This is Mitejima Subaru-sama.
She was once my master.
I have a favor to ask!
I want to get stronger!
You've gotta train us!
I mean, please train us!
Let's see... "You must hold hands."
Wh-Why, exactly?!
What do you think? My car's a real beauty, huh?
That was dangerous!
You're just a kid, aren't you?
This is really bad!
We're completely surrounded!
The two of you make one whole,
so you need get closer if you want to get stronger.
"Twin Star Exorcists" is a title given to a married couple.
Now, let's continue your training for marriage.
New Residence
N-Now this is a real challenge...
Ow!
Aw, man!
Why do I gotta do tedious crap like this?!
I'm sure there's a point to it.
Your right arm was out of control
because its increased spell power was too much for you to control.
Therefore, Master is telling you to dedicate your daily training to improving your focus
and maintaining a calm state of mind.
I think.
Looks like your focus isn't that great, either!
Compared to yours, it is!
Y-Your skirt...
I-It's important to keep your cool, right?
Right?!
Ow, ow, ow, ow!
Why don't you understand
the way I feel about you?
I love you so much!
If you had only told me sooner...
He's such an idiot.
I'm sorry!
Feelings aren't visible,
so how was she supposed to know?

Do Your Best, Newlyweds Fantastic Moments
Hey, your tea is ready.
This looks good.
H-Hey, tea...
Hay tea?
Your tea is ready, Subaru-sama.
You're not too considerate, are you?
Who serves tea without tea cakes?
What do you expect me to do?
I'm sorry for the wait.
I'm not really in the mood for something this sweet today.
As my pupil, shouldn't you be able to tell how your master feels?
I-I'm sorry.
What are you thinking?!
You expect us to be able to read your mind?!
It's non-verbal communication!
Like knowing where to scratch when the other's itchy,
or finishing each other's sentences.
Then again, you're newlyweds,
so I guess that's still unknown territory.
Newlyweds...
L-Like we keep saying, it's not like that...
This is some tasty green tea.
But all this lecturing is making my shoulders stiff.
So, so exhausted...
Ow!
If you move when I drop such an obvious hint,
it comes off like I'm ordering you around.
Gosh, you're going to make me feel bad.
Enough already!
When are you going to give us some serious training?!
Rokuro—
Since you showed up, we've just been looking after you,
and you haven't done anything!
We don't have time to waste!
There's so much we need to be doing to get stronger.
Even my arm going berserk...
Exorcist Enchantment, Tranquility Spell Talisman,
come forth at once!
This is...
It's a talisman to restrain power. I placed an enchantment on it.
I can't always rely on her to cover for me.
I need to be able to handle things myself...
The way you two are now, no amount of training is gonna do any good.
Why?!
Well, why do you think?
At the least, you're gonna be in trouble until you can figure out what I want,
and what I'm thinking.
How do we do that?!
And what does that have to do with training?!
Thinking about it like that shows how far you've got to go.
I'm stepping out for a walk.
I feel the same as Rokuro.
The same, huh?
Fair enough. Just for a bit, then.
Hide and seek?!
That's...
...the training?
If you two can find me before the sun sets, then you two win.
Do that, and I'll work you so hard, you'll regret it.
Dressed like that?
That's right.
Something wrong with that?
Well, I mean...
This'll be easy!
I gotta say, though, the Twelve Guardians sure are a bunch of weirdos.
Let's get started, then.
Three, two, one...
Already?
Hey, aren't you gonna hide?
Zero.
Come and get me.
Wh-What the?!
A familiar?
Really? When did she switch out?
Let's split up and find her!
Right.
Of course she wouldn't be there...
Man, where did that Subaru run off to?
Benio!
What's wrong?! Did you find her?
What...
is this?!
Cute Kittens
H-How did you find that?!
Menacing
I found it while I was looking for Master,
in the back of one of your desk drawers.
A-Are you...
It's obvious she wouldn't be there!
And—
What is this?
Menacing
Wh-What is...
Come on now, let's hear it!
Menacing
You hormonal little imp!
Menacing
Be quiet, Kinako!
Y-Yes, ma'am...
L-Look, it's just...
Menacing
I said I didn't want it,
but the guys pushed it into my hands, that's all!
Talk about obnoxious, right?!
Sex fiends must die.
I'm... sorry, I guess...
A couple shouldn't hide things from each other.
That little...
There's more.
Oh, also, I'm gonna step out for a bit.
She's messing with us!
Well, this game ends right now!
Wait...
No matter where she's hiding, I'll find her!
But... where do I start looking?
That finally occurred to you?
You should cool your head.
Running around with no plan is just stupid.
Quit calling me stupid!
Do you have some bright idea, then?
I'm thinking.
Hey, did you see that woman?
Maybe she's some kind of entertainer?
She was dressed so fancy, I couldn't help staring!
That was a Kyoto dialect she used, right?
The way she talked was so hilarious!
Where did you see her?!
The fancypants with the Kyoto dialect!
