[02:26] Juri
    It's early in the new semester.
    I wonder what's going on.
[02:28] Takara
    Yeah, we got called in outta nowhere.
[02:31] Mito
    And telling us to wear comfortable
    clothes to move in, too.
[02:37] Komori
    Okay, everyone, pay attention.
[02:40] Komori
    At this time, I would like to announce that
    Café La Fraise will be undergoing renovations!
[02:46] Komori
    In order for our customers to
     further enjoy themselves here,
[02:49] Komori
    La Fraise will be making some changes.
[02:52] Juri
    Sounds good. It's important
    to change things up, right?
[02:55] Takara
    It's exciting when the atmosphere changes.
[03:01] Mito {M}
    The atmosphere...
[03:06] Senpai B
    Does that mean we're
    closed during renovations?
[03:09] Komori
    However.
[03:11] Komori
    In order to save money, I'm having
    everyone work on DIY projects.
[03:15] All Seven
    What?!
[03:16] Juri
    How do you expect us amateurs to do that?
[03:20] Senpai B
    That's right!
[03:21] Komori
    No worries!
[03:22] Komori
    I have everything planned out right here.
[03:25] Mito
    Let's see.

     would enjoy more..."

    Fated, my ass. This is on purpose, you bastard.
[03:37] Mito {M}
    Ruka hasn't mentioned
    the girl me, but...
[03:46] Ruka
    Oh, is that...
[03:51] Female Customer1
    Um, is the café open yet?
[03:55] Ruka
    Oh...
[03:56] Ruka
    We're renovating, so we'll
    be closed for a while.
[03:59] Female Customer1
    What, really?!
[04:01] Ruka
    Sorry about that.
[04:03] Female Customer1
    Um, I'll come again!
[04:10] Mito {M}
    If only I could tell him that
    I'm the girl from the other day...
[04:16] Ruka
    Mito?
[04:24] Komori
    Now, everyone.
[04:26] Komori
    Let's first take all the furniture outside.
[04:28] Mito
    Y-Yes, sir!
[04:29] At Once
    Okay.
[04:35] Mito
    Okay. Here I go!
[04:44] Mito
    Ren!
[04:45] Ren
    I'll carry the heavy stuff.
[04:47] Komori
    You're here to earn some
    easy money, aren't you?
[04:50] Ren
    That's not the only reason.
[04:58] Mito {M}
    Ren and I...
[05:03] Mito
    A-All right!
[05:05] Mito
    Let's keep carrying stuff out!

