**[00:05] (Flashback) Mito {Flashback}**
Have we met somewhere before?
**[00:11] (Flashback) Ruka {Flashback}**
Please, I beg you. Let me stay here, too!
**[00:14] (Flashback) Ruka {Flashback}**
Please, let me at least stay by Mito's side!
**[00:19] (Flashback) Mito {Flashback}**
I really hope your feelings
reach that person.
**[00:30] Ruka {Flashback}**
*The sang sucre is pitch black.*
**[00:32] Ruka {Flashback}**
* I see. I don't think there's an ounce*
* of love left in Mito for me.*
**[00:41] Ruka {Flashback}**
*All of this is punishment for hurting Mito.*
**[00:47] Ruka {Flashback}**
*I love you, Mito.*
***SIGN*** The pretty boy vows?!
**[01:10] Reiko**
My! You two look great!
**[01:14] Mito**
Thank you very much.
**[01:18] Ren**
Yamamoto.
**[01:19] Ren**
I'm happy I'm able to
welcome this day with you.
**[01:22] Ren**
I'll cherish you forever.
**[01:25] Mito**
Ren.
**[01:26] Reiko**
Now, Ren, you have to get ready as well.
**[01:30] Ren**
Yeah.
**[01:31] Ren**
I'll see you later, then.
**[01:43] Mito**
I'm... getting married...
**[01:47] Mito**
I was on my own for what seemed like forever,
**[01:51] Mito**
with no family to rely on, but...
**[01:53] Mito**
From now on, Ren will be by my side.
**[01:58] Mito**
But was I really alone the whole time?
**[02:09] Mito**
I feel like...
**[02:10] Mito**
there was someone who took me in.
**[02:17] Mito**
Oh, come in!
**[02:21] Mito**
Ruka.
**[02:25] Ruka**
Sorry. I know it's just
before the ceremony.
**[02:29] Ruka**
I just really wanted to give this to you.
**[02:32] Mito**
What is it?
**[02:34] Ruka**
A sang sucre.
**[02:36] Mito**
A sang sucre?
**[02:38] Mito {M}**
*I've heard that before...*
**[02:41] Ruka**
This heart turns red the more
you're loved by someone,
**[02:45] Ruka**
and as you learn what it
feels like to be loved.
**[02:50] Mito**
A deep red color...
**[02:53] Ruka**
It's the color of my love for you.
**[02:58] Ruka**
I love you, Mito.
**[03:04] Ruka**
It doesn't matter whether
you're a man or a woman,
**[03:06] Ruka**
or some destined partner...
None of that matters.
**[03:11] Ruka**
Even if you never remember me,
**[03:13] Ruka**
I'll continue to love you forever.
**[03:23] Ruka**
I wish you happiness.
**[03:36] Mito {M}**
*I don't have any memories of this person.*
**[03:40] Mito {M}**
* He's supposed to be someone*
* I've just met, and yet...*
**[03:51] Mito {M}**
*Why...*
**[03:54] Mito {M}**
*can't I stop crying?*
**[04:11] Reiko**
Mito-san, I'm very happy that
you're Ren's destined partner.
**[04:18] Mito {M}**
*I'm Ren's destined partner...*
**[04:22] Reiko**
Mito-san, come, let's go.
**[04:28] Mito**
Yes.
**[04:41] Rotis**
Now begins the wedding ceremony... no.
**[04:45] Rotis**
The ritual for Ren to become
the leader of the vampires!
**[04:54] Mito**
Ren.
**[04:57] Ren**
Yamamoto.
**[04:59] Mito {M}**
*Ren...*
**[05:01] Mito {M}**
*Ren's been with me up to this day.*
**[05:05] Mito {M}**
*He always supported me, and...*
**[05:09] Mito {M}**
* Most importantly, he's someone*
* who's loved me, of all people.*
**[05:14] Mito {M}**
*That's why I'll also...*
**[05:17] Mito {M}**
*For Ren, I'll...*
**[05:22] Vampire Witness**
Ren, do you swear that you
will continue to love Mito
**[05:28] Vampire Witness**
despite the stigma of hardship
and loneliness that dhampirs carry?
