Original subtitles

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

I'm a normal high school student attending Aoi Campus,

I'm a normal high school student attending Aoi Campus,

and I possess the genes that will give birth to the greatest magician in history.

But I used up all of my magic, so my body turned to ash and disappeared.

All that's left of me is a ghost.

Despite that, Yuna, Kuriko and Rin are by my side as always.

Even though I can't do anything.

I'm sorry that I wasn't able to keep my promise.

Kazuki...

Kazuki...

Kazuki!

No!

What's the matter, Kazuki?

I had a weird dream.

Huh?

In it, I use up all my magic and turn into a ghost.

Weird dream, huh?

C'mon, let's hurry. We'll be late.

Right.

Huh?

I really am a ghost.

I'll carry it for you!

Even if you have become a ghost, you're still you, Kazuki!

And as your wife I'll help you out,

so please don't worry!

Okay?

Oh my, oh my. Mr. Shikimori, that just won't do.

Please be sure to actually open the door and use the lobby to come and go.

But I'm a ghost.

That has nothing to do with it.

You are Kazuki Shikimori, aren't you?

I'm sorry, but please leave me alone.

After all, I'm...

Kazuki! Please wait!

Miss Manager, where's Kazuki?

Over there.

Kazuki! That's mean of you to go ahead without me!

Have a good day!

The Masaki, having been made more compact,

continued to undergo improvement as an excellent and portable product,

and along with the newly-released Makyo, would...

That's great, Kazuki!

Last time you got it up 3.3 centimeters,

but this time you lifted it around 3.8 centimeters!

It's wonderful that you're able to hold a pencil, even if you don't have a body!

Now let's try again!

That's enough...

You mustn't give up, Kazuki!

People can do anything if they put their minds to it!

I'm not a person.

Kazuki!

Cut it out, Shikimori, Miyama!

What are you doing?!

We're in the middle of class. Don't you get it?

She's actually saying something serious!

Wow!

She's actually saying something serious!

She's acting like a teacher!

Whoa, this is big!

You're being so loud I can't concentrate!

You're being so loud I can't concentrate!

Kazuki is trying his hardest to participate in this class!

True, his body turned into ash and he can't hold anything or touch anything,

or even flip up a skirt.

But he's doing his best so that he can do all those things!

You're a ghost now, so you don't have to try so hard.

Just linger quietly beneath a willow tree or something!

I'm going to get you.

Got it?

Got it?

That's just too mean!

Kazuki is one of Aoi Campus's students!

No,

Shikimori is not a student!

What?

The reason why is that guys who are ghosts don't have bodies.

Am I wrong, Yuna?

Is it all right for a ghost to be enrolled at Aoi Campus?

Isn't it just limited to humans?

If he doesn't have a body, he doesn't have genes, either.

That means his usefulness is gone too.

That's it, then.

Shikimori! You've lost both your right to attend classes

and your right to be with Yuna!

Disappear! It is the consensus of class 2-B that you leave!

No! It doesn't matter if he's a ghost or whatever, Kazuki is Kazuki!

He's my beloved husband!

No way... Yuna...

Well, I'm all right with him staying so long as he makes himself useful.

But he's a ghost. Is there anything he could be used for?

People will think a ghost this vivid-looking is just a fake.

A way to use a ghost, huh?

Don't worry, Kazuki.

No matter what happens, I'm your wife. I'll always be by your side.

Where are you going, Shikimori? We're in the middle of class.

I'm a ghost, so it has nothing to do with me.

Kazuki...

I want to be with you all too.

But I can't use magic. I can't even hold anything.

I can't do anything in this condition.

I can't do anything for them.

Huh?

What's the matter?

Got you!

When it comes to catching ghosts that are quick to escape,

this method really is the best.

It's not right to just slip out of the classroom, Kazuki.

I had the sense that there was someone else other than Shikimori here.

What?

There's no one else around. You're imagining things.

Anyway, we're taking him with us.

Right.

How is he?

It's remarkable.

His condition is such that he's completely lost his body and become nothing but spirit.

It is just as I said, is it not?

Shikimori is a ghost, like myself.

You should give up.

We can't just give up that easily!

I want Kazuki's genes, at any cost!

Is that what you truly feel?

It is!

I wonder.

Each and every one of you is getting all worked up over Shikimori.

Do not say such foolish things!

The only thing I'm after is his genes!

Really...

No matter what happens, I will not leave Kazuki's side.

After all, I'm his wife!

Yes, yes. I was not asking you.

I... I can go now, right?

Kazuki...

Would you mind leaving me alone?

Well, you can go home for today.

But it would be in your best interests to not wander about on your own too much.

If you're caught by a ghost fanatic, you won't be able to get free again.

And if that happened, it would be problematic for me as well.

Ghost fanatic?

I apologize for earlier.

Not at all.

Well, it appears that I've gotten lost.

Do you know where the old school building is?

Oh, yeah. If you're looking for the old school building, just go straight this way.

Um...

Yes?

Well, would you mind showing me the way?

Sure.

This is it.

It's not being used right now, though, so we can't go inside.

Huh?

Wait a second!

I could not find him.

Neither could I.

Jeez. Where in the world could he have gone?

I swear, Kazuki...

Sheesh.

Um, where are...

We've arrived. This is it.

Huh?

This is your room, Kazuki Shikimori.

What? How do you know my name?

I have spotted a trace of Shikimori's presence. It is faint, but it is there.

