3 Ibaragi (as Shoukiku Dayuu): On a moonlit night, when the flowers are in bloom... between lovers, there is no difference between human and youkai. And thus begins tonight's musical programme: Ibaragi: "The Wisteria Diary - Or, the Night in Which the Oni-kui Tengu Recovers His Past" (No idea if I translated that right - old personal diary/novels "soushi" were sometimes given romantic names, like the "makura soushi" or "pillow book" by Sei Shounagon.) Ibaragi: I hope you enjoy it. 4 Text: The Wisteria Diary - Or, the Night in Which the Oni-kui Tengu Recovers His Past - The Tale of Kiyome (note: Ibaragi says that Yuri's favorite play is the Legend of Doujouji Temple, in which the heroine is a young girl named Kiyohime. She falls in love with a priest, Anchin, who rejects her. She tries everything to win his heart, but finally her love turns to great hatred and she is transformed into monstrous snake. Anchin tries to escape her destruction by taking refuge under the bell at Dojoji Temple. But in her madness, Kiyohime breathes fire on the bell and burns her love to death. Yay for allusions to one of my favorite plays, hehe.) 5 no text 6 Kantarou: Whoa... you really want a lot of stuff... Paper: Shoukiku Dayuu's Shopping List Kantarou SFX: *stomp* Kantarou: Why does she have to be EVIL?! Kantarou: Sometimes I really hate this stupid scar on my chest!! Kantarou SFX: WAAAAHHH!!! Kantarou: I don't care if she's an oni!! She's hot!! Haruka SFX: Shut the hell up!! Haruka: So if she wasn't an oni, you'd fall in love with her? 7 Yuri: That was wonderful! There were so many people this time! Shoukiku-neesan, you can really draw customers!! Yuri: Your gidayuu ballad dramas are so popular these days that they're starting to cause quite a social riot! Yuri: Ah, I want to be up on stage too when I'm a professional tayuu... Yuri: I want to be just like you, nee-san... Ibaragi: And since when have you been calling me nee-san? Yuri: Ah... um... I didn't mean... Yuri: To call you that... Ibaragi: It's alright. Ibaragi: Perhaps I'll let you see you favorite drama, "The Tale of Doujouji Temple" 8 Mother: I suppose I can't change your feelings now, Kantarou? Kantarou: Nope, I'm stubborn. Kantarou: You know that better than anyone... Kantarou: Mother... (foster mother or step mother) 9 Mother: ...That's true. Kantarou: Well then, I'm going. Kantarou: Please, don't worry so much. Kantarou: Am I really such a terrible son...? SFX: *door closing* Mother: Hearts can change, you know... Mother: Kantarou... 10 Youko: WHAT?! Another youkai extermination request?! Youko: But don't we already have 10 cases?! Kantarou: No way! Uh, I've got to write a thesis on folklore! That's way more important!! Kantarou SFX: *zoom* Youko SFX: *ufufufu* Youko: Say that to your customers, Kan-chan... Youko: You can't run, Kan-chan... Youko: Look, I've calculated how much money we can make from these contracts... ufufufufu... Kantarou: Wah! She's possessed! Youko: Come on, let's party! Play with me~! Kantarou: Go play with Haruka!! Youko: Silly, Haruka-chan won't play with me! Youko: Can't you have a little fun? You have respectable, honest job~! Kantarou: Uwaah, Haruka!! Youko: Play with me~~~!! 11 Haruka: Fine, whatever. Haruka: I'm coming. Haruka: Okay, sit down. Haruka: Got any floor cushions? Haruka: Gotta have candy, too. Haruka: Hey, what kind of game are we playing? Kantarou: ...... 12 Youko: Oh? What's this you have here, Haruka-chan? Youko: Wah, shiny things! Youko: Are these new? Kantarou: Didn't I tell you not to go out on your own? Kantarou SFX: *smile* Kantarou: You've been a bad boy, Haruka-san. *heart* Haruka: Yeah. Text: *serious face* Haruka: So what? It's my business. I don't need your permission. Kantarou: Ooh, I see, I see! If you don't need that, then you don't need this bowl! Kantarou: WHAT?! 13 Kantarou: Haruka?! You've been going out alone late at night?! But when?! How?! Kantarou: I thought I said you weren't allowed!! Kantarou: You're losing it!! Haruka: Hmm, well I saved this girl who got assaulted by a man on her way home from work, so she asked me to be her bodyguard. Haruka: She gives me these out of thanks. Kantarou: I forbid it! Kantarou: Damn it, Haruka doesn't listen to a word I say! Youko: Oh come on, let it go. SFX: *walk* Haruka: Quit whining, you're the one who just had to come along. Kantarou: Where is this stupid girl?! You don't even know her - she could be using you! Haruka: Ah, here she comes. 