In this world which will someday fall to ruin...

...dreams and hopes don't matter at all.

Because you're asleep within your heart...

...you will never wake.

But feel with those hands the future that can't be changed.

Burning for your life!

Even if I sacrifice this life that will someday burn out...

For the perfect dream!

Drowning in my dream!

Even if I drown, a dream is only but a dream.

You are the starlight.

Episode 5 A Destiny

This is the best!

It just has to be Petit Rondo's Cookies & Cream!

This was really worth the 30-minute wait!

Here!

That's right...

It's a shame.

It'd be wonderful if you could eat this with me, Inuki...

Don't worry, Inuki.

Even if you don't know how Petit Rondo tastes...

...I still love you, Inuki!

Um...

If you're bored, how about some tea with me?

I know a good place.

A shop that has great cakes.

- Really? - I'm sure you'd really like it.

Want to try it out?

I want to ask you one thing.

What?

Can you see him?

"Him"?

Then it's all right.

See ya!

H-Hey, what are you talking about?

Don't make fun of me!

Where are you going?

A little trip to the Diet Building.

The Diet Building?

For what?

To talk a bit about the end of the world.

Let's go, Inuki.

It's all right.

I make it a point not to date anyone who can't see you.

Come on, go get it!

All right. Well done.

Hey, wait!

There really isn't anyone that can see you after all.

Grandma, everyone calls me a liar.

Everyone tells me they can't see Inuki.

Inuki is right here, too!

Everyone says I'm lying...

Inuki really does exist.

Right by your side.

It's just that everyone else can't see him.

Why?

Why can't they see him?

Why am I the only one who can see him?

That's because Inuki is a dog born just for you...

...who will spend his entire life at your side.

Don't the other kids have ones like him?

No, they don't.

That is a power that only you have.

I don't want power like that!

I want you to make Inuki so that everyone else can see him, too!

I can't do that.

For with that power of yours, you will become one of the stars...

...who will determine the fate of this world.

But maybe the ones I meet in the Diet Building...

...will be able to see you.

That's what Grandma said.

If that's the case, neither you nor I will continue to feel lonely.

I really hope others will be able to pet you, Inuki.

Huh?

Mama!

W-What happened?

Are you all right? No injuries?

What the hell's going on?

Great job, Inuki.

Well, let's go.

Sure.

Great dog.

Good job.

Good dog.

That's a good dog.

A strange dog, but a good dog.

H-Hey...

Is something wrong, little lady?

Did I do something bad?

Sorry.

I apologize. It's nothing.

I see...

Are you all right?

Yes...

Well, I'll be going now.

There really was someone, Inuki.

Someone who could really see you...

You're still debating?

If it's a good thing for Kamui and me to meet the princess or not?

It's all right. It'll be all right.

The princess should be fully aware that we're headed her way.

That's 'cause she's the dreaming princess...

...who's controlled all of Japan's political affairs from the shadows.

I will say this first.

Princess Hinoto has a handicapped body.

She cannot see, hear, speak, or walk.

Please make sure to not be rude to her.

I see.

Then how do you talk to her?

If you talk to her normally, she will answer.

Within your heart.

I see...

Then that's fine.

Princess Hinoto.

Please, do come in.

I have been waiting for you.

Kamui.

And the visitor from Kouya.

Now, come closer.

You're right.

It looks like she's speaking normally.

I apologize for my lack of manners earlier.

So it was you.

The one who was watching me.

What, this isn't the first time?

No.

I wished to know what Kamui looked like...

...and used a vision spell.

However, Kamui noticed my using the spell.

Nothing less from Kamui.

So you're still alive?

Come on, calm and peaceful here...

All right?

The star from Kouya.

Thank you for bringing Kamui here.

I have been eagerly awaiting the day that I would get to meet you.

Well, you make me blush if you say that, Princess.

I think I'm a bit lucky myself to meet the dreaming princess.

I mean, that stubborn old stargazer really was fond of you.

I think I like you, too.

Besides, you look much younger than your actual age.

I mean it.

Well, Kamui.

You have a lot of things you want to know.

Have the princess tell you.

Do you know...

...what I really am?

Tell me.

Now, give me your hand.

Rest assured.

If something happens to you...

...I'll physically jump in and do something.

That's my destiny.

I will show you.

About the Earth...

About the future...

And Kamui...

...about yourself.

This land, Tokyo, is the key to supporting the Earth.

There are many barriers created artificially by man in this area.

The Yamanote Line...

...a "thread barrier" drawn in the shape of Buddha's hand...

...with the Imperial Palace in its center, to protect Tokyo.

Shinjuku's skyscrapers, a group of giant barrier stones.

And other foundations that support an unstable ground.

The powers of these barriers...

...have been called the Dragons of Heaven.

And these are the Dragons of Earth...

the power to break these barriers and destroy the world.

The ones who lead those powers are called the Seven Angels.

And only the Seven Seals can stop them...

...and protect the Dragons of Heaven.

The Dragons of Heaven, the Seven Seals...

...and the Dragons of Earth, the Seven Angels' battle...

That is the battle for the End of the World.

If the Dragons of Earth defeat the Dragons of Heaven...

...the world will be destroyed.

This is the future that I saw.

Kamui...

You can change this future.

Guide the Seven Seals and save us from this future.

Me?

You should already have realized those powers.

The ones that hold the key to the end of this world.

That is why your mother took you as a young child and left Tokyo.

To await your growth.

And to prevent the catastrophes that will now fall upon you...

