00:00The main character was so cool and the plot twist at the end really took me by
00:05surprise. The whole class should read this. I wonder if anyone will...
00:16Someone else borrowed it!
00:30The world is growing up...
00:54The hell? What's going on between you and Nana, bro?
00:58Is that... a philosophical question?
01:02What's going on between any of us? What binds humanity together?
01:06Friendship? Family? Love? We are all adrift at sea.
01:11Hey! Are you listening?!
01:14Crap! I totally wasn't!
01:18It's just a misunderstanding, I promise! He didn't mean anything, I'm so sorry!
01:23Yeah, my bad, bro.
01:25It's fine, but I'm still kind of confused here.
01:28Well, you were crouched on the floor like some kind of weirdo, so I thought you were creeping on Nana or something.
01:35Creeping? Huh?
01:36Do you really think I would invite somebody like that into my home?
01:39You get pretty spacey sometimes, so maybe...
01:42Anyway, his name is Subaru. He's a customer from the pet shop. Now please apologize!
01:49I regret my actions.
01:51It's fine, please get up!
01:53Let's all try this again, shall we?
01:55This is my little brother, Yugo. He's in 11th grade this year.
01:59Nice to meet you, Subaru.
02:02Little brother? Are you kidding me? He's huge!
02:05Oh, right! You needed those scissors! Wait here a sec!
02:16Can I please go home already?
02:19This is awkward.
02:20You two sure seem to get along well.
02:36Yeah, I come here a lot.
02:39Maybe he's a nice guy after all.
02:41Wait, am I just saying that because the cat likes him?
02:44Those scissors were really hiding.
02:47Okay, let's do this.
02:48Do what?
02:49Cut that fluffy keychain off his cat's claw.
02:52Come here, Haru. This'll only take a second.
02:58And now you're free. Much better, right?
03:03I appreciate it.
03:05No prob, anytime.
03:07I should go put on some tea for us.
03:09Haru?
03:11That's a cool name.
03:13Cool? Really?
03:15For a cool cat?
03:19That's a new one.
03:21Scary kitty!
03:22You just have resting scary face, I guess.
03:25Precious kitty.
03:27Nobody seems to be in agreement about Haru.
03:30I guess everyone sees things differently.
03:33I bet Kalase would be surprised.
03:35It's not fair. Stuck at work with no Haru.
03:41All I can think about is your fluffy, woofy fur!
03:44I need loves and snugs!
03:45But never mind all that.
03:47I did what I came here for.
03:49Time to go home.
03:53Wait.
03:55That's the magazine my work is published in.
04:01Oh, this?
04:02It's a fiction magazine called Polaris.
04:05You heard of it?
04:07Well, sort of.
04:09Actually, there's a story in here about a cat you might like.
04:12It reminds me a lot of Haru, now that I think about it.
04:15What the hell is going on right now?
04:17I'm done. I'm getting out of here.
04:19Once he starts talking about that cat story, you can't get him to stop.
04:23In fact, now he's even got me reading it, too.
04:26It's not just a normal cat, though. It's a kitty assassin. Isn't that a cute idea?
04:30I never talked to anyone. How'd I find two people who read my work?
04:35How far have you gotten in it?
04:37Let me see.
04:39I know I should be grateful for readers, and I am.
04:42Oh, right here. The part where the letter arrives at the last.
04:45But this situation is too awkward.
04:47I know.
04:49I can't handle this at all.
04:51I want to talk to you about it. Read faster.
04:52Sorry about this, Subaru. Like I said, he can go all day when it comes to this story.
04:57I really recommend it, though. Do you read much?
05:00Uh, sort of.
05:02Come on. I'm telling you, bro. The cat's awesome.
05:05I've never been able to talk to people, to recommend a book that I love. But this is...
05:13The main guy? He's kind of a loner. He solves all the cases without help from anyone. He's so cool.
05:19Is this... what I've been missing?
05:24Hey, listen.
05:26I should really get going.
05:29Haru.
05:33Thanks. I'll see you later.
05:35Wait! Subaru!
05:44I can't believe I literally ran away.
05:47Subaru!
05:50Okami.
05:52I'm sorry. That was awkward, huh?
05:55No. I mean, I think it was probably my fault.
05:59It's fine. I know my brother can be a bit much.
06:02He's really not a bad kid, I promise.
06:05But when he's talking about the things he likes, he forgets everything else.
06:09No, I get it. I didn't take offense.
06:13If that's the case, great. Because... I was gonna say...
06:20You're welcome to come and visit us anytime.
06:24Haru too, of course.
06:25I never knew. Or more like, I never made an effort to find out.
06:37But... I didn't think my work would mean so much to someone, that it would have such a big place in their lives.
06:43Every book is someone's favorite, I suppose. Everyone's heart has a different wish that it longs for.
06:52The nights have been getting pretty cold lately. But you're nice and warm.
07:05Fate. Family. A place where I belong?
07:10I don't really get any of that stuff. But what I do know, is no matter what, I want to protect him.
07:19I don't care.
07:20I don't care.
07:21I don't care.
07:22I don't care.
07:23I don't care.
07:24I don't care.
07:25I don't care.
07:26I don't care.
07:27I don't care.
07:28I don't care.
07:29I don't care.
07:30I don't care.
07:31I don't care.
07:32I don't care.
07:33Oh, hey.
07:34Let me introduce you.
07:35This guy here is Roku.
07:36He's also lived here since forever.
07:38So he knows all kinds of stuff.
07:42Who are you?
07:44I'm Hachi's big sister.
07:46Thanks for looking out for him.
07:48Ah, I've heard all about you.
07:52I can't back down.
07:54I know it's another cat's territory, but I'm here for my brother.
07:58I see.
08:00You may be young, but you've been through a lot, haven't you?
08:03That look on your face says it all.
08:06I used to live outside myself, so I get it.
08:10But now I got a safe place where I belong.
08:13Looks like you do too.
08:14Safe?
08:15Huh?
08:16Oh, hey!

08:19Yu!

08:21Whoa, that guy is massive!
08:23How can you feel safe here with a monster like him around?
08:27Nothing to worry about.
08:29He's a gentle giant.
08:30How am I supposed to believe that?
08:32Stand back.
08:33I'll show you.
08:34Huh?
08:35Huh?
08:36This is my turf.
08:37I won't let nothing happen to you or Hachi while I'm here.

12:58all right listen up
13:00living out here is not easy but if you learn to hunt and learn to protect yourself then you should
13:05be able to scrape by
13:07just be sure you never let your guard down because a fight could sneak up on you when you least expect it
13:13you there look like you're the biggest of the lot
13:20that means you gotta look after the runts all right
13:24they won't last long out here otherwise
13:28but i don't get it torah why are you
13:31that's miss torah to you sorry miss torah why are you helping us like this
13:37this felt like it after that miss torah taught us everything we needed to know to survive
13:48she told us how to find food and how to hunt she taught us how to run away but also how and when to
13:56fight she taught us about this world our place in it and about our fate it was too complicated for me to
14:05understand but i knew it was important so i remembered every word
14:11i'm gonna find a ton of food today i just know it
14:17there's a yummy smell coming from over there hold it

14:37those beaks and talons are sharp even torah and i steer clear
14:47remember you only get one life so you better take good care of it

15:00right they're gone better look for food someplace else
15:08kuro