Damn it! We're too late.
Excuse me, what happened to the lady who sat here?
Oh... And you two are?
Well, we were supposed to meet her here,
but it looks like we missed her...
Oh, you're with that beautiful lady?
She said she was going to look around at the clothes shops.
Yes, she was here.
I think she said she was headed to an antique shop next.
Oh, she said she was hungry when she left.
She's not here, either.
I bet she's doing this on purpose!
Excuse me, are you two looking for Mitejima-san?
Yes!
She's actually been coming by fairly regularly lately.
Did she say where she was going next?!
Oh, I don't know about that...
But she did say her party would pay her bill when they arrived later.
Here.
What?!
Come again!
Damn her! How did she eat that much by herself?!
And so fast?!
She can't be human!
But we're out of leads now.
All my money is gone, too!
She totally played us.
I hate to say it, but I give up.
We can't just chase her.
We have to think ahead...
What is she thinking, and what does she want?
If we can predict that...
Then we'll know where she's going?
Gosh, I'm stuffed!
I think I know.
What?!
D-Dieting?!
Wh-What does that have to do with where Subaru is hiding?
Master once said...
Oh, this is awful.
Master?
Isn't there anything I can do about this flab around here?
I-I don't know...
Oh, dear.
So she's dieting?
I think so, anyway...
So that's how you read her?
Still, even if Subaru is crazy,
you think she'd just go to the gym, like a normal person?
Call it... women's intuition.
It's just intuition?!
And "women's"?
Wait... Women?
Rokuro?
Boost your womanly appeal! Fitness Club
This looks good.
Boost your womanly appeal! Fitness Club
That might be it!
She's here!
We've got you, Subaru!
Whoa!
You've got a knack for this.
How'd she put you up to this?!
And you fit in perfectly!
That was a good guess, but sadly, not the right one.
Nice try.
Damn her!
Sorry. I was wrong.
Not really.
Since Tatara was there, you couldn't have been that far off.
Just like Subaru's note said, it was a good guess.
We've almost got her!
I can't wait to see the look on that smug face when we catch her!
Right.
Think about her feelings, huh...
I guess we just have to imagine what she's thinking.
Foolish, useless, good-for-nothing, not to mention—
Not good!
All I can imagine is her insulting me!
Calm down.
Of course, those are more like facts than insults.
What?!
What do you mean, facts?!
Wait, how did you know what I was thinking?
It's pretty easy to tell what you're thinking.
Because you're a simpleton.
O-Oh, yeah? Well, if that's how it goes,
I can tell what you're thinking, too!
I've got it!
You want to eat some ohagi.
Am I right?
See, it's easy for me to tell what you're—
Ow, ow, ow, ow!
That's...
Magano's torn open again?!
It can't be! I didn't sense anything!
Doesn't matter!
Magano gate, open.
Come forth at once!
Where are the Kegare?!
Look out!
Here they come!
Magic Bullet Talisman!
Air Fissure Bullet, come forth at once!
Air Fissure Bullet
Go!
Shores of Enlightenment Dance!
Our attacks aren't working.
What's with this thing?!
But if we could...
...focus our attacks on one spot...
Where are you, Benio?
Rokuro... Where are you?
Stop messing with me, you stupid octopus!
I can't. If I'm not careful, I could hit Benio!
What do I do?
If I could predict how it'll move...
The Kegare's movements...
No, not that.
It's not the Kegare's movements I should be trying to anticipate.
That's right. I can tell...
...exactly what he's thinking.
What would you do?
The first to move would be Rokuro!
Back me up!
A familiar?
That means...
See? You can do it if you try!
To be honest, I didn't expect you to do this well, though.
Even your arm didn't do anything naughty this time.
Oh, now that you mention it...
Trying to grab hold of something you can't see is pointless.
Feelings are like spell power.
You just need to sense them.
Sensing spell power...
Putting that aside, the sun hasn't set yet.
Huh?
That means the hide-and-seek game isn't over yet!
Looks like we win!
Found you, Master.
Oh, dear...
A little bit of praise and you get like this?
You two still need to shape up.
N-No way...
Damn it!
That said...
That was quite the show you gave me.
You were wonderful hosts!
Sorry to impose on you newlyweds for so long.
We're not newlyweds!
I see you're still just a kid in that regard.
Thank you, Master.
Don't thank me until you accomplish what you're after.
Isn't that right?
See y'all later.
In the end, she barely trained us at all.
I think I learned a lot, though.
Yeah.
A note from Master?
What's wrong?
What's all the fuss?
What is this?
Menacing
L-Like I told you, the guys forced it on me...
Also, don't just dig around in my room!
Menacing
Sex fiends must die!
I'm really sorry, I guess.
Nothing's more beautiful than a healthy relationship.
Give me a break...

Hey, I found this in a book by that Nijuuichiche guy.
"The worst enemy you can meet will always be yourself."
That's quite deep, coming from you, Rokuro!
