Lord Riku, I'd like to return this to you.
**[00:36] Riku**
Are you done with it?
***SIGN*** PIRATE

***SIGN*** BOUNTY HUNTERS' AGENT –
CORPSE DEALER JYUBEI
**[00:37] Jyubei**
Yes.
**[00:38] Jyubei**
The Rainbow Pearl
has gotten me more bounties,
**[00:41] Jyubei**
and it's allowed me to make big profits.
**[00:44] Riku**
Is that so?
**[00:45] Riku**
That's good to hear.
**[00:47] Riku**
*I suppose I should start making my move.*
**[01:05] Riku**
Here it is.
***SIGN*** ONE OF THE FOUR PERILS – KONTON
**[01:25] Konton**
You! Do not step on that.
**[01:27] Riku**
Oh my goodness, I am terribly sorry.
**[01:33] Riku**
Sir Konton, you sure seem to
be taking your time.
**[01:36] Konton**
What did you say?
**[01:38] Riku**
The Half-Demon Princesses keep defeating you,
and you've barely lifted a finger.
**[01:42] Riku**
Are you fine with that?
**[01:46] Konton**
This might be beyond your comprehension,
but I am preparing a field right now.
**[01:51] Riku**
A field?
**[01:52] Konton**
An eight field escape trap.
It's based on Fang magic.
**[01:57] Konton**
However, I can't decide on the keystone.
**[01:59] Konton**
It's an affixed focal point for power.
**[02:04] Riku**
Do you want to be it?
**[02:05] Riku**
Oh no, I'm not strong enough
for the task.
**[02:08] Riku**
Perhaps it'd be best
if you fulfilled that role yourself.
**[02:11] Konton**
I need to be controlling the field.
**[02:14] Riku**
Then, how about Mister Totetsu?
**[02:17] Konton**
Totetsu, you say?
**[02:20] Konton**
That glutton, huh...
**[02:22] Riku**
Of Lord Kirinmaru's Four Perils,
**[02:25] Riku**
you and Mister Totetsu are
the only ones remaining.
**[02:29] Riku**
Why not work together once in a while?
**[02:31] Konton**
I don't know where he is or what he's doing.
**[02:35] Riku**
Please, leave that matter to me.
I'll look for him and bring him here.
**[02:39] Konton**
If you want to bring someone here,
bring the Half-Demon Princesses.
**[02:42] Konton**
This field is useless
unless someone lures them in.
**[02:47] Riku**
All right, I'll think of plan for that, too.
**[02:51] Konton**
You're being quite generous.
**[02:54] Riku**
Lord Kirinmaru's wish
is for the Rainbow Pearls
**[02:57] Riku**
to be stolen from the Half-Demon Princesses.
**[02:59] Riku**
I hope you haven't forgotten about that.
**[03:03] Konton**
I assure you, I haven't.
**[03:07] Konton**
Totetsu as the keystone...

***SIGN*** HALF-DEMON GIRL – TOWA HIGURASHI
**[04:55] Towa Higurashi**
What?! This isn't Mount Musubi?
**[04:58] Farmer**
I heard over at the village
that this is Mount Musubi.
**[05:01] Farmer**
This is Mount Omusubi.
**[05:03] Towa Higurashi**
*Omusubi*?
**[05:05] Farmer**
See, look at that.
**[05:06] Farmer**
Doesn't that mountain look tasty?
***SIGN*** DEMON SLAYER –
SETSUNA
**[05:11] Towa Higurashi**
So where's Mount Musubi?
**[05:14] Farmer**
Never heard of a mountain with that name.
**[05:18] Towa Higurashi**
Are you kidding me...
***SIGN*** CAT DEMON – KIRARA
**[05:23] Setsuna**
Such a big misunderstanding.
**[05:25] Towa Higurashi**
You're acting like it's not your problem.
**[05:27] Towa Higurashi**
If we don't catch the Dream Butterfly,
we can't get your sleep back.
**[05:31] Setsuna**
I have no issues with that.
**[05:35] Setsuna**
Let's start heading back.
**[05:38] Towa Higurashi**
Dream Butterfly, where the heck are you?
**[05:48] Zero**
Two of the Four Perils have been defeated,
and you still won't do anything?
**[05:54] Zero**
You were supposed to kill
Sesshomaru's daughters for me.
**[05:58] Kirinmaru**
Was I?
**[06:00] Zero**
Yes, you were.
***SIGN*** BEAST KING RULING THE FOUR PERILS – KIRINMARU
**[06:02] Kirinmaru**
Riku seems to be on the move.
**[06:05] Zero**
You're leaving things to him?
***SIGN*** MYSTERIOUS BEAUTIFUL DEMON – ZERO
**[06:07] Kirinmaru**
He is my most trusted retainer.
It will be fine.
**[06:11] Zero**
Such an indolent person...