14 Yuri: I'm so sorry, Haruka-san! I'm late! Yuri: My lessons ran a little long, you see... Haruka: It's nothing. I wasn't waiting long. Kantarou: She's so CUTE!! Yuri: Oh, Haruka-san, are these your friends? Kantarou: Good evening, Miss! I'm Haruka's dear, dear friend, Ichinomiya Kantarou! Youko: Uh... Yuri: Oh, you must take very good care of Haruka-san, then! My name is Kuramae Yuri. 15 Kantarou: Um, Yuri-san... a young girl like you shouldn't be walking around alone this late at night... no wonder you were attacked. Kantarou: Can't you leave a little earlier? Yuri: Well, it's because I'm just an apprentice performer... Yuri: It just gets so late sometimes... SFX: *silence* Kantarou: ...Yeah, but Haruka's not supposed to go out at night... Hey, Haruka...! 16 Haruka: Alright, alright, I get it, but what am I supposed to do?! Kantarou: Haruka! Promise me you'll come home right after work! Kantarou: Okay? Haruka: ...Yeah, got it. Youko: Kan-chan... Is it really okay? That was almost too easy... Youko: And it is really dangerous for a girl to be walking alone at night... Kantarou: And? Ibaragi: This is only temporary, Haruka. Ibaragi: You cannot change what you were before the seal was broken... 17 Raikou: Today's performance was splendid as usual, Raikou: Shoukiku. 18 Raikou: Well done, Raikou: Ibaragi Douji. Ibaragi: You just let yourself into people's rooms? Raikou: What are you talking about? This is my house. I don't apprciate you forgetting that fact. Ibaragi: Don't you talk to me like that, boy. 19 Ibaragi: You need me to get the dirt on the Oni-kui Tengu and Ichinomiya Kantarou. Ibaragi: But who would help you if you whine like a brat? Ibaragi: You had best follow orders, or... SFX: *grab* Watanabe: Excuse my rudeness. Watanabe: If you insist on threatening my master, I must restrain you, Ibaragi-done. Ibaragi: Watanabe...!! Watanabe: Reflecting on our failure several days ago, I, Watanabe Suekichinobu, accept full responsibility. Please accept my apologies. Watanabe: I beg for the forgiveness from my master, Minamoto Raikou. Watanabe: It is very difficult to act on the orders of several parties, but had I known the danger of a prominent member of society having his good name tarnished, I would have acted in the best public interest. Watanabe: Without leadership, there can be no peace or prosperity - if all people were allowed to act as they saw fit, yes, it would seem like a utopian existance for a short while, but paradise without order is merely the pretense of paradise. 20 Raikou: That's enough, Watanabe. Ibaragi: Honestly, listening to you talk is worse than hearing a Nue scream. (A nue is a kind of chimera youkai that was killed by Minamoto Yorimasa when its howls disturbed the Emperor's sleep) Watanabe: Please forgive me, my lady. SFX: *bow* Ibaragi: I hate him... Raikou: Well, is that all? Raikou: This path should lead directly to our goals. Raikou: Is everyone with me? 21 Ibaragi: Our goal... Ibaragi: Is to deliver the Oni-kui Tengu to our master. Ibaragi: I've split off from you. This time, I'll work alone. Raikou: Very well. Raikou: But first, just one question. 