] Anju
    Of course I'd cry.
[03:37] Anju
    Why would I be ashamed of that?
[03:39] Anju
    And even if I was crying, I never let
    that stop me from moving forward.
[03:43] Anju
    I gritted my teeth and led my people.
[03:46] Anju
    Unlike you, who just locked yourself away!
[03:50] Anju
    If you hadn't come out of hiding,
    I would've given up on you.
[03:54] Kuon
    You had time to grieve, at least.
[03:57] Kuon
    As heir, I didn't have any, so I envy you.
[04:06] Anju
    What a selfish younger sister!
[04:06] Kuon
    What an arrogant little sister!
[04:12] Kuon
    Looks like we need to settle
    things once and for all.
[04:16] Anju
    Even if you cry, I'm not going to stop.
[04:22] Fumirul
    Oh, my...
[04:23] Rulutieh
    It's good to see you again, Fumirul.
[04:26] Rulutieh
    I'm glad you're doing well.
[04:28] Fumirul
    You too, Rulu!
[04:31] Rulutieh
    Thank you!
[04:32] Fumirul
    Bring everyone to Tuskur sometime!
[04:36] Fumirul
    We'll throw you a huge banquet!
[04:39] Rulutieh
    Thank you!
[04:40] Nekone
    It's time, you two.
[04:43] Nekone
    Are you ready?
[04:50] Anju
    W-Well, fine.
[04:52] Anju
    You're the only one who can
    even talk to me that way now.
[04:57] Anju
    I have an obligation to
    laugh and forgive you.
[04:58] Kuon
    That's my line.
[05:03] Kuon
    Let's get started, then.
[05:05] Anju
    Yes, let's begin.
[05:13] Ulthury
    Today, on this auspicious day,
    we stand in the presence of the Onkami.
[05:18] Camyu
    Onkami Uitsualnemetia.
[05:21] Camyu
    Onvitaikayan.
[05:23] Ulthury
    May you bless our choices.
[05:27] Camyu
    May you guide us along
    the path of righteousness.
[05:36] Kurou
    The Empress of Tuskur, the Divine Scion, Kuon!
[05:40] Mikazuchi
    The Mikado of Yamato, the Divine Scion, Anju!
[05:50] Kuon
    People of Tuskur!
[05:52] Anju
    People of Yamato!
[05:55] Kuon
    You remember the long days of war.
[05:58] Anju
    The terrible days of disaster.
[06:02] Kuon
    It was a time of suffering and many trials.
[06:05] Kuon
    But with the help of the Great White One,
     we were able to overcome them.
[06:11] Anju
    And now we are here!
[06:14] Anju
    We were once at war, but we've put aside
    our swords, and we now stand side by side!
[06:20] Kuon
    This is no fleeting miracle.
[06:23] Kuon
    My people, now is the time
    to take each other's hands.
[06:27] Anju
    We may turn our eyes from each other
    at times. We may argue at times.
[06:32] Kuon
    But still, we swear to
    walk alongside each other.
[06:37] Anju
    Because that is the wish
    of the one who guides us,
[06:40] Anju
    and our wish, as well!
[06:42] Kuon
    To prove to all mankind that our words
    are true, we call upon his name.
[06:49] Anju
    The name of the ancient Utawarerumono,
     the white owlo!
[06:53] Kuon
    Listen well, everyone!
[06:56] Anju
    By his name, we swear...
[07:00] Kuon
    That Tuskur...
[07:01] Anju
    ...and Yamato...
[07:03] Both
    ...swear an eternal peace, here and now!
[07:07] Both
    In the name of Hakuowlo!
[07:12] Crowd
    Hakuowlo! Hakuowlo! Hakuowlo!
[07:16] Anju
    We've finally made it this far.
[07:19] Crowd
    Hakuowlo! Hakuowlo! Hakuowlo!
[07:20] Kuon
    This is just the beginning, I think.
[07:24] Anju
    You think he's somewhere out there, watching?
[07:29] Kuon
    I'm sure he is.
[07:34] Kuon
    He's out there somewhere. I know it.
SIGN    Episode Twenty-Eight
SIGN    Mask of Truth
[07:49] Haku
    This place is pretty empty, y'know...
[08:17] Touka
    We've finally done it.
[08:20] Karulau
    Yes, we can finally open for business again.
[08:23] Touka
    You kept disappearing for your
    other job, so I did all the hard work.
[08:30] Karulau
    Well, don't blame me.
[08:32] Karulau
    I couldn't turn that work down.
[08:35] Ulthury
    You two get along as well as ever, I see.
[08:40] Karulau
    Yes, that's right.
