"You're different." "That is something that makes you attractive." "I'm Kenta Aoki." "Wanna meet again tomorrow?" "Sorry, but I only did this because of what's coming up." "Let's say goodbye now." "Where are you going?" "A place a woman is no longer a woman." "Convent of the Sacred Beast" "The convent is a place only accessible to women." "It is a place where women eternal virginity, and devote their lives to warding off the lusts of men." "They cast off their worldly belongs, their passions, and become wives of the almighty." "It is a haven for women who have been spurned by the world." "Everyone, we have added another lost lamb to our ranks." "When losts lambs looked towards salvation and kneeled down before the lord the lord brings hardship onto that lamb." "We did not become nuns by being forced by someone." "It is our heart... our passion toward faith that has led to us seeking this convent." "Now, allow me to introduce our new friend, Miss Maya Takigawa." "Greet your sisters." "I'm Maya Takigawa." "It is a pleasure to meet you." "As servents of the lord, we must remember to adhere to his laws." "There are about 73 chapters in these laws but the ones to pay the most attention would the sin of adultery, murder, and stealing." "Do you swear to abide by the laws of the lord?" "Yes." "If by any chance you do break his laws, you shall be punished by the lord." "Let me explain our robes." "The white symbolizes purity and the black symbolizes penance." "Only by following the lords laws through penancecan we weak humans can ever hope to become his bride." "This is where you will be sleeping." "You will be with these nuns whose ranks are higher than yours so be sure to mind your manners." "It's a pleasure to meet you." "My lord..." "Please purify my soul..." "Lord... use the whip to punish me!" "My lord!" "Please purify my sinful soul..." "Maya, you're surprised, aren't you?" "It's nothing once you get used to it though." "Everyone makes herself whipped when one feels their will crumbling." "That's why there's a whip placed in every room." "Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows..." "After his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child by the holy spirit." "Then Joseph her husband, being ajust man, and not wanting to make her a public example was minded to divorce her secretly." "But while he thought about these things behold, an angel of the lord appeared to him in a dream, saying..." ""Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife for that which is conceived in her is of the holy spirit." "And she will bring forth a son, and you shall call his name Jesus for he will save his people from their sins." "So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the lord through the prophet, saying:" ""Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a son and they shall call his name Emmanuel which is translated, "God with us."" "Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep did as the angel of the lord commanded him and took to him his wife and did not know her till she had brought forth her firstborn son." "Thou shall not commit adultery." "For one who has looked upon a woman and lusted after her has already commited the act in his mind." "The sin of adultery is the heaviest sin one can commit among the lord's laws." "Even by merely thinking such thoughts one has dirtied their own soul." "As nuns, we must strike to keep both our minds and bodies as pure as possible." "Assistant headmistress, I have a question." "Yes, Mizuki?" "What is it?" "What has the lord Jesus said about the sin of adultery?" "He has said adulterers are like animals that have been brought to earth to damn others into hell." "He says that they shall be punished and be denied the everlasting paradise." "Assistant headmistress, I have a question." "You may speak, Miss Takigawa." "How did we come to be on this world if our parents didn't commit the sin of adultery?" "Such questions are not fit for a convent!" "Bear in mind the Mary was a virgin when she bore Jesus!" "Is such a thing even possible?" "How dare you defile the name of the Virgin Mary!" "But Mary only got knocked up after she got married, right?" "How dare you use such foul language!" "What's the use in arguing?" "I mean, how else can children be born if men and women don't sleep together?" "The lady Mary was a virgin!" "How dare you defile the church!" "Yes!" "We can not allow such activities to go on!" "Assistant headmistress, please tell Miss Ishida to leave at once!" "We refuse to take lessons with such insolent whelps anymore!" "Please have her leave!" "Assistant headmistress..." "Wait!" "Don't judge the entire trainees by the actions of Ishida!" "We all have gathered here due to our strong faith in the lord." "It makes me wonder how women like Miss Ishida came to be here." "I can say the same." "After all, convents are places where the outcasts of society gather together." "I mean, you're not a virgin either, right?" "How dare you!" "That is all for today's lesson!" "I