This is hopeless.
The Amakawa Family's Light Ferry is a magical enchantment.
It boosts the power of its target.
It requires concentration, imaginative power, and unwavering composure, does it not?
Yes.
The problem is...
...he still is only able to use his power to protect someone.
Not only that, but they must be in dire danger.
Our enemies aren't going to sit around waiting for us.
What are we going to do?
We should just keep him in danger all the time.
Oh, I know.
What about the village of Noihara?
Isn't it the home of the Amakawa Family?
It's where Yuto grew up.
Maybe we'll find something useful there.
You're right.
As far as I can tell, they've decided to fight you with everything they've got.
Well, I don't suppose there is anything else for them to do.
You haven't forgotten what we discussed the other day, have you?
I know.
We won't harm humans.
We'll worry about the rest once Tama is done eating.
Tama, are you feeling hungry yet?
You're right. Let's hope they've grown a little more delicious.
Very well.
We're just getting started.
This powerful magic...!
It seems they're a step ahead of us.
They're coming.
Guardian Cat
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.
Guardian Cat
Cat (pronounced as "Himari"), as a Bodyguard...
What is this?
It's like a ghost town.
The enemy has put up a barrier.
We've been cut off from the physical human world.
But for what purpose? I can't imagine they'd go as far as to look out for humans.
This is awfully suspicious.
Either way, we couldn't have asked for more.
Yes. With humans out of the picture, we can fight to our hearts' content.
Excuse me, but you've got a regular ordinary person right here.
You're a human, Rinko?
What's that supposed to mean?
If you're scared, you can go home.
I can't do that. Yuto has decided to fight.
If the only human representative here doesn't witness it, who will?
I want to go home!
They're here!
There she is!
Rinko and Liz, take cover in a nearby building.
Kaya, look after them.
If I must.
Ageha and Sasa, watch our backs.
If you'll watch my back, Yu, that will be all we'll need.
This will be our first time working together.
The first blow will be mine!
Himari!
I owe them one from our last encounter!
Himari!
It's because you rush into things like that. What are we going to do with you, cat?
Now's our chance!
Nice one.
How can she be so powerful?
Sasa!
Okay!
Um, why don't we try to calm down?
Oh, dear.
Thanks the barrier, no direct harm will come to humans...
...but how much is this going to cost us?
Quit running around, you little brat!
What are you doing?
There's my chance!
This is going to be expensive.
Though I suppose it's a small price to pay...
...to exterminate the Ayakashi we've been after for hundreds of years.
I have an agreement with the fox and the demon.
I'll finally be free of this troublesome job.
What a fool.
A promise? An agreement?
Never with a pathetic human.
You were the ones who started this, humans.
The humiliation! The pain! The hatred!
Don't think we have forgotten.
Once the nine tailed fox regains her power, I will be revived, and you...
You're not ready yet.
What?
You...
You are not delicious.
Oh? What a surprise this is.
It seems they did not measure up to Tama's expectations.
Sasa!
Himari!
Damn it!
No! Stay back, master!
Master!
Damn you!
Yu!
Master!
Stop! Let go of him!
Stop! Stop it!
Damn you!
Kill!
No, Himari!
Master!
Yu!
What?
Now's our chance, Yuto Amakawa!
We're retreating! Let's go!
I hate to admit it, but we have no choice.
Let's go, Himari.
Hey, they're getting away!
Why aren't you chasing after them?
Interesting. I see.
I knew that cat's power was exceptional.
It seems you've found a delicious recipe.
They must be planning to recuperate here.
How fortunate they've hidden themselves away in the mountains.
You'll be fine this time, won't you?
This is the perfect place for our final confrontation.
We won't even need a barrier to enjoy our meal this time.
There's quite a commotion going on in the city.
There are even people screaming their heads off about the end of mankind.
The end of mankind will come whether you like it or not.
Oh, nothing.
What is all of this?
As you can see, they're the archives that were hidden away in the storehouse.
