"stop daydreaming!" "Don't compare me to these country bumpkins." "I was born and raised a city girl." "You got me." "["Life I A Series Of Choices"]" "but... that skin." "I get this." "Give me a break." "I don't like killing my own kind. to continue fighting until you die." "The cursed clan." "leave this to me." "You can go." "Are you stupid?" "He'll be tough even with three people." "Gin-san." "I... will protect Kagura-chan." "What are you talking about?" "You'll just get in the way." "Just go!" "Gin-san." "Get out of here." "I'm talking about you!" "Jeez." "right?" "Oi." "Next time we meet... it'll be under the Sun." "Sounds good." "Life is... said to be made of a string of important decisions." "This is the first time I've seen someone clearly pull the Joker." "That guy loses. there won't be a single trace of him left in this world." "You two win." "You're saved..." "I'll turn you both into mince meat." "The loser is you." "We're going to turn you into Arabiki wieners!" "Do it!" "Why don't you fight back?" "Why do you just stand there taking it?" "I don't have the right to kill you." "Until now... to protect Yoshiwara... we judged those who broke the laws." "women who tried to escape from Yoshiwara." "women who were no longer able to attract customers." "I have piled up those burdens." "I can't just abandon these laws and continue to live on peacefully." "Kill me." "But I will buy some time." "You would turn your back on your own and protect the intruders?" "!" "There is no worth in protecting this town." "I became Housen's puppet." "I protected Yoshiwara and its laws." "I couldn't change anything." "believing nothing would change." "I was protecting Hinowa herself." "I've been wielding my sword." "I was not... protecting anything." "What I was protecting... was neither Hinowa nor this town." "It was my own cage." "A cage was placed around Yoshiwara by none other than ourselves." "we silently watched." "We placed a cage around our hearts. we desperately tried to protect that cage." "to protect Hinowa." "They were all excuses." "I used Hinowa." "Nothing has changed." "True enslavement... is when you place a cage around your own heart." "I haven't changed at all since then." "then fight from within your cage... against yourself." "I won't run anymore." "I'll fight to break the cage." "and continue to live your life." "I will stand tall." "Do it!" "I can't do it anymore." "I don't want to! you aren't a coward." "You weren't protecting nothing. us." "The women who tried to escape from Yoshiwara..." "The women who no longer attracted customers... and sheltered us inside the Hyakka... was none other than you!" "I... stole the path of a woman from you." "I've killed the woman in you." "we have already forgotten how to be women. you made the path for us to live as human beings. are the ones that you have been protecting. the Sun is not the only thing shining in the sky." "The Sun and the Moon... are both irreplaceable lights that illuminate this town of darkness!" "Boss?" "!" "The Sun and the Moon... yet you were so far away... I feel like I was able to stand beside you." "The way has been lit." "Yoshiwara..." "Hinowa and Seita..." "I leave them to you." "What's wrong?" "The Arabiki wieners aren't ready yet?" "I'm no match for him!" "Even Kagura-chan is being brushed aside." "for there to be such a gap in ability..." "We don't act on obligation or money." "A Yato only acts... when there's a battlefield that drips with the stench of blood. but not anymore. but it doesn't seem like that's your case." "Could it be to save that little kid?" "Where is he?" "is!" "Brother?" "It couldn't be..." "Stop!" "We finally found him." "Surround him quickly!" "Just... just a little furth" "What're you doing in a place like this?" "Are you possibly looking for your mother?" "Huh?" "What's wrong?" "Are you cold?" "Are you okay?" "come with me." "I'll let you meet her." "With Hinowa." "A-Are you messing with me?" "You aren't on our side." "You're not on Housen's side either." "Who are you?" "I have interest in neither Yoshiwara nor business." "I want to meet her..." "The woman who turned Night King Housen into a coward." "I want to meet her..." "The woman whom all the women of Yoshiwara depend on as their "Sun"." "Oh dear." "It seems like she wasn't one of them." "shall we go see her?" "The most beautiful... most powerful woman in all of Yoshiwara." "I see." "You... now that I think about it... you look like the commander..." "What to do. a comrade's relative." "This goes beyond killing your own kind." "There's no need for concern." "He doesn't think anything of me anyway." "even family." "He's a heartless bastard who even fought his own father and younger sister." "You can add subordinate and master to that