Thank goodness.

Jeez, wandering about all by himself like that...

I have sensed another presence near him.

It is a woman.

What did you say? With a woman?!

Kazuki, you two-timer!

Dummy! You have me as your wife and yet...

Rin, do you know which way?

Oh, yes! It is that way.

Hmm. The old school building, huh?

This is a nice sofa...

I've never met a ghost like you before.

You're so cute, Kazuki Shikimori.

Why do you know who I am?

Because you're a bit of a celebrity.

Really?

Yes. As an incomplete ghost.

I will make you a complete ghost, and add you to my collection.

Collection?

Who the heck are these people?!

What do you think? Isn't my collection wonderful?

Now, come this way.

Kazuki Shikimori, from now on, this will be your home.

It's fully air-conditioned, there's no deposit, no key money and no rent.

There's nothing to be scared of.

Now come here.

If you behave yourself, it'll be over soon enough.

It might hurt a little at first, but there's no need to worry.

It'll start to feel good soon enough.

You can be a lot more comfortable in here than you can in a place like this.

That's all right. I...

There's no need for restraint.

I'll make you into a magnificent ghost and take such good care for you.

Please stop it...

Very well.

Let's end it here for now.

You are my cute little ghost.

Kazuki!

Kazuki!

Shikimori!

Kazuki!

Kazuki!

Kazuki!

Yuna!

Two-timer!

I will add you to my collection, no matter what.

I see, that's suspicious.

Isn't it? Don't you think so too?

It's horrible of him!

He has a wife like me and yet...

Oh, Kazuki!

He has always been a no-good man, so it is not unthinkable.

You're wrong! True, he's wishy-washy, and too nice to women,

but Kazuki is not a no-good man!

Well, there is proof, after all.

This is two-timing, isn't it?

It is not a good idea to use magic here!

Well, I certainly don't like this.

The fact is that Kazuki met with someone in the old school building,

which is supposed to be abandoned.

We had best find out the identity of the person who possessed that magical power as well.

What is Kazuki doing right now?

Er, that is...

I put up a barrier and locked him in. For now.

It serves him right.

In any case, we can't leave things like this.

Wait up!

See ya!

See ya!

Wait up!

Yuna.

Please go home ahead of me.

I have something to take care of.

Been tossed aside, huh, Shikimori?

This wouldn't have happened if you were a real human being!

As your best friend, it makes me sad.

Go after him. Don't lose track of him.

You all certainly are eccentric.

What does it matter if you lose a ghost or two if they're like that?

Yes, yes...

Shikimori...

It's no use running.

I will not become part of your collection!

Are you all right with that? I know...

What do you know?

What you most wish for right now.

Troublesome, isn't it?

You can't hold anything, you can't touch anything.

If you lose your focus, you can't even stand.

If you joined me, you'd be free from those sorts of inconveniences.

Is that the truth?

If I join you, then I...

I hate lies.

Trust me.

That Shikimori! Who was he speaking to?

Kazuki isn't coming out.

Where could he possibly be wandering about?

He is a ghost, so there is no way to say that he will come out through the gate

like a normal person, is there?

I'm telling you, there's no need to worry.

Even if he has become a ghost, it looks like he can't break free of the habits

he had when he was alive.

Kazuki...

Sneak...

Sneak... Sneak...

What is this?

I felt strong magical power just now!

Yes, I felt it too.

Kazuki... You really are...

Where is this?

Welcome to my collection room.

By my hand, you are going to become one of them!

This isn't what we discussed!

I came here because you said you'd teach me how to go back to being human!

Oh my. It seems you've misunderstood.

All I said was that things as they are now are probably troublesome for you,

and that I would free you of your inconveniences.

No way...

There's no need to worry.

If you become part of my collection, then you'll want for nothing.

I love the ghost you are.

This isn't funny. I...

Behave yourself. You're a good boy, so...

You can't escape.

Prepare yourself!

No...

Yu...

Kazuki!

Oh my. You've come again.

He really was meeting a woman.

Kazuki, I believed...

I believed in you!

You've got it all wrong, Yuna! It's a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!

Kazuki, you...

Kazuki, you liar!

So that's what it was. I'm sorry!

Well, as long as you understand, it's all right.

Yeah.

There's no way you would two-time me, right, Kazuki?

Silly me.

I'm really embarrassed.

I'm glad you're all right, Kazuki.

You mustn't push yourself.

If there's a way to make you human again, I'll find it for you!

Thanks, Yuna.

Seriously, Yuna's making too much of this.

She ends up making every display of affection a public one.

Do not be so jealous. You have me, do you not?

Don't lump yourselves together. Kazuki is different.

Who in the world was that woman who was after Shikimori?

Who knows? And to have a collection of ghosts...

What a disgusting hobby.

You mustn't go out by yourself from now on, Kazuki.

Right.

From now on, I'll always be with you, okay?

I'm here too, you know.

I'm Kazuki's wife!

What is with you, always saying, "wife, wife"?

I'm saying wife because I am his wife!

No, you just say that you are, that's all.

That's not true! I'm Kazuki's wife, so...

Kazuki Shikimori, eh?

A lot of things happened, but he came back.

Shikimori is transparent.

He didn't have much of a presence to begin with.

More importantly, doesn't that woman bother you?

No matter who might try to show up or come close, I am Kazuki's wife!

In any case, the next episode of Maburaho is "We Were Trapped"

This bad feeling I have is getting worse and worse.
