Lila?!
I found you.
So, you were the hostage.
Tsubaki?!
You must have been frightened.
I'm sorry it took so long to find you.
Now, hand that to me.
What's going on?!
Why is Tsubaki here?!
You even defeated Higan.
Big Brother Greed and his Eve really caused a rampage.
Hey, Big Brother Sloth.
I finally found it...
Teacher...
Licht, wait.
Ah?
He's serious trouble.
It's impossible.
Licht is at his limit.
My body feels heavy, too.
We can't fight.
Brother.
I know.
So, this man is...
...Tsubaki.
Episode 12: "Thinking Simply"
Does he know what happened to Hugh?
Tetsu.
Sendagaya, wait!
Where is Hugh?!
Ah.
Belkia's special skill.
It's a magic skill that teleports someone trapped in the box to its pair.
I had him send me the Servamp of Pride that way.
Isn't disappearing magic the basics of a magic show?
You didn't...
Hugh!
Tsubaki...
...what are you trying to do?
I want to respond to Teacher's expectations.
Teacher wants me to clean up after him.
This messy world he left behind.
Blood?
No... flowers?
I'm an instrument.
I'm a method.
I'm the only way to "kill" a Servamp.
Things like bonds...
...and things like trust...
...have no meaning to me, Melancholy.
Stop!
You bastard!
Move, Big Brother Sloth!
I can't kill my Big Brother!
I have to cut his head off.
It has to drop like a fading Camellia flower.
You are a really... troublesome hidden child.
You'll accept it?
That I'm your Little Brother?
I have to.
He's the only one who can make a monster like this.
That's right.
He was the only one.
My teacher, who you murdered.
I searched for you, Black Lion.
You're the one who killed Teacher, aren't you?
There is something I wanted to ask you.
Tell me.
You were the only one who could have heard them.
The last words of my teacher.
I didn't speak with him in the end.
Nothing at all?
Since I was born, Teacher had never met with any of the Servamps.
The only one he ever met with was you, the Black Lion who killed him.
So he didn't tell you a thing.
No, perhaps you didn't listen to his words.
Well, either way, the result is the same.
Oh. But... I see.
As I thought, I was the only one Teacher had expectations of.
What was he planning to do by making you the eighth?
You're asking me?!
You should have asked him yourself!
Why didn't you ask?!
Hyde!
Stupid hedgehog...
Misono! Tetsu! Hurry below!
Shirota, what about you?!
Kuro.
I know.
I realize that I was wrong.
That's why I can't step back from here.
I have to face you head on.
We shouldn't be conversing with weapons...
...but with words.
Since our basic stance isn't the same,
we won't be able to agree on anything.
You killed Teacher without having a proper conversation, right?
You should do the same with me!
I'm changing my ways because I regret what I did!
So light!
Your level of regret is so light!
Your words hold no weight here at all!
Hey, just how much of me can you think about?
Hey.
Think like me, become happy the same, worried the same,
angry the same, and frustrated the same.
The question, "Don't you think so, too?"
should only be answered with a yes.
I don't need anything else.
Understand me that way and makes me understand you.
Otherwise, I'm alone.
But that's being alone, too.
So, I'm alone.
People reject the things they don't understand.
They can only protect themselves by rejecting others.
Values that waver lead to the destruction of the world!
Now, let's count down to the destruction of the world!
You...
I no longer have anything to talk about with you.
But I have things to talk about with you!
I'll stop you even if it means I have to beat you down!
That Big Brother face of yours isn't interesting at all.
We have to talk...
...about what I did.
And about what you did.
I don't want to regret things anymore.
Why?
Did Teacher really not speak to you about me at all?
Why Teacher...
...didn't tell you about my existence?
Kid.
Mikuni-san.
Why didn't you run away, kid?
Bravery and stupidity are different things.
I have to get to Kuro.
I don't think the situation calls for your help any longer.
It's between the Servamps now, until one of them breaks.
You're wrong!
Kuro is trying to face it all.
Face Tsubaki.
Face the things he did.
If he's taking responsibility...
...that's the Servamp of Sloth's problem.
Then, why does a Servamp need an Eve?
I'm Kuro's partner.
I'm so happy we won, a flower is one monme!
You can't!
I didn't call you over.
Mahiru!
Not interesting at all.
Hurry, Sendagaya!
You too, Licht! Hurry!
Most problems aren't a problem when one is prepared.
I had all the people in the hotel evacuate, just in case.
You bastards are...
Let's move. Please get on.
Hugh...
Is that the best you can do?!
How weak!
Now...
...die by my hands.
Did you kill Teacher like this, too?!
Kuro!
No!
Kuro, sto—
Sakuya?
I wonder why...
I don't get it, either.
Even though I'm Tsubaki's subclass...
It's no use.
I can never really choose a side.
Kuro! Kuro!
Kuro!
Huh? A key?
Teacher was saying it.
You're number one.
You have more power than your Big Brothers and Sisters.
You're Teacher's best work.
I wonder... if they'll welcome me.
You have the power to kill your Big Brothers and Sisters.
I wonder if they'll come and see me.
Hey, isn't it enough?
Teacher has me.
"The words of truth were lost...
...and the clouds broke off into the sky."
Even though you don't need to anymore, why?
"Oh, in the depths of shining April,
gnashing, burning, coming, going."
Stop! Stop! Don't kill him!
"I am... a single Asura."
I will respond to Teacher's wishes.
The thing he was doing...
I will kill Big Brother.
Things like trust and things like bonds...
...have no meaning to me, Melancholy.
Tsubaki.
"The farmer wearing a straw coat who gazes at me."
"Can you really see me?"
"In the depths of the blinding sea of atmosphere...
...the sorrow is deeper and bluer."
Not interesting at all.
Kuro!
Mahiru! Stand back!
People like you are the most troublesome of all.
"Someone. Someone."
Everyone always thinks that.
Because it's easier.
Because you can't do anything about it.
But the world keeps going because that someone appears.
I wanted to become that "someone," too.
That "someone" isn't me right now.
It isn't you, either.
That's because...
Shirota!
Will you... listen to my last request?
Tell all my subclasses to forget about me and live freely.
It's just a personal problem after this.
Shirota Mahiru, 16 years old.
I love simple things.
I hate troublesome things.
That's why I picked up a cat.
It's really troublesome to do nothing and regret it later.
Want me to buy the cup of ramen you like for dinner tonight?
It's okay even if it's a little expensive.
What are you grinning about?
I can't face you...
