Original subtitles

This must be the place.

Miss, we are here.

It's useless anyway.

All the attempts so far have failed.

It'll work this time.

I've been told that he comes from the Inukami Tsukai clan, the Kawahira family.

He'll surely protect you, Miss!

And I keep saying it's a nuisance to me.

Only more people are going to get hurt.

Not to mention...

What is it?!

Hey, Keita!

I'm not done punishing you yet!

I-I give up...

Oh no you don't!

I won't forgive you until you spill everything about Maiko-chan!

U-Umm...

Huh?

Umm, by any chance, could this "Keita-sama" be you?

The Inukami Tsukai, Kawahira Keita-sama?

Yeah, I am.

Is something the matter?

Sorry for the late introduction, I'm the Shindou family's butler, Sebastian.

Sebas-chan?

Oh, I've heard about you from Hake.

A job request, right?

He told me to get the details on it from you.

Yes.

Well, here I come!

H-Hold on!

What the hell are you doing?!

No point in arguing!

Don't get too excited, you bastard.

As expected. It would've been a waste of time if you didn't meet my expectations.

I got you, you bastard!

This is nothing!

How's this?

If you're going to fight, take it outside!

I sincerely apologize.

I'm aware it was rude, but I was testing you earlier, Kawahira-sama.

Still, you didn't have to suddenly attack me wearing a black bikini.

Jeez, why do we have to bring these kids with us?

It's apparent that my problem is too much for them to handle.

What's with that attitude?

You don't even know how strong we are!!

Cut it out.

Keita...

Whatever you say, Miss, I am going to take a gamble with this Inukami Tsukai-san.

Then again, it is a fact that I have no one else to depend on.

Kawahira-san, what we are seeking is a strong medium.

Or possibly, a martial artist with a heart stronger than anyone.

One who can fight against the worst and most powerful being.

So, who's this opponent I'm supposed to fight?

That is...

I'm car sick...

Huh?!

What did you say?!

I don't feel good...

H-H-H-Hold on a second!

Don't be too hasty!

Please hold it in!

Just swallow it!

I can't...

I'm at my limit...

Note: "Zaibatsu" is a Japanese term meaning "money clique" or conglomerate.

As expected from the Shindou Zaibatsu's mansion.

I can pay then years' worth of rent just by selling this vase here.

Note: "Zaibatsu" is a Japanese term meaning "money clique" or conglomerate.

That much?

If we succeed in this job, we'll receive lots of money, won't we?

Yeah, that's how it is.

That's good, but why don't you put some clothes on?

I'm always like this anyhow.

You're totally right.

No matter how strong those kids are, they're no match for him.

They definitely won't be able to beat him...

Stop! Please stop!

Count me out of this too!

He's a monster!

They should leave right away.

Tomorrow it'll be too late for them to turn back...

Does it look good on me?

You look pretty sharp in it.

Keita, you look cool too.

Huh? What's that?

A song?

Is that Kei girl singing it?

What a dark song.

Keita?

Thanks for the meal!

This is delicious!

You're right!

I'm going to stuff myself tonight.

Hey!

That's my meat!

Give it back to me!

Owowow...!

There's still a lot of food left!

Jeez!

So, will you tell me the details about this job already?

Keita...!

The Shindou family is a highly reputable family

that dates back to the Meiji Restoration.

G-Give me back... this meat!

However, during the time of Kei-sama's grandfather,

Let me eat the meat in peace!

they fell into abject poverty.

Her grandfather chose a method to restore their fortunes that should not have been used!

It can't be...

He made a contract with a shinigami.

It is said that a shinigami grants one's wish in exchange for a certain price.

He used his strength to amass a huge fortune for the Shindou family.

However, the price to be paid was...

He makes his appearance every year on my birthday,

and brings fear to all of the Shindou family.

That is part of the agreement in the contract.

"Part"?

There's more to it?

Every member of the Shindou family will lose their life to him...