22 Raikou: Just any old method won't do, will it? SFX: *boooored* Woman: He's been like this for some time... Woman: But he just keeps getting worse and worse... oh, dear me, could this be because I was too soft in raising him...? Woman: Is that why he's become so strange and obsessive...? Kantarou: It's not an obsession... I've found three youkai already... Woman: Oh sensei, my poor little boy is possessed? Kantarou: Yes... 23 Kantarou: He's possessed. Kantarou: By badgers... SFX: *drooool* Kantarou: When they find someone they like, you just can't wake those little critters up. Kantarou handwritten: And with two of them on him, he must really be bad... a badger at heart, you could say? (Badgers are rather notorious in Japanese folk tales for being lazy, drunken, perverse and mischevious.) SFX: *snore* Woman: Yes, that's right, he always falls asleep in class... Woman: So much that he's had to repeat classes more than once... Woman: Sensei!! Please, save my son!! Kantarou: Yes, Ma'am. I'll have those badgers gone in no time. Kantarou: I'll need just a moment alone with them. Woman: Yes! Please, sensei!! SFX: *door closing* SFX: *rattle* 24 SFX: *shake* Kantarou: Please, badger-kun!! Just leave this guy alone and don't make me do anything! Come on, I'm exausted!! Box: Kantarou's persuasive technique. Kantarou: I'll send a nekomata after you! (nekomata are two-tailed cat youkai) Kantarou: Okay, know about two jami to poison you? (no idea what a jami is) Kantarou: Or three shirouneri (the dragon-ish thing in the background) to blow you away?! Badgers: .... Son: .... SFX: *flop* 25 Kantarou: Shit!! Kantarou SFX: WAKE UP YOU LAZYASS!! I WASN'T FINISHED!! Kantarou: This is just too many youkai possessions!! Yuri: Haruka-san! Yuri: I'm so sorry I'm late again!! Haruka: It's no big deal - I felt like taking a walk anyway. ...But, what kind of work do you do, exactly? Harukua: A young woman shouldn't be out this late. Yuri: Haruka-san, come this way, please! 26 Yuri: I'm a apprentice gidayuu performer. Yuri: I'm either taking lessons on theatre or helping out the older performers, so that's why I'm always late. Haruka: Whoa, there's still such a huge crowd here? Yuri: Oh, it's been very crowded lately - it's getting to be a problem. It's all because of the gidayuu performances. Yuri: It's getting really popular, so there are a lot of other girls who want to study gidayuu. Haruka: *yawn* Haruka: Study gidayuu? Huh? Yuri: ....... Yuri: Gidayuu started as the narration and song from the puppet theatre, accompanied by shamisen. (Puppet theatre or bunraku was always very popular as the entertainment of the masses, often even more popular than human actors.) Yuri: So, dramatic recitations performed by women are called gidayuu. And when it's performed by young girls, it's called musume gidayuu. 27 SFX *rustle* Haruka: Let's go. Haruka: There's some shifty-looking guy staring at you. Haruka: Don't worry. Yuri: Ah... 28 SFX: *heart beating fast* Yuri: Thank you so much for walking me home. Haruka: See ya. Yuri: Ah... um... Haruka-san... Yuri: Why don't you come up? Yuri: I'll make you some tea. 29 Haruka: Sorry, I've got stuff to do, so I'm heading home. I promised him, after all. Ibaragi: We all seek tranquility. Even an imperial general will pasue on a spring day. To turn the father's wrath to joy, the mother must compromise. (Since I can only partially make out Ibaragi's song, and it's written in old-style Japanese, and there are weird markings I've never seen before... hehe, this part is extremely vague). Ibaragi: There was a yamabushi who had made thirty-three pilgramages to the three shrines at Kumano. He kept his dark hair tonsured, as was his duty. He was greatly respected. 30 Ibaragi: Some time later, this man was sitting calmy on a stool, resting. That was when Kiyohime came. Ibaragi: She was staying there on pilgrimage, and fell in love with him at first sight. She risked a furtive, fleeting, but amorous glance. 31 SFX: *twang* SFX: *shock* Yuri: Thank you very much for today's lesson, Shoukiku-neesan! Shoukiku: Oh, and how are things going with that man you've been seeing lately? Yuri: Ah! Yuri: Yesterday, I even asked him to have tea in my room! it was wonderful... 32 Youko: Okay, Kan-chan, just a quick tea break! Youko: Then it's off to your next job! Kantarou SFX: *flop* 33 SFX: *sizzle* Kantarou: No... no more... I'm too tired... Youko: But don't you like meeting lots of youkai? Kantarou: The youkai are fine! It's the humans that are a pain in the ass! Kantarou: I have met the most selfish, hard-headed, good-for-nothing people today! Kantarou: They really deserved the youkai they got stuck with! Kantarou: Like in the last place I visited, there was the cucumber-loving idiot who got possessed by a kappa. And what did he do? He ate cucumbers! (Kappa are sort of swamp vampire creatures, but they like eating cucumbers more than they like eating people) Kantarou: Huh? Kantarou: Wait, are kappa even the kind of youkai that possess people? (As far as I know, they're not) Woman: Sorry to trouble you, sensei... 