Hey, Miku.
Show me your English homework.
Eh? There's homework?
You should have told me.
I had a cold so I was absent yesterday.
That's right! Oh no!
What should I do?
I was depending on you, Miku.
Hey, Tsuchimiya!
Did you finish the English homework?
Eh?
Well, yeah.
Really?
Can I borrow it?
Sure, you can.
Yay!
Thank you!
Tsuchimiya-san, me too?
Ah, sure.
What is it? Mail?
Yes, from the hospital.
Your mother was hospitalized?
I'm sorry to bother you when you already have your hands full.
Eh? No.
Ah, I need to go.
You can just leave the notebook here.
Bye!
What a busy girl.
It must be hard for her.
Sorry to interrupt you during your class, Kagura.
You're making me feel awkward about having to lie to the teacher every time.
You were sleeping, weren't you?
Eh?
You still have drool on your face.
That's another addition to my "Kagura's Weird Face" collection!
Delete such a collection!
Don't you think the number of Supernatural Disasters has been on the rise lately?
Yeah, there have been a lot of demon appearances.
It's been quite calm for some time though.
It's been three years since we last saw an increase like this.
Three years...
The last pocky is mine!
That's cheating!
First come, first served!
Hey, hey!
No!
What's wrong? What's wrong?
Stop it, it tickles!
No, you like it, don't you?
Yomi, you pervert!
Don't look this way, you pervert!
Sorry about today.
Even though both of you said you were in class...
Don't worry about it.
This is our mission, after all.
You're both okay with an old man looking at you?
Well, that's because Iwahata-san prefers the other side.
That side.
So, it's okay because he likes the other side?
Hey, Sakuraba!
You... have a nice ass.
D-D-Don't look at me that way!
Sorry to keep you waiting.
Where is the enemy?
I'm tracking it with the Kudagitsune right now.
It's a Category B – Tsuchigumo.
It's an unusually large one today.
I'll finish it quickly with Nue.
Noriyuki, call your Kudagitsune back.
Everyone, cover my back please.
I'm logistical support again?
It's still too early for you to be the main character.
You'll get your chance after you're able to master Michael the 12th.
I already have!
Really?
Then show me.
Ranguren!
Let's go!
We're going to cover Yomi.
Roger that.
Ranguren, Houkouha!
Ranguren, smash it!
Kagura.
A civilian?
Yes.
Are you all right?
Are you hurt?
You saw it just now, didn't you?
Then that makes things easier for us.
We are the Agency for Supernatural Disaster Prevention under the Ministry of the Environment.
Simply put, we're specialists in demon exorcisms.
Demon?
Humans who have strong supernatural sensing abilities are easily targeted by demons.
Also, there is a worst case scenario where someone can't overcome lingering attachments and becomes a demon himself.
You'd better not come near these kinds of places.
Just to make sure you won't leak what you've seen today to the public,
come with us.
We'll have a written contract ready for you.
You have to have some respect for your own life.
I'll take care of this for you.
Okay?
I'm sorry.
They say there are no more demons in the area.
Okay, exorcism complete.
We're going to withdraw.
How did you know about that woman?
Based on experience.
You'll understand when you're more experienced.
Tsuchimiya!
A reward for yesterday.
We made a bento for you.
Let's eat together!
Okay!
It's delicious.
Tsuchimiya,
is your mother seriously ill?
Yacchu!
It's okay, it's okay.
Don't worry about it.
But you sure are incredible. You even finished your homework.
It's normal, I'm just a bit busy, that's all.
What about your father?
He's busy and rarely gets back.
Right now, I'm living with a relative.
Eh?! That's so unfortunate!
That's not true.
I play with my relative's daughter and help her with her work.
It's fun.
Work?
Ah! That's... my relative's work.
Wow! You're working!
I'm still an apprentice and not really helpful though.
No, just hearing that you're working is amazing.
Really?
Of course!
No!
You mustn't!
When you're maintaining your sword,
please use clove oil or camellia oil.
That's the heart of a Japanese.
No!
What's wrong, Kagura?
Yomi, a weird person came into the house!
Ah, Master Michael.
You've arrived.
Yo, Yomi-san!
It's been awhile.
Someone you know?
Hey, greet him.
You're being rude.
I'm Tsuchimiya Kagura.
Oh, you must be Tsuchimiya-dono's daughter.
Nice to meet you, I am Michael Kohara.
Michael Kohara...
Yes, he is the famous swordsmith who forged that sword.
Yes.
He made Michael the 12th?
Yes.
He crafted the agency's other equipment as well, you know.
Yes.
Why is he naked?
Yes!
Why then?
Let me take a look at it.
Yes, it's radiating perfectly.
It's like brand new.
That's because I wasn't given the chance to use it.
Like I said, it's still too early for you.
Yomi-san, can you show me Shishiou?
It's a good sword as always.
The flow of spiritual power really charms me.