**[05:34] Ren**
Yeah, I vow to love him forever.
**[05:40] Vampire Witness**
Mito, how about you?
**[05:44] Mito {M}**
*I do, too...*
**[05:56] Ren**
Yamamoto?
**[06:00] Mito {M}**
*Why? Why can't I make my vows?*
**[06:04] Mito {M}**
*I thought I wanted a happy future with Ren...*
**[06:11] Mito {M}**
*Why...*
**[06:13] Mito {M}**
*won't that guy's face...*
**[06:15] Mito {M}**
*leave my mind?*
**[06:19] Ren**
Yamamoto?
**[06:20] Mito**
I'm sorry... Ren... I...
**[06:35] Ruka**
Hey,
**[06:36] Ruka**
stop crying.
**[06:39] Mito**
Ruka...?
**[06:41] Ruka**
If you keep this up, your blood's going to
taste worse than it already does, Mito.
**[06:49] Mito**
Ruka!
**[06:52] (Flashback) Ruka {Flashback}**
I could be the one
who needs you, if you want?
**[06:55] (Flashback) Ruka {Flashback}**
You know, I made this cake
especially for you.
**[06:58] (Flashback) Ruka {Flashback}**
The fated partner stuff doesn't matter.
**[07:01] (Flashback) Ruka {Flashback}**
Right now, all I want to do is protect
the person right in front of me.
**[07:07] Mito {M}**
*That's right!*
**[07:10] Mito**
Ruka, I...
**[07:12] Mito**
remember now.
**[07:14] Mito**
I remember you, and how much I love you!
**[07:30] Ruka**
I love you, too, Mito.
**[07:32] Ruka**
I should have realized my feelings sooner.
**[07:37] Ruka**
I should have told you how I felt sooner.
**[07:42] Ruka**
That's why I'm never letting you go.
**[07:48] Mito**
Ruka.
**[07:56] Mito**
Huh?
**[07:58] Mito**
I'm...
**[07:59] Ruka**
Mito... You're...
**[08:03] Mito**
I'm sorry! Ruka! I'm... I'm...
**[08:09] Ruka**
You're... the one from...
**[08:16] Ruka**
You're the girl from back then?
**[08:20] Mito**
I didn't mean to fool you! I'm really sorry!
**[08:27] Ruka**
That's...
**[08:30] Ruka**
amazing!
**[08:32] Ruka**
That you were my destined partner...
**[08:36] Mito**
Ruka...
**[08:39] Rotis**
I won't allow it!
**[08:43] Rotis**
If I simply...
**[08:48] Rotis**
erase all your memories, then...
**[08:53] Rotis**
Ren?
**[08:54] Rotis**
Let go! Ren!
**[08:56] Rotis**
Why are you interfering?!
**[08:58] Ren**
I won't let you hurt
the first person I ever loved.
**[09:01] Ren**
Not even you, Father!
**[09:06] Founder**
You have a fine son.
**[09:10] Ruka**
Founder!
**[09:14] Founder**
Your plans have been foiled
and have ended in failure.
**[09:20] Ruka**
Miko?!
**[09:25] Founder**
However, because of that,
Ruka was able to find true love.
**[09:34] Rotis**
Dammit!
**[09:36] Rotis**
Founder... my master!
**[09:39] Rotis**
Why?
**[09:41] Rotis**
Why didn't you choose *me* as the next leader?!
**[09:45] Rotis**
I thought I was your number one disciple!
**[09:49] Founder**
So you tried to use your son
to attain those unfulfilled wishes?
**[09:59] Rotis**
I thought there was no other who
could take your place save for me...
**[10:05] Reiko**
Dear...
**[10:07] Founder**
It is because only those
with a strong heart,
**[10:09] Founder**
who would not succumb to the power
of deceit, were worthy in my eyes.
**[10:14] Founder**
Ruka has the power to find true love.
**[10:18] Founder**
And I believed that he had
the heart to see it through.
**[10:23] Founder**
And thus, he has proven himself to me.
**[10:27] Ruka**
Founder.
**[10:31] Founder**
Rotis,
**[10:33] Founder**
it seems you still have much to learn
from me. My dear disciple.
