I've always wondered why women take so long to get ready.
It's more effort for women to get ready than you think.
That's what Hozuki-san and Bonbori-san told me.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
We've been waiting a long time.
Hey! It takes more effort...
...for women to get ready than you think.
Right?
What?
Jeez...
Ah, I'm sorry.
You look really lovely.
This is the first time we've been to a festival in such a big group!
Right! I'm looking forward to it!
So everyone's here.
Amaryouju-sama!
We've got something to do, so we can't go.
Here, go have fun.
Getting an allowance at our age...
We're going!
They look like they're having fun.
Yes.
When they first came here, they had a very frightened look in their eyes.
It's because you created this place, Amaryouju-sama.
I was desperately trying to suppress their powers
to allow them to live without being noticed by the Kamigakari village.
You gave me an answer.
I really don't know how I should thank you.
No, I really enjoy the days I've spent living with you too.
Those girls should be smiling,
for that reason too.
Yes.

Ah! There are so many shops!
Come to think of it, there's a maze in front of this place!
Ah, I'd like to go there!
Right, Ganryuu-sama?
Ah, I want to eat that!
Hey! We'll go to the shops after we've been to the shrine.
Alright.
Want to eat one, boy?
Ah, it's all fluffy!
Oh, thank you very much!
It's sweet!
Dad! I want to do that!
These people here...
Thanks to Aun-sama, the people around here are kind to youjin.
Aun-sama?
They're wonderful people!
They're big and gentle!
Are you complimenting us?
Eh? Guardian lion-dogs?
You can speak louder when you compliment us!
Aun-sama!
It's been a long time!
You lot are annoying as usual!
Hmm?
You! Don't touch me with sticky hands!
Cotton candy! I was given cotton candy!
Hmm, who's this?
Are you Zakuro's boyfriend?
N-No! This guy definitely isn't!
Oh? Is that so?
If you make Zakuro cry we'll eat you, head first!
Like I said, you got it all wrong!
ENTRANCE
E N O R M O U S M A Z E
Hurry up!
Don't rush, it's dangerous!
If I make Zakuro cry, huh?
Come on, let's race to see who gets there first!
The winner gets some grilled squid!
Come on, Ganryuu-sama!
Let's go!
Hey, wait!
Hurry up!
Ganryuu-sama!
Hey.
Shall we go together?
It wouldn't be a competition then.
Zakuro-kun!
You shouldn't cheat, Agemaki.
Alright.
Jeez!
It was because Aun-sama was saying weird things!
I might have gotten lost.
Are you angry about something?
Why?
No... If I made you angry, I'll say sorry.
Why are you apologising?!
You haven't done anything wrong.
Sorry.
You idiot.
There's a festival today, and I've been looking forward to it for a long time.
I'm not angry or anything like that.
This is a wonderful place.
All the humans have kind faces.
That's right. Everyone loves Aun-sama, so they're kind to us too.
I thought you hated humans.
It's not that I hate them...
Let's go.
I'm sure everyone is already way ahead of us.
Okay.
Hey, say something.
It's gotten hot, you can let go...
I was afraid of you at first.
I already know that.
Things are different now.
I know that too.
Then,
do you know this?
I'm sure that I...
Umm...
Ah, Zakuro-kun!
I'm sure that I...
Those eyes...
That voice...
That was the first time...
I...
Agemaki, you're so slow!
So slow!
Oh?
Where's Zakuro?
She might hate me.
It looks like something happened.
Let's leave him alone.
I also want to find a wife and settle down soon.
You've got to find someone first.
Rangui?
Byakuroku was no good, so in the end I had to go myself.
Half-demons really are useless.
So?
As you ordered, I took her to the festive room.
I see.
Then take Byakuroku.
Because you need some help.
But!
That half-demon girl...
Only reply "yes" to what I say.
Yes.
Sister!
Rangui-sama is calling for you.
Lucky you, she's calling for you personally!
Hey, sister. I'll go with you...
You can't.
The only one she called for was Byakuroku.
Know your place, Daidai.
It's not as good as that.
You're lying.
