Original subtitles

I'm very selfish.

20th Mechanism.

Cutting Blade Form: Hatchet of Lingchi.

Curse calling!

Fear!

What are you—

Seems like that stupid cube finally came out.

Let the ball of death begin!

You promised me!

I never promised anything.

You were just being selfish.

So I'll be selfish, too.

If I act strange, don't hesitate to destroy me.

dare mo shiru hito no inai machi ni

I know of no one in this city

afureru kage no mukou ni anata ga iru

Beyond the overflowing shadows, I see you

onaji bamen no ripurei

I was replaying the same scene

arifureta hibi wo kaete shimau hohoemi no mahou

The magic in your smile broke me free of my mundane routine

dou ni mo naranai no ni

Even though it can't be changed,

kinou ni mayou toki anata no yasashisa wa hikari wo kureru

When I get lost in yesterday, your kindness is my guiding light

itsumo itsumo anata no soba de ai wo tsuyoku dakishimetai yo

I want to embrace my love forever and ever, here by your side

meguriai wa tatta hitotsu no owari no nai sutoorii

Our fated encounter is the one story with no end

Chapter 5

Even if I Were to be Cursed

If I act strange, don't hesitate to destroy me.

Bitch!

Fear...

What on Earth are you saying?

You aren't making any sense!

I'll only say this once.

I will trust you for absolutely no reason, Muramasa Konoha.

Your terrible personality and the cold, logical mindset you've kept hidden.

Yachi Haruaki, I will also trust you for no reason.

You're a hopelessly mundane stooge,

but I'll trust that you truly wish for my happiness.

Fear—?

Basically,

when I act strange, I want to be destroyed.

It will make me happy.

So would you kindly—

No way.

I will not.

I didn't think you were this stupid.

Agreed.

I know I'm stupid.

I'm no longer a tool that is being manipulated.

I have to take responsibility for my actions.

Everything you said was self-centered.

Allow me to be selfish, too, then.

I'm ignoring your request!

Wh... What?!

I, too, will trust you for no reason.

I trust that you'll do your best not to go crazy.

Hmph!

There's no need to trust me on that.

Because I'm betting my own pride on the fact that I won't!

Wait.

We need some time.

What?

Take Haruaki-kun's condition into account.

He needs time to recover.

Man, I'm such a disgrace.

It'd help loads, though.

Okay.

Our ball isn't over just yet.

The ball of death must continue until you die.

Yachi?

You there?

Excuse me.

A friend of that boy?

How convenient.

Absolutely bitchin'.

I'll just tell you since there's no use hiding it anymore.

My hand's starting to go limp.

I'll do it.

Wh-What are you saying?

Can you hear me, Fear-in-Cube?

You too, boy and Japanese sword.

You should come out, you know.

Does she think we're stupid or something?

Have fun waiting for us.

It's fine if you don't want to.

It's not like I care about this girl.

Dance Time is dying to dance.

I'll count down from ten.

If you don't come out by then, this area might end up a bit more colorful.

Let's start.

Ten,

nine,

eight,

seven...

Stop!

Let her go!

She has nothing to do with this!

If you don't, then I'll have to use this.

Using this to get rid of you will be a piece of cake.

Is that so?

Stop that!

I'm outside, just as you demanded!

It's strange, really.

Did you come out just because she's a hostage?

Just because she's a hostage?

Your rage is also strange.

I mean, you're not human.

I'm doing it because I want to.

That's all.

So that's how you pretend to be human and suck up to humans

in an attempt to have your sins forgiven.

A bitch move!

I won't forgive you.

I won't!

What you people did to my mother,

what you forced upon my father...!

You're trying to forget the pain,

indignity,

and immorality that ruined my entire family?!

For trying to cleanse your own curse,

I'll curse,

and curse,

and curse,

and curse,

and curse,

and curse you in turn!

Curse me, then.

I have no intention of forgetting my sins.

And I can't tell if the curse is the sin I committed,

or if I'm cursed because I sinned.

I curse and am cursed myself.