On their 20th birthday...

What?!

He went easy on me until last year.

However, he won't this year.

He'll come after my life,

and the lives of anyone who tries to protect me.

That means...

I-It can't be that...

That's right.

Tomorrow's my 20th birthday.

No way...

Impossible!

N-No matter how I look at you...

You look like a middle school, or even an elementary school, student.

What...?

At the oldest, I thought you were about Tomohane's age, starting to grow pubes.

Exactly.

U-Umm...

What exactly are you two talking about?

You better not lay your hands on that!

I-Idiot!

I certainly don't have that kind of special hobby!

But you know, this world is bigger than I expected.

Yeah, there's a 20 year old like her.

Yeah, I can't believe it.

Yeah, I know.

Hey! Aren't there other things you two should be surprised about?!

And why are you laughing with them too?!

I-I'm truly sorry.

This childish figure was passed on to me by my mother.

Well, I'm sorry!

Well, don't worry.

I'll do something about him.

That means...!

I'll take the job exterminating the shinigami.

The Inukami Tsukai Kawahira Keita-sama will.

Hey you, did you listen to what I just--

Thank you very much!

I will reward you however you wish.

Are you serious?!

You can take all of the Shindou family fortune if you wish!

As long as you protect her.

I beg of you.

It'll be fine, Sebas-chan.

Since Keita has me by his side.

You can be relieved as well, Shindou Kei.

You two...

What's this?

What's this sound?

No way...

Just why?!

H-Hey, what's the matter?

No... No...

No...!

NO!!!

Keita! Something's approaching!

Ladies and Gentlemen!

The day has finally come!

The 20th birthday harvest!

The time to reap the soul!

The moment to pluck the body!

The greatest! The true shinigami out of all shinigami!

My name is "Sea of Violence"!

Sorry to keep you waiting, Shindou Kei.

Here, it's the start of the tragic night!

What's the matter?

There's no one who'll face me this year?

Shindou family, don't disappoint me.

Hey you.

Shindou Kei, it's been a year, hasn't it?

I've threatened you many times over the years,

however, it'll end in an instant when I take your life.

You better be grateful for my compassion.

Hey you!

What?

Are you listening to me, upside down guy?!

Who might you be?

Who do you think I am, "Sea of Violence"?

H-How do you know my name?

You presented yourself earlier!

Oh, I see!

Then you are...

I'm the Inukami Tsukai-san that's been hired to defeat you!

And Inukami Youko!

I have killed many wrestlers and karate practitioners,

but it'll be my first time to kill an Inukami Tsukai-san and an Inukami Youko.

I thank you, Shindou family.

Now, come after me!

You beings who stand upside down.

What?

Don't tell me he hasn't realized he's the one who's upside down?

What?

I'm the one upside down?

And also, aren't you perhaps off by one day?

What?

One day? Off?

What?

Poor guy.

He seriously made a mistake.

How pitiful of him.

Yeah, exactly.

I'll end it here for today.

Let's meet again tomorrow.

Wait a minute!

You big fool!

You don't feel too great about leaving like this, right?

Come play with me for a bit!

Don't!

This is where he shows his true colors!

I see.

So you want to die today, don't you?

Let's go, Youko.

Okay.

I call in the name of the wise ruler of Hakusan!

Frog...

...crush our enemy!

Dai Jaen!

Did we get him?

Don't let your guard down.

Most likely not.

He's gone?!

Keita!

Were you surprised, Inukami Tsukai-san?

At that distance, your fire and spiritual charms have no effect against a shinigami's black robe.

Note: "Xing Yi Quan" or "Hsing Yi Ch'uan" is the oldest of the orthodox, internal styles of Chinese martial art.

Xing Yi Quan, huh?

However, it lacks style.

Come again.

Note: "Xing Yi Quan" or "Hsing Yi Ch'uan" is the oldest of the orthodox, internal styles of Chinese martial art.

