There you are.
Where did you get that steamed bun?
Was it an offering? You'll get in trouble for that.
Don't worry about it? I suppose you're right.
There isn't anyone left, anyway.
You like sweets because they're sugary and delicious?
That's good.
You're still hungry?
But you had so much to eat.
In the city of Takamiya not far from here, there are many Ayakashi.
Not only that, but the descendant of a demon slayer clan is said to be living there, too.
I was actually planning on going there next. Naturally, you'll come too, won't you, Tama?
Let's go.
I can't hold my breath, it's not good to quarrel.
Bounce Bounce Bounce, It's a quarrel, right?
My heart lightly scatters all around.
That way, this way, which way?
You forgot, didn't you?
That important thing.
Stretch Stretch Stretch Bounce Bounce Stretch
Crawling around and deceiving is something I can't do.
I can't be dishonest.
I'm sorry for lying. Don't get mad, alright?
Act like you always do.
Show me what a cool guy you are.
Only...
Let's raise our love together.
Enduring round after round,
tomorrow, you'll wake up to a vigorous chime.
Oh~ but I'll return
With a sparkling visit
See! You smiled!
The truth is, I like you.
I have always loved you.
The Meow in the Approaching Darkness
We'll be sketching today.
You're free to choose your own subjects.
So long as it feels like art, what you draw is none of my concern.
That's all. Now, go.
What should I draw?
Noihara, will you model for me?
Model?
I've got to pick a subject that inspires creativity.
I'm sure I could draw a great picture of you.
I can already imagine what you'd draw.
I refuse. The only one who can look upon my body is the young master.
What? Yuto, since when have you been in such an enviable position?
We haven't done anything!
What are you so embarrassed for, master?
How can you keep that voluptuous 88-56-85 body to yourself night after night?
How unbelievably fortuitous!
Listen...
Forget that fool. Let's go, master.
Th-think whatever you want!
Hey, wait!
Looks like they've run away from you.
Oh, well. I guess you'll do.
I'll do?
How is this, master?
Photographs and drawings aren't the same thing.
I can understand drinking sake while enjoying the flowers.
I've never been able to understand art.
I never thought I'd see the cat princess use a camera phone.
Either way, the phone's memory is completely taken up by photos.
She probably only uses the camera.
I am always by your side, master. There is no need for me to call you.
So you take tons of pictures instead. Having fun?
I suppose.
When you can leave a record like this, you can always recall what you might otherwise have lost.
Well, master? How would you like me to pose?
What are you talking about?
Modeling for your drawing, of course.
What do you think? How does this look?
W-wait, Himari! What are you doing? I don't...
Yeah! Cut that out, you dirty cat!
You're saying this isn't enough?
How's this, then?
It's for your art, master. I can take off more, if you'd like.
After all, the nude is the fundamental drawing of a woman.
Oh, man!
I won't lose to a cat!
You don't need to compete with her.
Listen to the young master. You couldn't help even if you wanted to, Rinko.
What did you say?
This is hopeless. What am I going to draw?
This could work.
Well? Come on, say something.
M-master?
Yuto?
This is boring.
Boring, boring, boring!
Shut up and draw.
Isn't there an explosively artistic subject that will stimulate my libido?
A body came up to the surface!
Don't treat me like something from a horror film.
W-who is that?
Shizuku, what are you doing?
Where are the cat and Yuto?
They were here until just a minute ago.
How unfortunate. There's something I need to tell them.
It's terrible. The village has been burnt to the ground.
Any survivors?
None. They're all dead.
Who on earth did that?
Who knows. I can't imagine a human doing this.
Something very strange is going on here.
Shouldn't we bring Yuto Amakawa into this as soon as possible?
I know.
Please take it into consideration.
Kaburagi, please leave that to me.
Understood?
Ultimately, I'm the one who has to take responsibility.
In any case, I suppose I'll head back.
Why can't Kaburagi understand I understand Yu the most?
Maybe I'll probe deeper into Amakawa territory.
He's nowhere to be seen.
Could he have been assaulted by another Ayakashi?