[08:42] Touka
    Ulthury.
[08:43] Karulau
    I had her come here in secret.
[08:46] Karulau
    She's the perfect first guest to
    celebrate our reopening, right?
[08:50] Touka
    You did?
[08:52] Touka
    Well, she certainly is.
[08:57] Both
    Welcome to the Hakuroukaku Inn.
[09:05] Soyankekur
    Atuy!
[09:07] Nosuri
    I do feel bad for Soyankekur.
[09:11] Atuy
    It's not my fault!
[09:13] Atuy
    Love involves sacrifices.
[09:16] Atuy
    What about you, Nosuri?
[09:17] Atuy
    You're one of the Eight Pillar Generals now.
[09:19] Atuy
    Was it okay to leave without saying anything?
[09:24] Nosuri
    I've got other priorities now.
[09:27] Nosuri
    And Her Majesty ordered me to find Haku.
[09:31] Nosuri
    Which means we're heading
    for the same place, right?
[09:34] Nosuri
    I'm worried about you going on
    your own. So I'll go with you!
[09:38] Atuy
    Nosuri...
[09:40] Atuy
    You love him too, don't you?
[09:46] Nosuri
    Wait! Wh-Where did that come from?
[09:48] Nosuri
    Haku's a dear comrade!
    Nothing less, and nothing more!
[09:54] Atuy
    Let's go, then!
[09:56] Nosuri
    Wait, wait! You don't believe me, do you?!
[09:58] Nosuri
    A proper lady like me, you see...
[10:02] Fumirul
    Ku runs off whenever she gets a chance.
[10:07] Rulutieh
    She does?
[10:09] Shis
    What are you doing, you ruffians?
[10:13] Men
    We're sorry! Sorry!
[10:17] Fumirul
    Oh, my...
[10:18] Shis
    Sheesh... Why are our men so stupid?
[10:24] Fumirul
    Huh?
[10:28] Shis
    Rulutieh?
[10:29] Rulutieh
    I'm sorry... It just
    reminds me of old times.
[10:34] Shis
    Old times?
[10:36] Rulutieh
    He'll come back.
[10:39] Rulutieh
    That's how it feels to me.
[10:44] Fumirul
    You're right.
[10:47] Rulutieh
    Yes.
[10:49] Ougi
    Fumirul is here, acting as
    Tuskur's goodwill ambassador.
[10:52] Ougi
    She's safely reached Kujyuri.
SIGN    The capital's rebuilding project is coming along nicely,
SIGN    and they'll be inviting representatives from the other nations to hold a ceremony.
[11:04] Ougi
    That's the news, Your Majesty.
[11:05] Shinonon
    Very well.
[11:09] Shinonon
    I leave the matter in your hands.
[11:11] Servants
    Is Her Majesty getting smaller again?
[11:14] Servants
    She sure is.
[11:15] Servants
    But yesterday, I'd thought she'd grown so
    much she'd burst out of her clothes.
[11:20] Torikori
    Welcome back, Nekone.
[11:23] Torikori
    Are you sure it's all right for
    you to stay here, though?
[11:26] Nekone
    They've put me in charge
    of the castle's archives.
[11:31] Nekone
    Now I can live with you!
[11:34] Torikori
    Wonderful. Thank you.
[11:36] Torikori
    You were so little, and now
    you've grown up so much.
[11:41] Torikori
    I love your new outfit.
[11:43] Nekone
    I think Ennakamuy's going
    to change from now on.
[11:48] Nekone
    Your eyes have gotten better, too.
[11:51] Nekone
    I think it's time to look toward the future.
[11:57] Nekone
    I want to help with things,
[11:59] Nekone
    so that my brother and his friends can see how
    his homeland's changed when they return.
[12:05] Torikori
    Yes... I'm sure they'd love that.
[12:10] Nekone
    Yes.
[12:13] Nekone
    This is their home.
[12:17] Mikazuchi
    Behave yourselves!
[12:19] Mikazuchi
    Do you know whose presence you're in?
[12:22] Mikazuchi
    You are in the presence
    of Anju, Mikado of Yamato!
[12:26] Munechika
    Do you not see this seal?
[12:30] Mikazuchi
    You stand in the presence
    of the Divine Scion!
[12:32] Mikazuchi
    Now kneel! Kneel!
[12:37] Anju
    You were trying to use the chaos of the
    rebuilding to line your own pockets!
[12:42] Anju
    You may fool the heavens themselves,
    but you won't fool me!
[12:48] Evil Bureaucrat
    The real Mikado wouldn't be out
    here in the middle of nowhere!