will ask people who disturb the class to leave from now on." "Rememeber that." "Can't sleep?" "Wanna drink?" "Oh, come on." "I'm happy that a girl like you finally joined." "I guess there are girls like you even in here." "All those stuck up girls really tick me off." "I wanna talk down that assistant headmistress ever since I joined." "Miss Ishida, I do know that you like to play pranks but to try to drink whiskey in the middle of the night is inexcusable!" "Man, being in a convent sucks." "It's hard to believe a daughter like you can be borne from such a hard working father and a devout mother." "Sure, he's hard working, but he owns a Pachinko bar and a cabaret." "Besides, she's just my step-mom." "I'm only here because my only other option was the mental institution." "Miss Ishida!" "One must persevere in order to get by god's trials." "The only reason you're here now is because your parents begged me to correct your deliquent behavior." "They paid you handsomely to do so, right?" "Anyway, why don't you tell me who snitched?" "Miss Ishida!" "Stop using such language at once!" "The lord is always watching." "Don't ever offer alcohol to a fellow sister ever again!" "Understand?" "So it's the newbie." "Is the work always this hard?" "Today's a bit special." "But it is more or less the same." "Don't you think it's a bit unfair that we have to do more work than the other sisters because we didn't donate any money?" "We don't get much food... and I don't think my body can take this much longer." "This is good." "It's been years since I had sausages!" "You will now be punished by the lord." "The whip that you see here has been bestowed upon by the lord." "I want you to whip each other 20 times each." "Now I said!" "I want you to whip each other until all your skin is flowing with blood!" "Do it!" "Kaoru...?" "What do you think you're doing?" "Whip her!" "Miss Oka, whip her back!" "All this just for stealing ham!" "?" "I wonder who ratted on them?" "We were the only ones in the storage room." "Who could've...?" "Do you really think that...?" "Yep." "There's a spy in here." "Are you trying to say that I'm the spy?" "I didn't say that." "But still..." "Don't you think it's odd the assistant headmistress is finding so many things out since you joined?" "Janet..." "It's all thanks to you that everything's working as planned." "I'll reward you soon." "Sister..." "Sister..." "Janet..." "Sister..." "There's someone there!" "Sorry for interupting." "Who are you?" "You'll be punished for leaving your post without permission." "I think it'll be you and Janet that should be punished." "Or do you think that lesbian nuns aren't covered in the laws?" "Don't worry." "Lesbians aren't all that uncommon nowadays." "Why don't you give up spying and have fun?" "Please keep this a secret." "Who was the one that told you to dig up dirt on the sisters in training?" "The assistant headmistress." "Oh really?" "The very person that keeps babbling about the holy laws?" "I'll keep your secret but you'll be following my orders from now on." "Please hurry!" "If anyone finds out that you've snuck into the headmistress's room, we'll all be in trouble!" "Auntie, how are you feeling?" "Thanks." "Sorry about this." "It's okay." "It's my turn anyway." "I'm sure the trainees are having a hard time now that I'm gone." "Oh, of course not!" "Everyone's glad that they can sneak in more food to eat!" "Mary..." "Michiko..." "Where did you get this rosary?" "It's my mother's keepsake." "Then you're..." "Yes." "I'm Michiko Shinohara's daughter." "Don't tell the headmistress though." "I came here out of my own free will." "Please, tell me about my mother." "How did she die?" "Where was my father back then?" "I don't know..." "You're mother was a kind, good person." "Damn, the spy caught me." "I guess you can rack up even more brownie points now." "Stop saying things if you don't have any proof." "What did you say?" "If you're so worried, why don't you hurry on back?" "I don't care if they kick me out but I'll take you down first!" "Bitch!" "Don't take me lightly!" "What are you doing!" "?" "Stop!" "Stop it at once!" "Don't you have any shame!" "?" "What would the world think of us if anyone finds out!" "?" "Trying to keep a lid on things will only make it blow up harder." "You be quiet." "I'm putting the both of you into solitary confinement." "Sis!" "Good afternoon." "I brought these for you from the farm." "Thanks." "How is father nowadays?" "He's still sick so the doctor tells him not to work." "With me under the service of god now there's nothing I can do to help but I pray for god's mercy on our family every day." "Sis, you keep changing day by day." "Really?" "It's like I'm talking to a different person." "I was thinking about working after I graduate Jr High but mom asked me to talk to you about coming back." "Dad might die if he doesn't get hospitalized!" "Mom says that 100,000 yen will cover expenses for a while." "Praying all day won't get you any money, wil it!" "?" "Keiko, I can't..." "Headmistress!" "A