Yet I can't tell for the life of me.

I never want to hear another scream, though.

What was that?

What filthy, abhorrent words!

It's so bad, it gives me chills!

The bitch of all bitch statements!

That may be so,

but I wish to be here.

This is my first decision as Fear, not as Fear-in-Cube.

I'm staying here.

If you want to curse me, then just do it!

Bitch!

You have no right to say something so human-ish,

so just die already!

I won't let you live without suffering from your curse.

Die! Die!

Die! Die! Die! Die!

I'm so damn pissed!

Don't lose it!

Kirika!

Don't say it.

Endure it.

I can't forgive her!

I'll kill her...

Calm down.

I'll kill you!

I'll save you.

I can still save her!

Don't lose it!

So don't go crazy!

Pitiful.

Get up and fight me!

I don't care if I'm pitiful.

I don't care if I don't fight.

My only purpose is to stay sane!

To hold it in.

To persevere.

I won't go crazy!

Haruaki.

You too, Cow Tits.

Listen to me.

Okay.

I'll trust you.

You're—

Killing Counter!

There will be blood.

Cursed blood.

Alas, because we must defeat this opponent,

I shall, for this moment, ignore the taboo of murder.

Prez!

Hang in there!

I'll call an ambulance!

Fool.

I've already dissected that girl like a frog.

Die!

Fear-kun!

Prez...?

8th Mechanism.

Crushing Cyclic Form: Breaking by Wheel at Francs.

No...

S-Save... me...

Mummy.

Mummy Maker!

That's right!

Mummy Maker, my Auxiliary.

Please, save me!

No...

I killed her...

I... killed her!

Mummy Maker...

There's no one left...

My weapon's gone, too...

Someone, anyone...

This whip...

Don't worry.

I only knocked her out.

Well, now.

Things sure got out of hand.

Don't look.

It's embarrassing.

Sorry.

But what was that?

And that axe...

This?

Allow me to explain.

There are objects called Indulgence Discs.

I don't know much about them,

but they seem to be related to Fear-kun.

Hold on to this one for now.

Leave this woman to me.

Ueno-san.

Are you...?

It really isn't good to do something you're not used to.

Even if I Were to be Cursed

And for today's cooking battle...!

Yachi Haruaki wins with his vinegared mackerel toasted sandwich!

The theme was vinegar, so why didn't I think of vinegared mackerel?

I'll win next time.

Prez!

What is it?

I have to go to the math preparation room.

Save it for after school.

Oh? What's going on here?!

Could this be a confession of love?

Come on, Yachi! You already have me!

Unthinkable.

I was going to ask Yachi about the secrets behind his cooking.

Right?

Cooking secrets?

Come on, we're smarter than that!

I see.

So you get your ideas from a cooking manga.

Sounds like something worth looking into.

I guess I should tell you.

That wavering toy has been stored away in a facility.

Ueno-san.

The clothes you're wearing are cursed, aren't they?

Yes.

It's a Waas called Gimestorante's Love.

A crazy sadist cursed his slave's physical frailty,

and the slave cursed her fate of torture.

Thus, this was born.

It causes its wearer to never die from external injuries.

What?

That's preposterous.

The more preposterous it is, the stronger the curse.

Though it heals any damage I take,

I'll die if I take it off.

So I can't take it off once I've worn it.

For my whole life.

Yo... Your whole life?

My whole life.

It troubles me, since I didn't choose to wear it.

And this here is Kurokawa Karen.

A former serial killer's beloved item.

I now use it to protect myself.

Please tell me what happened yesterday, Ueno-san.

What exactly are you?

First, I'll make it clear that I'm not your enemy.

I apologize for hiding it from you,

but I never intended to interfere.

However, circumstances changed after I ran into Fear-kun the other evening.

So you already knew my true identity at the time.

Actually, since you first came to school.

When Mummy Maker came to discuss terms,

I knew I had to do something.

I rewrote what was on her card

and tossed it in their hideout when I had the chance.

I figured it'd cause some sort of conflict.

