Haunting 10 "Kureha's Days Spent Waiting in Vain!"
It's a red leaf.
Beware of Bears!!
And in the middle of winter. How unusual.
Adults who wear nothing but a bell in the middle of winter are unusual, too.
Leave me alone!
Don't make me sound like an exhibitionist!
Anyway, where did this red leaf come from?
Sniff, sniff.
I can smell a maple tree over there.
Let's go check it out.
Don't leave without saying anything just because you don't want to go!
Only the leaves of this tree are red.
It's as if it's only autumn right here.
The red leaves sure are beautiful.
Why do leaves turn red?
Is there a corpse underneath the tree?
Don't be so ominous!
Also, that was a cherry tree!
The leaves must be sipping enough lifeblood to replace their green
with this complementary red hue.
Like Elizabeth Bathory.
Don't dig under it to find out!
Maybe this tree was late turning to autumn colours.
No.
This maple tree's leaves are red all year long, regardless of the season.
Oh?
This woman...
What an unusual maple tree.
And who might you be?
Me?
I am...
I'm waiting here for someone.
I promised to meet someone important here.
She must be...
I've waited in vain all this time.
If he couldn't make it...
He could have at least sent a smoke signal.
What era were you born in?
What are you doing this deep in the mountains?
Ta-da!
We've been walking for hours to catch the sale at the supermarket past the mountains.
They've got great bargains!
Cup noodles are five yen off.
They're the sort of people who'd climb mountains to save money regardless of transportation costs!
It's strange that this tree's leaves are red all year long.
Do you know why?
Then...
If someone suddenly asked you why monkeys' bottoms are always red,
could you give an answer?
If you don't know, just say so!
By the way, monkeys have red bottoms
because their blood is visible through the skin.
Do you know or don't you?!
"Because it's a mysterious maple tree" is my final answer.
I'm disappointed.
I thought the person I was waiting for had finally come,
but it was just some cosplayer with a little girl.
I'm not cosplaying!
What? Then are you wearing animal ears to be fashionable?
I'm the real Kokkuri-san!
That's why I look like this!
I see. I'm sure that's what you think.
I'm not pretending!
Look. I'm the real deal.
Kon, kon.
How does that work? Where's the switch?
Where's the battery?
Hey, s-stop!
He is not battery-operated.
Don't!
I-I'm not...
She mistook him for a toy.
Hey! Stop!
You said you thought someone had finally come.
Have you been waiting alone in these cold mountains all this time?
Yes. I've been waiting forever.
Through spring...
summer...
fall...
and winter.
I practically live here.
Wow. She's patient.
I would have left after three minutes.
You eat cup noodles in three minutes when they're meant to stand for five, don't you?
What kind of person are you waiting for?
Is it a handsome prince?
Why are you sweating?
I've been waiting so long, I don't remember what he looks like.
If you've forgotten that, just go home.
Kokkuri-san, the sale is starting.
Oh, right.
We're gonna get going.
Wait!
If you're heading into town, could you find the person I'm waiting for and bring him here?
I'm unable to leave this place, for certain reasons.
Please.
What should we do?
Rice Coupon 10kg
I'll give you two months' worth of rice coupons.
Leave it to me!
Saving money, saving money!
Use this drawing to help you.
I drew it long ago, so I'm sure it's accurate.
You didn't beautify him, did you?
No.
Okay, we're off.
Oh, but you haven't told us your name yet.
My name?
Kureha.
It's written as "red leaves" and pronounced "Kureha."
Kureha. It's written as red leaves" and pronounced "Kureha."
Kureha, huh?
Those out-of-season bright red leaves...
And a girl whose name is written as "red leaves" standing under that maple tree.
"Kureha"
It fits too well to be a coincidence.
Most likely...
Kureha is the spirit of the maple tree.
Please refrain from discussing the supernatural while we're in town.
It's like all the pieces have fallen into place.
If Kureha is the spirit of the tree, that explains everything.
She can't go far from the tree because she is its spirit.
The maple tree's leaves are red because it's possessed by a spirit.
I accepted 500 yen to listen to your babble, but it's just too boring!
What? When did you get here?!
Kitty, kitty.
She's playing with a cat over there...
It's so fluffy.
So fluffy.
Don't meow at me.
How will we find the person she's waiting for?
I'm not sure.
What's this?
It's so-and-so and such-and-such, and such-and-such and so-and-so.
Then, such-and-such and so-and-so.
Oh, really?
I'm amazed you understood that. I have no idea what she said.
Leave it to me.
Just ask a mountain god. They know everything that happens in the mountains.
Tengu
Tengu!
This man, huh?
"Mountain God Tengu"
Yeah, I know him.
Really?
Yes.
Where is he?
I won't tell you for free.
How much will it cost?
Three.
For three photos of handsome young boys, I'll help you.
I don't have any!
Pant
I don't want any of those phony child idols, either.
Pant
I prefer pure amateurs.
Pant
Boys' choirs are okay, though.
Pant
Don't make such specific requests without the slightest shame, you g*y pedo!
Pant
Tengu-san likes young boys.
Pant
It's the official Japanese standard for tengus to like little boys!
What's wrong with liking boys?!
Don't get defiant!
You pervert!
Shut up, you lolicon jerk!
Pervert!
Shut up, lolicon!
Stop this pointless fighting.
Stay out of this, you loli!