**[10:38] Rotis**
Founder...
**[10:41] Founder**
Ruka.
**[10:43] Founder**
She is your destined partner.
**[10:47] Ruka**
Founder, have you known all along?
**[10:50] Mito**
Oh.
**[10:51] Mito {M}**
*This person...*
**[10:57] Mito {M}**
*He's the one who saved me from drowning.*
**[11:01] Founder**
I've put you through
considerable suffering.
**[11:04] Founder**
Please forgive me.
**[11:05] Mito**
It's okay.
**[11:07] Mito**
Um... Are you...
**[11:10] Founder**
Oh, that's right.
**[11:13] Komori**
Do you understand now?
**[11:15] Mito**
Komori-san?!
**[11:16] Komori**
Ever since I saw you, I had a feeling
this is how things would happen.
**[11:21] Ruka**
Geez, you gave us too many trials.
***SIGN*** Vampire
Dormitory
**[12:00] Mito**
Yay!
**[12:03] Mito**
I get to live here again!
**[12:06] Ruka**
Once again... Welcome home, Mito.
**[12:09] Mito**
Yeah!
**[12:18] Ruka**
Anyway, how long are you going
to stay dressed like a man?
**[12:22] Mito**
Well, people can't find out I'm a woman
**[12:24] Mito**
while I'm at school or in the dorms.
**[12:25] Ruka**
You're right.
**[12:27] Ruka**
If they find out just how cute you are,
guys will be all over you again.
**[12:32] Mito {M}**
*What is this super sweet talk, Ruka?!*
**[12:36] Ruka**
Come here.
**[12:37] Mito**
Huh?
**[12:49] Mito**
Did you want to suck my blood?
**[12:50] Ruka**
I don't need blood.
**[12:56] Ruka**
Right now, I just want you, Mito.
**[13:10] Mito {M}**
* I can't believe I can*
* be myself in front of Ruka.*
**[13:14] Mito {M}**
*I'm the happiest I could be right now.*
**[13:19] Mito {M}**
*Thank you, Ruka.*
**[13:33] Mito**
Why are you in my bed, Ruka?!
**[13:35] Mito**
Don't just crawl in here with me!
**[13:37] Ruka**
Hey! Hold on!
**[13:39] Ruka**
You know this is *my* bed, right?
**[13:43] Mito {M}**
*That's right.*
**[13:45] Mito {M}**
* I used the bathroom*
* in the middle of the night,*
**[13:47] Mito {M}**
* and just naturally made*
* my way into Ruka's bed.*
**[13:52] Mito**
S-Sorry.
**[13:53] Ruka**
It's all right, so come here.
**[13:58] Ruka**
Let's stay like this for a little longer.
**[14:01] Mito**
Okay.
**[14:02] Founder**
Good grief. At this rate,
you'll both be late.
**[14:06] Founder**
As the leader of the vampires,
tardiness is unacceptable.
**[14:11] Founder**
If you're going to flirt,
keep it to nighttime.
**[14:14] Ruka**
What do you mean only at night?!
**[14:16] Ruka**
We weren't doing anything, anyway!
**[14:18] Ruka**
Besides, I've already decided
I won't do anything until we get married.
**[14:22] Mito**
Ruka.
**[14:23] Ruka**
So don't worry, Mito.
**[14:25] Founder**
I said, you're going to be late.
**[14:27] Founder**
My goodness...
**[14:29] Founder**
And to think I'll be departing today.
**[14:32] Mito**
What?!
**[14:33] Ruka**
Why all of a sudden?
**[14:35] Founder**
I must return home in order to prepare
for your wedding and the leader induction.
**[14:41] Mito {M}**
*Come to think of it, Komori-san—*
**[14:43] Mito {M}**
* I mean, Founder... is the head*
* of the vampires, isn't he?*
**[14:48] Founder**
Will you be lonely without me here?
**[14:50] Ruka**
Why would I?!
**[14:52] Founder**
Ruka, don't let your guard down.
**[14:55] Founder**
There are those other than Rotis
**[14:57] Founder**
who are not fond of making someone
as young as you the next leader.
**[15:03] Ruka**
Yeah, yeah.