I call in the name of the wise ruler of Hakusan!

Frog...

Keita!

...crush our enemy!

You did it!

I doubt that.

Now you've done it, Inukami Tsukai-san.

I go easy on you, and you push your luck.

Well then, come at me with your best fighting technique.

I'll fight you with the same technique.

Since that's part of the agreement.

Shindou Kei, watch a little more of this.

However!

Sebastian, you aren't needed.

Sebastian!

Hey, Shinigami!

I won't do anything to you.

Just quietly observe the party of despair that's about to begin.

It's show time.

Massacre time!

Stop showing off!

Take this! And that!

Oh my. What an energetic Inukami Youko.

I like you.

Let me have the honor of taking a peek at your fear.

Youko!

Dogs! Dogs!

What did you do to Youko?!

I'm a being that controls fear.

If I envision the opponent, I can perceive his fear and ensnare him in it without difficulty.

Just like this!

Be frightened!

Cower!

Now, show me your fear!

Keita!

Who's this Maiko-chan?!

You cheater!

I'll never forgive you!

Oh, Keita-san.

Where are you heading this late at night?

Keita, do you think love between different species exists?

Keita, you don't have to endure it.

Now, come play with me.

S-Stop this now!

I have no intention of starting a household just yet!

Hey Keita!

That was a dreadful attack.

But it seems like it didn't work against me!

Don't you have a stronger fear than that?

Shut up!

But anyway, that trump card of yours won't work against me at all!

Prepare yourself!

A trump card? This?

How foolish.

That was a mere sideshow.

You're bluffing!

Then show me some proof!

Come on! Where is it?

Do you really think you're provoking me with that?

Well then, I'll show it to you.

The difference in strength between you and me, heaven and earth.

Now, listen to the song that despair plays!

So you're the heiress of the Shindou family.

Entertain me well, new life.

Hey, Sebastian.

Why don't I have a papa or a mama?

Why don't I?

It's boring...

Sebastian!

I don't want a birthday like this!

I want to have a party just like everyone else!

Miss, I'm truly sorry.

Kei-chan, happy birthday!

Hurry and blow it out!

O-Okay.

Shindou Kei, you're doing something rather unusual for a change, aren't you?

Don't ruin it!

Ah... You've finally reached an age when you can confront me as an adult, huh?

Oh my.

Human homes are quite brittle as well, aren't they?

Don't worry, Shindou Kei.

As stated in the contract, I won't kill anyone today.

Not to mention I was going easy on them in the first place.

Ah... I just love the look on your face when you're frightened.

Kei, the last survivor of the Shindou family.

K-Kei's birthday is tomorrow.

Don't go breaking the contract.

Tomorrow... I will...

Definitely defeat you... for sure...

You're very interesting, Inukami Tsukai-san.

In that case, show me what you're made of tomorrow!

And at that moment, I'll shove true fear into you!

That's why... I told you to leave.

I'm tired of this already.

I'm just waiting for the shinigami to take my life.

I don't want to see more...

More of you guys getting hurt...

More people dying...

Hey.

Oh, you're up?

Yeah.

Thanks for this.

It's a service.

As you can see, the mansion I was supposed to give you has become like this.

Now, go home.

It's really okay for me to go home?

Of course.

Oh yeah.

Will you listen to my last wish?

What is it?

When you go home, I don't mind if you knock him out, but will you take Sebastian with you?

Because he'll probably say he'll stay by my side.

Goodbye. Please live happily ever after.

I think you have quite the talent in singing!

Thanks.

Everything has been crushed in the presence of an overwhelming power.

The girl who has lived looking at despair sings the song of death

as the shinigami laughs loudly from the shadows.

The repeated grief is unbearable, while the future is blotted out by the darkness.

However! At that moment, there was a single person who lit the signal fire for a counterattack!

Next time on Inukami!

However, It's Your Song That I Need!

Is there light waiting there?