[12:53] Evil Bureaucrat
    She's a fraud!
[12:55] Evil Bureaucrat
    Kill her!
[12:56] Soldiers
    O-Okay!
[12:58] Anju
    You should've just given up...
[13:01] Anju
    Mika, Mune, teach them a lesson.
[13:04] Munechika; Mikazuchi
    As you wish!
[13:09] Anju
    Evil never triumphs!
[13:16] Kiwru
    Your Majesty, this is the location
    of our next destination.
[13:20] Anju
    Thank you!
[13:24] Anju
    It's fun to hide my identity
    and travel in secret, though.
[13:30] Anju
    I understand how my father felt.
[13:34] Anju
    And don't you think that if we keep
    traveling like this, we'll find him somewhere?
[13:40] Anju
    I believe... that he's out there somewhere.
[13:50] Dorii
    You're really into this, Young Master.
[13:52] Guraa
    I guess it's true that when
    you get really into tea,
[13:56] Guraa
    you start making your own teacups.
[13:58] Oboro
    I've given Kuon the throne,
    so now I can finally relax.
[14:03] Oboro
    I can devote myself to my hobbies.
[14:07] Benawi
    My lord.
[14:08] Oboro
    Benawi? What do you think
    of this? Not bad, huh?
[14:13] Benawi
    Her Majesty has fled again.
[14:19] Benawi
    This time, she used a shikigami
     as a body double.
[14:22] Benawi
    Her tricks are getting more elaborate.
[14:24] Dorii
    He's completely spaced out.
[14:27] Guraa
    Control yourself, sir.
[14:31] Oboro
    I can't just stand here!
    I've got to go after her!
[14:34] Benawi
    Kurou!
[14:35] Kurou
    Okay.
[14:37] Oboro
    You two...
[14:42] Benawi
    These matters need to be
    dealt with immediately.
[14:45] Benawi
    In Her Majesty's absence,
    you'll have to resolve them.
[14:50] Benawi
    And Kurou...
[14:51] Kurou
    Okay?
[14:52] Benawi
    Later, we're going to talk about
    how you let Her Majesty escape.
[14:58] Kurou
    O-Okay.
[15:04] Camyu
    She's gone.
[15:06] Aruruu
    Yup.
[15:07] Camyu
    It'll be lonely without her.
[15:09] Aruruu
    Yup.
[15:12] Camyu
    What are those rucksacks for?
[15:14] Aruruu
    I realized that I hadn't seen
    Yamato yet, and neither had you.
[15:20] Camyu
    You mean we're going after Ku?
[15:23] Aruruu
    We're not going after her.
[15:25] Aruruu
    We might run into her on our trip, maybe.
[15:29] Aruruu
    That's all.
[15:30] Camyu
    Oh, yeah, that totally
    happens sometimes, right?
[15:34] Aruruu
    It does.
[15:35] Camyu
    So it's settled, then!
[15:58] Hakuowlo
    I owe him my thanks.
[16:03] Hakuowlo
    He told me there was probably someone waiting
     for me, and took away all of my power.
[16:08] Hakuowlo
    Now I'm just an ordinary human.
[16:13] Eruruu
    Does that mean...
[16:15] (Flashback) Haku
    I call bullshit!
[16:18] (Flashback) Haku
    You're making it sound hard,
[16:20] (Flashback) Haku
    but basically, you get to sit in paradise
    all day and don't have to work, right?
[16:26] (Flashback) Haku
    That's bullshit, and I am jealous!
[16:35] (Flashback) Haku
    Your days as an unstable god are over.
[16:40] (Flashback) Haku
    Time for you to learn the value of work.
[16:49] Hakuowlo
    The wind...
[16:56] Hakuowlo
    The smell of the grass...
[17:01] Eruruu
    Just a little longer, my love.
[17:05] Hakuowlo
    Yes, let's go home, Eruruu.
[17:10] Hakuowlo
    Where the others are...
[17:12] Eruruu
    Yes.
[17:26] Kuon
    Okay, you're done.
[17:30] Kids
    A horsie!
[17:31] Kids
    Can you make a birdie next, miss?
[17:36] Kids
    Hey, come over here!
[17:38] Kids
    This lady's amazing!
[17:40] Kids
    She can make anything with paper!
[17:44] Kuon
    Come here.
[17:47] Kuon
    Is there anything you'd like?
[17:51] Girl
    A flower.
[17:53] Kuon
    A flower?
[17:54] Girl
    Yeah.
[17:55] Girl
    They all wilted in the snow.
[17:57] Girl
    But I want one to take to
    my mom and dad's grave.