34 Woman: Sensei... it happened again... Badgers: *snore* Son: *snore* Kantarou: WAKE UP, YOU LOUSY EXCUSE FOR A SON!! Kantarou: Okay, we've got to find out what's making you so sleepy! Kantarou: Any ideas? Where do these badgers keep coming from? Son: Hmm, not really... Kantarou: Ah! 35 Kantarou: What's that big bell doing here?! Son: Ahaha, my dad was a real theatre fan. It was his hobby to collect stage props - pretty dumb, huh? Hahaha... Kantarou: Isn't this the bell from "Doujouji?" (He's referring to the Doujouji Temple play that I mentioned before). Kantarou: [A girl named Kiyohime was out travelling, and on her way she met a yamabushi. It was love at first sight. But the yamabushi already had a fiancee. He had no interest in Kiyohime's love.] (A yamabushi is a moutain priest.) Kantarou: [Her jealously transformed her into a demon. Kiyohime, now in the form of a giant snake, chased the monk into Doujouji Temple, where he hid under the bell. Kiyohime burned him to death with her flames.] Kantarou: [Doujouji...] Kantarou: It's a tragic tale of love gone wrong... Kantarou: And that's the legend of the demon Kiyohime. 36 Yuri: Please, take this as a gift from me. Yuri: It's a brooch with a picture of peach blossoms blooming in spring... it reminded me of your name. Yuri: Please take it... Haruka: My name? Yuri: Yes, it's a nice name! I like it! Haruka: ...Then no. Haruka: If it's because of my name, I can't accept this from you. 37 Haruka: I hate when people use my name lightly. Kantarou: Haruka! 38 Kantarou: Thanks for keeping our promise. Haruka: It's not like I wanted to come home. I'm bound by my name. Kantarou: Ah, that's right! I've got you in the palm of my hand! SFX: *poke* Haruka: Yeah, thanks a lot. Kantarou: Haruka, are you getting used to your name? Do you like it? 39 Haruka: Uh... Haruka: What, "Haruka" isn't good enough? Kantarou: Haruka, you're so... Kantarou: You... 40 Haruka: "Oni yori haruka ni tsuyoi" - "stronger than any demon." Haruka: Right? 41 Haruka: That name doesn't suit me at all as I am now. Haruka: Hey, I... 42 SFX: *whoosh* Haruka: Hey, what do you think you're doing?! Yuri: Go Haruka-san!! Haruka: ...... Guy: !? SFX: *slam* 43 SFX: *grab* Haruka: You're nowhere near my level, asshole! Guy: Gyaaaah!!! SFX: *splash* Yuri: That man... he was after me!! SFX: *grab* Yuri: Oh Haruka-san... if you hadn't been here... 44 Haruka: We shouldn't see eachother anymore. Haruka: It was a farce just now, wasn't it? You hired that man, didn't you? Haruka: I wasn't paying enough attention to you, so you decided to play a little game... Yuri: How could you say such a thing?! Yuri: We're a couple, aren't we? Haruka: ........ Haruka: How is that?! We've just been meeting up... Yuri: But Haruka-san!! 45 Yuri: You're the one I love!! Kantarou: Huh? Haruka's still home? 46 Haruka: I don't care what you say, I'm not going. Kantarou: But I wonder if Yuri-chan is alright... Kantarou: I guess it troubles you that she likes you... Haruka: That girl... SFX: *jingle* Haruka: Is trouble... Youko: Wait, Kan-chan, where are you going?! Youko: You don't have a job! 47 Youko: Tch... Haruka: ...What a pain. Kantarou: I think this is the place... Kantarou: Haruka waits for her here, I think... somewhere around here... Son: Ah! Ichinomiya-sensei, is that you?! Son: What a coincidence! Kantarou: You... Son: Do you feel the love, too? Oh sensei, do tell~ We're so close, after all~ Kantarou: Uh... what? Son: Oh, don't play coy~~ 48 Son: Come on, who's your favorite girl? Kantarou: Musume gidayuu?! Kantarou: No way... Kantarou: Um... do you know a girl named Kuramae Yuri? Son: Ooh, sensei has good taste! Son: She's new here, but she's sooo cute! Son: She's so amazing that there are