list." "It seems we're all in the same boat." "Victims who have been pushed around by that idiot." "huh?" "the younger one needs to pick up his slack." "Move aside." "Stopping the idiotic actions of the older sibling is the duty of the younger one." "Sorry." "Wiping the butts of the higher ups is the duty of the subordinate." "K-Kagura-chan..." "Take this!" "Kagura-chan!" "T-This is... a fight between Yato...!" "To think that a kid who's never been on a proper battlefield would come after me." "At least your instincts are from your father... they're closer to your brother's." "Don't compare me to him." "I won't belittle you." "I recommend you leave. your first-class potential will be ruined." "Or should I get in between and mediate your sibling quarrel?" "I'm telling you not to compare me to you guys." "You guys are swept away by the blood of the Yato and scour the battlefields." "I choose my own battlefields. but with my heart." "I stand on the battlefield to protect what I want. or whoever else..." "I'll crush you! and a younger sister who fights as her heart commands." "it's more like an older brother who follows his blood and a younger sister who fights against it." "It seems an understanding was impossible from the start." "However... you won't beat your stupid brother like that." "a question for you." "A fist that defeats and a fist that kills..." "Which one is heavier?" "The answer is... a kick that kills!" "Destructive power is stronger than brute strength by far." "What?" "A trick question?" "Don't be so stiff." "It was just a quiz." "Didn't you notice?" "you pulled back on your punch. your punch dies before it even reaches me." "You don't want to hurt people." "You don't want to kill people." "It's quite the commendable way of thinking." "that is. that kind of thinking doesn't work on the battlefield. those who hesitate are the first to die. weren't even a match from the outset." "Kagura-chan..." "Let go of Kagura-chan!" "boy." "You fully intended to kill me. too bad." "That one's not there anymore." "Shinpachi!" "another choice." "Which one of you wants to die first?" "Choose!" "Stop it!" "Let go of Shinpachi!" "That's not one of the choices. life is a string of important decisions." "Make sure to pick the best option so you don't regret it." "You..." "You..." "Die!" "Don't be so stiff!" "right?" "!" "I guess it's decided." "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Her movements suddenly..." "What happened to that kid?" "K-Kagura... -chan?" "eh? because of her fear of hurting others..." "In response to her friend's peril... it disappeared along with her sanity." "You've finally awakened." "You beast!" "Kagura-chan!" "I've been waiting for you to appear!" "I've been thinking that having just one arm wasn't enough of a handicap!" "Has your intelligence gone with your sanity?" "you won't be able to attack or defend! are you a little bunny?" "oi." "You have to be kidding me." "I was pretty serious with that last one." "You're going to hurt this old man's feelings." "She's overpowering him!" "An experienced Yato..." "Kagura-chan is..." "Is that..." "Kagura-chan?" "Is that..." "Is that... our Kagura-chan?" "You got me... this is a monster. it seems I was the one who was hesitating." "When I look at you..." "I can't help but see your brother's face. as your instincts command you to." "you're no different from your brother." "you're the same as your brother." "Obey your blood and kill me." "Embrace the Yato and kill me." "The battlefield is the only place we belong." "It's what you have to do to survive on the battlefield. a Yato's duty!" "What do you think you're doing?" "I'm not doing this for you." "I made a promise... with Gin-san!" "That I would protect Kagura-chan!" "I'll..." "Kagura-chan...!" "I'll protect the Kagura-chan we trust! nor the sister of the crazy brother!" "The blunt... cocky... gluttonous... but very kind girl!" "I'll... protect our precious friend!" "I won't let Kagura-chan dirty her hands on the likes of you!" "Kagura-chan!" "Your enemy..." "The one we have to fight isn't this grimy bastard!" "Kagura-chan!" "What a completely naive bunch." "I've told you." "the ones who hesitate to kill... are the first to die." "here's another choice." "To be killed by Housen without being able to kill him... or to be killed while trying to kill Housen... which do you choose?" "What?" "Both end in being killed?" "Don't be so stiff." "It's just a quiz." "Life is made of a string of important decisions." "You should see how far your naive choices take you." "You!" "I told you..." "I... don't like killing my own kind." "there's no such thing as a never ending night." "The time has come for the morning sun to rise on this town." "the Night King should... go to sleep!"
