"OTOGI ZOSHI" "Traveler, you must not look back" "Wander on where the wind takes you" "The steps you take will guide you on your way" "Journey on into the unknown" "There's a voice you cannot forget" "Though it may bring you to tears" "You must live with all your might" "Just think of your homeland" "And all your grief will vanish" "And all your grief will vanish Throw old notions by the wayside" "Go, go, until you've slashed through the sunset" "Look up toward those distant memories" "Go, go, until you've smashed through the sunset" "Only one more to go..." "What's going on?" "T aisho!" "Seimei!" "No..." "Mansairaku!" "Seimei's mask had fallen away to reveal the face of none other than Mansairaku." "Entrusted with the hopes of her companions Hikaru now faces the confrontation of her life with Mansairaku." "ACT THIRTEEN:" "HIKARU" "It can't be..." "Why?" "You're to be commended for getting this far, Minamoto no Raikou or rather, Hikaru!" "Mansairaku..." "But why?" "How can you be Seimei?" "The capital shall be reborn." "How can you be Abe no Seimei, Mansairaku?" "Everything and everyone shall be reborn." "You and I as well..." "That's not it!" "The Mansairaku I know would never do such a terrible thing!" "How could you and Seimei have been the same person?" "To imitate an old man, that is the art of Sarugaku dance." "Just like you." "Raikou and Hikaru..." "Those are your two faces, are they not?" "I have two faces as well..." "One Yin, one Yang." "As a Sarugaku dancer, I am called upon to entertain the nobles and as an Onmyoji, I use the information I've gathered to manipulate those same nobles!" "It can't be true!" "The Mansairaku I know would never do such a cruel thing!" "Ripened fruit eventually falls off the tree." "Rotten fruit cannot be allowed to cling, lest the trunk rot as well." "Mansairaku, do you even realize what you're about to do?" "There can be no creation without destruction." "A new vessel is necessary to receive the new world." "Are you insane?" "Take another look with those eyes of yours, Mansairaku!" "The capital, and all its people are suffering now because of you!" "It was you who taught me that the suffering must be saved!" "That is why you and I shall save the capital together!" "What?" "I have long observed this with my own eyes." "No matter how many times a new Emperor was crowned the corrupt politics of the court never changed." "The nobles, the Onmyojis, and the warriors all live for their own glory!" "Even the commoners live a cutthroat existence." "That is the true face of this "Capital of Peace"..." "All the more reason why I want to save the capital!" "Don't you understand that, Mansairaku?" "Just as human life is finite, the lifespan of the capital, too, is finite." "The capital seems to have lived longer than it should have." "How can you be so arrogant?" "At this very moment, the people of the capital are struggling to survive!" "Just listen to them, Mansairaku!" "Please don't cause them any more suffering than you already have!" "Alas, you were too late, Hikaru." "The capital has already passed through its Yin Phase and is now moving into its Yang Phase." "Stop it right now!" "There's nothing you can do at this point." "A barrier shall envelope us once I've intoned my curse." "This will lay the foundation for a great Rebirth..." "In other words, the demise of the capital." "It pleases me that we shall be together when that time comes, Hikaru." "Stop it!" "Please, you've got to stop, Mansairaku!" "Mansairaku, if nothing will stop you from doing this, then..." "Then I will kill you!" "That which is pure is of the Heavens, that which is impure is of the Earth." "Yin and yang merge into that which we call the Universe..." "The Pentacle Chamber shall be placed on the Lotus Pedestal..." "The 28 Constellations form the Three Realms..." "Why?" "Why?" "Water shall reverse itself and conquer Fire and the end of all things shall be seen in the heavens." "Mansairaku..." "How I wish you'd only known me as Hikaru!" "Mansairaku!" "Was that out of kindness?" "The capital cannot be saved by mere kindness." "Stop it, Mansairaku..." "Stop it!" "Give it up, Hikaru." "You've got to give it up!" "There is nothing on Earth you can do now!" "Once I've intoned the curse, all will end!" "Accept that, and wait here for that time to come!" "In