Blue Seed (ブルーシード)

Here's Daitetsu Kunikida, from the Terrestrial Administration Center.

Are you here to fight your monsters again?

Not monsters. Aragami.

If my boss hadn't given me a direct order,

I wouldn't be here playing your stupid games.

I deal with human beings, not your so-called "business".

Officer, I don't think you're allowed to smoke on duty.

Damn!

Kaede!

Kaede, can you hear me?

Kaede, please! Please come back!

Ms. Matsudaira!

Director Kunikida!

What's going on?

I'm sorry...

Apologize later! Situation update, now!

Well...

She's already inside.

She went down already?

I only took my eyes off her for a moment.

Ms. Takeuchi is following her, but...

What? Give that to me!

This is Kunikida!

Can you hear me, Kaede?

Don't be a fool! Come back now!

I've been transmitting, but the radio's intermittent.

You know the fate of Japan depends on Kaede!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for yelling.

I'm very upset.

Why must Kaede bear the burden of the fate of Japan all by herself?

Damn!

No, Kaede!

Don't go!

Kaede, please! Please come back!

It's calling me. Calling me.

Kaede!

Please come back with me. Every one's waiting for you.

I'm sorry, Ms. Tak euchi.

Kaede!

Kaede!

I'm sorry, but I need to learn the truth about my destiny.

Kaede...

If something happens to me...

If something happens to me...

What?

Please, take care of the other Kushinada.

The other Kushinada?

Takeuchi, can you hear me? Answer me!

What? What's going on?!

I couldn't make it in time.

On a cold night in January, a strange incident occurred

at a neglected construction site for the underground city project.

Mysterious Tokyo

Take it easy dangerous night

Mysterious Tokyo

Pick me up foxy night game

The shade of the moon is as clear as it can be, inviting the night

The sound of the klaxon showers out, the pulse of the quiet city

Silence, so much more wearisome than loneliness, is a labyrinth

Pulling the body into pleasure

The shining night is a sea of illumination

Blue... the blue time begins to melt

The future floats to the surface ephemerally

Life glitters in the same numbers as the lights, and then is gone

Mysterious Tokyo

Take it easy dangerous night

Mysterious Tokyo

Pick me up foxy night game

Shimane Prefecture in lzumo,

a region famous as the home of many Japanese myths.

The story begins here.

It is February, and one month has passed

since the "incident" at the Tokyo construction site.

Momiji... Momiji...

Grandma...

Don't be so absent minded. You have not finished your duties yet.

I feel as if the trees in the forest are troubled.

Something...

Something is...

It is your blood, the blood of fate, that mak es you feel this way.

Those girls look so happy, but Kaede is...

Sir, I know you raised Kaede as if she was your real daughter.

I'm so sorry.

Let's not bring that up when we've come all the way here to lzumo.

Our top priority now is to protect the other Kushinada.

I'm sorry. But I just feel so helpless.

All right, Takeuchi, can you tell me how our replacements are coming?

Yes, Sir. The new schedule is set to begin working as of today.

I see.

So, this is it?

This is a bad omen.

Good morning, Sir! I...

Where's this guy Kunikida?

Damn, it smells moldy in here.

More bad luck, I'm sure of it.

Are you Ms. Kome?

Kome Sawaguchi, transferring from the Defense Agency to the

Prime Minister's Office, TAC as of today.

So, he drafted me, and he's not even in the office?

Oh, are you all right, young lady?

The worst luck!

Goodbye, Grandma!

I can't believe I felt so troubled earlier. It's so wonderful now.

Of course, I still don't think a young girl lik e me should be stuck

with the duty of climbing a mountain and purifying myself.

Listen, Momiji...

Yes, Grandma. I know just what you'll say, as always.

Listen, Momiji. Your life doesn't belong to you.

It belongs to all the people of Japan.

Don't be tempted by trivial matters.

When the time comes, you may have to sacrifice your life

for the good of the people. Right?

You're right, that's right!

When the time comes. I wonder what she means by that?

Oh, nuts! I'll be late!

Excuse me...

You are the daughter of the Kushinada family, aren't you?

Kushinada? My name's Momiji Fujimiy a.

You're one of the twins born to the Kushinada family 15 years ago.

I'm sorry, but I've come to kill you.

Your elder twin sister is dead.

Elder sister?

Now, it is your turn.

Who the hell are you?

Damn it! How long will you follow me?

What? Mitama?

This is my prize!

If I kill her now, all the Aragami will disappear.

The Kushinada's blood will destroy you, and I will be free at last!

What's the matter?

No power in the daylight?

I think I know who you are, but are you an Aragami?

Yes. If I'm not, you'll be just a murderer.

You are doing a real good job, TAC.

What?!

Damn! Takeuchi!

I know!

I'm glad you're all right.
