Raishin!

This desperate love sucks away the pain
watashi wo ooitsukusu no
私を覆い尽くすの
And engulfs me completely
doredake no namida wo kakushite kita no darou
どれだけの涙を 隠してきたのだろう
I wonder how many of these tears I have hidden from you
ochite yuku shizuku ni utsuru gyokuto
落ちてゆく雫に 映る玉兎
These falling teardrops which reflect the moon
hanabira mo itsuka wa chiriyuki sora ni mau
花びらもいつかは 散りゆき空に舞う
Even the flower petals that are eventually scattered throughout the sky

過ぎてゆく無常の 意味 教えて
Tell me the meaning behind the uncertainty of life
sangoya no utage owari hitoshirezu samishikute
三五夜の宴 終わり 人知れず寂しくて
At the end of the harvest moon banquet I'm still lonely inside
akashite wa ikenai himitsu uchiaketaku naru no
明かしてはいけない秘密 打ちあけたくなるの
I want to open up my heart and reveal the secret I mustn't reveal

Close enough to touch

I reached my hand out for you

Let me dream of us being in love
amamitsutsuki ni
あまみつつきに
On the night of the full moon
Raishin... Raishin!
Wait, Yaya.
You're being watched.
But Raishin...!
What happened?!
Our first priority is to find the headmaster!
If you make a wrong move,
they'll have Second Last in their sights, too.
But...
You know his unholy luck better than anyone.
Follow me.
Where?
I have my own ideas, but I can't make the decision on my own.
So I'll consult my comrades.
I... killed someone...
Have you calmed down?
I'm fine now.
Then let's go.
We're being pursued.
Yeah, I'm sure we are.
Automatons!
You're so troublesome.
We're withdrawing.
It would seem you're not prepared to see this through.
I killed the headmaster, just like you told me to!
You have Sigmund.
I'm sure you could have obliterated him and his guards without resorting to such roundabout methods.
I kept my promise.
No, not yet.
The headmaster's death hasn't been confirmed.
Ah, yes!
Let me show you something entertaining.
Henri!
You almost killed her, you know.
Aren't you glad you didn't aim directly at the headmaster?
She fell into an underground cavern when the earth collapsed.
Oh, what's this?
It looks like Second Last is there, too!
Hey!
Wake up!
Henri!
Henriette!
Are you all right?
Are you hurt anywhere?
No!
A man!
No! No! No! No!
Hey, quit that!
Look around!
You fell down here with me!
The ceiling is about to collapse.
We need to find a way out, and quick.
Just leave me alone.
What a bratty little rich girl.
Go ahead without me.
Told you so.
This used to be a testing ground for taboo magic.
I hear thousands of people got buried alive right below us.
The few who managed to survive started eating each other.
Ripping out organs, drinking blood, and chewing on the bones...
People say the one remaining survivor still wanders this maze.
T-That's just a clichéd ghost story!
Pure fiction!
W-What's wrong?
Hey, do you hear something?
What?
Oh no, stop it!
There he is!
No!
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
Um, hey... Sorry.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
I was joking.
J-Joking?
It was just a modified version of a ghost story from my home town.
I'm an exchange student!
How would I know about this place?
Y-You're cruel!
Shameful!
I thought I'd soil myself!
Look, I don't know if there's another world after this one,
but if so, it might be a dark, damp place like this,
with dead people wandering around.
Somebody afraid of ghosts shouldn't be trying to go there.
I'm as afraid of death as anyone else.
Well, my partner is the jealous type,
so if she finds out I'm alone with a woman,
she'll follow me to the ends of the earth.
So we'll be fine.
Help will come.
We still don't know whether the headmaster is safe?
And I hear some students got mixed up in this, too.
Yes, an Oriental student and a girl apparently fell down there.
Ouch...
Oriental...
This area is off-limits.
U-Um, just for a moment...?
No.
Crying won't get you in.
Loki...
He's just been discharged, and he's already in trouble?
The man is bloody cursed.
You stay out of this.
Otherwise you'll be cursed as well.
Raishin...
Well, what shall we do, Sister Nightingale?
I'm pondering that now, Brother Turtledove.
It's obvious what the enemy is after.
We should guard the headmaster.
It's also a fine chance to observe this "Cathedral of Fools" for our selves.
But we can't make any rash moves and let the Cathedral be destroyed with him.
Our work is observation and monitoring.
Our objective is containment, not putting a stop to its development.
Naturally.
Now, I believe you said Second Last is also missing?
Yes.
He's quick-witted and strangely perceptive.
You can always find him at the centre of any commotion.
The lone Akabane survivor...
Might he be the one Father foresaw?
It's possible.
Very well.
We'll seek Father's instructions.
Um, what will we do about Raishin?
Nothing right now.
But I'll vouch for his short-term safety.
Well, if he's the man Father foresaw,
I highly doubt he'd die in a place like that.
Now then...
This is a really big chamber.
Are you all right?
No!
Don't touch me!
Why do you hate men so much?
I hate them.
They're scary, violent, stupid, and pushy.
Well, I'm glad you're all right.
You better watch your step from now on.
O-Okay...
Ouch!
What's wrong?!
Can I have a look?
That hurts!
Guess we'll be here for a bit...
Here.
They got crushed, but they're still edible.
You sure are Charl's little sister.
I'm sure you're going to say she's prettier, just like everyone else does.
That's rude, even for you!
You're laughing at me?!
No, that's not it.
That's mean!
Ow!
Don't throw rocks!
I wasn't laughing at you!
Stop it!
See, I had a talented big brother, too.
I was compared to him all the time.
And there really was a world of difference between us.
Unfortunately, I was in the lesser world...
When we were children, Onee-sama was popular.
I can't imagine that at all.
