That's right, boy.

I do. I'm not going there!

Thank you for showing Ritsuko so much kindness.

They're collaborators!

I can't believe you still have energy, Chizuko. It sure must be nice to be

young. I'm not so young.

Just used to delivering huge bags of rice to help out the family business.

That's all.

I'm basically middle -aged. Oh, goodness, don't say that.

If you're middle -aged, what does that make us?

Well, I'm not a day over 29.

Nice try.

Take a look at this. What if that is still moving?

Oh, I'll take care of it.

Tea break, anyone?

Oh, I'm starving.

I can't eat a few dozen of beef, baby.

Whoops.

Thank you for watching!

It so's touched me.

The villagers will charge in here as soon as morning comes. I know they will.

And that'll be the end of us.

You should get some rest.

I'll make sure you're able to escape.

No!

I'll rest with all this happening.

I'll go to sleep and never see either of you again.

Why don't you understand that?

We're gonna be just fine. I know.

We met. I understand myself much better because of our friendship.

I hope you understand.

Yes. If that's true, tell me, why were you so desperate to kill yourself?

Because I felt such despair.

That's not it.

Well, not all of it, anyway.

No, there's more.

Is there?

The younger brother had to die because of the older brother's despair.

The younger brother was the elder's link to the outside world. Through him, the

older brother was connected to others, as well as to the darkest parts of

himself.

When he faced his holodite sibling, he explained that he had not murdered him

out of hatred.

His brother replied that he knew.

That was the first time the Shiki spoke.

By killing me, you set me free from that prison.

That's how I saw the land in which we lived, a prison controlled by God.

In order that I might curry his favor, I played the part of a good man, forever

doing what was right.

And so I lived a repressed life, hiding my true self.

I grew to hate it.

I saw no other choice but to live that way.

So I stayed in my prison and did what I was told, like a good boy.

And all that time I envied you. You were my total opposite. You were free.

So that's why he followed.

The younger brother was seeking his opposite.

Exactly. He realized that together they could be whole. They needed one another.

But why did the older brother lose hope?

So thank you.

I was waiting such a long time for you to come.

The older brother couldn't stare until his sibling disappeared.

It was not yet time for the Shiki to return to their graves.

But no matter where he looked, he could find no sign of his brother.

He called out for his brother by name for the first time since his death.

Then he realized the name he called was his own.

He'd never had a brother.

He was indeed a killer, but he was also the one who was killed.

The younger brother was born of his own despair, and in order to rid himself of

that despair, he killed his brother.

And in doing so, he killed a part of himself.

Did he feel the same despair?

Was the temple his prison?

It's not safe here either.

I have to keep going. I can't fall asleep here.

I can't fall asleep.

I'll be killed like all the others she keep.

Stabbed in the heart with a stake.

That won't happen to me.

She means ill.

I bet the villagers have gotten to her too.

If only she'd stayed with me, I would have saved her.

This isn't fair. What I ever do to deserve that?

Oh, yeah.

Who's there?

It's me.

It's my soul.

Please help me, or else I'm going to die.

Just let me come inside.

You're the only one who can help me, sis.

Your family.

Please just open the door.

I'll behave myself, I swear.

I was always a good kid. I won't attack anyone, I promise.

I'd never attack you, ever. You have my word.

I swear. You know I keep my promises.

Please, sis, I'm begging you.

Okay. Thank you.

Your family.

Come inside, Masao.

Well, it is almost sunrise.

Yeah. Maybe they've already gone into hiding somewhere.

Dickie!

Attack all of those who are trying to exterminate us.

Young or old, it doesn't matter. Get everyone.

You'll do it because we told you to.

You two head back to the base.

It is only a matter of time before they suspect Yamaiti.

Close it securely.

I don't want them getting through easily.

But what about you?

I'm Jinro, remember?

I'll be fine. I'm going to keep taking these guys out.

Daytime should make things easier since they let their guard down.

Now move quickly. Daylight's coming.

As for you, head down to the shrine and kill the doctor. Got it?

Take this. All you have to do is point and shoot.

Get as close to him as you can.

Heishiro, what are you doing?

I was just waiting.

Waiting?

For a genro like you to pass my way.

