Original subtitles

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

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.

No matter where you go, things are crowded on long holidays.

But, well, all that's left is...

I wonder if he's regained a little bit of his humanity since then...

How about it, Kazuki?

Kazuki!

Kazuki!

Hold on, Shikimori!

Why? Why is this happening?

All of his ashes have been restored!

Kazuki...

Kazuki...

Kazuki...

Kazuki...

Kazuki...

Kazuki...

Kazuki...

This is for me?

"If remembering me in future will be too difficult..."

"It would be well this very day That I should end my life," eh?

What do you want?

Actually...

What's going on? What is this?

Yamase, why are you here?

Kazuki? Kazuki!

Kazuki!

Chihaya, why are you here?

Well, I happened to have business up here,

so I figured I would see how Kazuki was doing...

More importantly, why has this happened?

We don't know.

You don't know? You can't be serious!

Hey, Kazuki, wake up, Kazuki!

Kazuki!

Hold on!

Please stop!

Kazuki! Hey, come on, Kazuki!

Yamase, if you do that, Kazuki will...

You're just kidding, right?!

Kazuki!

We've already done everything we could!

His memories will...

Come on, Kazuki!

Chihaya!

Kazuki!

That is...

Please, Kazuki!

Please stop!

Shikimori is certainly a weakling, his grades are bad,

he is a coward, there is nothing redeeming about him,

and he is always making everyone worry...

But, I am sure that he will keep his promise!

Rin...

Rin...

Shikimori!

Kazuki!

Girls...

Huh? Yamase, too?

What's wrong? Did I do something again?

This way.

Thank you.

Why you...

Doctor!

What do you want?!

You just don't learn!

This is no time to being saying things like that, is it?

Please wait.

I called the two of them here.

Manager?

Shikimori, do you know who I am?

Huh? You're here too, Shino?

What's wrong?

I see. You know who I am.

Shino...

Kazuki!

Calm down.

He merely fell asleep for now, at least.

So then, what happened to your ashes?

They were restored to Shikimori.

Is that true?

It is!

I do not lie!

What are you trying to say?

All of our ashes have been restored to Kazuki!

Kazuki is a human!

No, he's still a ghost.

What?

That's right. Just as Shino says, he hasn't gone back to being a human yet.

Looking at his condition, I'd say he's missing about one person's worth.

But all of our ashes have been restored to Kazuki!

And yet... why?

I don't think now is the time to be standing around thinking.

Right now, Shikimori is neither a human nor a ghost.

He's in an extremely unstable condition right now.

If this condition continues for a long time,

then his body and his spirit will reject each other.

In other words, at this rate, he will completely disappear from this world.

That can't be...

Kazuki will...

We don't know when he'll disappear.

Although it's certain not to be too far down the road.

That isn't allowed.

That's not allowed. It's more than not allowed!

I won't allow Kazuki to stop existing!

Miyama.

You "won't allow him to"? What are you planning on doing?!

I'll start figuring that out now!

Wha...

Shino, you lose.

Big brother!

All right, then, first let's find out where the ashes are, shall we?

Where the ashes are?

But didn't the four of us possess those from the beginning?

That's why that happened to us in Kyoto.

Exactly.

A person's ashes always fall on those for whom that person had feelings.

People Kazuki had feelings for...

Oh, Kazuki, you really are a cheat.

But in that case...

It's not conceivable that anyone other than the four of you possesses any of his ashes.

But there aren't enough ashes.

If they aren't going to come out, then we'll just have to go after them.

What?!

Doctor, the preparations are ready.

Right.

What are you going to do?

I told you, didn't I? I'm going to go searching.

Inside his memory.

By "Kazuki's memory," you mean...

Can you do that?

Yes. Leave it to me.

Big brother...

Are you going to make the same mistake again?

We're not the ones to set the standards by which it's judged as mistake or not mistake.

Do whatever you want.

All right, then, I'll leave the rest in your hands.

Right.

Um, Doctor, what should we...

I'll see you when you get back.

This is...

Hold on a second! What the heck is up with this?!

What is this?

Everyone!

Hey!

Girls, it's dangerous for you to wander too far off!

You can say that, but...

Are you all right?

I am not all right...

I'm not all right...

Doctor, where is this?

The inside of Shikimori's memories.

This is...

Kazuki's...

That's right.

And that is where the ashes headed to.

That's them?

Right. All right, then, let's go.

This is...

Kazuki's memories?

Rin! In the instant I had my eyes off of you two...

Hmm?

Kuriko! I thought you weren't telling me everything!

It couldn't be helped! It was for Kazuki's sake, after all!

And it's in the past now.

That has nothing to do with it!

Oh, it's a different one...

This a Miyama family secret recipe, magic-amplifying soba!

It'll be ready soon, okay?

Right...

Kazuki...

Well, now. You're not so bad yourself, Yuna...

