I'm so sleepy. Are we home yet?

Not yet.

We're late because you were greedy and picked too many chestnuts.

I couldn't help it. I have a big household.

I have to take care of everyone,

because I can't count on my idiot of a mother.

Yeah, yeah.

Why are you getting scared? It's only a bird.

A bird?

Is this feather...

from the blue bird?

Being Discovered, Blue Bird

Ikuto?

Good morning, Ikuto.

Good morning.

You're really remarkable. You practice your sword skills every day.

It's been a habit of mine since childhood.

I don't feel right if I fail to practice.

If I'm able to go back one day,

there's a person I want to defeat very much.

What's wrong?

Your stance is not firm enough.

It's nothing.

I'll go to the river and wash my face.

Okay.

Ikuto.

Yeah?

It'd be good if you could go home soon.

Slowpoke.

I'm really selfish.

I actually want him to stay here forever.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Sharp Pain

But I guess I used too much strength. O-Ow.

Hurry, hurry!

Good morning, Yukino-chan.

Suzu-nee!

Where are you going this early?

Hey, hey, listen, listen! This is big news!

I saw it, at the border between the south and the west.

I saw it, I saw it! I saw it!

What did you see?

A bird, a blue bird!

Oh, really?!

Here's the proof.

When I was picking chestnuts in the Southern Forest,

I caught a glimpse of it on my way back.

This is a bird that no one's ever seen with their own eyes: the legendary blue bird.

That's amazing!

But is this the real one?

There are many birds with blue feathers around.

It could even be a prank by Ayane.

There's no mistake about it.

Even I, the animal professor, have never seen it before.

This must be real!

I see.

The bird that has such beautiful feathers...

I wonder what it looks like.

I really want to meet it and be friends with it.

You're right.

Right? So you should also help search for it.

What, now?

Yeah. Let's go.

But I have to tell Ikuto first.

Usa-Usa, go and bring Ikuto over.

Leave it to me.

Come on. Let's get going.

But I have to gather firewood today.

It's okay.

Kuma-Kuma.

Let's hurry.

The blue bird!

Huh? Suzu went to search for a blue bird?

Yeah.

Here's your tea.

Thanks.

The imaginary blue bird, huh?

So this island also has UMAs.

UMA?

Unidentified Mysterious Animals.

That means new species which haven't been identified yet.

Actually for me, you guys are all UMAs as well.

But then, Ikuto-kun,

aren't you skeptical about things that haven't been confirmed?

UMA and supernatural phenomenon are different things.

Because UMA can be explained.

I see.

By the way, it's said you'll be blessed if you find the blue bird.

That's just a myth.

I'm here to bring Iku-Iku over.

I'll go over later.

I have to gather firewood today.

I guess Suzu couldn't help it.

She actually skipped duty.

Sorry.

It's all because Yuki-Yuki got excited and dragged her away by force.

I'll help gather firewood.

Thanks. That will be a great help.

I guess Ikuto must be alone, gathering firewood.

Okay, stop.

Huh?

This is it.

This is where I saw the blue bird.

Let's hurry up and search.

How are we going to find it?

It'd be a lot easier if Taka-Taka and Fuku-Fuku were here.

They went with Mom to the hot spring in the mountains yesterday.

When I got home, I found a note saying, "We went to the hot spring."

Also saying, "I like to lie around in bed and drink wine in the morning."

She's such a useless person.

What parent leaves her daughter home alone?

There, there.

Given what's happened, we'll go find the blue bird and boast all about it.

Inu-Inu!

Use this feather's smell to find it!

Have you found it?

I guess the feather tickled him.

Iku-Iku, how about this?

That can't be used. It's too damp.

It rained yesterday.

Hey, Suzu, do you want to go further?

What am I saying? Suzu didn't come with me.

On that subject,

we've been together ever since I came to this island.

And I've caused Suzu lots of trouble already.

She's always taking care of me.

I don't really help much.

Iku-Iku!

Sorry. I'm coming right over.

It's nowhere to be found.

That's because it's imaginary.

Hey, it's said you'll be blessed if you find the blue bird.

Yeah, I know.

Isn't that a fairytale?

A fairytale?

When I was young, I was always asking Chika-nee to read it to me.

But being blessed only happens in the story.

I know that, of course. I'm not a kid anymore.

That's true.

It was just a fairy tale. I didn't know that.

But being friends with an unidentified animal could be regarded as a blessing.

That's just like you.

Hey, Suzu-nee.

If the blue bird were to give blessings,

what kind of blessing would you think is good?

Um, me?

I hope that everything remains the same.

U-Um, it's not like that.

About that... I hope everyone stays healthy. That would be a blessing.

I smell it.

The smell is strong here.

Could it be the blue bird?

Don't scare it. Close in on it quietly.

Yeah, I got it.

Finally, it's the imaginary blue bird.

Huh?

It's indeed a bird we haven't seen before.

But it's not blue at all.

That's weird.

It's cute!

Wait for me!

Yuki-Yuki!

Wait for me, bird-san!

If you run around recklessly, you'll get lost!

Bird-san, wait for me!

Stay away.

I can just fly.

Wait.

Wait!

It's a crevice!

Suzu?

I'm back.

Sorry for being so late.

There wasn't much good firewood around.

Huh?

Suzu?

Wake up, Suzu-nee!

Ikuto?

Huh? Yukino-chan, good morning.

This isn't the time to say good morning.

You're really relaxed.

That's right. We fell into a crevice.

It's all because Yuki-Yuki went berserk.

Sorry.

It's really quite deep.

Can we climb up there?

Ouch.