***SIGN*** CORPSE DEALER
**[06:31] Takechiyo**
Hey.
**[06:32] Takechiyo**
There's still some dust here.
**[06:34] Moroha**
Geez, shut up.
**[06:36] Moroha**
Mister Jyubei, don't you have
proper bounty hunting jobs for me?
**[06:40] Jyubei**
Clearly, there aren't any.
***SIGN*** YOUNG RACCOON DOG DEMON – TAKECHIYO
**[06:42] Takechiyo**
Get your hands moving! Or else you won't
even make enough for today's meal.
***SIGN*** BOUNTY HUNTER – MOROHA
**[06:47] Moroha**
I can't believe you're using me like this!
**[06:51] Moroha**
I'm the kind who can
make you loads of money!
**[06:53] Takechiyo**
I still think you were just lucky.
**[06:56] Moroha**
Shut up, you little racoon dog.
**[06:58] Takechiyo**
Whatever, you're just a quarter-demon!
**[07:00] Riku**
Hello there.
**[07:02] Riku**
What are we celebrating?
**[07:03] Jyubei**
Lord Riku, what business do you have today?
**[07:07] Riku**
The thing is... Oh, you're here.
**[07:11] Riku**
My dear bounty hunter.
**[07:13] Moroha**
Huh? Me?
**[07:15] Riku**
How's the slaying of the Four Perils going?
**[07:17] Riku**
If I remember correctly,
I left quite the hefty sum.
**[07:21] Moroha**
If it were up to me, I would've gone to
slay them myself and get that bounty,
**[07:25] Moroha**
and then *bam*, my debts would be paid,
I would breathe easy...
**[07:30] Moroha**
But I have no idea where they ran off to.
**[07:33] Riku**
My, I thought that might be the case.
**[07:36] Riku**
So I heard a rumor regarding Totetsu.
**[07:40] Moroha**
Totetsu! The one who
goes around eating monks.
**[07:43] Riku**
That's the one.
I heard that someone saw him.
**[07:48] Moroha**
If you know where he is,
then leave the rest to me.
**[07:50] Riku**
Where are the demon slayer girls?
**[07:52] Moroha**
Probably in the village.
Let's go, Takechiyo.
**[07:56] Takechiyo**
Wait, why do I have to go?
**[07:58] Jyubei**
Go help them.
**[07:59] Takechiyo**
Okay.
**[08:12] Towa Higurashi**
The Tree of Ages
hasn't come out since then.
**[08:20] Towa Higurashi**
She's the one who told us to slay Kirinmaru,
but I wonder if she gave up.
**[08:25] Towa Higurashi**
Or maybe, since we're defeating
Kirinmaru's underlings anyway,
**[08:30] Towa Higurashi**
she's just watching over us?
**[08:33] Towa Higurashi**
Instead of Kirinmaru, I would much rather...
**[08:49] Moroha**
There you are.
**[08:50] Moroha**
Hey!
**[08:54] Towa Higurashi**
Takechiyo? I wonder what's up? Huh?
**[08:58] Towa Higurashi**
Why is Riku with them?
**[09:02] Moroha**
We know where Totetsu is,
so let's go slay him.
**[09:06] Towa Higurashi**
How did you find out?
**[09:07] Riku**
Some pirate friends of mine
gave me information.
**[09:11] Moroha**
Come on, let's go.
**[09:13] Towa Higurashi**
Are you fine with that?
**[09:15] Moroha**
What do you mean?
**[09:17] Towa Higurashi**
We're getting closer to slaying Kirinmaru,
which is what the Tree of Ages wants us to do.
**[09:22] Moroha**
As long as I can make money,
I'm fine with it.
**[09:25] Towa Higurashi**
Instead of Kirinmaru, I want to find
the Dream Butterfly first.
**[09:29] Riku**
Oh, that's right.
**[09:31] Riku**
Lady Towa, you were looking
for the Dream Butterfly?
**[09:34] Riku**
This is also a rumor I heard
from my pirate friends,
**[09:38] Riku**
but Kirinmaru and the Dream Butterfly
are connected somehow.
**[09:43] Towa Higurashi**
Really?
**[09:44] Riku**
Well, it's only a rumor.
**[09:47] Towa Higurashi**
So where is Kirinmaru?
**[09:50] Riku**
I actually still don't know.
**[09:53] Riku**
But if you keep defeating his underlings,
I think he will come out on his own.
**[09:58] Towa Higurashi**
I see. Then what are we waiting for?
**[10:01] Moroha**
Yeah! Big bounty, here I come!
**[10:04] Towa Higurashi**
Setsuna.
**[10:22] Setsuna**
All right.
**[10:28] Riku**
He should be east, near the river.
I heard that's where Totetsu was last.
**[10:33] Moroha**
Hurry up, Takechiyo.