I could go back to the village.

Well, what do we do now?

There's no more room to bury him. I'm sure the doctor will come up with

something. I know this. We can't take them out of the village. That's for

Where's the doctor?

He said he's checking out the hellhole. The hellhole?

Apparently, it's behind the main crime.

Really? I've never heard of it.

Well, he says it's there.

We could drop the bodies in here.

It's pretty much a ready -made grave, right?

Yeah, that would save us a lot of time on digging.

Please make sure everyone else knows.

Toshio!

Yasuo is here to see you. Where'd she come from?

Yasuo, what happened?

A pack of wild dogs.

I fell while they were chasing me.

But even so, I'm still counting myself very lucky.

And how's that lucky?

I escaped from Yamaiti.

Yamaiti? They took me there.

The Okiagari.

There were just so many of them, I couldn't... What? How many? It didn't

like their home.

I'm not sure.

I... It's okay.

Thank you.

Get everyone. Now! Please wait.

Doctor!

What is this happening? I see now. They started with the Yamaiti residents so

they could isolate the area for themselves.

Let's go!

There should be a power shovel at the Yasumori place. Someone go and get it!

You're one of them?

Yes, Mr.

Okawa.

I can... I can die at last. I can die.

Thank goodness.

And thank you, Mr.

Okawa.

Look, Doctor.

I know them. That's Muto's son and Ritsuko. I think she was one of your

I can't hammer a stake into my own son's heart.

There's no way.

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

Please, just leave me alone.

If my son committed a sin, it's my responsibility to see that he's

I can't do this.

Martha, there are still two Kirishikis left.

Until we take care of them, we can't stop.

But maybe they already fled the village.

We have some watchmen guarding the road out of the village. We closed the

national road, too. I just don't see how they could escape without us noticing.

But we've already checked all the houses in Yamaiti.

Where else could they be?

Like I said, they must have escaped.

Wait, I've got an idea.

Well, what is it?

The Kirishiki's house.

But we already checked it. I just remembered something. When they were

the foundation for the house, the builders loaded and carried away more

dozen truckloads of dirt.

That must be it. It was built to include a basement.

A hiding spot.

They figured it out.

It isn't safe here anymore.

We need to leave.

On the way?

The villagers know where we are.

But the roads out of the village are all shut down.

I know of another way out of here.

This won't shield the light perfectly. You'll need to keep it in the dark as

much as possible.

Right.

Mr. Muroi.

I realize that I've been asking a lot of favors of you lately, but... Take care

of her.

And you?

I'll act as a decoy.

May I ask you something?

Yeah, what is it?

Why do you serve Sunako instead of the other way around?

From what I know, Jinro's seem more powerful than ordinary Shiki.

You think Jinro is superior?

If Chizuru were still alive, she'd be furious with you.

I wonder how Sunako would react for that matter.

It doesn't have anything to do with our relative strength.

For me, at least, it's more of a personal matter.

I've always seen Sunako as a symbol of survival.

The world is collapsing constantly.

Everything must end.

But she confronts the collapse and fights against it.

I find that fascinating.

Fascinating and beautiful.

And that's it?

In the end, I guess that's enough, isn't it?

Yeah.

Can you see to the injured?

Yeah. If you can move, come with me.

The temple?

It's so insane.

Split up and search ahead.

I thought it was impossible for them to enter the temple.

He just left and didn't come back.

We don't know what happened to him.

Didn't come back? That doesn't make sense. You didn't see him come in just

No, I already told you.

What do you suggest? Don't play dumb.

He's here. We follow him in. Mr. Morrow, we need to search the house. What do

you mean? Why?

Tell me where you're hiring him now.

Of all people, how could David... Enough already.

Hey! Let's get out of here.

The junior monk escaped into the mount. They're going up after him now.

Okay.

We know he's injured. Follow the blood trail.

simply not to starve to death. Is that truly such a sin?

Does it warrant a stake through the heart?

Humans are willing to take other lives to preserve their own.

What is acceptable for humans is not sanctioned for Shiki.

Where is the fairness in that?

They can't win.

Their life means murder.

Their very existence is a sin that humanity can't bear.

But I remain unsure.

Their sins are ours.