But...
But?
Its spiritual power is a little bit worn out.
It seems like a good time to resharpen it.
If Shishiou is out being sharpened, then you'll have to fight without a sacred beast for a while, right?
Maintenance is more important.
So it can't be helped.
If only I could summon a sacred beast as well...
That'd be helpful in this kind of situation, right?
Come here, Kagura,
I'll clean your back for you.
Did you meet your father?
No, not at all.
You need to at least go back and show your face sometimes or he'll feel lonely, you know.
We'll be okay.
He won't be around even if I go back.
Maybe I should go back.
Perhaps I'm getting in your way?
W-Wait, Yomi!
Kagura, you're so cute!
It tickles!
Become a member of the family!
Oh? Master Michael came?
Yes, and it seems that he'll be taking care of Shishiou for a while.
Also, he'd like to do maintenance on some of the Agency's exorcism weapons that need attention.
I see.
Then group them together, please.
Group them?
Then, when we need it, the equipment...
It's time we made her part of the main force.
Then...
There's no better way to practice than a real fight.
More importantly, it's not good to always depend on Ran-chan, don't you think?
Ran-chan...
This is a good opportunity.
Adjust the shifts.
Understood.
I will arrange it.
By the way...
What is it, Kiri-chan?
Why is that man always naked?
Who knows.
You idiot!
Oh my!
That old man is insane, as usual.
But he did well not to be caught wearing only that.
He does get caught... sometimes.
So you're going to be absent from work for awhile, aren't you, Yomi?
I can still fight even without Shishiou.
Iwahata-san, show me the exorcism equipment.
Most of them were sent for maintenance,
all that's left are these.
These are good for girls, don't you think?
It's an iron?
This is the Exorcist's Knuckle, Douglas No. 28.
Hit the demon with the blessed water stream and your fist.
No good?
Other valuable weapons are:
The Exorcist's Chainsaw, Pare No. 11.
The Exorcist's Jackhammer, Jackson No. 33.
The Exorcist's Boiler, J. Fox no. 55. Those are some of them.
Which one do you prefer?
None of them are very good.
Rather, this is heavy and it's impossible to carry.
I'll go with this.
Noriyuki, let's practice.
Sorry, but I'm booked for today.
Again?
Because the number of defeats keeps going up.
You two should practice together.
Yomi, let's practice with this!
Sure, let's go!
Are you okay with this, Noriyuki?
With what?
You need to spend time with Isayama sometimes. You're her fiancé, aren't you?
You mean I need to please the person my parents pick?
It's not like you're not interested in her, right?
Who knows.
She's too busy taking care of that girl to think about me right now.
It's better for me not to get in her way.
That's certainly true.
Triple twenty... go!
The way she takes care of that girl, it's like a mother.
It's going to be hard for you from now on, with your fiancée and that girl.
Geez! The one and five sections again?
That's why I'm messing around like this while I can.
That's good, but don't use me as an excuse too much.
Why?
Isayama will hate me.
She's scary when she hates someone.
That's true.
Somehow I was able to hit it.
Does that thing really have power?
The weapons that Master Michael makes are excellent.
It can amplify the power of its holder several times.
Just like your Michael the 12th.
But there are plenty of weird ones too.
That's because the man is an artist.
It's from the Agency.
It says the distribution of spiritual power is abnormal.
It's near here.
Let's go investigate it.
Where is this place?
This is the old Shinbashi station for the Ginza line.
Right now, it looks like it's being used as a warehouse for night trains and restrooms.
Don't touch the electrified rail.
You'll be electrocuted and die.
There really have been a lot of demons lately.
As the bad ki accumulates,
the demons that are called to it will gather,
making the bad ki even stronger.
As that vicious cycle continues,
it will create a haunted area.
But...
But?
The initial bad ki has some reason...
This thing is quite handy.
Category C – Tenjyouname.
They love the scum on the concrete.
Take this, then.
Out of blessed water?
Yomi!
This thing doesn't suit me at all.
Thank goodness.
That's...
That woman, why is she here?
Wait, Kagura!
Category D, a corrupted human spirit.
Then she's already...
Yomi!
Cut them down!
But...
They're no longer human!
But they were human, weren't they?!
Once a spirit becomes a specter, we can only purify them!
But still...
They're already dead!
Cut them down, Kagura!
It's our job to exterminate those who spread the taint of death to the human world!
I know that!
But!
What?
That's...
Tsuchimiya-dono...
Father...
Release Ga Rei!
Byakuei!
Byakuei, eat them!
The strongest sacred beast, passed down in the Tsuchimiya family...
Ga Rei Byakuei.
Kagura.
Hold out your hands.
Yes.
You know the mission of those who were born into the family of exorcists, don't you?
Yes.
You know the weight of that responsibility, don't you?
Yes.
Then devote yourself to it.
Yes.
Tsuchimiya-dono.
Become stronger.