Kaya...
You worthless demon slayer.
It's your fault for being so helpless.
As much as it pains me to say it, it's become abundantly clear we're powerless against them.
We must do whatever we can to find a way for you to use the Light Ferry.
This is pointless. I've already examined all the literature here.
Quiet. We'll do a thorough reexamination.
There must be something in here about the Amakawa's power.
Yu and I are working together now.
If Yu would master his ability, they wouldn't stand a chance.
If that's what you think, why don't you help?
I don't know if I should be handling these dusty things.
You big-mouthed bitch!
In any case, hurry. The enemy could attack at any time.
Then you should help, too!
Full control over the Light Ferry would be a powerful weapon in this battle...
...but that would mean putting the young master in danger again.
Will this beautiful village of Noihara be destroyed by conflict?
This land of memories with my master...
Himari.
Is this where you've been hiding?
Get down from there and help us out.
What's wrong with you? You've been out of it since we got here.
You seem full of energy.
Huh? What do you expect me to do?
Do you also wish for the master to fight?
What?
I know it's what Kuesu wants.
Her wish is to fight with him as demon slayers.
But what about you?
When the fighting starts again, the master won't come out unscathed.
Of course I don't want to see Yuto come to harm...
...but we have no other choice.
Yuto still wants to lead a normal life.
Once this battle is over, he can go back to that.
No matter how frightened or opposed I am, all I can do is support Yuto.
Right?
Rinko...
I see. You're right.
Regardless, the young master isn't suited to combat.
If something happens to me, please look after the young master.
What are you trying to say?
Yes.
Hello, miss. How are you doing?
Kaburagi? What is it?
I thought I said I would call you when we had something to discuss.
Don't be like that.
I thought I would warn you of something for your sake.
Warn me?
Yes. I'm actually right outside Noihara.
Noihara?
Yes. This is your last chance to come back to this side.
I knew you were pulling strings behind the scenes.
That's absurd.
I simply spoke to them and chose the most peaceful option.
"Peaceful?" Do you really believe that's what you'll get working with that dangerous pair?
If only you'd speak to them, you'd see they're not so bad.
They're much easier to work with than stubborn humans.
What is that supposed to mean?
Allow me to apologize if I've offended you.
Either way, it doesn't matter.
If they're willing to eliminate those who get in my way...
...it doesn't matter to me whether they're demon slayers or Ayakashi.
You can't seriously think that.
You'll find out very soon.
In any case, if you care for your safety, get out of there immediately.
My pleasant associates are already on the move.
What was that?
Good bye.
Wait!
The days I spent with the young master when he was a child.
And...
The young master said he would fight alongside me.
He needs me.
He told me to stay by his side.
I couldn't ask for more.
My mind was on the verge of falling into that black chasm again.
Just like that other time.
If I had fallen into that black hole again, I...
When did you get here?
What will you do?
Will you run off to find your friends with your tail between your legs...
...or settle things here and now?
Which will it be, kitten?
I am the young master's bodyguard.
I'd do anything to protect him!
How many more times do you intend to do that? Don't you know that won't work against us?
You can't stop me!
My body!
What are you doing? You know what you need to do!
Damn it!
You know what you must do!
Don't you want to protect those important to you?
The one you love.
Don't you want to protect Yuto Amakawa?
Master...
Himari...
Master...
I want you to stay the way you are, Himari.
Those words have saved me many times.
That smile has kept me here many times.
That's why I...
I want to protect you no matter what.
It seems she finally realized...
...what she must do.
Master...
You...
Your feelings...
I will protect you...
...no matter the cost.
That will do.
You are a bloodthirsty Ayakashi.
A demon who delights in slaughter.
Give yourself over to your instincts!
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.
I'll watch your back!
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.
This is the last time we'll hold this corner.
Many thanks to all our viewers.
Since this is the last one...
Let's give them a good one!
The Cat, Yuto, and the Maiden's Pure Heart