    Hmm. We'll use wood and acrylic

[05:19] Juri
    This is all normal stuff.
[05:21] Mito
    I want to try painting!
[05:23] Juri
    Sure, that's fine.
[05:24] Takara
    Then I'll go get the paint!
[05:26] Mito
    Thanks!
[05:28] Mito {M}
    This is just like a school
    cultural festival. It's fun!
[05:31] Juri
    Hey, Mito.
[05:34] Juri
    Did something happen between you
    and Ren over summer break?
[05:38] Juri
    I knew it!
[05:40] Juri
    What was it?! What happened?!
[05:42] Mito
    It's nothing that's worth
    mentioning, but you see...
[05:48] Juri
    What?! He confessed to you?!
[05:51] Mito
    Shh! Shh!
[05:53] Mito
    He said he doesn't care that I'm a man.
[05:56] Mito
    But I like Ruka, so...
[05:59] Takara
    Hey, Mito!
[06:01] Mito
    Takara!
[06:02] Takara
    Here, take the paint and—
[06:08] Takara
    Oh, man! Sorry, Mito!
[06:10] Juri
    What are you doing, Takara?!
[06:11] Ren
    Yamamoto!
[06:17] Mito
    Ruka.
[06:18] Ruka
    Here. Wear this, Mito.
[06:21] Mito
    T-Thanks.
[06:24] Ruka
    It'll be hard to get it off if it gets
    on your skin, so hurry and change.
[06:28] Mito
    Okay.
[06:29] Mito {M}
    Wait?!
[06:30] Mito {M}
    By "change," did he mean in front of everyone?!
[06:35] Ruka
    What's wrong?
[06:36] Mito
    Huh?! I mean... changing here's a bit...
[06:39] Ruka
    Is there a problem?
[06:41] Mito {M}
    Of course there's a problem!
[06:48] Ren
    Even if we're all men, if he doesn't
    want to, he doesn't want to.
[06:51] Mito
    Ren.
[06:52] Ren
    Change behind me.
[06:54] Mito
    Thanks...
[07:05] Juri
    Stop!
[07:06] Juri
    We're running low on paint
    because of what just happened,
[07:09] Juri
    so could you three go buy some more?
[07:13] Mito
    Huh?
[07:20] Mito {M}
    This is super awkward.
[07:23] Mito
    Um...
[07:24] Mito
    Let's go to the paint section!
[07:28] Mito
    Ow!
[07:30] Mito
    What?
[07:36] Mito
    Ruka?
[07:37] Ruka
    Mito, you gotta be careful!
[07:41] Mito
    Sorry.
[07:46] Ruka {M}
    Why does Mito look like that girl?
[07:50] Mito
    Ruka?
[07:53] Ruka
    Did you put on some weight?
[07:55] Mito
    You idiot! Screw you!
[08:00] Ren
    Hey.
[08:01] Ren
    You were with a girl at the park
    the other day, weren't you?
[08:05] Ruka
    Why do you know that?!
[08:07] Ren
    If you found a girl you like,
    then back off Yamamoto.
[08:12] Ruka
    What?!
[08:13] Ren
    He's lived a lonely life, and
    you're the only one he can rely on.
[08:17] Ren
    And yet...
[08:19] Ren
    If you're into someone else,
    it's only going to upset him!
[08:24] Ruka
    There was nothing I could do...
[08:26] Ruka
    I met her... My destined partner.
[08:31] Ren {M}
    That woman was his destined partner?!
[08:37] Ruka
    If I were to bring her home,
[08:40] Ruka
    they would officially acknowledge me
    as the vampire world's leader.
[08:44] Ren {M}
    Yamamoto is Ruka's destined partner?!
[08:48] Ruka
    When I first became a vampire, I didn't know
    anyone in the human world. I was lonely.
[08:56] (Flashback) Girl
    Hey.
[08:58] (Flashback) Girl
    Why are you always by yourself?
[09:01] (Flashback) Young Ruka
    Shut up and go away!
[09:04] (Flashback) Young Ruka
    See my fangs?! I'll eat you!
[09:06] (Flashback) Girl
    Tag!
[09:07] (Flashback) Girl
    Then you're it, okay?
[09:09] (Flashback) Young Ruka
    Huh?!
[09:10] Ruka {M}
    She approached me
    without any hesitation.
[09:15] Ruka {M}
    That was the very first time
    I spoke from my heart.
[09:19] Ruka {M}
    But...
[09:22] (Flashback) Ruka
    Are you okay?!
[09:23] (Flashback) Girl
    Ow!
[09:24] (Flashback) Girl
    I fell.
[09:39] (Flashback) Girl
