[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?!

[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...

[07:19] 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?

[12:32] 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...

[13:16] 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!

[17:57] 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!
