I'm guessing we've only got one chance to stop them, but we'll have to wait for

it. All of them.

They're all Okiagari.

Oh, and I'm quitting the clinic as well.

Not quite yet.

I want the rest of the village to die first.

I thought Haimi from the funeral home was supposed to be taking care of the

corpses now.

They've gotten too full already. All the extra bodies are sent off to the

mountain huts.

That sounds like a pain.

It's not a big deal. I manage five huts, but all I really have to do is go

around and check on them every once in a while.

If they rise up after a few days, I send them off to Yamaiti.

If they start to decompose, I bury them. It's really just as simple as that.

Gotcha.

It's good to have a job. A man needs purpose in his life, you know?

Thank you

for

watching!

Thank you

for

watching!

Let's see me

I killed off a Yoki Agari.

Steve, I'm a dependable father.

Following renovations, the Atelier is now open for business.

We'll have a whole new section on Yoki Agari.

John, Gross, you name it.

Mr. Yuki, would you mind if I came in?

The showroom is still open.

So see you soon.

Well, what do you want?

I wish you'd informed me that you'd risen up. I didn't realize I had to.

not a rule, but it would have been helpful.

Well, that aside, tell me what you know about Jinro.

That's what you and I are now, isn't it?

You're as sharp as I thought you were.

Yes, we're a subset of Shiki.

Including you, I've only known four Jinro like us.

We're relatively rare.

Suniko was the one who originally came up with the term, Genro.

What else do you know about our kind?

You've seen us accompanied by werewolves in the movies, right?

Can't say I have. I never really watched that sort of movie.

You seem bored with our chat.

Maybe you'll be interested to hear about your little friend, Akira.

I haven't seen him around much these days. I wonder what happened.

I don't have a clue.

You haven't been feeding, have you?

Kinro breathe and have a pulse.

They can walk around in the sunlight, and they can survive on normal human

They're stronger than regular Shiki, and their senses are twice as acute as any

human.

However, if they don't suck blood, they lose some of the ability.

What'll it be?

I can easily kill you right now.

Personally, I'd be more than happy to see you buried underground permanently.

But Suniko disagrees. She wants the number of our kind to grow.

I'll give you a little more time to think it over.

Accept what you've become.

Make the right decision and join us.

Or our next visit won't be so cordial.

The guy from the liquor store.

I think he's gone a little crazy now that he's out from underneath his

thumb. Says he's finally free now.

And that he's found his true calling in killing people.

He's still just a newbie. What's he thinking running around like some

idiot? We should tell Yoshi he needs to rein him in.

You've got whining down to an art form, don't you?

Hey!

Quit talking to me like that!

Who do you think you are?

It's fantastic!

Jeez,

Chizuru lets Atsushi do whatever he wants to.

She's getting carried away.

So why doesn't Sunako do something?

She's just more lenient with Chizuru.

Why's that?

Those two have a bond. It's like they're mother and child.

With Chizuru playing the child.

Hey, Yoshi, how are you?

You should know, Suniko thinks highly of you, too.

Huh? Yep, you're a favorite.

Anyway, that's not why I asked you to come and patrol the East Mountains with

me.

I heard some movement in here, so I thought you might be up.

It's you.

That's right.

Speech won't work the same.

So you guys are like me? You've risen up too?

That's nice.

It's always easier when we don't have to explain it to them.

I was right.

I remember how everything happened toward the end.

It was hyperventilating, so I looked for a bag to help me breathe more

regularly.

There was nothing nearby for me to use, so I stumbled out of bed to look

somewhere else.

That's when I lost consciousness.

I can't remember anything else.

I must have died shortly after that.

Sounds about right.

Anyway, since you already know what happened, it simplifies things.

Here, show her the basics and see that she gets fed, okay?

Why me? I have a feeling some others will rise tonight, so I'm going to be

Now, don't you peek while she's changing.

Have fun.

Um, all right.

Just change into these, okay?

I'll be outside.

No, I don't want them.

The dead don't really need clothing. My burial robe is enough.

And I will not be having any meals. I have no intention of killing anyone.

Everyone says that same thing at first, but then the hunger comes and soon they

have no choice but to attack.

The starvation is too severe.

I'm sure the rest of my family is dead by now, too.

The last time I saw them, my mother and sister had that look in their eyes.

I'm going to hold out for as long as I can.

I'd rather starve than end up hating myself.

I may be dead, but surely I can still choose that much, can't I?

Tattoo! Tattoo!

Takako died last night!

No one will die in this city.

Thank you.

It must have been a lot of work for you to rewrite so many charts.

No, not really. As long as I was following your specific instructions, at

I moved through every task you set like a man possessed.

Sunika will be pleased to see these.

She rewards those who prove their usefulness.

Then I'll try to remain useful so she'll keep me alive.

Is that a festival?

Uh -huh. It's the Kagura dance.

I can't wait until everyone becomes Sheiky.

I'll finally be able to walk around freely.

I'll go shopping and chat with my friends.

A little like playing house, huh?

That's what you guys want, to play house? Kind of. A safe base is what

really after. Some place where we don't have to hide who we truly are.

Just a little longer. Soon enough, it will all be ours.

You sound sure that it'll go smoothly.

Suniko says the final stage will be the most difficult.

But we've come this far, so I figure we're golden.

You've been our biggest threat through all of this, but now you're no longer

enemy.

You've seen to that, huh?

Chizuru.

Why don't we go out?

Huh?

As in a date, Doctor?

I don't have too long to live, right?

I'd at least like to have some fun before I die. So come with me.

You seemed interested in the Kagura Festival, didn't you?

Well, I am.