Master, where are you?
Answer me!
Where did Yuto go?
W-who are you?
Sasa the ippon-datara?
Let's play.
What are you doing here?
Let's play horsey.
You're too heavy!
Ouch.
How have you been?
Who are you?
Ageha? What are you...?
I'm glad you remembered me.
How could I forget? What are you doing here?
What do you think?
How would I...
How far have you gone with Himari?
What?
Don't give me that.
You're her master. You can get her to do whatever abnormal sex play you want.
Don't say that!
I'd never ask her for anything like that. We haven't done anything.
You haven't done anything? Really?
Well, we kissed...
What are you, a middle school student?
What kind of standards are you using?
You're just too much of a kid.
Fine.
Aren't they soft?
H-hey!
W-what are you...
Well?
What do you think you're doing?
Oh, shut up. This is as far as you've gone with that cat, right?
From here on out, I'll do even more amazing things to you.
Amazing things?
I'm an air demon. I'm only here to suck your blood.
Let's make you feel good.
Yes, yes, yes, yes!
My creativity!
She's so amazingly wet!
Keep it down, boys!
No one will want to marry me after this.
She's opened my eyes!
Men are too easy.
I'll marry you!
Shizuku, what are you doing here?
Cat...
Weren't you supposed to be watching him?
I won't make any excuses. The only thing we can do is find the young master as soon as possible.
It's just one thing after another with you.
What?
Rinko!
And the ippon-datara.
What a ragged horsey.
You bitch! Was it you? What have you done with the young master?
Don't worry. Ageha won't kill him.
Ageha, you say?
A demon slayer's blood...
One sip will send me over the edge.
I don't often commit myself to just one man.
You should consider yourself lucky.
It's delicious.
What is this? My body's tingling.
Just let me suck a little more...
I was just getting to the good part.
You'll pay for what you did to the young master, bitch!
Nothing is more tactless than interrupting a man and a woman's fun.
Get a hold of yourself.
Shizuku...
Sucking the young master's blood will cost you everything you have.
Indeed.
I give up.
What?
What are you trying to pull?
I'm not dumb enough to fight both of you.
I don't have time for that now, anyway.
What do you mean?
My head's full of thoughts of saving myself. I don't want to die yet.
Are you referring to the slain Ayakashi of the West?
So you do know?
What are you talking about?
The Ayakashi of the West are being exterminated one by one by someone.
Exterminated?
An entire village was destroyed.
Who would do something like that?
Wouldn't you like to know more?
I was hoping to get the chance to speak with you, demon slayer Yuto Amakawa.
Reserved
Yuto brought me all these customers.
I know, I'll serve them my specialty blend.
Hyogo Kaburagi
Public Security Section Four's Kaburagi?
We're an organization formed to combat the supernatural. In other words, Ayakashi.
Our existence isn't common knowledge.
"Combat?"
Why don't you just say you kill them?
Kill...
He's an Ayakashi exterminator.
They've been manipulating mobs of witch hunters and exorcists for years.
Now, now. There's no need for hostility.
I wouldn't have shown up unarmed and alone if I had any intention of fighting you.
I'm nothing more than an official working for them.
I suppose, but...
Thank you for waiting.
I'm surprised to see so many Ayakashi here.
Are you counting me, too?
You truly are the demon slayer of Amakawa.
I'm not really...
Demon slayers and the Amakawa have nothing to do with this.
It is all the young master's personal grace.
About what you said earlier...
You must be referring to the slaughter of Ayakashi.
Is it true?
We've already confirmed dozens of cases.
In every one of those cases, someone had...
...eaten them.
Eaten them?
Yes. I've confirmed it with my own eyes. I'm absolutely certain.
It might be my job, but it wasn't something I wanted to see.
Who could do something that horrible?
At the very least, we know it couldn't have been a human.
We think these cases may have been the work of an Ayakashi.
You can't be serious.
An Ayakashi eating Ayakashi? Wouldn't that be cannibalism?
I knew it. I've heard rumors along those lines.
It is a famous story among our kind.