serious thing has happened!" "What's wrong?" "There's 50,000 yen missing from the safety deposit box." "What did you say?" "It must be one of us that did the deed." "I was thinking that it might be one of the sisters in training, since they were cleaning the floors then." "You mustn't cast such suspicions about." "Just gather them and search them!" "Well?" "Have you found it?" "This is..." "How scanalous!" "How can anyone..." "Vice Headmistress, isn't it also possible for the culprit to be hiding it under her clothes?" "Culprit?" "How dare you talk like a detective!" "Gals, strip." "Let's show them that we have nothing to hide." "Come on, search all you want." "The same goes for the rest of you." "How... how perverse!" "I'm sorry..." "Do you want me to take that off too?" "No, you mustn't!" "Just keep them on!" "Girls, let's go." "I think I'll pass." "Nothing will change even if they don't find anything." "What did you say?" "If someone did steal it, she wouldn't put it where it'd be easily found." "I'm sure she'll confess if given the chance?" "Don't you think so?" "Y... yes..." "Vice Head Mistress, I don't think we'll need to be examined any further." "Very well." "I will keep these dirty pictures for safe keeping." "I will burn them personally." "Priest Takenuma." "Good afternoon." "The Convent of St. Kuroash is an ideal convent that I know follows all the words of the lord to its full." "This is all thanks to your strong faith." "Thank you." "I shall relay my words to the headquarters in Rome." "Is something wrong?" "Priest!" "I sense deep sadness in you." "Do you wish to speak to me?" "Priest...!" "Priest..." "It was me who stole the money of this convent!" "I violated the lord's laws." "My father and mother objected to my idea to be in a convent." "My sister and brother too we were farming just to manage to eat." "My father who eventually understood my wish to serve for Jesus Christ by all means collapsed because of a cerebral hemorrhage." "When I was cleaning the vice headmistress' room I found money on her desk." "Because I was thinking too much about my family I took the money against my betterjudgment." "Priest, please punish me!" "It is so painful everyday to be in the convent even after betraying god!" "Do you ever recall the lord calling upon his followers to hit a sinner with stones?" "I am sure that the lord will have mercy on you." "Priest... this is...?" "Put this back to where it was." "Give the rest to your family." "Thank you!" "Have your troubles eased?" "Yes!" "So all of your pains disappeared?" "Yes!" "...because god has forgiven me!" "However god will never come to you..." "What?" "If you forget your guilt the moment the solution occurs how can you expect god to accept you?" "Can you recall an instance where the lord has appeared personally to save man?" "So why don't you wait?" "So why don't you wait for god to punish you!" "?" "Priest...!" "Perhaps god has given you to me to be his sacrifice!" "Such filth!" "Lord, why do men do such filthy things?" "They're like dogs!" "Hey, Bro!" "How long do we have to wait here?" "Is that Maya girl really coming?" "Of course!" "She contacted me herself, saying she wanted to see me!" "Why would a beautiful girl like that enter a convent?" "Too many foreign movies, maybe?" " Sounds likely, I mean..." "Long time no see." "Bro, is this person the Maya who's a nun?" "Yep, she's Maya and a nun." "You two go someplace else." "So how'd get out?" "There's a game I want you to participate in." "Will you do it?" "For you?" "Anything." "I'll even become a priest!" "Good evening." "Good evening." " Good evening." "She's in here." "I'll keep watch, so take your time." "Let's do it." "All righty." "A woman in her prime in a place like this." "What a waste!" "Let's see if her hips are healthy." "But shouldn't we first..." "No, nevermind that!" "No, your's isn't good enough." "Well then..." "Here we go..." "The lord almighty..." "I'll take you to heaven." "I'm sure it'll be more effective than any prayer." "Who are you?" "I am a pure soul in service of Christ!" "Stop it!" "Please!" "My lord...!" "Yes, I am your lord!" "My lord...!" "Bro, let's switch!" "I'm about to explode!" "Stop it, please!" "Stop it!" "Yes, more!" "Faster!" "Faster!" "Lady Mary...!" "Lady Mary...!" "Now where is it...?" "It's time." "We have to get going before they find you!" "Now!" "Hurry!" "This way!" "Who is it?" "Wait!" "Wait." " This way." "Maya, that was pretty good." "I'm impressed." "I can't believe you managed to sneak in guys into the convent." "Hey she's my type!" "It's nothing." "Come on, let's go!" "Bye bye!" " Bro, hurry!" "Let's go!" "What are you doing there?" "A walk, as you can see." "Have you seen a suspicious group of 3 sisters?" "Let me think..." "Maya, let's head in or we'll be late for our prayers." "Farewell." "Vice Headmistress, what's wrong!" "?" "Vice Headmistress, did someone come in here...?" "There, there." "Tell us what happened." "I tried to resist, but they overpowered me and..." "And?" "Those men