**[15:04] Founder**
It's not just you. Mito might
be put in harm's way, as well.
**[15:09] Ruka**
I understand.
**[15:11] Founder**
Well, then.
**[15:14] Mito**
Take care!
**[15:17] Mito {M}**
*Huh? Wait.*
**[15:19] Mito {M}**
* Does this mean I'm going to be*
* alone with Ruka from now on?*
**[15:24] Mito {M}**
*We're definitely going to be flirting!*
**[15:28] Ruka {M}**
*Mito might be in harm's way.*
**[15:30] Ruka {M}**
*I'll make sure that doesn't happen. For sure.*
**[15:37] Mito**
Ruka, I'll go on ahead.
**[15:39] Ruka**
Wait up. I'm going with you.
**[15:43] Ruka**
Here.
**[15:44] Mito**
Huh? What?
**[15:46] Ruka**
We're going holding hands.
**[15:47] Mito**
What?!
**[15:48] Mito**
If people find out I'm a woman at school,
we can't stay here together anymore!
**[15:53] Mito**
Besides...
**[15:55] Ruka**
Just because we're holding hands
**[15:57] Ruka**
doesn't mean people will
find out you're a woman.
**[16:00] Mito**
Well, yeah, but...
**[16:02] Ruka**
Just until we get to school, okay?
**[16:08] Mito**
Okay.
**[16:11] Takara**
Morning!
**[16:12] Juri**
Morning, Mito.
**[16:14] Juri**
Are you... feeling better?
**[16:19] Mito**
Morning, you guys!
**[16:20] Takara**
Huh? Are you guys...
**[16:22] Ruka**
I love Mito, so we're going out now.
**[16:26] Takara**
Wha?!
**[16:27] Ruka**
You got a problem?
**[16:29] Mito**
Ruka! You're being too forward about it!
**[16:32] Ruka**
It's fine around these guys, isn't it?
**[16:34] Takara**
Yeah, you're right... if you love them...
**[16:39] Teacher**
Oh, Yamamoto!
**[16:41] Teacher**
Out of the hospital?
**[16:43] Mito**
Oh.
**[16:43] Mito {M}**
* That's right. They told*
* everyone I was hospitalized.*
**[16:47] Mito**
Yes.
**[16:48] Teacher**
The standard exams are coming up,
but are you going to be okay?
**[16:52] Mito**
What?
**[16:53] Teacher**
Your quiz scores were low to begin with.
**[16:58] Teacher**
If you fail, you'll have to take
extra lessons on your day off.
**[17:01] Teacher**
So study hard.
**[17:03] Mito**
Oh, man...
**[17:05] Juri**
Wanna study for the exam together, then?
**[17:08] Mito**
Huh?
**[17:08] Ruka**
Leave the teaching to me.
**[17:11] Juri**
Come to think of it, you always
do get good scores, Ruka.
**[17:14] Ruka**
Of course!
**[17:15] Ruka**
Komori used to threaten me
**[17:16] Ruka**
by saying he'd destroy my
*Love Magi* figures if I ever failed.
**[17:20] Ruka**
That's why I used to cram
the night before every time!
**[17:23] Mito**
That doesn't help at all.
**[17:26] Takara**
Then how about we go to the library
after school and study together?
**[17:30] Mito**
Yes, please.
**[17:33] Ruka**
We'll drill it into ya.
**[17:35] Mito {M}**
*I came back here, too.*
**[17:38] Mito {M}**
*Ruka is here,*
**[17:40] Mito {M}**
*Juri and Takara are here too, and...*
**[17:43] Mito {M}**
* This is another special*
* place where I belong.*
**[17:56] Mito**
Ren, you're just leaving without a word?
**[18:08] Ren**
Well, you did show me your
unwavering love for Ruka.
**[18:13] Ren**
Besides that...
**[18:16] Ren**
I was too ashamed to see you.
**[18:18] Ren**
In order to have you, I used a lot
of underhanded moves and force.
**[18:24] Ren**
I'm truly sorry.
**[18:27] Mito**
Well, that's...
**[18:31] Mito**
What are you going to do now?
**[18:33] Ren**
Well...