**[10:36] Takechiyo**
I've never had to carry
so many people before.
**[10:39] Towa Higurashi**
Riku, why do you know about Kirinmaru?
**[10:42] Riku**
Well, it seems like he has something I want.
**[10:46] Towa Higurashi**
A Rainbow Pearl?
**[10:48] Riku**
Something much more valuable.
**[10:50] Moroha**
What? What kind of treasure is it?
**[10:53] Riku**
Let's just say it'll be
more fun if it's a surprise.
**[11:06] Towa Higurashi**
What's going on?
**[11:07] Moroha**
A virtuous monk lives in that temple there.
**[11:10] Setsuna**
Has Totetsu decided to show himself?
**[11:13] Towa Higurashi**
Is he here to eat the monk?
**[11:15] Moroha**
Hurry, Takechiyo.
**[11:20] Totetsu**
Hup.
***SIGN*** ONE OF THE FOUR PERILS – TOTETSU
**[11:24] Totetsu**
I'm going to eat you! Here I go!
**[11:30] Totetsu**
Geez, you really don't look tasty at all.
But I'm going to eat you!
**[11:36] Buddhist Monk**
Someone help!
**[11:38] Totetsu**
How long do I have to do this for?
**[11:42] Totetsu**
I don't even want to eat
this gross-looking monk.
**[11:46] Towa Higurashi**
Stop it, Totetsu!
**[11:49] Towa Higurashi**
Let that monk go!
**[11:52] Totetsu**
You finally showed up,
you poisonous half-demons.
**[11:56] Totetsu**
You must be really dumb.
**[11:58] Towa Higurashi**
What?
**[11:59] Totetsu**
Why do I have to let go of this monk?
**[12:02] Towa Higurashi**
Um, because he's a hostage?
And if you don't let him go...
**[12:07] Setsuna**
We will cut everything without mercy.
**[12:09] Towa Higurashi**
But the monk...
**[12:11] Setsuna**
If he gets dragged in,
luck was simply not on his side.
**[12:15] Buddhist Monk**
What?!
**[12:16] Totetsu**
Come and get me then.
**[12:18] Setsuna**
Steel yourself.
**[12:19] Towa Higurashi**
Setsuna, that monk...
**[12:22] Buddhist Monk**
H-Help me!
**[12:32] Moroha**
What?
**[12:35] Buddhist Monk**
H-Help me!
**[12:45] Moroha**
What?
**[12:48] Towa Higurashi**
Moroha!
**[13:01] Takechiyo**
What's going on?
**[13:18] Moroha**
Get back here!
**[13:20] Moroha**
Takechiyo, don't just stand there! Let's go!
**[13:23] Takechiyo**
You're working me too hard!
**[13:25] Moroha**
Towa, Setsuna, jump on.
**[13:28] Takechiyo**
Okay, hang on tight!
**[13:32] Buddhist Monk**
Was I saved?
**[13:35] Totetsu**
Catch me if you can!
**[13:36] Moroha**
Come back here!
**[13:56] Moroha**
Takechiyo!
**[14:06] Takechiyo**
Th-They disappeared.
**[14:36] Takechiyo**
What's going on?
**[14:39] Riku**
They've entered the field.
**[14:41] Takechiyo**
What's that?
**[14:43] Riku**
I don't even know
how this is going to turn out.
**[14:47] Riku**
The Rainbow Pearl will lead the way,
I suppose.
**[14:54] Towa Higurashi**
I thought we were in a ravine,
but it's pretty wide.
**[14:57] Setsuna**
Where's Totetsu?
**[14:59] Towa Higurashi**
And Moroha, too.
**[15:02] Towa Higurashi**
Let's try going there first.
**[15:06] Moroha**
Get back here!
**[15:10] Moroha**
You're being a sore loser, Totetsu!
**[15:13] Moroha**
Crimson Dragon Wave!
**[15:19] Moroha**
Huh?
**[15:23] Moroha**
Was that an illusion that I just cut?
**[15:43] Moroha**
Setsuna! Towa!
**[15:46] Towa Higurashi**
Something's wrong.
**[15:48] Towa Higurashi**
We don't seem to be getting any closer.
**[15:51] Setsuna**
And Moroha and Totetsu
are nowhere to be found.
**[15:54] Towa Higurashi**
Moroha!
**[15:57] Towa Higurashi**
Moroha!
**[16:00] Towa Higurashi**
Moroha!
**[16:04] Setsuna**
Let's go a little further.
**[16:18] Moroha**
How deep does this ravine go?
**[16:22] Moroha**
Hey, it can't be this deep, right?
**[16:51] Konton**
Through the gate of opening,
trapped in the gate of surprise.
**[16:55] Konton**
And now, the two
are at the gate of rest...
**[17:00] Setsuna**
This is strange.
**[17:01] Towa Higurashi**
Yeah. We're not getting closer at all.