took the purity that I've guarded for the last 32 years, 4 months!" "By force!" "Men?" "Did she say men?" "So those suspicious looking sisters were actually men?" "Headmistress!" "Mizuki's been saying that she saw Maya with some odd looking sisters." "Are you sure?" "Yes." "It was dark so I couldn't get a close look, but I'm sure of it." "Call Maya Tagegawa to the Hall of Saints immediately." "We will teach her what the wrath of god is all about!" "The 13th punishment..." "Punish her!" "Punish her!" "Punish her!" "Punish her!" "Punish her!" "It can't be..." "Who do you think you are, Miss Ishida?" "You bitches don't play fair, do you?" "You're no better than criminals." "Miss Ishida..." "She is a betrayer of the church." "She has brought men into this chaste place of women." "What chaste place?" "You're a lesbian, aren't you?" "What!" "?" "How can you accuse me!" "Headmistress, I was the one who brought in the guys." "It was me!" "Is this true?" "Of course." "Why would I lie?" "Punish Matsuko Ishida!" "Everyone!" "Punish her!" " Right!" "Punish her!" "Punish her!" "Punish her!" "Punish her!" "Don't make a fuss!" "You hysteric sisters, I accept this fight." "What's the big deal about a woman sleeping with a guy anyway?" "I know you all want a guy in your heart." "Headmistress!" "What she's saying is a defilement to god!" "Please expel Ishida!" "Expel her!" "She is like a member of a violent organization." "Maya, it's finally becoming interesting." "Miss Ishida, I exile you." "Sure, do what you want." "I don't mind leaving, but you better not take it out on the girls that stay." "If you do, I'll tell all about you guys to the mass media." "Remember that." "That will be all for today." "Headmistress!" "We lack any proof." "Miss Tagegawa, return to your room at once." "Auntie!" "Auntie!" "Miss Maya..." "I'm nearing the day for the lord to come for me." "I wish to tell you about the truth." "You must move to a different convent immediately." "I can still remember that moment clearly." "No, I can't forget it no matter how hard I try." "I was watching it all from the side..." "The sight of a holy woman changing into a demon!" "Michiko was next in line to be the headmistress when she broke one of the holy laws." "I remember our current headmistress looked like a demon punishing Michiko for becoming pregnant." "It took place on Dec. 25." "The night of Christ's birth." "The force of the choken neck caused the child to be born." "I put Michiko's rosary on her baby and with the baby in my arm I walked down to the city." "That child was you." "Not even I know who Michiko slept with." "...and that is all I know." "Maya..." "So it was you." "I can't forgive you." "But Michiko isn't completely without fault." "How could she, the Vice Headmistress, break one of the holy laws and bear a child?" "I did what I did in order to maintain the integrity of the convent..." "I don't want to hear your excuses!" "Maya, I want you to leave this convent tonight." "I want you to keep your memories of your parents pure." "It's still not too late." "Stop messing with me." "What I want to know is who my father is." "Who is it!" "I don't know." "You're lying." "I know that you know everything." "Miss Maya, you mustn't delve any further." "This is not hallowed ground." "Hallowed ground?" "This is your last chance." "Where do you want me to go!" "?" "I'm finally back at the place I was born." "I intend on staying until this rcompletely rotten convent falls apart." "So why don't you have this Maya Takigawa leave?" "She already knows too much." "Then the ceremony we must perform the lord's ceremony." "Priest, the ceremony is not allowed!" "Maya is Michiko Shinohara's daughter!" "Maya is your daughter!" "How horrible..." "The event that took place 18 years ago has come back in clothes of hatred to haunt us!" "The past..." "You back then were fiercely jealous of Michiko Shinohara no, you hated her." "Yes, that's true." "Michiko and I went to the same missionary school, the same college..." "We were baptized together and joined the same convent." "We were together for everything we did." "But she was always better in anything we did." "I hated being compared to her all my life." "After what I did to Michiko, I ran away to study Theology in Rome." "So you were the one that offed Michiko." "Your position right now is proof of that." "Yes..." "I had finally beaten Michiko." "...but only after blooding my fingers." "Priest..." "I hated Michiko for being loved by you." "I couldn't forgive her for even abandoning her vows to be with you." "I was jealous of her as a fellow woman." "Yet I have slept with you as well." "Yes..." "That's true." "But did you ever really love me?" "Love?" "Love is an illusion." "Yet, what was it that kept you alive to this day?" "God." "I'm waiting for God to arrive." "I waited for god to arrive during that hellish hour." "Priest..." "Are you still bitter about Nagasaki?" "God never lifted a finger to do anything about Auschwitz." "Has god ever done anything to help the