Found you.
Koushiro.
Aki, here's some advice...
Come with me.
If the Kuga catch you,
you'll spend the rest of your life behind bars.
The Hyuga leader says they'd welcome you.
I can't see any reason for you to refuse.
I don't care about the Hyuga.
How many hundreds of years
have you all sat in that tiny village, vying over power?
You have the power of the gods.
Don't you think it's stupid?
A kakashi has about as much power as a lone tank.
It's not like you can take over the world with it.
But you believe it has the power of a god?
You shouldn't take the crap our idiot ancestors told us that seriously...
The never missing Uwazutsu.
But never missing means you can predict
where it will land.
Once you get the timing down, it's easy to dodge.
Then it's time for Kuramitsuha?
Really? Easy, huh?
Now what? Aim at another point?
I never thought moving around the city would be so hard.
It isn't so different from the mountain behind our village.
Koushiro's kakashi can instantaneously appear and attack.
That won't work.
Nowhere for you to hide.
I missed again?
I'm not used to this environment.
He shouldn't be able to see me.
So how's he doing this?
It stinks!
This is the first time he messed up.
Smell?
He must have fallen somewhere really smelly.
Whatever...
Uwazutsu's scent marking won't disappear that easily.
Though I have no proof...
What should I do?
What is this? It stinks!
Did I get him?
Someone interfered?
Who?
It looks different, but it's the same thing...
I know it!
You okay?
So that was you? No one asked for you help.
Without my help, you would have died.
No way.
Where is he?
Lying on the ground, somewhere over there.
Huh?
Looks like he ran.
Jeez...
You really are a kid.
You have to finish what you start.
Episode 4
Heruma
We should have expected this...
The mud mixed with the salt water,
and it smells terrible.
Utao-chan, use this for the hard-to-reach spots.
Okay!
All right...
That presence...
That was a Seki.
But I've never felt anything like it in the village.
And that feeling...
Um... Utao-chan?
Hmm?
I-I-I'm sorry!
Ahh! Just put it down!
Oh no!
Sorry!
Aahh!
Sorry!
U-Um, I'm sorry...
Oh, it's fine.
We're taking one anyway...
Time to take a bath!
I'm back.
Both here, huh?
Utao, you in the bath?
Kyohei!
Utao-chan, did you say something?
You're back?
Yeah.
See you in a bit.
Hey, Kyohei...
Yes?
I think I encountered a Seki today...
Koushiro?
No.
Why did you bring up Koushiro?
He's after Aki.
Aki ran away again.
Aki did?
Utao?
What's wrong...
That Seki you saw...
If it wasn't Koushiro,
that means the Hyuga sent multiple Seki.
Or...
Or?
Someone from the Kuga?
Anyway, keep an eye on Hibino-san.
Aki saw her with us.
He threatened me.
Shouldn't you watch her yourself?
I'd love to, but...
But given what happened,
I'd rather not be around her
until this settles down.
Um... Didn't you see me, too?
Are you an idiot?
You're my relative, and you're a kid.
That's just creepy.
I'm sorry about everything today.
A lot of stuff was bothering me,
and I wanted to talk to Kyohei right away.
So...
It isn't really your fault, Utao-chan.
It feels like
an assault is only a matter of time, and it scares me.
An assault?
Utao-chan...
This is ridiculously cliché but,
this is salt.
Kuuko!
Heading home?
Kuga-kun?
Hibino-san!
Got a second?
Yes...
Thank you.
Sure, just leave it there.
Hey, are they really dating?
I never expected it would actually work out for him.
But why?
He's so boring.
I'm really sorry about yesterday...
Hey...
Yes?
I just ran into Kuuko.
Oh, Karahari-san?
She was saying some weird stuff...
That she'd found someone
connected to the scarecrow monster.
I'm back.
I wanted to interrogate you as soon as possible,
but the deadline for the apologies I had to write,
to keep from getting expelled, was today.
Now...
Let's get started.
Someone in this city, with some connection to the kakashi...
There are lots of people like me,
who came from the village and know about them.
But if she explicitly said "scarecrow monster"...
...I think it's a safe bet she meant a Seki.
I hope she hasn't gotten herself into any trouble.
That's why I wanted to go see.
We should be prepared.
I'll call Utao.
You're a real pervert.
You kidnapped me and then stripped me.
What?
I couldn't leave stuff that smelly in my room.
This place isn't that different from a dump.
Shut up!
Let's get to the point.
Those scarecrow monsters with you guys...
Tell me about them.
What are they?
Aliens?
Some nation's secret weapon?
Scarecrows?
Secret weapon?
You're going to play dumb?
Fine.