But I can't go. You know that. If you don't get too close, you'll be okay.

Besides, if you go out in public, you could dispel the villagers' suspicions

about you.

You really think so?

Yeah.

Maybe you're right. Going out to a festival sounds like a lot more fun than

hiding inside all night.

Good. Now, one more thing.

What?

People would find it strange if we were seen out together.

So here's the story. You were peeling a potato, but the knife slipped and you

cut your hand.

Really? Yes.

You cut the base of your thumb and you came to me to be treated.

Well, that's quite an elaborate story.

We want it to be believable, don't we?

It is. I was always a clumsy cook.

But that was ages ago now.

Ages? How many years are we talking?

It isn't polite to ask a woman her age.

So, did you ever get married? Any children?

No children.

My husband wasn't with me for very long, and he went off to war before we could

have any kids.

He died in a battle in the south.

You look happy.

It's almost as if you're staring at a diamond ring on your hand instead of a

bandage. You know, that is almost what it feels like. It's strange, though.

nostalgia for my days as a human. And here I believed I was long since past

thinking about that stage of my life.

Now, let's go out.

Eager to show off your new bandage? Yes, right. A snow -white bandage wrapped

around my delicate hands.

Kazuko, how are you doing?

Good evening.

Oh, and a good evening to you as well.

Meet Chizuru Kirishiki, the mistress of Kanemasa.

Oh, nice to meet you.

She asked what the celebration was all about, and I offered to show her. Ah,

this is the Kagura Festival.

I'm surprised someone from outside the village would be interested.

Oh, but I've never gotten to see a Kagura dance up close before. I grew up

city, so I missed out on all kinds of traditional festivals and events.

My hand! It's nothing but how sweet of you to notice.

Silly me, I was peeling a potato and my knife just slipped.

Ah, yes, that happens to me all the time.

I'm so clumsy, always injuring myself. My daughter says that you can't tell if

I'm cooking or being cooked.

Isn't that just so embarrassing?

No.

I heard that you have some sort of serious illness.

Well, I've been doing better lately. I have to admit, though, the lovely summer

weather here did make it a bit difficult.

Oh?

It's a condition called photodermatosis.

It can be tough. I'm sorry to hear that. It's not so bad. All I have to do is

stay inside and I'll be fine.

But when it's so nice outside, sometimes I just can't help myself, you know?

Hey, now.

That's how you end up stuck in bed recuperating.

Yeah.

Well, I hope you had some fun tonight.

There sure are plenty of people out tonight, even though it's pretty late.

I'm not surprised. I wish I could go, too.

Did you know Chizuru was there?

Huh? She was walking around with the doctor like they were a couple or

something.

It sure seemed like they were having a good time.

I'm so glad that we decided to come. It was like they finally saw there was

nothing to be worked up about.

Don't you want to go?

I want to go, but I can't.

I'm too scared.

I'm already trembling.

Would going really harm you?

I don't think so, but... Here, why don't you hold mine?

Isn't this a bit scandalous?

Who cares?

Fine.

Then I'll go as far in as I can.

But don't think you can force me.

Of course not. I'm utterly powerless to disobey your orders, remember?

Indeed, so you are.

Good to see you.

And I presume this is Mrs. Kirishiki you brought along with you?

Yes. She says she's never seen a Kagura dance before.

Unfortunately, it seems she's not feeling well.

Would you like to lean?

No, I'll be okay for a little bit.

All right, then.

Munahide, it's pretty busy. If you don't mind walking along with us, maybe you

could help buffer her from the crowd?

Sure, let's go.

Oh, look, the doctor's here. And the woman from Kane Masa's with him.

Hi there, doctor. This year's dance is a bit different from how we usually do

it. I hope you'll stay to watch.

Everyone, Dr. Ozaki's here.

What's wrong?

I'm going.

Hold on.

I don't feel well.

It'll be even harder getting out of here, and you're in no shape to go

Rest at the shrine office a bit.

No, I'm going home.

Doctor, that's an order.

Oh, well.

Mr. Chimichu, could you give me a hand?

What's the matter?

She says she's not feeling very well.

I want to take her to the shrine office to rest.

What? Of course.

Come here, man.

What are you doing?

What the?

Her skin's freezing.

Did you hear me? I said I want to go home right now. She's cold and showing

symptoms of bradycardia. Please hurry.

What's wrong with you? Can't you hear me? Doctor!

Hey, I'm talking to you!

What's going on here? She's losing it. What's happening to her?

It seems she's scared of the shrine for some reason.

I know that smell.

Between the time Megumi collapsed and the time she died, her room was filled

with the scent of a woman's perfume.

It's the same scent.

Capture her.

She's Okiagari.

She's the one who killed your daughter.

What?

Quick, her neck. Check her pulse. Perhaps we should call an ambulance for

No!

Nothing.

It's true.

She's Okiogari.

This woman killed my Megumi!

It's her fault I lost my daughter!

That's just your grief talking. No, it isn't. Check for yourself. She has no

pulse.

I'll be your right.

And her skin feels like ice.

Impossible.

They're telling the truth. I can't hear her heartbeat. My husband is right.

She isn't breathing either.

No way.

So what the hell is...

I'm kindly getting out of our way, old man.

I can't!

What in the hell do you think you're doing?

I can't fight the old man!

Isn't that Okubo's son?

He died the other day.

Inoki, I got him. He came here to rescue one of his own.

Thank you for watching.

Hello.

Father from me.

So now I should curse the Shiki with every breath in my body.

But there is no anger in my heart.

Instead, I feel something I can only describe as pity.

I think of Sunako and the sorrow she must feel for killing.

My own feelings are setting me apart from the village.