**[18:35] Ren**
I think I'm going to reflect
on how I lost to Ruka.
**[18:39] Ren**
See ya.
**[18:40] Mito**
Wait, Ren!
**[18:43] Mito**
Let me just say one thing.
**[18:46] Mito**
Thank you for protecting me this whole time.
**[18:54] Ren**
I don't regret falling in love with you.
**[18:58] Ren**
I'm also grateful to you for
showing me how to love someone.
**[19:05] Ren**
You don't have a parting gift?
**[19:07] Mito**
Oh! Sorry, I didn't prepare anything.
**[19:11] Mito**
Besides, I didn't know
you were going to leave—
**[19:19] Mito**
W-Wha, wha...
**[19:24] Ren**
Don't tell Ruka.
**[19:28] Ren {M}**
*I wish you happiness, Yamamoto.*
**[19:38] Mito {M}**
*Take care, Ren.*
**[19:42] Juri**
Mito! We're going to the library!
**[19:45] Mito**
Yeah!
**[19:46] Mito**
Hey, where's my notebook?
**[19:49] Ruka**
Did you forget it back at the dorm?
**[19:51] Mito**
No, I had it in class, so...
**[19:55] Takara**
We'll meet you guys at the library!
**[19:57] Juri**
We'll save seats!
**[19:59] Ruka**
All right!
**[20:03] Juri**
So, those two are...
**[20:06] Takara**
Yeah, sure was surprising, wasn't it?
**[20:08] Juri**
I already knew, though.
**[20:10] Takara**
What? I didn't notice it at all.
**[20:14] Juri**
That seems to be a common thing
with you, Takara.
**[20:19] (Flashback) Juri {Flashback}**
Whenever I saw you ogling
some girl, I always thought...
**[20:26] (Flashback) Juri {Flashback}**
How much I like you more
than any of those girls!
**[20:32] Takara {M}**
* I didn't notice Juri's*
* feelings at all, either.*
**[20:38] Takara {M}**
* Even the answer I was*
* supposed to give then...*
**[20:40] Takara {M}**
*I played it off,*
**[20:42] Takara {M}**
*I'm still running from it,*
**[20:44] Takara {M}**
*and I haven't made anything right yet.*
**[20:51] Takara**
Juri, there's something
I've been meaning to tell you.
**[20:58] Takara**
I'm sorry I didn't properly give you
an answer during the bonfire.
**[21:04] Takara**
I wasn't sure how I should
answer your feelings.
**[21:09] Takara**
I kept thinking about
what I should say, and...
**[21:13] Juri**
Takara...
**[21:15] Juri**
I'm okay with you liking those girls.
**[21:20] Takara**
What?
**[21:21] Juri**
It made me happy when you left
those girls to come after me.
**[21:31] Juri**
That's more than enough for me, so...
**[21:35] Juri**
treat me as your friend,
like you've always have.
**[21:39] Takara**
Juri...
**[21:41] Takara**
I'm...
**[21:43] Juri**
Come on.
**[21:45] Juri**
We have to hurry or all the seats
are going to be taken.
**[21:53] Juri**
Takara?
**[22:01] Takara**
Yeah.
**[22:07] Mito**
It's not here!
**[22:09] Mito**
Oh, where could it have gone?
**[22:12] Mito**
Huh?
**[22:17] Mito**
Ruka!
**[22:20] Mito**
We're at school!
**[22:24] Ruka**
No one will find out like this, right?
**[22:26] Mito**
That's not the point!
**[22:28] Ruka**
Let me just enjoy feeling superior
**[22:30] Ruka**
for being the only one who
knows your secret, all right?
**[22:34] Mito**
Geez...
**[22:36] Mito {M}**
*Oh, what should I do? I'm feeling too happy.*
**[22:42] Mito**
All right.
**[22:52] Mito {M}**
* I bet right now, my soul*
* and body are nice and ripe...*
**[23:10] Teacher**
Uh, I know this is sudden,
but there's a transfer student
**[23:13] Teacher**
who'll be your new classmate,
and I'd like to introduce him.
**[23:15] Classmates {Background}**
What, seriously?!
**[23:16] Classmates {Background}**
What kind of guy is he?
