Original subtitles

I'm Kazuki Shikimori and I'm seventeen years old.

I attend Aoi Campus, a school that is full of nothing but first-class magicians,

but I'm a less than ordinary, worthless, failure of a man

that girls don't even look at.

All of the sudden,

three beautiful girls came calling on a guy like me.

But what their target was...

my genes!

Kazuki...

Kazuki...

Please wake up, Kazuki.

Kazuki!

Good morning.

You're all here early.

Don't "you're all here early" us.

I mean, the alarm clock's been going off this whole time.

Your change of clothes...

Thank you, Rin...

You could hand them to him yourself, you know.

Kazuki, I made hot sandwiches for breakfast, so we could eat while we walked.

Let's hurry, so we're not late.

Okay.

Kazuki!

Shikimori!

I'm okay.

It looks like my body wants to sleep a little more.

Are you all right, Kazuki?

Yeah.

In that case, it's fine, but...

If you're not feeling well, then don't push yourself.

I'm sorry about making you worry about me.

Come back here!

Come back here!

You're not getting away!

Shikimori?! Are you planning on helping this thief?

Those aren't yours?

What did you just do?!

Because of you, he got away, didn't he?

Calm down, Nakamaru...

How can I calm down after that?

My precious jewels were just stolen!

Exactly how much value do you think they have?!

Umm...

You're talking about these, right?

Yes, those.

You got them back, so forgive him, will you?

He's still little too, so...

And there might be a reason for this...

No, there isn't.

I bet he was going to steal these necklaces and sell them off.

You're the only one who thinks that.

Exactly. There's no way a child could sell them.

More importantly, Nakamaru.

Yes?

Aren't you going to school today?

For you to be into wearing women's clothes...

I have no interest in them as accessories at all.

Just in the value of the jewels.

Look at my eyes!

Do they look like the eyes of someone who likes to wear women's clothes?

They're the eyes of someone who loves money. They're nice.

Are they that valuable?

Well, just from a glance, a rough estimate of several million wouldn't be absurd.

Depending on the circumstances, it might be even higher.

Where did you get them?

Well you see...

Nakamaru, it couldn't be...

It couldn't be...

It couldn't be...

Wait a second!

There's no way that I would steal these, right?

Then you can at least tell us how you got your hands on these, right?

Just as we thought...

Just as we thought...

I got them at the park.

Oh, at a flea market?

Not that, late at night.

In other words, you found them.

In that case, you have to take them to the police.

I'm sure that the owner is looking for them, even now.

They had been thrown away.

Where?

The sandbox...

There's no way.

Rather, those are mine!

No, they're mine!

No, they're mementos of my grandma!

In any case, hand them over for a bit!

Hands off!

Please wait a second.

From what I've heard, then they might belong to the boy from this morning.

No way that's true!

He said, very clearly and in front of us, that they weren't.

Right, Shikimori?

Oh, it's you!

You!

Why you, come back here!

I'm going to catch him and get an apology and a lot of compensation from his parents!

Come back here!

Aoi Campus is like my backyard.

I'll be sure to catch him!

Where is he?!

Oh, Kuriko...

It seems kind of interesting.

Don't mind us.

More importantly, about that boy.

He certainly has guts, coming even to the school to steal them.

It's not like it's his stuff, right?

But all he did was shake his head.

It's something I won't know until I can get an actual answer from him, after all.

You're certainly quick to come to his defense.

Have you found any evidence or anything that he's been falsely accused?

No, not at all.

Why in the world am I with a man like this?

Here?

Here?

Where is he?!

Perhaps you're getting too carried away.

You know what's going to happen now, don't you?

Let's talk this over.

Where did he go?

Hey...

Wait for us...

Is something the matter?

I've got a favor to ask...

Pass by these stairs and keep on running, just like this.

What about you, Shikimori?

I'll be...

Okay!

Even if you don't say it, I kind of know what you're getting at!

Please take care of it!

Shikimori, that jerk...

he may think he did a good job in fooling us, but it won't work on us!

You don't have to run.

Why did you try to take them?

I... I wasn't trying to take...

Stop right there!

We've finally found you, thief!

It's all right.

I see. So you're the mastermind, Shikimori.

There's no way that's true.

I was just asking this boy why he tried to take the necklaces.

Shut up!

We'll capture you along with the boy!

Hold on a second!

You don't have to go that far, if we talk it over...

There's no need to talk it over!

Well, this is bad.

I've got to protect this boy at the very least.

You mustn't use your magic!

Stop, Kazuki!

Shikimori!

Kazuki!

Shikimori!

Shikimori?