loads of guys after her. 49 Son: Hey, you know that play called "Inugami" (The Dog God) Son: Have you seen it? It's really good! Kantarou: I don't really follow theatre, but I know of it. Kantarou: You're a fan of Ayanokouji Shoukiku, then? Son: H... How did you know?! Have you ever seen her?! SFX: *stop* Catgirl: Ichinomiya-sama. Catgirl: Shoukiku-sama has called for you. 50 Catgirl: Please come inside... Catgirl: Shoukiku-sama is waiting. Son: Oh, Ichinomiya-sensei, you know Shoukiku-chan personally?! I'm so jealous!! SFX: *bang* Son: Please, take me with you!! Son: Nooo, Ichinomiya-sensei, don't go!! Haruka: Kantarou already went in...? 51 SFX: *look look* SFX: *whoosh* Yuri: Shoukiku-neesan... Yuri: Let me hear "Doujouji"... Yuri: I'll feel better if I hear that story... Ibaragi: Very well. 52 SFX: *strumming shamisen* 53 Kantarou: That song... it's from "Doujouji"... Kantarou: Coincidence...? Son: Ichinomiya-sensei!! Son: Ichinomiya-sensei!! Kantarou: Huh?! Son: Wah, you left me, how mean!! Son: Let me in~~! Kantarou: ! Kantarou: Alright, I'll let you in. Kantarou: But there's something I want you to do in return. 54 Ibaragi: The dragon calls you - be like that which spans the great oceans. Ibaragi: He will writhe and burn in the flames that issue from your breath. SFX: *twang* Yuri: ! 55 Ibaragi: Breathing fire, your eyes burning with hatred, your hair in disarray - your resolution, your devotion such that you would do anything in your power... Yuri: Ah... Yuri: Ahh... Ibaragi: This man has been etched in your soul... Yuri: Ah... Ahh!! Ibaragi: Become the serpent that hunted the yamabushi... Ibaragi: Become the demon that burned her lover inside a bell... SFX: *shock* 56 Ibaragi: Become Kiyohime... 57 Ibaragi: Make that man burn... 58 Ibaragi: The youkai of legends will be reborn... I have the power... Ibaragi: The power within my gidayuu! Yuri: KYAAAAAA!!! 59 Catgirl: This way, please. Kantarou: Huh? Kantarou: But... SFX: *sigh* Kantarou: Ah... SFX: *gulp* 60 Ibaragi: Ah, there you are, Ichinomiya-sensei. You're just in time... Ibaragi: To see the revival... Ibaragi: Of the demon who burned her lover with the fire of her madness... Ibaragi: Kiyohime. 61 SFX: *wham* SFX: *jump* SFX: *impact* 62 SFX: *impact* Haruka: What's happened to you?! Yuri: I love you... I love you... Yuri: But I can't have you... 63 Yuri: So I'll kill you!! SFX: *slam* SFX: *crackle* Yuri: ?! 64 SFX: *impact* Haruka: This has gone far enough. Open your eyes!! Yuri: Grrr... SFX: *fire* Yuri: DIE!! 65 Kantarou: Yuri-chan is possessed the spirt of Kiyohime! Kantarou: Is she trying to kill Haruka?! Ibaragi: They're fighting on the stage as we speak. Kantarou: What the... Kantarou: !? Kantarou: I can't move... Ibaragi: There's nothing you can do. Ibaragi: The true instincts of the Oni-kui Tengu of Koushingan will be awakened. Kantarou: Wh... why are you doing this...? Ibaragi: You don't let him feed on youkai, do you? After all, you're the youkai exterminator who makes friends with youkai. 66 Ibaragi: We have one request. Ibaragi: We want you to remove the name bond you placed on the Oni-kui Tengu. Ibaragi: Ichinomiya Kantarou-san. 67 Ibaragi: He and I have the same goal. Ibaragi: And we will achieve that goal... by any means necessary. Kantarou: "He...?" Ibaragi: ...They've stopped moving. Ibaragi: It should be over by now. Kantarou: I... I can move... SFX: *surprise* Ibaragi: Come along. Ibaragi: You can see the Oni-kui Tengu of Koushingan with your own eyes. 68 Haruka: ...... Haruka: Ah, Kantarou: Haruka: Good, you brough that bitch. Ibaragi: What's wrong with you?! What didn't you eat the oni?! Ibaragi: You're supposed to be the oni-eating demon!! 