Hey... I love you more than flowers or candy, mother!
I wonder how long you'll say I'm your number one.
Eh? I always will!
Mother, you always will...
Mother...
Mother?
Mother...
No, mother!
Mother...
What is this?
How are you feeling?
You're the one from the other day.
I'd like you to forgive us for treating you a little roughly.
Who are you?
Where is this?
What on earth are you doing?
Don't ask so many questions at once.
Even though the time has finally come for our love to continue...
I've always wanted to be alone with you.
You don't dislike me either, do you?
First Lieutenant Hanadate?
First Lieutenant Hanadate.
That is an alias.
My real name is Omodaka.
Omodaka?
The sinister blood that runs through my body, the blood that carries the same darkness...
It desires you, Zakuro.
Bringing two impure things together as one.
We can finally become one.
No!
Wait!
Byakuroku.
Yes!
Keep looking after Zakuro and report to me about her.
Alright!
Umm...
I'm very sorry!
I saw your true face, Omodaka-sama!
It doesn't look the same, does it?
It doesn't look the same at all...
To the extent that it's cruel...
Zakuro still isn't back yet?
Maybe she stopped by somewhere on the way home?
I'll go and look for her!
Agemaki-san!
Zakuro...
Zakuro isn't here...
We know that!
So...
She's not here...
Mamezo!
He's asleep.
This is what happens to tsukumogami when they're far away from the person they made a contract with!
This is more than one or two days distance away.
But not that much time has passed.
Well, well.
What are you doing here?
Amaryouju-sama.
Kushimatsu.
Where's Zakuro?
Why would First Lieutenant Hanadate...
No, he said his name was Omodaka...
At that time... I didn't like it...
I'm sure that I...
You're Hanadate's...
That person's ally.
Ally?
Of course not.
We're just objects.
Wait!
I've got to get back to the Ministry of Youjin!
I'm sure everyone's worried!
If Mamezo gets too far away from me...
You're confident that everyone loves you.
It's not like that.
It's because we've always been together,
since we were children.
I also...
I also have Daidai!
Are you okay?
I'm not like you.
Just using magic once affects my body.
So...
I think you'll feel a little better once you get some of your power back.
I'll share mine with you.
You're...
Well?
I'm an object.
I don't really understand, but stop talking like that.
What's your name?
Byakuroku.
It's almost time.
Here, Omodaka-sama and that girl will...
Although I understand, it still hurts me.
Don't be so casual about touching me!
You're nothing more than a filthy demon, don't be so arrogant!
Hey, you half-demon!
You aren't allowed to come here!
I just...
I called her here.
Omodaka-sama!
Ah... Umm... The report...
Hey...
You can't!
You'll be defiled if you touch me!
I can sense Zakuro's power.
Just as I thought, it's amazing.
Even though it's been sealed, she still has this much power...
Zakuro, there's no doubt about it.
You are a rare woman
and the one who should bear my child.
Zakuro...
The village of Kamigakari?
Yes, that's probably where Zakuro is.
Where is it?
Let's hurry up and save Zakuro!
You can't go to the village of Kamigakari.
Why not?
That place is outside of reality.
What do you mean, Kushimatsu?
Kamigakari village is the birthplace of half-demons.
It's no good.
The Black Widow?
How I felt...
How... How serious I was...
You are a butterfly!
A butterfly that flutters around Omodaka-sama!
A butterfly with poisonous wings that drinks his nectar!
I'll eat you!
Eat you!
I will eat you!
I'll tear off your wings and stab you in the gut!
I'll devour you whole!
You...!
What's all that noise?
The Black Widow!
Hey, that girl isn't here!
Report this to Omodaka-sama!
Zakuro!
Hurry up!
You stupid half-demon!
Stop that!
You're...
She's the...
Hurry, get Byakuroku!
Are you okay?
You understand now, right?
We half-demons are just objects.
Incomplete beings that cannot become humans or youjin.
But female half-demons are lucky.
If they are born male, they don't even look human.
How can that be?
We were born to revive half-demons with tremendous power.
Zakuro.
No...
Zakuro!