that case I'll stop you myself!" "I pray to you, summon the true nature of Suzaku." "Stop it!" "It's no use, Hikaru." "It's not in you to kill me." "You've got to stop, Mansairaku!" "Just do as I say and help lay the foundation for the new world, Hikaru." "Together, with me." "For the sake of my friends my brother and for the people of the capital..." "Mansairaku, I will kill you!" "And I shall save the capital!" "It's over!" "Mansairaku!" "Mansairaku, why?" "You did it, Hikaru." "But a weak thrust like that won't be enough to kill me." "Just one more push." "You've got to push it in deeper, Hikaru." "Mansairaku..." "Why?" "Why are you making me do such a terrible thing?" "Why must I fight you, of all people?" "I am only waging this battle for the sake of my friends, for the sake of my dead brother, for the sake of everyone!" "And yet, why must I fight you?" "Why?" "Tell me why!" "Please tell me why, Mansairaku!" "Why is it that you and I must be enemies in this battle?" "Destiny." "It is destiny." "It is your destiny, and mine." "Destiny?" "You and I were destined to meet, and to create the capital anew that is the fate that you and I share." "But, no..." "My powers alone can accomplish nothing." "Unless you and I join hands in this, there can be no rebirth for the capital." "Then that means, I recovered the Magatamas for..." "Now that you and I and all of the Magatamas are here..." "Only now can Creation begin anew." "If I hadn't recovered them..." "Then, if only I hadn't recovered the Magatamas then none of this would have happened!" "It can't be!" "All those people who suffered and gave up their lives over the Magatamas..." "Then all that I've done until now, what was it for?" "Tenchi nichigetsu sansei sonshin..." "Kyuusei sandal gyokujoshin...." "Kyuu kyuu nyo ritsuryou!" "That's the 5th Pillar of Light!" "Taisho, so you didn't make it in time..." "Kintaro, I bet you're wishing you didn't stay with me here in the capital, huh?" "Hey, I had a lot of fun hanging with you, Sadamitsu!" "Same here, Kintaro!" "I couldn't save it..." "I couldn't save the capital after all..." "Tsuna, Urabe, Sadamitsu, Kintaro, and my brother Raikou..." "Please forgive me..." "It's beyond my control now..." "Hikaru!" "Stop it!" "Hikaru!" "Hikaru..." "Mansairaku..." "Forgive me..." "I think if I just leave everything the way it is..." "I'll have nothing, nothing to lose at all." "Now that you're not here with me under this sky..." "Why should I go on living?" "Tell me why..." "The countless times you showed me kindness..." "The unforgettable words you spoke to me..." "Here in my shattered dreams, I'm still trying to find them somehow." "We hurt each other, we loved each other and took from each other, you and I." "They had yet to see the light, those little wings of yours if only I could have somehow saved them." "Those faraway memories I keep locked inside me..." "Those mistakes I made that I can never erase..." "We were left with wounds that can never be healed, you and I." "Just one word...that word I couldn 't say to you." "Looks like it's over now..." "Hey, how about getting off me now, Kintaro?" "Meanie!" "Well, I guess this isn't the hereafter." "This place got trashed!" "Tsuna..." "Taisho..." "When we're all reincarnated, I hope you'll be our same old T aisho again..." "Lady Minamoto no Hikaru!" "Sadamitsu, where did the Taisho and Tsuna go?" "They went off to this place full of flowers... someplace faraway." "I wanna go there, too!" "No way, you and I belong in this dump of a capital!" "Okay..." "Then let's get something to eat now!" "HEIAN ARC" "HEIAN ARC THE END" "Outside the window, the rain is falling, shutting us in." "If you feel bad about today, then come pick me up." "That's what I want to say, but I can 't..." "The dreams that I wished upon a star are all coming true, one by one." "Yet I just can 't seem to catch up with you." "The dreams that I wished upon a star are all coming true, so..." "I want to get closer to you." "Time goes on, the world has changed." "A new capital has been established far to the east of Heian-Kyo, in T okyo." "Hikaru, Tsuna, Sadamitsu, Urabe, and Kintaro have encountered each other once again." "Across the divide of 1,000 years the wheels of destiny have begun to turn." "Otogi Zoshi Act Fourteen, Tokyo." "Don't miss it!"