Ever since these incidents began, rumors of a cannibalistic Ayakashi have been spreading.
Is that why you're after the young master's blood?
Exactly. I thought I'd power up with a demon slayer's blood before I got attacked by some weirdo.
Got a problem with that?
Of course I do!
I think you've got the right idea.
Demon slayers exist to handle these situations.
I'm here today for similar reasons.
Section Four would like to request your assistance.
W-why me?
Don't you understand? This Ayakashi is extremely dangerous.
It may eventually become a threat to humans.
I see.
You want the young master to handle a demon out of your league?
We're running out of time, Yuto Amakawa.
Your demon slayer powers are needed now more than ever.
Hold on a minute. I don't know what I can do about such a sudden request.
What could possibly make you hesitate?
I'm still not... well...
I still don't understand exactly what it means to be a demon slayer. Killing a demon is out of the question.
I don't believe this is the time for that.
A cannibalistic Ayakashi...
If our theory is correct, your friends here could be attacked at any moment.
Are you saying you'll stand by and watch as that happens?
Th-that's...
Don't let him talk you into anything. You should make your own decision, master.
That kind of laid-back attitude won't save you!
Shut up. I won't let you use fear to suck the young master into your plans.
I've heard of cannibalistic Ayakashi.
W-who are you?
Amakawa, is she one of your friends?
N-no.
Um, can I get you anything?
Run, master!
The sandwiches!
Forget about those!
What's going on?
Hurry, this way!
There's no need to hurry home. How about a cup of tea?
When did you get here?
You're the current demon slayer? You seem like a lively young lad.
What do you want with the young master?
How immodest for a beautiful young lady.
Himari!
You want to fight? Sasa!
He absorbed it?
Ageha...
You bastard.
What?
Himari!
Stay back, master. I'm fine.
Which one shall we start with, Tama?
I won't let you lay a finger on the young master!
No, cat!
They're after us, the Ayakashi!
Himari!
What?
Is she the Ayakashi in question?
What would you do if that were the case?
Get away from Himari!
It seems I'm a little late.
Kuesu...
Well, the belle of the ball should always show up last.
Miss!
What are you doing behind my back, Kaburagi?
Well, I...
It's fine. Forget it.
It seems we have some important guests.
You must be Tamamo-no-Mae, the nine tailed fox...
...and Shuten Douji.
Shuten Douji?
And Tamamo-no-Mae.
They're two of Japan's three greatest Ayakashi. No wonder they're such formidable opponents.
She's a nine tailed fox?
You are not delicious.
What?
Let us continue the party.
Dance with me, Yu.
Unfortunately, now doesn't seem to be the time for that.
Yes, you're right.
We'll have to say goodbye for now.
You've narrowly escaped death.
What is the meaning of this?
It seems Tama doesn't wish to eat today.
She's one to save the strawberry on the cake for last.
So you're running?
That's not a nice thing to say.
Tama's magic has awakened us, but we are still nothing more than scraps.
We simply seek the purest and most powerful forms of magic.
We look forward to seeing you all again. Farewell.
Hold it right there!
Take care.
They've disappeared completely.
Himari!
I can't believe you're acting like that at a time like this.
Himari, are you alright? Himari!
It's not fatal. Shizuku should be able to patch me up.
But...
You're keeping your magic inside yourself.
If I ate you now, you wouldn't taste good.
In time, you'll grow to be more delicious.
Beam my beam! Let my light...
Beam my beam! ...shine with your light.
Let's go repaint history.
Your best possible match will support you!
By joining together,
we can surely pass over that fence.
Good morning!
What kind of dream did you have last night?
Let's join all the happiness and sadness together...
...and lose ourselves in these feelings.
If you're drawn to me again this morning,
It'll remind me of my reason for living.
Beam my beam! Your power...
Beam my beam! ...is my strength.
It's an infinite, neverending puzzle.
If you embrace me day by day,
our love will go on forever.
You find me dazzling, right?
Let's make some more memories together.
Unforgivable.
What is?
That new character is stealing my role.
She doesn't say much, either.
I'll kill her in the next episode.
Is that what happens?