Should we head back?
**[17:08] Towa Higurashi**
Did we walk this far?
**[17:10] Setsuna**
We may have been captured
in some kind of spell.
**[17:14] Towa Higurashi**
A spell?
**[17:16] Setsuna**
It's not just Totetsu we're after.
**[17:19] Towa Higurashi**
Konton. He was someone
who used strange spells.
**[17:24] Setsuna**
Towa, cut me with your katana.
**[17:27] Towa Higurashi**
What?
**[17:29] Setsuna**
I said, cut me.
**[17:31] Towa Higurashi**
Why would I do that? There's no way I can.
**[17:34] Setsuna**
I see.
**[17:41] Towa Higurashi**
Setsuna?
**[17:52] Setsuna**
I thought I would wake up
if this was an illusion spell,
**[17:55] Setsuna**
but I guess things aren't so simple.
**[17:58] Towa Higurashi**
Why did you do that?!
**[17:59] Setsuna**
You're too soft, Towa.
**[18:01] Setsuna**
It's not necessarily your fault
that you lack training,
**[18:05] Setsuna**
but earlier, when we were fighting Totetsu,
he read your facial expression
**[18:10] Setsuna**
and figured out that Moroha was behind him.
**[18:12] Towa Higurashi**
But...
**[18:13] Setsuna**
Do not underestimate this era.
**[18:19] Setsuna**
So, what next? If this is not
an illusion, then what is this spell?
**[18:24] Towa Higurashi**
Setsuna, wait here, okay?
**[18:26] Setsuna**
What is it?
Are we splitting up?
**[18:29] Towa Higurashi**
I'm going to use you as a guide. Don't move.
**[19:01] Moroha**
How's that?
**[19:11] Moroha**
What the heck is going on?
**[19:14] Moroha**
But...
**[19:25] Moroha**
Damn it.
**[19:37] Towa Higurashi**
This tree...
**[19:40] Towa Higurashi**
But this tree was supposed to be behind me.
**[19:43] Towa Higurashi**
Setsuna? Setsuna?
**[19:50] Konton**
From the gate of surprise,
to the gate of death.
**[19:53] Towa Higurashi**
Wait, okay, calm down.
**[20:02] Towa Higurashi**
I smell Setsuna's blood.
**[20:09] Towa Higurashi**
Setsuna!
**[20:10] Towa Higurashi**
Setsuna!
**[20:12] Towa Higurashi**
Setsuna!
**[20:14] Setsuna**
Behind me?
**[20:15] Towa Higurashi**
Setsuna!
**[20:17] Setsuna**
Why are you behind me?
I haven't moved at all.
**[20:20] Towa Higurashi**
Konton's spell twists the space around us
and it's making us go in circles.
**[20:27] Setsuna**
She disappeared.
**[20:28] Towa Higurashi**
It's a Möbius strip.
**[20:29] Setsuna**
A what?
**[20:30] Towa Higurashi**
If we can't physically escape this trap,
**[20:34] Towa Higurashi**
we just have to sever the circle itself.
**[20:37] Setsuna**
If you want me to cut something,
I can, but where?
**[20:40] Towa Higurashi**
I don't know if we can see it,
but is there a nexus of the spell somewhere?
**[20:45] Setsuna**
We can if it's a rift of demon energy.
**[20:48] Towa Higurashi**
What does that mean?
**[20:50] Setsuna**
I heard that our clan can sniff out
where rifts of demon energies clash.
**[20:56] Setsuna**
And we can cut through that.
**[20:59] Towa Higurashi**
Sniff out?
**[21:00] Setsuna**
I'll try it.
**[21:18] Setsuna**
This smell.
**[21:19] Towa Higurashi**
Konton!
**[21:37] Setsuna**
He's close.
**[21:38] Towa Higurashi**
Yeah.
**[21:41] Konton**
What?
**[21:56] Konton**
How dare you.
**[21:57] Konton**
Disgusting.
***SIGN*** NEXT EPISODE PREVIEW
**[23:31] Setsuna**
We found you, Konton, prepare yourself!
**[23:34] Towa Higurashi**
But where did Totetsu go?
**[23:36] Moroha**
Is he planning to run to the seas?
**[23:38] Towa Higurashi**
He must be running for help from
his higher-up, Kirinmaru.
**[23:42] Moroha**
Higher-up?
**[23:43] Towa Higurashi**
Someone above his rank.
**[23:44] Moroha**
Then that'd be the boss, wouldn't it?
**[23:46] Moroha**
How many mon coins do you think
that Kirinmaru boss is worth?
**[23:49] Setsuna**
Wait, who is that?
**[23:51] Towa Higurashi**
Next time on *Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon*:
"Sesshomaru and Kirinmaru"
**[23:55] Towa Higurashi**
What? That person is Sesshomaru?