    Why are you drinking my blood...
[09:46] Ruka {M}
    After that, she never appeared
    in front of me again.
[09:52] Ruka
    Since then, I vowed to never drink
    women's blood and to never fall in love,
[09:59] Ruka
    but as soon as I saw my destined partner...
[10:02] Ruka
    I felt the urge to make her mine.
[10:06] Ren {M}
    He's serious about the girl
    Yamamoto he met the other day!
[10:10] Ren {M}
    If her secret gets out, Yamamoto
    will be taken to the vampire world!
[10:16] Ren {M}
    A destined partner...
[10:18] Ren {M}
    My mother was called the same thing
    and followed my vampire father.
[10:23] Ren {M}
    I don't want him to take Yamamoto away!
[10:26] Ren
    In that case...
[10:27] Ren
    You're just friends with Yamamoto, aren't you?
[10:31] Ren
    I confessed to Yamamoto that I like him!
[10:33] Ren
    And I really do like him!
[10:37] Ren
    It doesn't matter whether
    he's a man or a woman!
[10:39] Ren
    My feelings are different
    from your fickle kindness.
[10:43] Ren
    I'll protect him alone, with all my might!
[10:50] Ren {M}
    I won't let Ruka find out
    Yamamoto's a woman!
[10:57] Mito
    Huh?
[10:59] Ren
    Yamamoto.
[11:01] Mito
    Uh, what's up?
[11:03] Ren {M}
    If he finds out, he'll take her away.
[11:06] Ren {M}
    And so, I'll...
[11:09] Mito
    Ren...
[11:16] Juri
    The smaller details aren't finished yet.
[11:19] Takara
    There's no way we'll be able to open tomorrow!
[11:26] Ruka
    You'll catch a cold if you sleep here.
[11:29] (Flashback) Ren {Flashback}
    My feelings are different
    from your fickle kindness.
[11:37] Mito
    What's up, Ruka?
[11:40] Senpai B
    There's no point in rushing it.
[11:41] Senpai B
    Let's get some rest in shifts.
[11:43] Takara
    Heck yeah!
[11:44] Juri
    Then, why don't you two get
     some rest first, Ruka and Mito?
[11:47] Ruka
    Oh, uh, sure.
[11:49] Ren
    I'm going with them, then.
[11:51] Mito And Ruka
    Ren?!
[11:53] Juri
    Then you three rest first.
[11:55] Juri
    We'll switch in two hours.
[11:58] Mito {M}
    Um... How did it end up like this?
[12:03] Mito {M}
    No matter which way I face, it's so awkward!
[12:07] Mito {M}
    I wonder if Ren's asleep.
[12:10] Ruka
    Mito.
[12:11] Mito
    What?
[12:13] Ruka
    Mito, what do you think of Ren?
[12:18] Mito
    Huh?
[12:20] Mito
    I mean, he's always looking out for me...
[12:23] Mito
    He's a really good guy.
[12:25] Mito
    Why do you ask?
[12:27] Ruka
    I'm not sure.
[12:29] Ruka
    It was just bothering me.
[12:31] Ruka
    Mito, I may have found my "destined partner."
[12:38] Mito
    What?
[12:40] Ruka
    She had beautiful eyes and
    felt nostalgic to me, somehow.
[12:45] Ruka
    At first glance, I felt like it must be fate.
[12:49] Mito {M}
    I'm...
[12:51] Mito {M}
    Ruka's destined partner?!
[12:53] Mito {M}
    No way.
[12:54] Mito {M}
    Is that possible?
[12:56] Ruka
    Mito.
[12:58] Ruka
    Even if I tie the knot with this woman,
[13:00] Ruka
    could you still support me
    the same way as you have?
[13:04] Mito
    What?
[13:06] Ruka
    I want you to always be by my side.
[13:08] Ruka
    I don't want to lose you.
[13:11] Mito
    Y-Yeah... Of course.
[13:15] Ruka
    Yeah? I'm glad.
[13:18] Ruka
    Let's get some sleep, then.
[13:19] Ruka
    Goodnight, Mito.
[13:21] Mito
    Goodnight.
[13:26] Mito {M}
    I'm happy, and yet...
[13:28] Mito {M}
    somehow it still hurts.
[13:33] Mito
    Huh?
[13:36] Mito
    Ren?
[13:38] Mito {M}
    When Ruka's sleeping next to me...
[13:42] Ren
    Go out with me next Saturday.
[13:45] Ren
    I'll tell you about the humans who've
    become a vampire's "destined partner."
[13:50] Mito
    What?
SIGN    Vampire