What is the matter, Shikimori? Hurry up and stand up!

You can say that, but...

What in the world is that boy thinking about?!

Kazuki is...

Definitely a boy.

Kazuki, rinse off my back...

No!

Well, why not? Even Kazuki wasn't totally against it.

This is...

Shikimori!

Shikimori! Hold on! Please hold on! Shikimori!

So that time has come at last.

What happened just now...

It couldn't be!

It looks like we'd better hurry.

Let's go!

Kazuki...

Shikimori...

Kazuki...

Kazuki...

The Kazuki I know and the Kazuki I don't, huh?

Hold on, Yamase!

No! I told you that you mustn't use your magic, didn't I?

What's this?

Kazuki has always thought of Yamase...

Kazuki, you remembered...

The stream is dividing into two?

Perhaps that means there are two people who possess the ashes.

Two people?

Well, in any case, we will probably find out if we go there.

It's a promise,

Mr. Greatest Magician in the whole world.

No way!

It's true!

I'm the greatest magician in the world!

Well then...

Can you make this come true?

Well, that's...

But if it were a different wish, then I could do it.

Really?

If you really can do that...

Then I'll...

Become your...

Thank you...

You kept your promise, didn't you?

I'd better keep my promise too.

When I grow up,

I'll become...

Your bride!

Your bride!

I see...

So it's these two, eh?

Let's go back.

Mr. Shikimori should be getting close to his limit soon.

Welcome back, everyone.

So, what came of your trip?

Girls?

Kazuki...

Well, I want to ask you both about this and that, but...

in any case...

What?

Hold on, Kuriko! What are you doing?!

Hold on! Um... Stop!

In any case, I'll save the questions for later.

Right now, making Kazuki human again comes first.

Right.

Yamase...

Please help.

Okay...

That's right, we don't have time!

So let's restore Kazuki's ashes right away and...

Is that really okay?

For you to restore his ashes.

If you restore his remaining ashes, Kazuki Shikimori will go back to being human.

But not all aspects of that are positive.

When all of his ashes are restored, if he returns to being human,

then he will forget everything that has happened up until today.

He will lose all of the memories of his life up until now.

His memories...

Will go away?

That cannot be.

So what you said before was the truth?

I told you, didn't I or did you not believe me?

That is...

Rin...

Kamishiro...

As if we could believe what you say.

Kuriko...

And besides...

Even if that were the truth, if it would save Kazuki,

I would do the same thing Rin did too!

Yuna...

Do you want to try it, then?

You won't get a second chance, though.

I know someone who got his ashes back and was reborn as a human.

Yes, he was able to return to being a human.

But being with someone who has lost all of their memories...

is painful.

I remember all about him, but he's forgotten everything.

The memories inside of me are revived every time I see his face,

and I seek the same things, the same words, but...

He doesn't remember. It doesn't get across.

The him that I know will never again...

Never again return to me...

Shino...

But...

Even still, I want Kazuki to return to being a human.

Even if he loses his memory...

Kazuki is Kazuki!

Miyama...

I...

There is one other way...

Other way?

That's right. I can draw the ashes out of a ghost's body.

Shino!

We're not the ones to judge, right?

If you draw out his ashes, what will happen to Kazuki?

Nothing will change. He'll simply return to being a ghost.

And he'll still have his memories.

However, the ashes will no longer be usable.

He'll never be able to go back to being human.

Exactly.

Why are you saying that now?!

If that's true...

If that's true, you should've said so in the beginning!

You're right. Maybe I should have.

Shikimori! Hold on, Shikimori!

Come, there's very little time left.

Kazuki...

Kamishiro and Kazetsubaki, please help me!

Right!

Kazuki!

Shikimori!

Are you going to restore his ashes or draw them out?

That's obvious!

After all, I promised Kazuki that I'd restore his humanity!

No!

I don't want that.

I don't want Kazuki to forget me.

For Kazuki to further become a Kazuki that I don't know.

I couldn't bear that!

Yamase...

Don't do it.

Why? If at least my portion of the ashes return to Kazuki...

His condition will probably become even more unstable.

That can't be...

The last of the ashes fell into the memories he has of you two.

In other words, it counts as one thing for the both of you.

If you don't both do it at the same time,

then you won't be able to restore the last of Mr. Shikimori's ashes.

What are you going to do with Kazuki Shikimori?

It's all on the two of you.

Will you make him into a ghost who has all of his memories,

or will you return him to being human, at the cost of losing all of his memories?

Yamase...

Chihaya...

The ones who will decide...

Yamase...

Are the two of you!

No...

No...

No...

I don't want to.

No!

We were seen...

I can't believe that Kazuki had that kind of history with Yuna and Chihaya.

More importantly, if we do not hurry, Shikimori is going to disappear!

I know that! But Yamase is...

The last episode of Maburaho is "It Ended"

Kazuki, I'll always be with you!