[18:02] Kuon
    Okay.
[18:15] Kuon
    Here you go.
[18:17] Girl
    Th-Thank you...
[18:21] Girl
    It's beautiful...
[18:23] Kuon
    Take it to them.
[18:24] Girl
    Okay!
[18:33] Innkeeper
    The girl you saw today,
    the one you gave the flower to...
[18:37] Innkeeper
    She lost her parents in the war.
[18:41] Innkeeper
    And a while ago, she just
    wandered away from the village.
[18:44] Kuon
    I didn't realize...
[18:46] Innkeeper
    But after a while, she came
    back safe and sound.
[18:51] Innkeeper
    She says "Lord Mashiro" brought her back.
[18:55] Kuon
    Lord Mashiro?
[18:57] Innkeeper
    Yes, Lord Mashiro's a legend around here.
[19:02] Kuon
    I'm unfamiliar with that, I think.
[19:04] Innkeeper
    When you've lost everything
    and you're all alone,
[19:08] Innkeeper
    a pale man in white will appear to help you.
[19:16] Kuon
    That's a wonderful story.
[19:19] Innkeeper
    Oh, speaking of strange stories...
[19:22] Innkeeper
    The Tatari in the cave where we
    go to look for herbs disappeared,
[19:27] Innkeeper
    and now it's filled with moss and greenery.
[19:34] Innkeeper
    I didn't mean to keep you up this late.
[19:38] Innkeeper
    I think it's time for me to get some sleep.
[19:41] Innkeeper
    With the world in the shape it's in,
    you're the only customer we've got.
[19:45] Innkeeper
    Use this room however you'd like.
[19:48] Innkeeper
    Well, goodnight.
[19:51] Kuon
    Goodnight.
[19:57] Kuon
    Lord Mashiro...
[20:01] Kuon
    Nah, it couldn't be.
[20:13] Haku
    Wake up.
[20:14] Haku
    Wake up, Kuon.
[20:17] Haku
    Kuon...
[20:21] Haku
    You'll catch a cold if you sleep on the floor.
[20:25] Kuon
    Haku?
[20:28] Haku
    You know...
[20:30] Haku
    You were the one who always complained
    when I didn't sleep on a proper futon.
[20:34] Kuon
    Haku!
[20:35] Haku
    Put this on before you catch a chill, okay?
[20:38] Haku
    What?
[20:40] Haku
    You look like you've seen a ghost.
[20:43] Kuon
    You just... disappeared!
[20:48] Kuon
    Where... Where have you been?
[20:53] Kuon
    I've been looking for you for so long...
[20:55] Kuon
    I looked for such a long, long time...
[20:58] Haku
    Don't be silly.
[21:01] Haku
    I was by your side the whole time.
[21:05] Haku
    Oh, I see.
[21:06] Haku
    I'm sorry. I made you
    feel like you were alone.
[21:10] Kuon
    Yeah... All the others wanted to see you, too.
[21:16] Kuon
    When they know you're back,
     they'll be so happy.
[21:20] Kuon
    I know. Why don't we all
    go to the Hakuroukaku Inn?
[21:26] Kuon
    Haku, why aren't you saying anything?
[21:31] Kuon
    It's too bright to see your face.
[21:36] Kuon
    Let me see you.
[21:40] Kuon
    Huh... It's strange, I think.
[21:44] Kuon
    I can't move...
[21:48] Kuon
    Come on, Haku... Please...
[21:52] Kuon
    Come closer. Please, get closer to me.
[22:12] Kuon
    Where am I?
[22:14] Kuon
    Oh... I fell asleep.
[22:19] Kuon
    Haku!
[22:23] Kuon
    A dream?
[22:24] Innkeeper
    Kuon, come here.
[22:28] Innkeeper
    Come on, hurry.
[22:35] Innkeeper
    Amazing, right? There was snow on
    the ground everywhere yesterday.
[22:39] Kuon
    Yes... But why?
[22:43] Innkeeper
    I don't know. It's a mystery.
[22:46] Innkeeper
    Perhaps the rumors of Lord Mashiro are true?
[22:51] Kuon
    Haku...
[22:53] Innkeeper
    Oh, your coat fell off.
[22:56] Kuon
    Oh, thanks.
[22:59] Kuon
    This is Haku's...
[23:04] Haku
    I'll be borrowing this.
[23:07] Haku
    I just don't feel right without it.
[23:17] Kuon
    So that's it. Haku... Haku saved us all.
[23:27] Kuon
    You did come...
[23:31] Kuon
    I finally... I finally found you.
[23:42] Kuon
    This time, I won't let you escape, Haku!