[14:00] Mito
    Wow, it's a huge success!
[14:02] Juri
    I'm glad we managed it.
[14:05] Female Customer2
    Excuse me!
[14:06] Female Customer2
    May I order?
[14:08] Mito
    Yes, right awa—
[14:09] Ren
    Yes, what would you like to order?
[14:13] Female Customer2
    Afternoon tea, please.
[14:14] Ren
    Certainly.
[14:21] Ren
    Two noon teas.
[14:23] Senpai A
    Got it!
[14:24] Ruka
    A cake set and a tarte tatin.
[14:26] Senpai A
    Okay.
[14:29] Ruka
    I'm always going to take good care
    of Mito as my best friend.
[14:33] Ruka
    I'm not going to let you tell me
    my kindness is fickle.
[14:37] Ren
    Then as a "best friend,"
    stay out of our business.
[14:43] Ruka {M}
    Mito will always be by my side.
[14:47] Ruka {M}
    As a best friend.
[14:48] Ruka {M}
    That's okay, isn't it?
[14:50] Komori
    Ruka-sama.
[14:52] Ruka
    Komori! Since when did you...
[14:54] Komori
    Actually, I'd like to speak with
     you about something.
[14:57] Ruka
    Speak with me?
[14:58] Komori
    Yes. I received an invitation
    from a certain place, you see.