Everyone would flock to her...
Everyone avoids her, you know.
And she was kind to everyone.
She's cross with everyone.
Make your answer brief.
Fire
Are you Master's enemy?
Fire
Nadeshiko!
Did you do this, Ten-nii?
Yes.
Nadeshiko?
I dissected her.
Why?!
Because it was necessary.
What the hell for?!
To build a god.
I didn't expect to meet you here,
Magnus-san.
You're Raishin Akabane-kun, yes?
Headmaster!
I apologise for startling you.
Magnus-kun is my bodyguard.
Since we're all in the same boat, let's all wait here to be rescued.
Raishin-kun.
I expect you to behave.
Understood?
Master, shall I break through the ceiling and call for help?
No.
Don't interfere.
Protect the headmaster.
Yes, Master.
As you wish.
Raishin-san!
Sorry.
I got a little pissed off.
Is something wrong?
He's...
...my little sister's and my enemy.
I came to this academy to kill him.
Don't worry.
I won't do it right now.
Don't tell anyone about this.
Even Charl doesn't know.
Why tell me, of all people?
Guess I just feel like I know you.
Um... I'm not really a student here!
You-
What do you mean?
I only-
Sacred Blaze.
You look lonely without Second Last around.
How may I help you?
I have a proposal for you.
There's a man I'd like you to guard.
Are you saying I owe you a favour?
If this goes well, I'll reward you.
With the thing you so desperately want.
De Organum?!
That's a nasty joke.
Nectar keeps it under lock and-
I'm not giving it to you.
There's talk of making a copy in the near future.
So I'm looking for a trustworthy assistant to do it.
You're a cunning woman.
Capture him, Firefly.
Yes, Master.
Humans do not move like that.
But I don't sense a puppeteer anywhere.
One of the rebels after me, I assume.
No.
He tried to kill me.
There they are!
Are you all right, Headmaster?
Ah, Avril-kun.
Safe and sound, as you see.
What a shame.
Guards, take the brats up.
Raishin!
Yaya, stop-
Yaya was worried!
Yaya was so worried...
Sorry.
Turn off the waterworks, okay?
I won't die that easily.
Raishin...
Yaya was worried you'd sleep with that vixen!
Try worrying about my life once in a while.
But...!
Take off your underpants!
I refuse.
Fine, just pull out what's inside, then!
That's the same thing, moron!
Oh, why won't you ever make love to Yaya?!
Whoa, hold it!
Why are you stripping?!
You really hate Yaya after all...
I don't hate you, okay?
So get dressed!
Not even a reaction...
Where did you just look?
Get dressed right now!
Raishin doesn't love Yaya!
Hey! Stop it!
You'll break the floor!
You're the last person I wanted to tell this, but I have a fiancée!
Raishin has a... fiancée?
Lies!
You've been with Yaya for two years, and you've never said a thing!
I never planned on telling you.
And, well... I was scared.
Because you didn't want to shatter our relationship?
No, I was afraid you'd shatter my body.
How could you... trick Yaya for so long...
H-Hear me out.
I-I'm... not... marrying her!
Not marrying her?
Why not?
It's something our parents arranged for us,
and besides, the Akabane family's in ruins.
Then-
But it's not officially cancelled yet!
So obviously I can't see other women.
Damn.
You're so straight-laced.
I heard that!
Raishin has a fiancée...
T-Tyrant Rex!
Our opponent didn't come.
Yeah.
Number 87's avoided us two days in a row.
And number 86 didn't come tonight, either.
Are they working together?
Dunno.
But it looks like things are going to get complicated.
Are we going home?
Nope, we're going fishing for man-eating sharks.
Well, look at this.
Things have become quite interesting.
Second Last kidnapped Henriette.
How does it feel to be outwitted by the man you took for a fool?
How quickly you shift.
Opening your legs for that Oriental ape so soon after opening them for Felix?
Don't be daft!
You surprise me.
Don't tell me you're untouched?
Shall I toss you naked into a den of rogues?
No, it might be more fun to toss your sister in!
If you do anything to Henri, you'll be the last of your family line-
Pardon my presumption.
Would you get Henriette back for me?
Certainly.
And Second Last?
You can kill him.
Let's give his head to that harlot as a present.
Vulgar in the extreme, but if you wish it, young master...
What are you planning?
Why use us?!
That's simple.
It's fun!
And tormenting you will give Felix satisfaction, won't it?
We're cousins and dear friends, you know!
You're not Cedric!
You're disguising yourself with magic, aren't you?!
Who are you?
I'm a shadow.
A formless shadow.
No!
I've been kidnapped by a barbaric man to be worked over!
Stop making me sound evil!
No!
I'm trying to help you!
Someone help!
You said you were afraid to die.
You don't want to die, but you have to, right?
I'm sure Charl's being threatened:
"Kill the headmaster if you want Henri to live".
It's hopeless!
I kept running away, but they brought me back!
I kept trying to die, but people kept stopping me!
It's impossible to get away without them seeing me!
I don't plan to try.
What?
They're bad guys.
If I steal their hostage...
Naturally, they'll take the bait.
Since you're a talented hunting dog, that means I don't have to wait.
My master must have a talented butler, after all.
I suppose a little roughing up wouldn't make a butler confess, eh?
If not, what will you do?
Anything that'll get me answers.
And then I'll drag your depraved master out into the light.
Depraved?
Someone in their right mind wouldn't come up with this.
True, he's a thoroughly warped individual who would rather scheme than breathe.
The Granvilles are surely doomed.
Yes, quite the talented butler.
I didn't expect you to tell me your boss's name.
Oh, I'm not without my failings.
If I had to name one of my flaws,
it'd be that I'm a bit short-tempered.
Yaya, we're going to beat this guy to a pulp and save Charl and Henri.
Let's go!
Yes!