Hey, Shikimori...

Kazuki, please wake up!

Kazuki!

Shikimori!

Kazuki!

Kazuki! Hold on!

It couldn't be...

It can't be...

You're kidding, right?

Kazuki!

Kazuki!

Shikimori!

Hold on!

Kazuki!

Kazuki!

Kazuki!

It looks like he's used up quite a bit of his stamina.

Is he all right?

He's just sleeping, so there's probably nothing to worry about.

However, the number of times he can use magic has definitely decreased.

At this rate, there's no mistaking that his stamina is going to continue to decrease.

What can we do so that Kazuki...

All you can do is make it so that he doesn't use his magic.

I don't know how many he has left, but...

If he keeps going at this rate, then he'll certainly turn into ash.

So, why did he use his magic today?

Oh, he didn't use his magic.

Which means?

It was when he was going to use his magic, in order to protect a boy.

Why did he try to protect the boy?

We don't know why.

Probably because Shikimori believed in the boy.

Well, it certainly is like him, I suppose.

After all, he's always using his magic to help others,

without worrying about his own life.

He's an unusual man.

Why you, Shikimori...

Pretending to be unconscious, and around now,

you're doing this and that with Yuna and the others.

Where am I?

Kazuki!

It's the nurse's office. Remember?

You were about to use your magic on Nakamaru and the others when...

Are you all right?

Yeah. More importantly, where's that boy?

After you passed out, he went off somewhere.

You mustn't, you need to rest.

That's right.

But I have to go.

He was going to tell me why...

But with your health being the way it is...

Kazuki, I'll go.

I'll be sure to find him, and ask him why, so please relax and rest.

Yuna...

We'll help out too.

Kuriko, Rin, all of you... thanks.

Rest well, Kazuki.

Rest well.

Rest well.

I'll go and look for the boy.

Will you be all right by yourself?

I'll go along too.

Thank you, Rin!

Hey, what's going on?

What are you doing?

We were wondering if Shikimori was all right.

He's all right. He's just sleeping because he was tired.

Oh, so that's it. Thank goodness.

They're all so nice.

They'll be back, I bet.

Now then, I guess I'll go and do some work.

Where are you going?

I thought I would help out too.

We're all alone now...

This is a chance, isn't it?

I'm sorry, girls...

I'm going to take Kazuki's genes!

I guess I will let him off the hook.

And you wanted them so much too.

Are you all right with this?

I'm not in the mood for that today.

In the end, all I've done is take.

What? Nakamaru and the others think we were doing something strange with Kazuki?

That's correct.

And I thought they had come because they were worried about Kazuki too.

So that's what it was.

So this is where you were.

Please wait!

We've come in Shikimori's place.

If it's all right with you, would you mind telling us what's going on?

If you're wondering about Kazuki, he's all right.

He's resting in the nurse's office right now.

Why did you try to steal Nakamaru's necklaces?

Yuna...

Things are fine here, so how about you go back to the nurse's office?

What?

I'll get the answers from this boy, so...

But...

Thank you!

Now then...

So alike...

I haven't even paid back my only debt to him.

Umm...

I wasn't taking them.

What?

I wasn't taking them.

Damn it! I can almost see, but I can't...

So it was just as Rin said.

Huh? Hey...

That is, I just happened to be passing by...

Did something happen?

No.

Did you find the boy?

Yes.

Rin is with him, but...

he's not really talking.

Maybe I should go and help out.

Kuriko?

I don't mean anything weird by that.

And I haven't done anything strange to Kazuki yet.

Kazuki...

Oh my...

I see, thank goodness.

Good work, Rin.

He can only use magic three more times.

Kazuki!

That's why I'm telling you, this boy didn't steal them!

Give them back!

Wait a minute!

There's no way he snuck into my home and didn't steal them, right?

Is that a place you'd call a home?

I see. You found him.

Around now, Kuriko and Rin should be getting the story from the boy.

Thank goodness.

Kazuki...

Please don't overdo it.

Using your magic...

It's all right, Yuna. Don't worry about it so much.

I haven't regretted using magic, not even once.

There hasn't been a time when it was wasted, so...

And I still have three uses too.

But...

But?

You're so kind to everyone, Kazuki, so that...

I've found the owners.

Here you are!

In other words, these were lost by those girls, right?

Does that seem foolish?

No...

That is wonderful.

And so, he went and did it.

Oh, Kazuki really doesn't think before he acts.

He's hopeless.

But that's one of his good points. You know that.

And so, the next episode of Maburaho is "He Used It"

Which means, it couldn't be, Kazuki?!