I'll make you tell me, no matter what.
You'll soon be crying,
begging me to listen to you.
That's an air gun—
Don't worry.
I modified it, to increase the power.
Come on! Come on! Come on!
You'd better talk before you get hurt!
What are you after?
I'm sick of this world!
I tried to get into the paranormal,
but that didn't work!
They're all boring fakes,
once you really start investigating.
But then I saw it!
What was it? I've never heard of anything like it.
For the first time in ages, I was excited.
And then I met you.
Now, tell me.
What are they?
Why does something like that exist?
Answer me! Now!
Jeez...
You're a chatty bitch, aren't you?
Seventh, seventh, seventh...
She's late.
Kyohei!
Hibino!
Here I am!
You idiot...
I told you to take the bus!
But I didn't know how to.
Just hide that, already!
Well?
I've shown you, just like you asked.
What do you think?
What is this?
Don't know.
But whatever else it may be, it's power.
And it's my power.
That's all I ever needed to know.
Want to give me some of that power?
It isn't like bread that can be cut in two.
Give it up.
I see.
Fine, then.
I'll figure out something.
What's wrong with you?
You had a map, right?
But...
Kuuko?
Hibino!
What's wrong?
That hurt, damn it.
Aki!
Aki...
Fancy running into you here, Kyohei.
Nice to meet you, miss.
I'm Aki, an old friend of his.
This guy's the murderer.
Oh, I get it.
Now I understand why you're so obsessed.
She looks a lot like
sensei.
You're still laughing?
Miss!
You see that?
This is his true nature.
He's just like me...
Shut up.
Shut up!
Stop pretending, already.
Bye.
Hey...
What's going on out here?
Hey... what is it?
Let's go, Utao!
You follow them, too!
Didn't someone just fall?
But, Kuuko!
Forget about me.
Hey, they fell, right?
Don't let him get away.
He's my lead!
Should I call someone? An ambulance? the police?
Man, I screwed up.
I should have upped the taser's voltage...
Hey, don't you need to call someone?
Shut up!
Don't touch me, you perverted NEET.
Damn it.
Let's split up...
You go that way!
Okay... This might work, after all.
Seems they know him.
If I have to, I can use Hibino.
I forgot my bra.
Whatever.
It's hard to imagine
that someone who ran away
would return to it.
Which means that this should be a good hideout.
Damn... I don't know if I'm lucky or in trouble.
Where is he?
Where did he go?
Where did he go?!
Aki!
She looks a lot like sensei.
Kyohei-kun?
Make sure to stay friends with Aki-kun forever.
Make sure to stay friends with...
I can't... I can't, Sensei.
Kuga-kun?
Where are you?
Damn it!
Damn it! Damn it!
Screw that bastard!
I'll never forgive him! Not ever!
He... He...
How dare he say that to me—
You'll break your hand.
He... I...
I understand.
I understand, okay?
Where did he go?
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
That was dangerous, Utao.
You have to be careful.
Hey, Utao.
The same face as mine...
I'm happy I could surprise you.
But I guess it means you didn't hear, after all.
They were hiding me.
All of them.
All of them?
All of the Kuga.
Who are you?
I'm you.
You're me.
We're each one half, sharing the same blood.
A pair, just like a kakashi and a Seki.
I'm your Seki.
What are you doing?
You want to fight, in the middle of a city?
Isn't that forbidden?
Letting people see it...
Right?
Shut up!
That was stupid, Utao.
You didn't know what your opponent has,
but you rushed in, anyway.
What are you doing?
Relax. Relax.
Take a breath.
Like this...
I see.
So much is happening,
your mind just went blank.
That's cute, Utao.
That means you're worth teasing.
That should do it...
I'm sorry to take your handkerchief.
It's scary.
Seeing someone get so angry, all of a sudden.
Can you explain...
I'm sorry!
I'm sorry...
I see.
Hey, where's Utao-chan?
Wasn't she with you?
Kukuri?
This sound...
Takemikazuchi?
Utao-chan!
No, it's not!
Who is that?
Kyohei!
Utao-chan?
Who are you?
That's not very nice of you to say,
Brother.
W... What?
Kamisama Dolls Corner! Wow!
Kamisama Dolls
Corner
Today we'll talk about the kakashi!
Here we go!
The sharp one is Kuramitsuha.
It's sharp.
I don't like it.
It's really strong and pointy. I don't like it.
It looks strong.
I don't like it.
The stick-like one is Uwazutsu.
A stick!?
It has a good sense of smell and teleports.
It's gone.
It reappeared.
That's all for today!
To Be Continued
Next time: To Home.
Next Episode: To Home...