...she passed away as your Shadow Sacrifice.

I understand how hard it must be.

However, you cannot waste your mother's will.

That is hidden within your name.

Kamui.

"The one who carries out the majesty of God."

It means you will carry out...

...the power and will of God and save this world.

And...

..."the one who hunts the majesty of God."

Don't you go off on your own like that, my sister Hinoto.

And it's awfully unfair not telling him crucial facts.

Who are you?

Nice to meet you, Kamui.

I am Kanoe.

Younger sister to Hinoto.

I'm not a dreamseer, but I can enter other people's dreams.

I watch the dreams that my sister sees.

Stop it, Kanoe!

Get out of my dream!

Tell me.

There are two meanings for the name "Kamui."

"The one who hunts the majesty of God."

In other words, the one who hunts those given God's power...

...and destroys the world.

So you do have the potential to be a Dragon of Heaven...

...but you could also be a Dragon of Earth.

What do you mean by that?

You have two futures.

One as a Dragon of Heaven, the other as a Dragon of Earth.

Even Hinoto, who has not once predicted the future incorrectly...

...could not determine your future.

That dream was one that worked better for her.

Don't you want to see the other future?

Kanoe!

The other future?

Yes...

Wait!

Kamui!

Get a grip, Kamui!

Are you all right, Kamui?

- Princess... - Princess!

Why did you interrupt my conversation with that woman?

Were you going to trick me?

I-It's not that...

Stop it! Let go of Princess Hinoto!

You...

...shut up!

Hold on a sec.

There are no lies in the dream I showed you.

That is the truth.

But the other dream that Kanoe mentioned also exists.

Why are there two futures?

Because you are Kamui.

If you choose the Dragons of Earth, the world will be destroyed.

And if you choose the Dragons of Heaven, the world will be saved.

It is all because you will choose which future will take place.

I'll decide the future?

Yes.

You're saying that I'll decide the future?

Ridiculous.

I don't care about the future.

I have no interest in saving this world.

Besides, I don't fully trust you, either!

If I have enough power to decide the future...

...why didn't you hurry up and give me the Divine Sword?

If I had the Divine Sword in hand...

...the shrinemaster of Togakushi Shrine wouldn't be where he is!

Am I wrong?

Answer me!

I don't approve...

I will never approve of you as "Kamui"!

What was that?

I am not one of the Seven Seals...

...unlike Lady Arashi or the one from Kouya.

I am only given the duty of protecting Princess Hinoto.

However, even from my eyes...

...you do not possess a personality fit to be called "Kamui."

You are rotten!

So what?

This time, I'll make sure to finish you off.

Calm down, Kamui!

Stop it!

Shut up.

I don't like each and every one of you!

W-What is that?

A dog spirit.

It appears...

...a Dragon of Heaven, another of the Seven Seals, has arrived.

Excuse me!

I'm Yuzuriha Nekoi of Mitsumine Shrine!

I'm 14 years old!

Nice to meet you!

Best regards for the future!

I'm Yuzuriha Nekoi!

This is amazing!

All of these people can see you too, Inuki!

Well, I was all right up till the Diet Building.

I didn't know where I should enter, so I had Inuki guide me.

Hello!

You must be Ms. Hinoto!

Yes.

Here!

People get cranky when they're hungry.

Oh? It's delicious...

Missie, don't worry about it.

Kamui's just in a slightly foul mood.

What?

This is the Kamui?

I see...

I'm surprised!

I thought "Kamui" would be more...

Missie...

Looks like someone was on your tail.

What?

It's an illusion created by someone.

A rather tense moment as soon as we arrive, huh, Inuki?

It looks like we'll be busy, just like Grandma said.

The doings of an Angel, huh?

Things were ominous, so this is perfect.

Amazing!

Can you tell me your name?

Arashi Kishu.

I'm amazed a sword came out of your hand!

Where is it usually hidden?

The missie from Ise and me are still platonic so I'm not sure...

Whoa!

On kakaka bienmai sowaka...

On kakaka bienmai sowaka!

Pretty good!

You must practice Mikkyou!

I'm Sorata Arisugawa from Kouya.

You can call me Sora.

Inuki!

You're pretty useful yourself, missie.

If I recall correctly, Mitsumine Shrine's...

...name comes from a priest at Shougoin,

the Lord of Mitsumine.

The one who worships the wolf as his accompaniment.

And that's why a dog spirit.

Yup, I'm surprised you know so much!

Cherry petals?

Sakurazukamori?

So one of the Seven Angels is...

...Sakurazukamori?

Kamui!

Kamui, please wait!

I have nothing more to say.

It was my mistake for not handing you the Divine Sword.

Please forgive me...

And please become a Dragon of Heaven. Save this world...

Kamui...

Princess, you can't do anything about it.

He's just a kid.

Besides, nobody'd be able to stand it...

...if they were suddenly handed the world.

Even I think so, and I'm one of the Seven Seals.

You all think the same, right?

Yes, I feel the same way!

Yeah.

Feeling confused after finding out so many things can't be helped.

But it'll be all right.

Kamui still has things he wants to protect.

Kamui...

go to Tokyo...

your destiny awaits...

Not asking for the real reason behind the sorrow...

...I embraced you tightly.

The moonlight shone upon you...

...and all I did was intensify my love.

I'm so lonely that I can't sleep.

The more I love, the tougher it gets for me.

That's why I can become kind and strong.

Even sorrow will turn into memories.

I want to believe in it.

Because I can't yield my feelings for you to anyone.