Too much conflict, apparently.

One more thing. I also attempted to kidnap you.

I'm sorry.

I was the one who came late at night.

Why?

I... I cut your arm off?!

Yes.

My excuse is, well...

I thought it'd be the only way I could protect you, Yachi.

But because I couldn't show myself,

I decided to copy the enemy's appearance.

I thought about it after retreating.

You weren't scared.

I also saw how Fear-kun and Konoha-kun reacted to me.

If you two seriously wish to protect Yachi,

then my actions aren't necessarily.

Allow me to apologize for what happened last night.

I don't really get it.

What's your goal, Ueno-san?

My goal?

Let's see...

Isn't it normal for the class president to help out her classmates?

What the heck?

Huh?

Uh...

I don't know whether you believe me or not, but that's really it.

I wanted to help you.

Maybe not overtly, but just a little from the shadows.

You didn't have to hide it.

You could've just told us.

That would've been best.

I'm a member of a certain organization.

Not that I wanted to be,

but it restricts what I can do.

An organization?

Do you mean—?!

Don't get me wrong.

It has a completely separate agenda from the Knights of Gathering.

Though it is unthinkable.

What is it?

A research organization.

Their only aim is to learn more about Waas and curses.

In other words, I had the role of observing Yachi and Konoha-kun.

My greatest wish is to have you forget about everything by tomorrow, Yachi.

I originally didn't want you to know anything about this.

If you really want me to, I will.

But let me ask one thing.

What is that organization?

If you're in it against your will, then why...?

Yamimagari Pakuaki's Laboratory Kingdom.

That's the name of the unthinkable miniature country my brother made.

yawarakana tsukiakari ga terasu utakata no yukigane

The soft moonlight lights up the fleeting snow

kachikanda chiisana te wo awase sukitooru machi ni hohoemu

Holding my small, blistered hands together, I smile at the lucent town

sayagu toki wo subete tsutsumikonde tada somaru yoru ni tokihanate

It wraps around the rustling leaves of time, and releases it all into the dyed night

furisozoku shiroi hanabira kokoro wo sotto hodoiteku

The white blossoms showering down slowly undo the knots of my soul

te no hira de toketa setsuna wo miseru

I watch the moment as it melts in my palm

ao no nai sora no kanata ni yuku saki no hikari utsushite

At the far end of the blueless sky, they reflect the light of where we've yet to go

madoi mo tomoseba ii

Why not light up my doubts as well?

musunda hana yo

O knotted flower

ima ni todoke to

Please come back today

I know this.

I... think I know, at least.

Hey, I'm coming in.

O... Okay.

What did you want me to do?

Y... Yes...

Well...

Yo... You're the...

You're the only person I'd give permission to do this.

It's embarrassing for me, too.

Okay.

I'm going to put it in.

Don't trace the lines with your fingers!

Dummy!

I'll get it over and done with quickly, then.

I feel it!

It's touching...

It's pretty tight.

It's inside!

Is it all inside?

No, just the tip.

Here I go...

It's tight...

Does it hurt?

Should I stop?

No, keep going.

Just keep going.

I'm fine.

I'll do it in one go, then.

It's inside!

It's... It's all inside!

You did well, Fear.

How wrong!

Be it a box or a sword, it's still a body.

Touching is "touching."

Understand?

Ye... Yes.

You touched her, correct?

I think.... I did.

You felt her?

I may... have felt her.

Pervert.

I-I'm sorry!

But, uh...

I only meant it as some kind of fix!

A maintenance procedure!

Big news, big news!

This is big news!

Wh... What is?

I can't assume the Iron Maiden form anymore!

Does that mean your curse has weakened?

I don't know.

But it must be because we inserted that Indulgence Disc thing.

Is that a good thing?

Of course.

It's great!

If we put in more of those discs,

I probably won't be able to turn into the other forms

and hurt anyone else anymore!

No, I won't be able to!

I won't have to worry about my past self anymore!

It's a celebration!

We shall celebrate with rice crackers!
