The Moon goes around the Night
Owing my blessings to the Okami’s divine grace
I was bestowed a child
That I had almost given up on
As a humble expression of gratitude
We offer thee this Yakumo sake
Life comes around, the seal of 8.5
What kind of influence did the interpretation of the Laurants have on the girl?
“Come back to life, come back to life, Kijihiko!”
“Geez, is that what you put on your Ema?”
“This shrine really put in the work for us!”
“You’re right, maybe I should Ema it up for another child? Haha!”
The Moon goes around the Night
A huge line of followers
Visiting to give their thanks
All of them with smiles on their faces
“Sorry ‘bout that, my wife really wanted to Ema it up!” “Don’t worry, we’re Ema-ing it up with the tributes too, hehehe…”
But for some reason
I feel slightly uneasy, and mutter to myself
[This is perfectly fine]...
“Did we really get rid of that virus?” “Who knows? But if we didn’t Ema it up, it would’ve been a lot worse.”
The light harbored by the offered Ema…
The shadow of life to be carried…
Is the authority to twist their endings…
Truly a kind of karma that mere humans can bear?
-Just kidding
I’m not good at these complicated topics!
I sweep…and sweep…and sweep…and sweep…
But there’s seemingly no end to these chores!
I’ll finish them up
Stuff myself to the brim with <sweet and soft magic>[the harmony of sugar and cream]
And sleep blissfully tonight until the morning
With no one interfering!
“Practicing your swings on shrine grounds this late at night?”
Kise!? Kashima!?
Wao!
Long time no see!!
What kind of <cute delinquent acts>[things]
Are <these bad boys>[you two] doing this late at night!?
“Answer me!”
<How uncouth>
To answer my question with a question of your own
<The man…who was once my teacher, as short as it lasted>[You] said it yourself
So are you practicing swings on shrine grounds at night?
You fancy yourself <the legendary baseball player who’s a big deal overseas>[Kijihiko]?
Are you insane?
You can’t play dumb
Don’t underestimate <the Intelligence Agency of [Akitsu Takamain School]>[us]
We won’t let you do whatever you want
To our <precious mentor who means a lot to us now - and always will>
“AaaaaaAAahhrgh!!!”
“Don’t get in my way…”
“Be careful, Take!”
“Right back at ya!”
“No matter…
<My life>[what comes next for me] is already a dead end…”
“But hey…I ain’t on the receiving end of your sword daily…for no reason…”
“The <one I yearn for>...
Is nowhere to be found…”
“His swings are so goddamn slow!”
“Now that’s an idea!”
“Don’t let your guard down, Take!”
“What’s going on?”
“I’ll take the two of you…
To the land of the dead!”
“Amateurs are threatening…because they don’t…adhere to any forms!”
“SHUT UUUUUP!!!!!!”
“Iwanaga-san!?”
“What time do you think it is!?”
“Check-”
“Watch out, Miko!”
“MAAAAAAATE!!!”
“Huuuuuuuh!?”
“Take this!”
What was that man planning to do?
There is no way for us to know now.
The man who fell into the crack between ⛩️orizons - [Sukuna Tsukihito]
His fate remains unknown to this day…