suffering masses?" "I'm sure that Maya will figure it out eventually." "Your hell is near for your continual commitance of sins." "Hell?" "I want you to perform god's ceremony on Maya Tagegawa." "Why did you call me out here?" "I wanted to apologize." "For these past 18 years, I felt like I was lying on a bed of thorns." "I want to atone for what I did." "I'll tell you about your father." "However..." "I doubt you'll be satisfied with that." "For surely the father and child will burn with hatred with each other!" "Father and child?" "Yes." "Your father is Priest Takenuma." "Priest Takenuma?" "Is this true?" "Are you sure!" "?" "It's all true." "It was Priest Takenuma who ordered me how to treat your mother." "You lie!" "It can't be!" "It's true." "See?" "Look at this unchanging sea." "This is where your mother and the priest she was in love were always going." "They lost control of themselves and yielded to their love while staring at the sea." "I won't turn back." "I'm Natalie Green." "I'm here from Rome to assist the Headmistress for the St. Kuroashi convent." "With me in charge, I won't tolerate any breaking of the rules." "In this convent, I smell a witch, the follower of devil, who tries to lead us astray." "I will find out who this witch is and expose her." "Please don't do anything without consulting me." "And what do you think you can do?" "I know everything there is to know about this convent." "I still am the headmistress here." "The priest has already lost faith in you." "That is the only reason that I was called here." "You will follow my orders from now on." "Isako?" "Are you pregnant?" "Who was it?" "Who is it, Isako?" "The virgin Mary is the only one who can bear a child while being chaste." "So who was it you broke the laws with?" "Confess!" "Stop it!" "It was the priest." "It's the priest's child!" "How is that possible?" "That's horrible!" "I can't believe it!" "So now you try to hide your sin by blaming the priest!" "What does everyone think about this?" "It's unforgivable." "How dare she blame the scrupulous and benevolent priest for her own sins!" "Yes!" "It's true!" "It's all true!" "You lying witch!" "Let's see how faithful you really are." "Prepare the salt water." "Come on, drink it all!" "If you really are faithful to the lord you wouldn't dare dirty the symbol of Jesus Christ." "This is the same technique used in the Tokugawa era to detect hiding Christians!" "Yes, it is." "So if she does dirty the image of Christ, it proves that she is a witch." "How long are they going to keep us here?" "Isako's still not back." "Maybe the punishment's taking a while." "I want everyone who wishes to participate in the punishment of the witch to come with me." "I will view those that don't come as traitors of the church." "We all agreed that finding the witch with everyone together is the best." "Janette..." "Miss Onuzaka..." "Miss Watanabe, Miss Nakagami..." "What are you doing!" "?" "Everyone else too!" "Hurry up!" "Miss Takigawa?" "I'll pass." "What!" "?" "So you admit that you're a heretic?" "And how long do you intend to keep that front up?" "Very well." "Everyone else come with me." "This woman is a witch who blasphemes against god!" "Where's the priest?" "You'll see him soon enough." "Are you going to let Isako Kitano go?" "You feel that sorry for Isako Kitano?" "I don't blame you." "After all, she's suffering the same fate as your mother." "Your father is the one that got her pregnant you know." "You have been born under a cursed star." "You're the result of the cursed fates of the pastor, your mother, and me." "Isako..." "I didn't think the traitor would show herself so easily." "Be kind to those who hate." "Bless those who curse." "Pray for those who speak ill of you." "If someone hits your left cheek, show your right." "If anyone steals your clothes, give him your undergarments as well." "Do onto others as they would do onto you." "Do not hate man." "Do not punish man." "Forgive him..." "Give him..." "The time of the witch's death has come." "You should be thankful that I chose the day of sacred mass to perform this task." "It's a poison that will take you to hell in a mere second." "Now taste your last meal!" "While you burn in hell, the priest and I will have a private mass in his room." "Who are you!" "?" "Michiko Shinohara's daughter..." "Maya." "I'm your daughter." "I bet you don't know me but I've kept you inside my heart for 18 years." "...not knowing that you're a demon." "You had sex with your own daughter!" "You broke every law in your religion as well your daughter's!" "What a fitting "private mass"!" "O Lord..." "O Lord..." "You are now the manifastation of god standing in front of me!" "I don't know about that!" "All I know that is my mother suffered alone 18 years ago." "You should suffer that same pain!" "That is my lesson for this private mass." "Lord..." "I..." "I can finally see you." "How ruthless you can be..." "Lord you have finally..." "Translated by Ex-S Woo Subtitled and Translated by Cannibal King Resynced by TK"