A
Tengu-san likes young boys
Twitch
It's said that dolls are unperturbed.
If you don't have any photos, take some.
Can't you transform into anything, even a little boy?
Ack!
Let me do it!
Taking pictures of an old man dressed up to look young feels so pointless.
Then don't take them!
But I accept your payment.
I will tell you.
The person you're looking for
died long ago.
What?
It happened decades ago.
The girl waiting for him
also died long ago.
She's a ghost bound to that tree, waiting for a man who will never come.
How sad it is.
What? A bound ghost?!
Kokkuri-san's guess was way off the mark.
Damn.
I was wrong. How embarrassing! I'd better make sure Kohina doesn't tell.
Kureha is the spirit of the maple tree.
It's like all the pieces have come together.
She's got dirt on me!
Was their promise so important that she was bound to that tree after death?
It happens all the time.
A childhood friend heads off to war and never comes back as he promised to.
It's straight out of a cheap novel.
I understand she has regrets,
but she should forget about that promise and move on to the afterlife.
Speaking of the afterlife,
I hope I'm reborn as a little boy so I can play with other boys...
Keep your pedophilia in check!
I promise I'll come back. Wait for me.
I'll come home as quickly as I can.
Your name will be the first one I call when I return,
Kureha.
Liar...
She probably knows the man is dead.
I wish I could help her reach the afterlife, but it's tough.
All I can do is give people information
and hit on young boys.
You're good for nothing.
Just die already.
A bound ghost, huh?
Bound...
"Ground"
Change the way she's "bound," and you've got an adult B-movie.
"Bondage"
You must not let your libido soar on wings of imagination.
Anyway...
B-Bringing him back is... mission impossible...
You know... I knew. I knew all along...
Y-Yeah... So you don't have to wait for him anymore.
You can cross-
I knew.
But I kept waiting.
I can't cross over to the afterlife now!
Hey... Hey...
The stress built up inside of her exploded.
I couldn't give up on my own.
I thought I could if someone else made me face the truth.
But I can't give up, after all.
Good grief. I don't like hearing girls cry.
I'll call him.
What?
You can do that?
I'm a priest, you know.
Invoking spirits is my speciality.
I'm actually not supposed to meddle with the other side too much,
but a man who isn't moved by a woman's tears is no man at all.
I'll show you what it really means to invoke a spirit, and not as child's play.
Hello?
Could you connect me to the Hirasaka Underworld?
Did he dial 104?
Did he dial
Directory Assistance?
Did he dial
I'll get his spirit delivered right away.
Delivery service?
Oh, hello. I'd like to get something delivered.
What? My name? Identification?
My name is Shigaraki-
Click
They hung up on me when I told them my name.
What did you do?
He's blacklisted by every industry for being a professional bilker.
I wish I could try again, but I don't have the strength.
I can't connect to the other side anymore.
Sorry I couldn't help you, miss.
It's fine.
Connecting to the underworld must be spiritually exhausting.
Remaining Funds: 0 Yen
No. I have a prepaid phone.
The strength he lacked was financial strength.
A
Doesn't have the financial strength
I will lend you my phone.
Thank you.
Hello, this is Ki**taku.
Don't pretend to be someone else!
Give me that. I'll do the talking.
Sorry to bother you while you're so busy.
We worked together while I was a contractor at the Uka-no-Mitama Company.
Yes. Yes.
I'd like to check your inventory of spirits.
Yes. That's correct.
Kokkuri-san's maturity saved the day.
Yes. Yes.
Goodbye.
Okay. I understand.
You honest citizen...
What did you find out? Can you invoke his spirit?
Kureha, I have good news and bad news.
Which do you want first?
What?
The bad news first, I guess.
The bad news, huh?
Your boyfriend's spirit can't be invoked.
After he died, he didn't wait for you.
He was asked to be reincarnated immediately.
The good news is that you don't have to wait anymore.
That's good news?
Yes.
The person you promised to meet came to you a long time ago.
Your boyfriend chose to be reborn as a maple tree for some reason.
Your name will be the first one I call when I return,
Kureha.
Red. Every time I think of you, the leaves turn red.
What a patient couple.
So there really are matches made in heaven.
Why do I seem to attract nothing but losers?
Meanwhile, it might have slipped your mind by now, but...
Inugami-san, having run away from home, was talking to Yamamoto-kun.
Don't be stubborn. You should go home.
I don't want to.
I won't go home until they come get me!
After that, he wandered around aimlessly.
He saw many things and encountered many strange places and people.
How small my world is.
All my concerns are no more than "every little thing."
And his mental maturity grew a great deal.
No, they are "every little Kohina!"
E.L.K! E.L.K!
Every little thought is for Kohina-sama!
His mental maturity... grew a great deal?
Why was I being so stubborn?
Having a home to return to is a wonderful thing.
I shall return to Kohina-sama.
Hot! Hot, hot, hot!
Hot, hot, hot, hot, hot!

"Burned Up Badly in the Atmosphere"
There are still unsolved mysteries surrounding this tree.
What?
Normally, plants use the chlorophyll in their green leaves to photosynthesise nutrients.
Photosynthesis!
Chlorophyll
Let's photo- synthesise.
But...
These red leaves lack chlorophyll.
This tree should be dead.
Don't insert biology into fantasy!
Honestly, it's exhausting.
What?
I knew it.
You can talk?!