[15:09] Ren
    We're here.
[15:12] Mito
    What an huge mansion.
[15:14] Ren
    It's my parent's house.
[15:15] Mito
    This massive house?!
[15:17] Ren
    Yeah. It's been a while since I've been home.
[15:20] Mito {M}
    I thought we were the same.
[15:24] Ren
    To be exact, it's my mother's parents' house.
[15:28] Mito
    Your mother...
[15:30] (Flashback) Ren {Flashback}
    I'll tell you about the humans who've
    become a vampire's "destined partner."
[15:37] Mito {M}
    Ren's mother and his
    vampire dad left him behind...
[15:45] Maid A
    Young Master Ren!
[15:47] Maid B
    Have you come home?!
[15:49] Maid C
    We've been waiting!
[15:50] Maid D
    I cannot believe it.

    Y-Young Master?!

    Ren!

    Mom?
[15:58] Reiko
    I'm sorry. I am so sorry for leaving
    you all by yourself for so long!
[16:04] Reiko
    You've grown up so much.
[16:07] Ren
    Mom.
[16:09] Rotis
    Long time no see.
[16:13] Rotis
    It's been ten years, hasn't it?
[16:14] Rotis
    Ren.
[16:16] Ren
    Dad.
[16:17] Maid A
    Now, please come inside!
[16:19] Maid A
    Tomorrow marks the young
    master's 17th birthday.
[16:22] Maid A
    We are preparing for the party.
[16:24] Mito
    Ren, it's your birthday?
[16:26] Reiko
    Then I'll transform this girl
    into a lovely young lady.
[16:32] Mito
    What?
[16:32] Mito
    How did you know that I'm a woman?
[16:36] Reiko
    I have a sharp intuition, is all.
[16:40] Rotis
    Why don't we spend time
    together as a family, then?
[16:46] Rotis
    Besides, I have something
    important to tell you.
[16:52] Reiko
    May I refer to you as Mito-san?
[16:55] Reiko
    Oh, what a joy,
[16:57] Reiko
    to be able to meet our child's lover.
[17:00] Mito
    L-Lover?! U-Um...
[17:03] Mito
    Are you a vampire's "destined partner?"
[17:08] Reiko
    I certainly am.
[17:10] Mito
    How did you feel being loved by a vampire?
[17:15] Mito
    Oh, I'm sorry! We've only just met,
    and I'm pelting you with questions.
[17:21] Reiko
    It's okay.
[17:22] Reiko
    I'll answer you, Mito-san.
[17:25] Reiko
    It's a wonderful thing to become
     a vampire's destined partner.
[17:28] Reiko
    Even if you were to be separated
    from your parents or child.
[17:33] Mito
    What?
[17:35] Reiko
    Well, it means you can stay
    with the person you love.
[17:39] Reiko
    You can become a vampire too and live
    in the Land of the Vampires for eternity!
[17:45] Mito {M}
    Become a vampire?
[17:47] Mito {M}
    Me?
[17:49] Reiko
    It was hard living away from Ren,
    but I have no regrets.
[17:54] Reiko
    You can be with your loved one forever.
[17:57] Reiko
    If that's my fate, then I fully accept it.
[18:00] Mito
    How could you...
[18:03] Reiko
    Come in.
[18:13] Ren
    Yamamoto.
[18:15] Mito
    Ren... I...
[18:30] Rotis
    Now, let the party begin.
[18:35] Ruka
    What's with this sudden
    invitation to a party?
[18:39] Komori
    My apologies. However, I have
    a connection with this family.
[18:47] Rotis
    Everyone. Thank you for taking time out of
    your busy schedules to join us today.
[18:54] Rotis
    My wife and I have been away from Japan
    for some time handling business overseas
[19:00] Rotis
    and only recently returned.
[19:02] Rotis
    Today, we are here for my son Ren,
     heir to the Nikaido Company,
[19:09] Rotis
    and celebrate his engagement.
[19:15] Mito
    Engagement?
[19:20] Mito
    R-Ruka?!
[19:22] Mito
    Why is he...
[19:23] Mito
    No, wait! This isn't...
[19:26] Mito
    Ren?!
[19:28] Ren
    A bride?!
[19:30] (Flashback) Ren
    Yamamoto?
[19:31] (Flashback) Rotis
    That girl is the future bride
    to the vampire world.
[19:35] (Flashback) Rotis
    And for you, my son, to have
     brought her here is quite the big deal.
[19:40] (Flashback) Rotis
    If you steal her from Ruka and marry her,
[19:44] (Flashback) Rotis
    you'll be unshackled from
     your status as dhampir
[19:47] (Flashback) Rotis
    and one day become
    the leader of the vampires.
[19:51] (Flashback) Ren
    Ridiculous. Is that why
    you asked me to come home—
[19:54] (Flashback) Rotis
    Don't you want her?
[19:58] (Flashback) Rotis
    Let me sweeten the deal for you.
[20:00] (Flashback) Rotis
    When dhampirs turn 17 years old,
[20:03] (Flashback) Rotis
    a certain ability will
    awaken to its full potential.
[20:06] (Flashback) Rotis
    Once you utter your wish while drinking her
    blood, you'll get what you want most!
[20:13] Ren {M}
    What I want most...
[20:17] Ren {M}
    If you weren't a woman,
    you wouldn't have been Ruka's.
[20:27] Ren {M}
    So I want to make Yamamoto mine!
[20:34] Mito
    S-Stop!
[20:41] Mito {M}
    What should I do?!
[20:42] Mito {M}
    It happened right in front of Ruka!
[20:52] Ruka
    Mito!
[20:55] Ruka
    Are you all right?
[20:57] Mito
    Ruka...
[20:59] Mito
    Ruka!
[21:01] Mito
    I didn't know anything about this!
[21:03] Mito
    Not about the engagement, nothing!
[21:06] Ruka
    I know...
[21:07] Ruka
    I believe you.
[21:12] (Flashback) Reiko {Flashback}
    ...it means you can stay
    with the person you love.
[21:16] Mito {M}
    If Ruka knows I'm a woman,
[21:19] Mito {M}
    then I could go to
    the vampire world with him?
[21:21] Mito {M}
    But...
[21:22] Ruka
    What's wrong?
[21:23] Ruka
    Does it hurt where he bit you?
[21:26] Mito
    N-No!
[21:27] Mito
    It's nothing!
[21:28] Mito
    This dress is so tight and painful...
[21:30] Ruka
    Geez, that Ren...
[21:32] Ruka
    Can't believe he'd go so far as to dress you
    up like a woman to make you his fiancé.
[21:36] Ruka
    All right, turn around.
[21:38] Mito
    What?!
[21:39] Ruka
    I'll help you get out of this dress.
[21:42] Ruka
    How does this dress work?
[21:44] Mito
    It's okay, I'll do it myself!
[21:46] Ruka
    I'll loosen it, so hold on, will ya?
[21:49] Ruka
    Oh, is it this?
[21:51] Mito
    Ah, no!
[21:58] Mito
    Huh?!
[22:00] Ruka
    What's wrong?
[22:01] Mito {M}
    I-I'm...
[22:05] Mito {M}
    I'm a real man!