69 Ibaragi: You should be ashamed to call yourself a youkai! You idiot, you're supposed to be the strongest! You're a disappointment, and you're unreliable, like all men! Haruka: What the hell is wrong with her...? SFX: I feel sick... SFX: WTF?! Son: Sensei!! SFX: *surprise* Son: I've got it! I've got the bell from Doujouji!! Kantarou: Haruka!! Cover Yuri-chan with that bell!! 70 Ibaragi: A bell?! Ibaragi: What are you doing with that?! Son: Wah, Shoukiku-chan! *heart* Yuri: I'LL KILL YOU!! Yuri: I'LL KILL MY LOVE... Son: Shoukiku-san... WAH! Haruka: I'm not eating anybody, so... 71 Haruka: Too bad!! SFX: *whoosh* SFX *wham* 72 Kantarou: At that time the World-Honored One calmly arose from his cushion and addressed his student. Kantarou: And he said: ""The wisdom of the Buddhas is infinitely profound and immeasurable." (These are lines from the Lotus Sutra, a Buddhist Text.) 73 Kantarou: "Reality consists of appearance, nature, entity, and power..." Kantarou: "Influence, inherent cause, relation, latent effect, manifest effect..." Kantarou: "And their consistency from beginning to end." Yuri: AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! 74 Son: Waah!! This must be a rehearsal for the next show!! How cool! Son: Wow, how do these stay on?! Haruka: Uhh... Ibaragi: She's back to normal... Kantarou: In the Doujouji play, Kiyohime is defeated by the power of the Lotus Sutra. Kantarou: Both the girl and the yamabushi were saved by the power of its words. Ibaragi: Yes, that's the play as it is performed on the Noh stage and in the puppet theatre, but it is merely a tragic love story. Ibaragi: *hmph* 75 Ibaragi: Just as he says, you're no ordinary man, Ichinomiya Kantarou. (The "he" refers to Raikou, who she called "bouya" or "boy") Ibaragi: You win this time. Kantarou: Then as my reward, tell me one thing - why are you working with Minamoto? Ibaragi: ...Because the motives of my master happen to coincide with theirs. Kantarou: ...Who? Son: Wah, Shoukiku-san! Let's meet tomorrow! Kantarou: Uh, actually, I think they're going to have to suspend public performances for a while... Son: Ah... Kantarou SFX: *breathing hard* Kantarou And I think I'm going to take a break from these youkai possession cases... 76 Haruka: Hey, Kantarou, you don't look so good. Kantarou: Forgive me, I'm going home. Haruka, will you please walk Yuri-chan home? Yuri: Haruka-san... Haruka: Are you alright? Yuri: But.. I told you that I loved you... SFX: *movement* Haruka: Did you really mean that? Haruka: You were possessed, after all. Yuri: That's right! 77 Yuri: I can't stand clueless guys~! Yuri: Take care! Yuri: Haruka-san~ Haruka: I've been defeated... 78 Youko: Hey, Haruka-chan, I'm going out to do some shopping. Take care of Kan-chan! Haruka: Sure... Kantarou: I'll be fine... Kantarou: *breathing hard* Kantarou: I always get like this when I meet an oni. Don't worry. Haruka: Well, you can't help that. Haruka: Anything I can get for you? Kantarou: Yes... 79 Haruka: What? You want some water? Haruka: Hold on a minute... Haruka: Don't say anything. Kantarou: My sins are too deep... 80 Watanabe: Hey! Watch it with the flowers! Watanabe: I know you're in a bad mood - we're all feeling the same way. Watanabe: But this isn't the way to act... Ibaragi: Oh, a little thing like that won't make me angry... Ibaragi: There's very little that can make me truly angry... Ibaragi: What I really want is blood, not bouquets... men are so useless. 81 Watanabe: You should ask for Raikou-sama's forgiveness. Watanabe: If you know what's best... Ibaragi: I... Ibaragi: I really hate this place... Raikou: Hmm... the Oni-kui Tengu... Raikou: Has three seals upon him... 82 Raikou: Firstly, he was cut off from the physical world. Raikou: Secondly, his memories were sealed away. Raikou: And lastly, he lost much of his power and brutality. Raikou: And what does that man have to do with it...? Raikou: Can I not reach him? Edwards: Hello? Raikou: Ah! Raikou: There you are! 83 Edwards: Ah, thank goodness, General Minamoto-dono. Raikou: It looks like our plans are going to be a lot more interesting from now on! Raikou: Edwards!! Edwards: I brought you some wine as a present! (In Japan, you bring presents for your host.) Edwards: It's the deep red kind you like. 84 Raikou: How about a toast to our success? SFX: *pour* Raikou: We have all grown tired of waiting... Raikou: At last... after hundred of years... Raikou: Ah! SFX: *splash* Raikou: "Haruka" doesn't suit you at all... Raikou: Oni-kui Tengu...