Suzu-nee.

Your leg is swollen.

You must've twisted it when you fell.

It looks painful.

It's all right. It's nothing to be worried about.

But I might not be able to climb up in this condition.

I'll try.

Good luck, Kuma-Kuma!

The wall is too fragile.

The wall is more fragile than we thought.

If Ikuto were here, he'd...

That's right. Usa-Usa went to inform Ikuto!

Ikuto will definitely realize that something has happened to us!

He'll come looking for us!

But this is the deepest part of the forest.

If he doesn't see this hole...

It's all right!

Tonkatsu has a great sense of smell.

Ikuto's smart too! They'll definitely be able to find this place!

Definitely!

What?

Yukino and the others aren't at Suzu-chan's house?

Yes, Suzu isn't home yet either.

Don't tell me... something happened to them?

If I'd known this was going to happen,

I would've taken them to the hot spring!

Calm down, Kagami-san.

How do you expect me to calm down?

If anything happens to them...

What "anything"?!

This isn't good.

Her mental state is unstable.

I'll search in the mountains.

Kagami-san, you can ask around in the village.

Yes, understood!

Fuku-Fuku-chan and Ino-Ino-chan,

you guys go and help Ikuto.

This is the place where we saw the blue bird last night!

Suzu! Yukino!

Kuma-Kuma! Inu-Inu!

This isn't good. They're not anywhere nearby.

Don't tell me... something happened to them?

It's all right!

They just lost their way in the forest!

All right, Tonkatsu! It's your turn now!

Use your sense of smell to find Suzu and the others!

Me too!

Try your best!

But Suzu and the others have Inu-Inu with them. His sense of smell is strong too.

They'd still be able to make it back, even if they got lost.

I guess something must've happened.

You've found them?

You're good!

The sky's gotten dark?

Yeah.

Ikuto...

I want to go home.

I'm hungry.

Ah! Right!

Look, everyone! I have cherries with me!

I saved these especially for Ikuto and Tonkatsu.

Let's share them among everyone now!

Here, Kuma-Kuma!

Here, Inu-Inu!

This is delicious!

Here, Yukino-chan!

Thank you!

All right, let's eat!

Ikuto and the others are late.

Where are they looking?

Suzu-nee, you seem so calm.

But I was panicking.

I was trapped in a cave before, remember?

Back then, Ikuto was really calm about it.

I thought that if I behaved like him,

I might be able to come up with some ideas.

You're strong, aren't you?

I'm glad you're with me.

What? It's nothing, actually.

You're so capable and dependable, and you have a good figure too.

When you were my age, you had already started staying by yourself.

I want to become as strong as you.

I'm envious.

It's really...

Delicious.

nothing like that.

It's raining.

Oh, no!

Our scent will fade away!

Damn! This is the worst situation.

Tonkatsu, Ino-Ino, how's the scent?

There isn't any.

Suzu! Yukino!

This isn't working.

The rain is too heavy, so sound can't travel far.

Where are they?

How can I find them?

Suzu... must be frightened now.

Suzu!

Iku-Iku!

Suzu! Yukino!

Kuma-Kuma! Inu-Inu!

Suzu!

Wait.

Suzu!

Ikuto.

Did I just hear someone calling out to me?

A blue bird...

Did you call to me?

Ikuto...

Are you telling me to follow you?

Do you know where Suzu and the others are?

W-Wait a second!

The blue bird... that signals happiness!

Even though I don't believe in folktales like that one...

But... But...

Tell me where Suzu is!

Damn it! I won't lose sight of you!

Suzu!

Suzu!

Ikuto?

Ikuto!

It's Suzu!

That's Suzu's voice!

Over there?

Suzu! Yukino!

Are you guys down there?

Ikuto! We're here!

Hey, everyone! Ikuto is here to save us!

Thank goodness! Everyone is down there.

Thank you, blue...

Huh? Where did it go?

Was it just an illusion?

Whoo! That was very embarrassing!

Heave-ho!

Are you all right?

Uh, yeah.

Sorry for making you worry.

Seriously, this is very disturbing!

She fell into a hole like this.

Suzu is an id-i-ot!

Well, well, it's good that she's all right!

This will do! All right!

Rin-san, what are you doing?

In order to prevent people from falling into the crevice, I thought I'd make a fence.

I'm sorry.

It's all this idiot's fault that you got into trouble.

No.

The next time I see you, I'll call you an idiot!

It wouldn't have ended up like this if I'd been more careful.

Apparently Suzu-chan is more sensible.

You should learn from her!

Mother!

Oh, my! You're such a kid!

All right! This will do!

If you don't have a lifeline like me,

it's dangerous, Ayane!

I thought I was going to fall into it.

There's another idiot over there!

Then, let's go eat the hot spring buns I brought back!

All right! Let's head home too.

Uh, yeah!

What's wrong, Suzu?

Nothing!

Are you injured?

Huh? Um... Yes!

But I'm fine!

Why didn't you say so?

Ikuto, are you angry?

Of course I am.

Sorry for making you worry.

That's not it.

You should've told me that you're hurt!

You don't have to be so careful with me!

We're a family, after all.

Huh? What's wrong?

Does your leg hurt?

No! I'm just happy!

Because I'm all alone...

and everyone is so kind to me...

but no one ever lectures me.

And you said we're a family, Ikuto.

Come.

I'll carry you.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Yeah!

Suzu is petite. She's light yet firm.

Everyone says Suzu is strong,

but that's not really the case.

She's always trying her best to hang in there.

She actually gets lonely and frightened very easily.

Therefore... I have to be stronger!

To be able to protect Suzu.
